ney knew of the danger he rushed to
save the contents of the safe, but was so
hard pressed by passengers who had mo-
ney therein, that all the boats money,

The Siege of CharIeston-Is
the Place ElmpregnabIe?

The New York Evening Post, lead
ing Administration journal, thus notices
the pretracted siege of Charleston. It
says:
'What is the matter before Charleston?
Why has every thing come to a stop
there2 After series of most brilliant
operations, which reflect the highest credit
on the engineering genius of General Gill
more, we have tedious and harmless
bombardment, which may interest the
gunners, and is, perhaps, amusing to the
getting to be dreadful bore to people in
this latitude Grumblers say that if Gill
more's capture of Batteries Wagner and
Gregg was one of the most brilliant, it has
also proved one of the most useless of
engineering feats; that with great pains,
and some loss of life, he worked himself
into cul dc sac, where Beauregard may
safely leave him; and that Admiral Dahl
gren's prudence is greater than the oc-
casion demands
This is what the grumblers say; and
we must own that the operations before
Charleston are falling into contempt
The furious battering of fort already &
month or six weeks ago Knocked into t
shapeless mass does not, it is believed
advance our prospects of the surrender o.
capture of the city; and from thes position
we now hold the enemy is not threatene,
in any alarming way. 1t is another o
those attacks in front, so many of which
have been made by Union Generals il
this war, and with constant failure.
