Majer Anderson and his comrades, after a gallant struggle of some forty hours’ duration, in which he sustaiuel 4 heavy «nd coutinuons fire from the batteries 0! the secessionists, that not only greatly damaged the fort, but also set on fire the wooden structures within it, strack his flag and surrendered to the revolutionists. It is stated positively however that none of the officers of the garrison were wounded; neither were any of the Curolinians killed. Five of the garrison of Fort Sumter were wounded. The fleet off the harbor took no part in the conflict. Major Anderson and his men were conveyed to Morris Island, aud subsequently Major Anderson proceeded to Charleston, where he is the guest of General Beauregard. Our telegraphic reports of the conflict, which we have reason to believe are accurate, may be found in to-day‘s paper. The excitement among commercial men yester- day was more intense than ever. Qn the Corn Ex:hange, at the Merchants’ Exchange, in Wall street, at the corners of the streets, und at the dining saloons, nothing else of moment was talked about but Charleston and Fort Samter. Mer- chants were so much absorbed about the war pews that it seemed difficult for them to attend to business. When ove inquired of ancther about the market for cottua, “Cotvon be hanged,” he would exclaim, “whut is the last news from Charleston?” And when apother would ask of a shipowner about freighta, “Ler freights go to Aalifax. Has the fleet arrived off Crarieston?!’ Such seemed to be the effect of the war news upon many of our com: mercial men. Fears were expressed for the eafety of the steamitugs sent to Charieston, as they were well down with coal, and bad to encounter the whole force of the recent gale, They were said to be inevured at four per ceut per month. The Savan- pah steamer Flond« postponed sailing until nine o'clock this morning on account of the inclement weather yesterday. The steamrhips New York, Kangaroo and John Be'l, which should bave sailed yesterday for Europe, were detained uatil six o'clock this morn- ing, iu order to carry out accounts of the conflict at Charieston. The Hemaup, containing the latest news, will be despatched by each of these vessels. The Commi-siouers appointed by the Virginia Biate Convention to wait apon the President and ase+rtain hia policy with reference to the perilous condition of affairs, had @ formal interview with Mr. Lincoln yesterday. The Wresident referred them to his ineugural address for an exposition of his policy. He furthermore stated that he in- tended, if possible, to collect the revenue and exe- oute the laws, He did not intend to invade any State or community, but at the same time he as- sured the Commissioners Uat if the secesionists had made war for the purpose of driving the govern- ment from the possession of its property, he should not only do his utmost to hoid all the forts now in possession of the government, but would speedily proceed to retake those unlawfully al- ready seized. The steamer Philadelphia has been chartered by government. She is moored at pier No. 50, foot of Morton street, where, for the past two deys, she has been tuking in provisions and cloth ing, ¢videutly for the garrison at Fort Pickens, after which, it is probable, she will proceed to Texas with trvops and camp equipages, ‘The Legislature at Albany did not bring its ses- sion to a cl&se yesterday, #8 was anticipated, the concurrent re-oration for an adjourument passed dy the Senate having been delayed in that body on Friday might till too tate for the Assembly to take sevion on it in time.

The installation of Con- gress, the arrival of General Paez, and last, but not leat, the Opera under the control of Mme. Corte- si, with Musiani, Amodio and brother, Nani, &c., made the capital very lively. An anonymous oo- partnership uf amateurs had insured one thousand dollars for each performance of the troupe.

One set of resolutions confirm the action of the General Conference in taking stronger anti-slavery ground, while the other affirmy the opinion expressed by the bishops, that the “new chapter” on slavery had no statutory force, and the action of the Buffalo Conference imposed no new terms of membership. The sales of cotton yesterday were confined to some 500 9 600 bales, in lots, closing tamely at 1250. for mid- ditng uplands. The market for breadstuifs was leas active, while prices were without change of importance. Pork was quiet and prices unchanged. There was very Aittle coing in sugar, coffee or freight The War Begun—Dissolution of the Union Consummated. Through the events of the last few days, the last blow has been given to the fabric of freedom, raised at such cost by the fathers of the republic. Civil war has put an end toa confederacy which had existed for three-quarters of a century, and the constitution of 1789, bas been replaced by military govern- wents. The time tor argument has ceased, and the appeal that has been made to arms, pre- cludes the possibility of foretelling what may be the issue of ths present melancholy crisis. It can scarcely be doubted that both North and South will at once proceed to adopt such ulterior measures, as their respective means al- ‘ow of. Fort Pickens will be reinforced immedi- ately, and toe result of operations, in the bay of Pensacola, will be known ina few days. Vir- emia is on the eve of secession; her example will be followed by other border States; atid two sections, the one containing eighteen mil- lions, and the other twelve millions of inhabi- ‘ante, will be arrayed against each other in hos- ‘lity. The recruitments that have recently ‘uken place at Washington, show that an in- vasion of the District of Columbia is dreaded, and it is not improbable that the theatre of war may be transterred te that quarter. 3 It is to be feared, in times of such excite- ment, that neither the Washington nor the Montgomery government will contain them- selves within the boundaries of law. Each will assemble as many troops as it can, and will operate where it can do the greatest amount of injury to the other. Every advan- ‘age of position and circumstance will be «vailed of, and, little by little, the entire and will resound with the din of arms. Nevertheless, the slave insurrections at the “vuth. which have been counted on by North- rn partisans, will scarcely take place; nor will he people of the non slaveholding States have cause to fear the riots that have been predicted by the politicians of the South. War is not a ume tor such outbreaks; and, wese they to ake place, they would be easily suppressed ry Jocal authorities, who will be unusually vigilant where so vast interests are a; stake. Moyeover, the rurplus population of ineon- oiaries, deeperadoes and adventurers will be drained off from both sections, by the exi- geucies of the period. It is imporsible for any haman being to fore- tell how the war which has begun willend. It way be difficult, for some time, to do mote than chronicle the passing events of the de- vlorable contest that is waging. The great Arbiver of nations can alone decide what its final issue wiil be. Organization or Anwtes Norra anp Sourn.— Students of modern history will recollect that during the great warsin which the Christian Powers have been engaged in the last century, the commanders on either side have managed so as to remove the scene of practical opera- tions either to the high seas or to some point remote from the centres of trade and industry Maléog war now-a-days is an expensive opera- tion, and some must be free to work in order to supply the material for those who fight. The war upon which we have just entered will be. in all probability, chiefly a naval combat, aad in that point of view the North has the advan- tage in men, munitions and ships. The navy of be United States, such as it is, belongs to the North. The army and marine corps are, we presume, with exceptions, loyal to the federal government. The States will proceed immediately to arm and equip a very large volunteer force, no leas than one bundred thousand men being need- ed for the defence of Washington. In the South there is no lack of fighting material. The army of the Confederate States is as well officered, but not so well equipped, as that of the federal government. The South has no navy worth mentioning, and must provide for one. Likewire, an army must be equipped for actual duty in the field—not guard mounting and lounging in garrison. The cost of all this will be enormous. To maintain our army and Davy in time of peace requires a yearly expea- ditnre of nearly twenty five millions of dollara. To maintain two war fleets and two war armies wil) cost as much as two hur dred million dollars: As there is no poison without its antidote, so this very war, Which is so deplorable and so entirely absurd and uwonecessary, will enrich thousands of mechanics and traders who build and fit out ships or furnish army and navy supplies. Ail branches of trade which bear directly upon the speciality above referred to will be immensely stimulated, and, as a natural consequence, business of all kinds will be brick. So long a6 the scene of military and naval operations is in the South, New York city will be a central poict from which the troops and ships of the federal government will be fitted out and despatched. And as there is no danger that martial law will be proclaimed in the commercial metropolis, just at present the war in the South will be beneficial, pectiniarily, to the Empire City. ExrieyMent For THE IpLe.—All the loafers, vagrants aud rowdies in our large cities will now find something to do, and even those who are industrious, but out of employment, will get work if they feel icclined to brave the dangers and bardsbips of a soldier’s life, rather than re- main inactive and in want. Owing to the de. struction of all kinds of business, caused by the election of Mr. Lincoln, there are thousands upon thonrands destitute in New York, Phila delphia, Boston and other cities on the North- ern seaboard, who will gladly accept the “bounty” and the pittance per day allowed to soldiers in the American army. There will bo no great difficulty, therefore, for the agents of either the United States or Confederate Stater to enlist as many men as they have money to employ, There is no lack of fighting men req.

Hsving been bought and paid for, and haviog tua a good, long and plentiful feed at the public crib, he must stand aside. We are in the midst of great revolution now, and all our old beggarly spoils parties and spoils politicians mast go to the wall. APPREHENSIONS OF AN ATTACK ON WASHING: tox.—Now that war is fairly begun ia, South Carolina, Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet are alarmed about the danger of an assault upoo Washington, as Mr. Walker, the Secretary ot War at Montgomery, is reported to have said that the Southern confederacy would be in possession of the Capitol before tbe lst of May, and as President Davis has called for twenty- five thousand men, whose destination is sup- posed to be Washington. The requisition for troops made by Mr. Lincoln on the Governor of Pennsylvania shows that his fears have been roused. " As yet there has been but little damage done at Charleston, almost as listle loss of life as in a battle in Mexico or Peru. But before’ the war is ended many lives will be sacrificed, and blood will flow as copiously as itdid in the civil wars ia England. The bloody scene wil! be chiefly in and around Washington, That will be the debateable ground, for possession of the seat of government; and while President Davis will send an army to drive President Lincoln out of it, the latter will call upon the North for help. Virginia will probably secede immediatly, without waiting to go torouge forms, and wii] unite her arms with those of the Confederate States. Other border slave States will probably mingle ia the strife on the same side. Lincoln, in distress, will summon to bis aid the militia of Ohio, New York, Lli- nois, and other republican States of the North west, as he has already called on the State troops of Pennsylvania. The fighting, therefore, will be of the most terrible deecription—close, and hand to hand, with rifle,aad musket and eword aad bayonet; not with cannon, at lopg range, by whicd “nobody is hart.” Both srmies will be of the same race, will have equal pluck, and contend not op)y with their ordinary flerceness, bat | with the additional fury which consauguinity ever lends to tbe battles of brothers.

Where ia our Christianity, our civilization, our beanti- ful system of States and rections, late united and prosperous and happy! All involved in a horrid civil war. Where is this to end? In a republican system like that of Mexico and Central and South America, or in an imperial government like that of Russia or Louis Na- poleon?t Who can answer? Pveute Meetre to Frows Down Cry, Wan— The leading merchants, traders and profession- al men of the city of New York intend to hold a privaté preliminary meeting to-morrow, pre- peratory to a grand mass meeting, to be held in the Park some day during this week, to de- clare in favor of peace and against civil war and coercion, This will probably be one of the greatest meetings ever held in this city, and its effect on the government at Warhiagtou and the government at Montgomery is expected to be very decided. Goop News ror tHe Fanatict.—The gad cetestrophe now progressing in Charleston harbor will prove a subject of great rejoicing, no doubt, to the Duchess of Sutheriand and the abolitionists of New England.
