I know the fact that Mr. Fox, of the U. S. Navy, after obtaining permission from me, upon the express guarantee of a former gallant associate with the navy, to visit Major Anderson "for sacrifice purposes," Manned the pretended at attempt to relieve and reinforce the garrison by a fleet, and that Major Anderson protested grains; I now believe that it was all a scheme, and that Fox's disgraceful expedition was gotten up, in concert with Mr. Lincoln, merely to delude the Northern public into the belief that they intended to sustain and protect Major Anderson, when, in fact, according to the article now published for the first time, they decided to do no such thing, and acted with the deliberate intention to let the garrison perish, that they might thereby excite

d revenge. For the purpose of directly proving the motives and impulses of the United States Government in the inauguration of this war, it is only necessary to make several extracts from the article in question, as they will serve also to direct the special attention of the public to those portions which most vividly prove the unhallowed purposes of President Lincoln and his advisers. One of the chief ends of the article seems to have been the proof of treason on the part of President Buchanan, and through all of it runs the oft-repeated "alternative" left them by him, of "permitting Major Anderson and his command to starve within fifteen days, or of ignominiously abandoning it to a nest of traitors," &c. This " alternative" is dwelt upon as if to direct special attention to it; and this very "alternative" proves, above all the rest, the purpose which they had in view when they adopted their final policy. It is argued, and very elaborately, too, that the purpose of Presiden

I have every reason, from information reserved by me in the most confidential manner not forbidding publication, however,) and through one very near the most intimate counsels of the President of the United States, induce me to believe that the following article was submitted, as a proof sheet, to Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet; that a proclamation, in conformity with its general views, was to be issued; and that a change in the decision of the Cabinet was made in one night, when exactly the contrary course was adopted. It is asserted in this article, which, in all probability, is a proof-sheet from a confidential New York paper,) that of the President desired to excite and madden the whole North to a war of extermination against slavery, and in favor of the absolute plunder and conquest of the South, he had only to resolve that Major Anderson an

on and his command were forced to become liable as victims to fanaticism; Fort Sumter was wrapt in flames; and yet, forsooth, they tell us that the only man who could have prevented it was "resolved to discharge his duty to humanity." and that his purpose was "peace"--his aversion "war." His "purpose" was changed, and he resolved to bring on this unhallowed war. It is a Government actuated with these feelings that we are to defend ourselves against; it is this kind of war, then, that the people of the South are to meet; and under these circumstances it becomes my duty to publish the article in question for the information of the people of the Confederate States, and for the cool and unbiased contemplation of the civilized world. A war thus inaugurated — from such motives and under such circumstances — surely can never meet with the favor of Heaven. A people educated and trained up to constitutional liberty can never, for any length of time, sustain such a war. F. W. Pickens
