Letter from Hon. WIN. p. Murray
to Mayor Warren.

WASHINGTON CITY, D. c. Feb. II, 1864.
Hon. JOHN E. WARREN:
DEAR SIR-The Committee on Public Lands
reported our Lake Superior and Mississippi
Railroad Land Grant Bill back to the Senate to-
day with the unanimous recommendation that
it pass. think there is no doubt but that il
will pass the Senate in few days. Everything
looks favorable in reference to it. 1t will be
sometime however before it is finally disposed
on account of the large amount of business
before Congress of general nature. The. bill
is o very liberal one as reported. and am sat-
isied that it will give entire satisfaction to our
people. The fact that the city of Saint Paul
had confidence enough in the project to vote
gift of $3.50, 900 was one of the strongest
points with the Committee in bringing about
so favorable and so early report, for out of
at least dozen bills for railroad grants, ours
is the first one reported upon.
would have written you before, but dis
liked to trouble you until 1 could see day

shells to be rolled into the water. This
was done under heavy fire directed upon
that portion of the work.
The fort was now safe from explosion
of any sort; it only remained to hold the
work under the enemy's battering, and to
repulse assaults.
The attack of September 2 failed, and
the first bombardment of Sumter ended.
1t had lasted sixteen days. Since then,
no such grand attack of all the monitors
and the Ironsides has been made upon
Fort Sumter. During the fight Of Sept
8, three monitors were disabled in an eff
fort to save the Weehawken, grounded
within range.
Beside the detachment at the guns, men
and officers were necessarily occupied.
Heavy ordnance was mounted, shifted and
dismounted. Bunks, temporary buildings
and combustible matter were cleared away.
There was much work to be done by SOL
diers in digging dirt from the parade and
filling classmates with sand. Negroes were
also engaged in this duty, as.also in pro-
tecting the hospital, magazines, and guns,
by sand traverses. Troops, ammunition
and provisions were carried all night long,
in small boats, to and from Fort Sumter
and Norris Island. Invaluable pieces of
huge ordnance, shot, Shells, powder, and
commissary stores were saved to the Con-
federacy by this night work of the gar
rison.
On August ~, the artillery was with
drawn, leaving but one company in the
Fort. Gen. Beauregard offered to relieve
Col. Rhett, if he needed rest. The Col.
declined to be relieved, while any of his
men were in the work, or it was consid-
cred to be an artillery post.
The south wall of the Fort was knocked
into mass of rubbish. The northeast
and northwest walls were cut down and
honey-combed the classmates battered
into heaps of brick and mortar. The east
wall was SCARED, pitted and preached
Every available gun had been dismounted,
or rendered unserviceable. The Fort was
a mere wreck; but the Confederate flag
still flew over the silent ruins. Half of
the men left in the Fort were unfit for duty,
from want of sleep and exhaustion.

Items about Fort Sumter, gathered from
the official report Of the Inspector Cen
eral, and incorporated in the correspond
ence of the Mobile Tribune, of January
18th, may be enumerated as follows:
The garrison of the fort was five hun
dred men of the First South Carolina
Artillery, under command of Col. Alfred
Rhett. -
At the commencement of the lombard
ment of August Is, 1868, there were iQ
the fort 13l, 900 lbs. of gunpowder. The
magazine containing it, became in few
days unsafe from the destructive effect of
the 2OO-pounder ParrOtt shells and shot
hurled into the walls aud -ments adj
joining it. The powder was removed by
night to the west magazine, and shipped
as fast as possible to Charleston.
On Sunday, August %, the Ironsides
bombardment. A fog protected them from
the guns of Moultrie, Sumter, having only
tive 1O-inch and one l1-inch gun left en-
bnrbelte, could only fire an occasional shot
to show life. For seven hours, at close
range, the feet buried shot and shell into
the wO.k. Striking the wall near the par
apet, loose brick were thrown up in col
umns, and fell in showers around the gum
ners and about the work. Walls were
rlowed through, classmates were filed
with sand, and the shells passed across the
parade, striking the interior wall of the
west magazine, containing powder enough
to destroy the fort and garrison. One
she'll struck the ventilatOr and exploded.
1t filled the magazine with smoke. An
other more successful shot, and all would
have been lost. 1t was an anxious mo-
ment, but the fort was held Gradually
the morning dawned The fog lifted, and
Fort Moultrie opened fire on the chips.
Instead Of continuing their fire at this
critical period, the feet withdrew, and the
danger was RENTED. The object was now,
IN the unsafe condition of the fort, to get
rid of the powder. 1t depends on time,
and the movements of the fleet. Had the
fleet early renewed the attack, the busi-
ness might have been done. The fleet de-
layed! Night after night the powder was
moved in barrels, under the enemy's guns
Only eight hundred pounds were left the
crisis was passed! The fort was now safe
from the explosion of the powder in its
magazine.
Another grand combined attack of land
batteries and fleet was made, during which

into the sbell-rocm and exploded, immi-
nently endangering piles of loaded shells.

Second-There are no exemptions except the

SECTION 5. And be 1t further enacted, That
any person drafted into the military service of
the United States may, before the time fixed
for his appearance for duty at the draft rendez-
vOus, furnish an acceptable substitute, subject
to such rules and regulations as may be pre-
scribed by the Secretary of War; that if such
substitute is not liable to draft, the person fur
the time for which such substitute is not liable
to draft not exceeding the term for which he
was drafted and, if such substitute is liable to
draft, the name Of the person furnishing him
shall be liable to the draft in future calls, but
not until the present enrolment shall be
exhausted. This exemption shall not ex-

have been drafted. And any person now
in the military or naval service of the
United States, not specially designated
to pass, who has served more than
one year, or whose term, if unexpired, shall
not, at the time of substitution, exceed six
months, may be employed as o substitute, to
serve in the troops of the State in which he
enlisted And, if any drafted person shall
hereafter pay money for the procuration of a
substitute, under the provisions of the act to
which this is an amendment, such payment of
money shall operate only to relieve such per-
son from draft on that call, and his name shall
be retained on the roll. as he shall be subject
to draft in filling future quotas. But in no in
stance shall the exemption of any parson on
account of his payments of commutation mon
eY for the prOcuration of a substitute extend

in every such case, the name of any person so
exempted shall be enrolled again, if not before
