due to Col. Baird Smith, the Chief Engineer, and to
Capt A. Taylor, the director of the attack. On this
latter officer, in fact lin consequence of the Chief
Engineer being wounded), devolved the entire super
intendence of the siege works; and his energy and
activity will doubtless meet with their due reward
Throughout the operations he seemed tn be omn
present and to bear charmed life, for he escaped
without wound. The plan of the attack was bold
and skilful; the nature of the enemy we we're
contending with was exactly appreciated, and
our plans shaped accordingly. Pandy can
fight well behind cover, but here he was
outmanRuvred-his attention being diverted
from the real point of attack till the last and
then the cover which might have proved such se-
rious obstacle to us was seized ut the right moment
without loss, and all its advantages turned against
him. With plenty of skilled workmen the siege
works might have been more speedily constructed,
but with the wretched means at our disposal the
wonder il that much was done with 50 little loss.

In both the strength Of the Notifications was as
nothng-it was the proportion of besieged to be-
siegers, the magnitude of the arsenal inside and the
impossibility of thorough investment that consti
tuted the real strength of the place. in fact neither
were, properly speaking sieges, but rather attacks
on an army in strongly intrcnched position

MAssAcnUsETTs.-An amendment of the
constitution of Massachusetts,, which had been
propounded by the Legislature, was voted on
by the people, on the first inst. The amend
ment is, "No person shall be allowed to vote,
or be eligible to any office, who cannot read
the constitution of the State in the English
language, and write his name legibly." Pro-
vided the same shall not apply to persons who
are prevented by some physical disability
from complying with its acquisitions. The
telegraph reports that the vote was very small
in Boston, but the majority for the reading
and writing amendment was over 5000. 1t
is supposed to have been carried throughout
the State.

FOUNDER in Philadelphia. The aduiterer was
so greedy for the money that he instantly
got it cashed. The check turned out to be q
forgery, and the donation an imposition; but
before the trick was discovered he had spent
the money and could not return it, and the
friends who had advanced it, were lett in the

~ The decree of the L. 5. District Court
in Wisconsin, against Booth, the editor of an
abolition paper, for resisting the execution of
the Fugitive Slave Law at Milwaukee, has
never been executed. 1t remains a nullity.
The Marshal of the United States proceeded,
under the mandate of the Court, to seize upon
the printing materials Of the defendant, out
of which to make the money. This was re-
sisted by the Sheriff, under pretext that the
same property was in his custody, and his
force was sufficient to prevent the execution
of the order of the United States Court, nol
was it executed. The Sheriff still holds it
and deties the Marshal.

cent gives an account of the strange death of
n young man, named Carrier:
He was with his father in their garden on
the river bank, and never in his life appeared
TO be in better health and mental condition
than just then. He was talking with his
father, when suddenly he stopped, drew him
mement. All at once be uttered piercing
scream, ran to the river, plunged in head
foremost, and was drowned before assistance
could reach him. His father pursued him as
fast al he could, but the unhappy young man
was too fleet for him. No cause could be as
signed for the wild act, other than that Of
sudden and inexpicable disarrangement OF
the heart or brain.

negro was driven from the boat. lie walked

hocus pocus, had been persuaded by this lus-
ty negro to desert her husband and live witt
