From oharlestOu.

The correspondent Of the New York
Times At Port Royal, s. O., has had an in
terview with Thomas Pritchard, a reero
carpenter who recently escaped from
Charleston 70 one Of our gunboats. With
regard TO the state Of feeling in earliest
ton, be says that the unanimity which
has heretofore existed, no longer prevails.
Constant fears Of attack upon the city
by our iron-clad gunboats have sngen.
dered a very bitter feeling, and divided
the people in two parties, as 10 best
course 10 be pursued in case the gun
boats should succeed in passing the forts
and batteries. and reach the city. The
"no surrender" party are in favor Of
burning the place, in event of this, while
the others are violently opposed to such
a sacrifice, preferring to eat humble pie
and surrender the city, as vas done at
New Orleans. The poorer classes are
reduced 10 the most pittiable straits, and
the bitter feeling Of animosity which
prevailed among them at the beginning of
the war is completely changed, and they
now pray for the coming of the Yankees
TO bring them food anc relieve their dis
tress. There is a greater scarcity of
provisions than. has existed, and prices
were never known TO range as high be-
fore during the war. Flour is worth S49
a barrel, tea Sl5 pound, good meat Zoe
a pound. The poor are all kept at ex-
pense of the city.
The people expected that the city
would be attacked about the 10th Of
last month, aud very great many have
left. They are still moving away in
dread Of it, and a committee Of aldermen
was convened to render assistance to those
who were unable TO get away. Large
frame buildings have been erected at
Greenville, to accommodate a portion Of
them The greater portion of the me-
groes were removed TO Columbus at the
commencement of the war, and with them
is Toms wife and family. There are
five thousand troops in and about Charles
ton, and a new fort (Fort Ripley has
been constructed near the city. A row
of spiles has beecn placed across the
channel, extending from behind Fort
Sumter to James Island, leaving just
sufficient room for vessel TO pass with
difficulty. To these spiles large RATS of
timber have been fastened by means of
heavy chains.
The two rams are both completed,
but have proved useless for offensive
operations, the engines not being strong
enough to drive them through the water
with the requisite velocity. They are
anchored in the harbor, and will be used
as an additional means of defence.

Writs of election will be issued, and
the election held at the places desig-
mated by law, and the proceedings

And no person will be consider
ed as an elector qualified to vote,
who, in addition to the qualifications
now required by law, does not give sat-
isfactOry evidence to the judges holding
said election Of his loyalty TO the Gov
eminent of the United States.
In testimony whereof, /, ANDREW JOHN
SON, Governor of the State Of
Tennessee, and Commander-in-
Chief of the forces thereof, have
~, hereunto set my hand and

An Original Duel.

Old Col. S., of Wisconsin, was an
odd genius, queer compound of comic
seriousness. Replete with jokes, both
original and selected, he was not slow in
Matching them up, and dealing them out
in small doses on different occasions.
One evening, at party, a young gen.
tleman, upon whom the Colonel had told
some cutting jokes, feeling himself in
suited, challenged the Colonel to mortal
combat.
The challenge was accepted.
Having the choice of weapons, and the
appointment of the place of meeting, the
Colonel told the young man to repair, the
following morning, at six o clock, to a cer-
tain spot, and added that he would see
that the weapons were there.
The following morning, at the appoint
cd time, the young man repaired to the
indicated spot (said spot being among
the lead MINES, was, naturally, furrowed
with mineral holes)
"Well, youngster," said the Colonel,
sticking his hands in his pockets and
ejecting a surperlluous quantity of to-
bacco juice from his capacious mouth.
"are you ready"
Receiving an affirmative answer, he
continues; "Here's where we are to fight"
indicating mineral shaft near by, which
was at least sixty feet deep; "and here's
our weapons" pointing to pile of rocks,
you're are to go down that ar hole and
throw rocks up, and Pm to stay up here
and throw rocks down"
1t is needless TO add that the challenge
was Withdrawn.
