Beautiful Norah,
Soft bells are ringing,
Bright birds are singing
How l adore you;
Breezes are murmuring,
FlOwrets are whispering,
He and believe them
Beside Of my soul.
For they have heard me
Bitterly signing,
When lay my crushed hopes
Painfully dying,
Kindly they rendered
Sweet cOnsolatiOn,
Ger my wild passion
WELDING control.
As Zee nights shadows
From earth's fringed meadows
At the first warning
OF the fair morning,
SO fed the storm clouds
Surging around me,
At thy commanding
Vanished they all.
Soon az thy dark eyes
LOOked-on me Ioudly,
And breathed Thy dear lips
81 love thee only"
Robed in new splendor,
Happy and tender,
There came my lost peace
Back ct my call.

Stand from under Unless all signs fail, the
siege Of Fort Sumter, 10 which events for up

about TO commence. Gen. Beauregard openly
proclaims il, and there is certain kind o. nc
tiyity Observable at oil hours, in and abol, bis
quarters, that plainly indicates that the intention
is to "phy 10 keep No new incident has oc-
CURED, but state Of tbings prevails like that
which precedes the storm. The city wears an

sympathzes. That an extraordinary event it I'M

give an intelligent answer TO these questions. IL
must be confessed, however, that ii there are

was my luck lately TO hold brief con-
versation with an officer now in the fort, and in
reply 10 the question put 10 him, he SAID,
" Our guns as we shall serve them, ought to be
able to dcmolish anything the Carollnans have
constructed" | am assured, also, that the
fort itself is in as complete condition for the
contest as it could well be. The guns are all IN
their places. Every contingency has been pro-
yided for, SO far as the limited number in the
fort could do it; and in fact, little remains UNI
done. There are knOua b. be one hundred and
thirty men inside the fort, including the sixty
workmen. When the tug Of war comes, they all
will be soldiers, ready and earnest in the per-
Torrance of any duty placed upon them. The
heaviest guns may be well served by i've men OF
each, and even three can do it. Say fifty men
are kept at the guns, the number would keep up
continuous fire from ten guns. There will be
no shots thrown away. The principal points Of
interest will be Cummings Point and Fort Moul-
