From Charleston.

The news from Charleston is simply
exciting, without being satisfactory
in point of cIearness. Something is
evidently transpiring, and q disaster
to the attacking feet is rumored. The
Richmond Wing of the 9th contains
the following:
CHARLESTON, S. c., April Z.
The attack upon Charleston com.
menced today. Four iron-clads are
engaged. The firing from the feet
upon Forts Sumter and Moultrie is
very heavy. The Ironsides was hit
and ran ashore, but subsequently got
out of range. At two o'clock, nine
Monitors and the Ironsides opened fire
at distance of 5000 yards.
At 80 minutes past 3 o'clock the
firing on both sides became incessant.
1t was kept up until o'clock, when
it gradually diminished. The fire of
the feet was concentrated on Sumter.
The 1ronsides and Keokuk withdrew,
apparently disabled.
CHARLESTON, April 8.
Seven turreted iron-clads and the
lronsides are inside of the bar. The
Keokuk is sunk on the beach, off Nor
ris' Island. There is no disposition on
the part Of the Federals TO renew the
conflict.
Our meagre news is purely from
rebel sources, and must be taken
with due caution, considering its
source, not to say its very nature
The absurdity of the story is seen in
the fact that this sinking of the Keo.
kuk and the danger Of the other
vessels, were effected by a FIRE at
5000 yards-nearly two miles. We
need not say that the iron-clads might
without sending q shot in return, lie
