.YU night long tl.e streets of t;
were thronged with people, lie:
housetops, the Battery, the wharves,
shipping arid every available space fni
witnessing the splendid see: c, was j
thronged with people, notwithstanding
the pelting storm, which during most
ot the night was raging. The fire from
all the forts, Sumter included, and from
the batteries of the Confederate States,
was kept up with unusual vigor 11 ii
eaily dawn. Then the rapidity of the
discharges gradually diminished.—
When the sun rose, all the clouds
which had obscured the night were
dissipate-'. The day was a beautiful
one ; the air balmy and refreshing.—
The streets were soon filled with cit
izens, inale and female, white and
black, voupg and old. From the Bat-! which lor a time threatened to all ap-
teiv to the wharves and the steeples— ,
hither and thither they went, eagerly
j seeking the best positions to use their
glasses and telescopes.
| Until about eight o'clock but a few
j random shots were fired fiem our bat
teries, Sumter only occasionally re
plying. Then it became apparent that
the fortress on which all eyes wire
riveted was on fi e. A dense smoke
was seen gradually to rise above its
rampaits. The fort certainly was on
fire. This appeared evident, though
some supposed it was tneicly a signal
of Anderson to draw in the licet to his
aid. In the oiling, quietly riding at

half an hour. The filing from with

were allowed to land at the surrender-
ed fortress on Saturday or Sunday.—
We, however, managed to see the in- j
side of the Fort on Sun lay morning,;
and shall tell all that we saw and heard.
At noon on Sunday, in order to car- j
ry out the arrangements, Gen. Beam**-
i gard, accompanied by his aids, Gov. ’
' l’ickeiis and his aids, and several |
prominent legal gentlemen, went down
in the steamer Charleston to witness ;

Perhaps he was faint before he vomited.
Look tti his throat. You see the. little

purple, and upon them large dirty
white spots. It is diptlieria of a malig

! The effect on Friday night, as most
j persons in the city know, was truly
i grand and terrific. The firing reached
' its most awful climax at about ten
o’clock, 'l'lie heavens were obscured
bv rain clouds, and the honizon was
as dark as Erebus. The guns were
worked with vigor, and their booming
was heard with astonishing distinct

to do tliis it was necessary for him to
employ all his force in drawing water
and throwing it on the fire. The more
effectually to do tliis it was necessary
for some of the men to go ousrde the
wa lls and hand buckets through Hie
port holes, exposed to the terrific fires
of the batteries and forts. This ex
pedient for obtaining water was not,
however, resorted to until the third
time the quarters were on fire and the
flames had increased in tuiy to an
alarming pitch. In the meantime his
guns were silent, arid o^men active.
These soldiers were not allowed to be
exposed more than a few minutes, but
were ordered in when the shot trom
Carolina’s batteries became too thick.

of the port holes. The destruction of

A Shaving Institution.—A few day 3
since a traveller stepped into a bank,
and immediately pulled oil liis hat, coat
and cravat. This done, he cast a look
at the cashier, who was seated in a
corner, “calm as a May morning,” ami
with a commanding shake of the head,
said :
“Hadn’t you better be getting that
hot water?”
The teller informed him that he was
in the wrong shop. “You are in a
bank, sir, not in a barber shop.’’
“Bank, whew!’’ ejaculated the as
tonished stranger. “Blame it, they
told me it was a place where they
shaved people.” * *

The long range of shooting must also
be taken into account. In addition to
tliis, on each side, the men, seeing a
discharge in their direction, learned to
dodne tli? balls and to throw them
selves under cover. An incident ot
tliis kind oceured on Sullivan’s Island.
A number of men were stretched out
on the beach, and Anderson threw a
shell at them, but seeing it coming,
-hey scattered and ran behind the
houses. Tiie shell exploded, harming
no one. A horse on this same Island

General Beauregard decided upon

that he extinguished it. He expected
some one then to come and help him

nothing more than usual in civilized
warfare. He repeatedly, enven un

of the public property.
After remaining in the Fort some
minutes, Major Anderson got into the
barge of Capt. Gillis, of the l S Navy,
and rowed to the steamer Isabel. The
boat was manned by eight Federal
sailors, and carried in her stern sheet
a small Federal flag. During the dis
