The Heroes of Fort Sumter.

I. is just as we anticipated. OF The
men who so MOLLY defended the "Stars
and Stripes" and held the walls Of Sumter
against force one hundred times their
number, for foIty-two hours, under an in
cessant storm Of shot and shell though
their last mouthful of provisions WAS con-
sumed, and the very ruins around them
famed like the crater of volcano,-of
these men, as we have already stated Two
thirds, at least, were Irish Americans
men too, who, like the heroic Celts who
manned the crumblipg walls Of Spoleto,
could die, but never would in the hour Of
danger, desert the flag they had sworn to
defend.
Whilst every one has been loud in
praise Of the garrison of Fort Sumter, we
have not seen any attempt made to place
on record the names of those 10 each of
whom, in the days Of the Roman Republic
the laurel crown and distinction bene
neritus would have been decreed by a
grateful people. Having, properly, a
deeper interest in them, as fellow country
