» >{Plliu time we write (the I'-lb ;a*t.) oil rift seem to t e turned toward* Fort Bum- « fr, with the expectation that stirring : afipues are about to bo enacted there. The l^neral impression has been, Tor some Weeks pis sed, that that Fort would tie f-vacoated ere tidm; and though such a do iislou has no. 'er been officially announce', .h a matter uf course, mil there is pood reason to believe that sacb was the intention of Hie Administration, if it could have been dun:, without disgrace to tiio governwent ; though we pri-.- Jmo the A rhwrnirtra*htic»n intended tut.il.-- i'- o*u way and time for it. And it is contiduuily asserted (with what authority we, cannot say) that the President bad nude arrangements for the withdrawal of Major An.i-r» Jii's command. t but that the southerq authorities would not permit' it, only a* an unconditional surrender. which could Becer be submitted to by our government, unless compelled to do m.

' But a short time since, Maj. Andersop sent l.ii-ui. Talbot, with despatches to the - government at Washington ; and alter due ennsnllation, he was returned, with dis- ; patches to Auden-oii, the purport of .which, ' ns ret, are unknown to the public ; but it appears certain that he called on Gov. Picfcqn*. ut Chut lesion and it is statud on a'ly good authority, that he a<ked whether a sVnsll. unarmed vessel, with pro.visian* for Bumpier, wauld be permitted to enter ilie harbor, without molestation ; which the (jp'erttnr it said.to hate refused, and liketfk* refused Lieut. Talbot scce-s to furt io nc Muj. Audm-on. Consequently, l.b-ot.

In the evening the wildest excitement prevailed ; but tho huurs of i eight, nine, ten and »o on. to two the next j morning, passed, but no attack was made. . so far as the telegraph reported up to that j hour. It was also reported that I avis had ' sent orders not to fire on any vessel that! 1 might simply bring provisions ; which it is j laid, is all thai .our Government demands -t present. 'I his report, however, is hardly nroha'de. It was also reported that negotiations were to It* opened the next duya ■ between Hen.

The rioulWru commissioners, who have ] I been in Wasuiti^taa (or some timd' past. have closed their labor*. atTtf lefi for Mont- - gomery, in disgust, ou ThuraJuv last. They i utter strong complaint* against the Administretiuii, accu-ing it of the most gross j perfidy, in holding out the idea that Fort , i-riumpler would b« evacuated, and thst eve»' : ry effort would be- made fur peace ; but j they do not protend that they ever had r.ny | three* assurance of the evacuation of Suui|»ter, but only second hand.

And if it rvvr j intended to evacuate that fort, it would do ; i: in iu own lime and way : and if it could not send provisions peaceably, while the ! rebels Were making every wariiko dhmonstraiion. it would hardly fuel bound to carry out its former intentions.
