aud breaking upthe furniture, The Mayor
was sent for, butsarrived too late to stop the
mob Governor Vance was sent for, aud

spoiled all. Our batteries were not asleep,
and SO, instead of surperb midnight ia
beau, arranged by talented managers, the gray
of morning dawned revealing the crippled
and shattered remnant Of that barge fotilla,
crawling back to their ships, filled with
maDgled and groaning wretches. The Con-
federate banner is still flying over the much
longed for walls and the worst of all, that
old article of theatrical property-the An
derson flag, was borne off to be hung up for
a trophy in some church Of the proud city
of secession
