(From the Richmond Whig } Every iran should contribute equaily of hi means and his services tothe country; and that uli should go into the field who cannot better eerve the cruse in some other way. inaprop si- tion broad enonghto meet the approhation of every one. Whois to decice the merits of eat ind:vidual case as to his appropriate sphere to discharge this duty ? Cara score of irres pousi- ble clerks astembie at the Capitol, exposed to the influences of favoritisms and of corruption, decide these cases for all parts of the country beiter than the reprecentatives of each section? Shall the tenure of the “detail” be dependent upon the subserviency, the sycophancy, the ob- #quicusness of the recipient to this central court, instead of upon his merits! oes the power “ toraise armies’ imply armies for the fleld; or does it include armies of mechanics, ners, doctors, preachers, and all the vari- cus callings ot purely domestic economy of tha country ! And are all these throughout the ex- tent ot our country to be passed upoa by some adventurer of a clerk—a Jew, a foreigner, per- haps a Yankee. or a renegade from the field— instead of the responsible reprecentatives of the people ? We have heretofore given our virws iuliy upon the substitnte question. We see it sfaied by one of our city cotemporaries that many interested parties have employed coun- sel, should the Senate pase the bill before them, to test whether it is an unwarrantuble and ua- constitutional breach of faith. Such we re- eard it, The Cause of the Fire at Sumter The Charleston Courier has the following account of the recent explosion at Sumter, by which 11 men were killed and 41 wounded: From the official report it appears that a emul] magazine in the southwest angle of the fort, containing about 150 pounds of powder end a quantity cf smallarms and other am- munition, exploded about 9% o'clock Friday morning. The explosion ignited all the mate- rials ip the room attached, killing or wound- ing all thoce in the immediate vicinity. The wounded were burned with greater or less severity. The passages were instantly filled with dense volumes of smoke, introduced by & blast of great strength. This prevented any prolorged or successful attempt to exungursa2 the fire. A bout from the navy, with asupply of water buckets, was promptly sent to the as- sistance of the garrison, and rendered all the aid in their power. The behavior of the gar- rison under their trying circumstances da serves the highest credit. Mr. W R. Oatheart, telegraph operetor, whose adjoining quarters were completely enveloped, on attempting to make his way out was knocked down from suffocation, but managed afterward to return and secure his instruments. &# The sailors of the vessels in Charleston harbor kept Christmas in jolly style; having been sny plied with turkeys and other er: ble articles fromthe North.
