Fikkdisii Joy.?The Chicago Tribune, the most influential paper in the Northwest, thus shrieks its joy over the late fire in Charleston : MIt was there that the rebellion was hatched* There the first gun was fired to disturb the harmony and dissever the tics of the nation.? Sumter fell. By that act the couutry was plunged into a war, and brothers arrayed against brothers in the field. Already throughout the land widows and orphans are the innocent sufferers of this unholy rebellion. These mourners arc in our own city, and in all the North, and the war has only fairly begun." It adds that "the consequences may be appalling, but they arc just," being u llcaven-scnt and "Heaven-directed." Approaching Recognition of the South. The following is an extract from a Paris letter, dated December 9, in the N. Y. Tribune : " It is worse than falsehood to deny what 1 know is worse than patriotic to admit, but what it is the disagreeable duty of a reporter to state, this passionately disputed, but reasonably indisputable fact, that the recognition of the O. S. A. as an existing nation, by England and France, is rapidly approaching diplomatic record." STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. To the Managers of Elections for Kershaw District.
