COMPARTMENT OF FORT SUMTER.
Al about , O'Clock: on the afternoon O.!
Thursday, General l'EArNEGAED made a de-
mand on Major ANDERSON for the immedi-
ate surrender Of Fort Sumter, through his
Aids, Col. JAMES CnEs%rT, Jr.. Col.
CHlsoLM aud Capt. LEE. Major ANDERSON
replied that such 4 course would be neon
sistcnt with the duty he was required by
his Government 10 perform. The answer
was communicated by the General-In-Chlef
10 President DAVIS.
This visit, and the refusal OF the com
mandant Of Fort Sumter to accede to the
demand made by General BEarE-GARn,
passed irou tongue to tongue, and soon
the whole city was in possession Of the
startling intelligence. Rrmor, as she Is
wont to do, shaped the facts to suit her
purposes, enlarged her dimension, and gave
them a complexion which they had not
worn when fresh from the pure and artlesS
hands of'truth.
4 half an hour after the return OF the
ordcrlies it was confidently believed that
the batteries would open fire at eight
o'clock, and in expectation OF seeing the
beginning Of the conflict, hundreds ccngre-
gated upon the Battery and the wharres,
looking cut on the bay. There they stood,
straining their eyes over the dark expanse
Of water, waiting to see the flash and hear
the boom OF the first gun. Inc CLOCK told
the hour Of eleven, and still they gazed
and listened, but the cyelids grew weary,
and at the noon Of the night the larger
portion of the disappointed spectators were
plodding their way honeward.

preaching the South and South Western
walls of Fort Sumter. The North west
wall is suffering from the "ell-ainaea IRE
of the Floating Battery, whose snot nave
dismounted several Of the guns on the para

ing ones. The Howitzer Battery connected
with the ~impregnablc Gun Battery at Cum
ming's Point, is managed with consummate
skill and terrible effect.
