New YORK, August 20.
A Morris Island letter to the Herald states
that the appearance of the gorge face of
Sumter last night and its psrapet was not
unlikesthat presented by Fort Pulaski on
the evening of the first days fire. Thirty
or forty large holes could be counted on the
face of the work. The parapet was knocked
off in places, barricade of bricks covering
the magazines, and the sand traverses were
seriously damaged, and the grim old fort
looked as though she had received very Sc
we're treatment at our hand. Three days
of such work will bring down Sumter around
the heads of its defenders, if they wait so
long. 1t certainly cannot hold out much
longer than that time. Six days were given
it to hold out by those who best know its
strength ard our offensive power. Forts
Wagner and Gregg will be attended to in
due time.
