From Montgomery.
[special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Montgomery, Ala., ">April , 1861.
The Government of the Confederate States having proceeded, upon just grounds, to the extremity of attacking Fort Sumter, the liveliest feelings of delight are manifested here at the victorious and bloodless conquest.--Justice has at last triumphed, and now there is no longer a foot of territory belonging to the heroic State of South Carolina--"the home of the brave" --in the possession of a Government foreign to her soil and its interests.
The false, pretences and base artifices practiced by Lincoln and his Cabinet in regard to Sumter, availed them but little else than the infliction of fresh disgrace upon an Administration which, while sending over the country the most positive assurances of its intention to evacuate the fort, had in employment a set of hypocritical emissaries, like the pacific Mr. Fox, prowling about Charleston in the guise of officers and gentlemen, but whose real object, it now appears, was to concert a plan for the reinforcement of the fort.--The Administration here, knowing it was the intention of the Black Republicans to reinforce and provision it, could pursue no other course than the one so nobly resolved on.--The Secretary of War, by and with the advice of the President and Cabinet, gave the order to the gallant and brave Beauregard, and immediately the order was executed — the work accomplished.
Paymaster Chambers arrived in this city on Saturday last, from Pensacola, and says Fort Pickens was certainly reinforced, by the addition of a large body of men, on Friday night.
Between six and seven thousand men now surround the fortification, and all eyes are watching, with painful interest, for the bloody beginning.
The ladies of Pensacola (God bless 'em) were engaged all day yesterday (Sunday) in making bags for sand, to afford protection to our brave men, many of whom, I fear, will be made to bite the dust, by the grim fortress.
On Saturday or Monday next, I predict the fight will begin.
The appointment of the gallant Virginian, R. A. Pryor, to Gen. Beauregard's Staff, gives great delight to his admirers here.
His arrival is expected in this city in a day or two.
The citizens are preparing to honor him and the "Old Dominion" with an enthusiastic reception.
It is believed in high circles here that Maj. Anderson will now tender his services to the Army of the Confederate States.
The Lady of the "White House," Mrs. Davis, arrived in Montgomery to-day, from Mobile, and is temporarily sojourning at the Exchange Hotel.
