enty five miles southwest of Charleston, Tt is
teen miles from the sea, ana has spacious harbor.
We are informed that there are three batteries de-
Tending the situation, and that the strongest one
has yet TO be passed BY the Yankee feet, With |
twenty -four heavily armed vessels, they may, be |
able TO silence the batteries and effect landing
but what then? The mere possession of the place
will do them no good, and, if they were to make
an ADVANCE we have nc doubt Of the ability of
friends to repel them. There are already six |
| thousand Gonfaderates there, according to the |
dispatch and BY this time reinforc ements are no
doubt pouring in from all parts Of Georgia and
Carolina Hthere is any place On earth where a
South carolinian will fight more desperately than
another, it j. on his own soil and especially when

does The Yankee. I'll s.oss5sfS} ID fsi z9se.

strangers is comparatively in excess Of previous
years for the amount of business going On. %&5

New Orleans Price Current-its statement of the
cotton crop for the last year. This is the first att
