neither can stand against rihed artillery. The
guns which contributed most 10 the preaching Of
the wall were those which carried the James
proJectile. That was the testimony Of the officers
In the fort and In the thlckest oftb ruins II was
always these shot which we found most abundant.
Inside the fort Its appearance was sufficiently
ruinous. Eleven guns were disabled, the parapet
and traverses on all sides shattered, the torn
up by shot and shell, and covered with bricks
and fragments, the blndages over the casemates
Of the gorge-curtsins splintered and shivered.
crushed by shot. The wall Of the magazine was
badly crushed, the classmates In the rear in ruins
and 70 much rubbish under the blindages that it
was difficult TO pass beneath them. over the
angle where the breach was made, the wreck was
nearly complete. Another hour would probabl,
have opened the wall from parapet to base The
ditch, twenty feet in width, was nearly filled
with the fragments Of the wall, and the storminq
party would have found q bridge already made
for their advance. In the classmates the guns
were buried out Of sight, and the arches looked
just ready TO tumble. The shot which damaged
the walls Of the magazine opposite, entered
through the casemates Of this angle, not over the
p;rapet.
II ought to be added, that the capture Of Savan.
nah need not be expected to follow al an imme-
laski. The channel opposite the fort 10 obstructed
by hulks, and the passage for gunboats uncertain.
The harbor and entrance to the river are now,
however, in the complete control Of the naval and
land forces under Com. Dupont and Gen. Hunter,
