letter dated the 10Th, from Morris
Island, to the Herald states the & re of our
batteries still continued, ard the masonry
OF Snmpter is gradually crumbling and
tumbling to ruins. The rebel flag and stag
was shot away en- the 18th, but was re
placed. A violent storm raging on the 18th

teries, however, have got perfect range, and
are demolishing the gorge wall, the wholes

multiplied hundred fold since yesterday.
They have completely demolished the abut-

torn away, and breaches madc through

opposite wall, which can be plainly
seen.
Deserters state the effect of our shots on
Snmpter was terrible and that four men
were killed and six wounded in Wagner on
Monday. The rebel batteries on James
Island continued fire, but without much
damage
Another letter, dated goth, to the Herald
says:
From one end of our lines to the other
our guns are pouring in the fire against the
gorge wall of Sumpter, but still it holds to-
gether. 1t will be gradually torn to pieces.
The iron clads moved up ARREST Of Sumpter
last evening, but heavy sea prevented their
operating. The gale is gradually subsiding.
More guns were mounted at the front last
night. Our heaviest pieces have not opened
yet.
The steamer New Brunswick stranded
upon the bar, and her cargo is being taken
out by lighters. The numerous torpedoes
are now powerless for harm, as effective
measures have been taken by which to avoid
them.
The health Of the troops is good, and they
are in excellent spirits.
