played game Of the hottest fire.
The excitement in the community is indescri-
bable. With the very first boom of the gun thou
sands rushed from their beds to the harbor
front, and all day every available place
has been thronged by ladies and gentlemen,
viewing the solemn spectacle through their
glasses. Most of these have relatives in the Sc
veral fortifcations, and many fearful eye at
tested the anxious affection Of the mother, wife
and sister, but not murmur came from single
individual.
The spirit Of patriotism is as sincere as it is
universal. Five thousand ladies stand ready to-
day to respond to any sacrifice that may be re-
quired of them.
The brilliant and patriotic conduct Of Major
Anderson speaks for Itself, and silences the at
tacks lately made atthe North upon his character

been kept up. No information has been received
from the seaboard yet.
The military are under arms and the whole of

spectators.
The firing has continued all day without inter.

OF the nineteen batteries in position only seven

Mr.. Fox, who had been allowed to visit Major
Anderson on the pledge that his purpose was
pacific, employed his opportunity to devise
plan for supplying the fort by force, and that this
plan had been adopted by the Washington 60.

Captain r. s. Parker brings dispatches from the
Floating Battery stating that up to this time only
two have been wounded on Sullivan's Island. He
had to row through Major Anderson's warmest
fire in a small boat.

Sumter.

ment, from Mount Pleasant, which made large
hole in the parapet.
Quite number have been struck by spent pieces
of shell and knocked down, but none hurt serious
ly. Many fragments of these missiles are already
circulating in the city.
The range is more perfect than in the morning,
and every shot from the land tells.
Three ships are visible in the ofllng, and 1t is be-
lieyed an attempt will be made tonight to throw
reinforcements into Fort Sumter in small boats.
1t is also thought, from the regular and frequent
firing Of Major Anderson, that he has much
largcs force Of men than was supposed. At any
rate, he is fighting bravely.
There have been two rain storms during the day
