The Attack on Charleston.

For the time the attack on the rebel deiences
ia Charleston harbor, has we regret to believe
been repuIssd. That this resul; dsappont' lhe
hope, OF US a is true enough, but that 1t enIIrey
dinpponts our expectations is not true we
knew that no labor had been spared TO make
Charleston impreguable and as the result OF 'ha'
labor we now know that there is not fleet on
the ocean, except our ron.cads that could hoat
an hour under the fire Of the rebel guns that de-
fend the port Of Charleston. We also kno" 'hl'
our Monitors sustained that terrific fire for hours
and not one of them received permanent damage
The Keokuk was not Monitor, and her loss
proves nothing against Ericsson's invention. The
Nantucket, Passaic and Nahant were injured, but
can soon be repaired. -Four Of the Monitors, the
Weebawken the Pstapsco, the Montauk, and the
KatsklI were uninlured BY the rebeI fire.
Whether the result Of this engagement estab-
li,hed the conclusion to ahjch the New York
Tunes correspondent arrived, that our iron-clads
alone could not take Charleston, or not, is mat
ter for Admiral Dupont to decide, and not for
newspapers or their reporters The opinion may
be correct one and may not One thing, however,
seems very clear, viz that what saved Charleston
this time, was not the forts and batteries, but the
obaructlons in the channel, stopping the proposes
Of our fleet, and against these, Monitors are as
4 4. 81
clAcs steamed right past Fort Sumter, and would
have gone up to the very whlrycs Of the city, in
spite of the three hundred guns that defended the
entrance, had they not encountered resistance
entirely different from shot and shell.
Another most unfortunate occurrence for US was
the unmanagsabensss Of the lronsldes. Thi'
ron.cIad carried IL guns, as many as all the Mon
op and the Whitney battery together. So far
then, as the offensive power Of the attacking fleet
was concerned it was reduced one half. And il
was Just here itt offensive that it needed
Strengthening il anywhere, This will be mort
easily appreciated when it is considered that The
Monitors fired only about 100 rounds 10 all, while
one account says the rebel batteries fired, 10 the
same time over thirtyfyo hundred, enc hundred
and sixty being counted il single minute
Whether this defect in ths lronsdes was owing
to the condition of the tide, or to some defect il
her steering apparatus, doesn't appear il th'
AFTER however, the attack will not be repeated
probably, until tho defect is remedied, and the
Monitors have also repaired damages,-and thi'
will take some little time.

NEWS OF TIE ATTACK on CB ARIES
Ton FROM REBEL SOURCES.
A GREAT EuHBARDMENT SAID TO HAVE
BEEN OPENED IN SATURDAY.

This morning the Government received a
dispatch. dated the Eth instant, from a distiu l.
guished military officer in Tennessee. stating
that the Chattanooga 5rt OF the 10th tnroba-
bly, IN extra IS the 18th vas Sunday an-
nounced that The boInhardment of Charleston
on Saturday was awful; that the firing from
Gilmore's land batteries, or Morris Island, and
from the Monitors. was chiefly directed against
Sumter.
The combined land and naval force OF the
Federals seemed TO be engaged. The inforna-
tioh published in the R.bet was received ~
Chattanooga from Charleston by telegraph, and
the fight was going on when the paper went TO
press on Sunday.
The officer who communicates TO the Gov
eminent the contents of the Rsbef, says the
editor, instead OF making any boasts about the
result, or manifesting the least jubilaet feeling
over the situation of affairs al Charleston eH-
hibits the most positive evidence of gloom,
evincing a clear knowledge of what the result
of the present attack upon the forts before
Charleston must probably be-the fall of the
city.
The Rebel states that the IroEaides and all
the Monitors were not only i'll the action, Int
that the whole fleet and large number trans
