rt Sumter would have been stormed to-night. The men are crazy for a fight. The bells have been chiming all day, guns firing, ladies waving handkerchiefs, people cheering, and citizens making themselves generally demonstrative. It is rewarded as the greatest day in the history of South Carolina. --Such it undoubtedly was.

This had at length been effected; and Schenck's brigade and Ayres' battery, of Tyler's division, were on the point of crossing the Run to aid in completing our triumph. But the Rebels, at first out-numbered at the point of actual collision, had been receiving reinforcements nearly all day; and, at this critical moment, Gen.
