The Baltimore american relates the following:
One of the Baltimorcans who recently returned
from Fort Sumter details an Impressive incident
that took place there on Major Anderson taking
possession. It is known that the American flag
brought away from Fort MouItric was raised at
Sumter precisely at noon on the 9th ult, but
the incidents Of that flag raising have not
been related 1t was 4 scene that will be a
memorable renliniscence in the lives Of those
who witnessed II.
A short time before noon Major Anderson as
sembled his little force, with the wOrkmen en-
ployed on the fort, around the flagstaff. The
national ensign was attached to the cord, and
Major Anderson, holding the end Of the lines in
his hands, knelt reverently down. The officers,
soldiers and men clustered around, many Of them
on their knees, oil deeply impressed with the
sOlemnity Of the scene. The chaplain made an
earnest prayer-such an appeal for support, en-.
cOuragemcnt and mercy aS ore would make who
felt that "man S extremity is Gods opportunity"
As the earnest, solemn words of the speaker
ceased, and the men responded "AmenW with
q lervency that perhaps they never before expe-
rienced, Major Anderson drew the star-spangled
banner up to the top Of the taft, the band broke
out with Hail Columbia" and loud and exulant
cheers, repeated again an" again, were given by
the officers, soldiers and workmen. "lL" said
the narrator, "SOuth Carolina had attacked tn.
fort, there would have been no hesitation on the
part Of any man within it about defending the
fag."
