The Washington Light Infantry, 1807-1861. The ante-bellum history of old Charleston's loyal sons was so continuously prominent in the annals of Charleston, for more than half a century, that it is only in order to refer very briefly to it here. Founded by William Lownes in 1807, upon receiving the news of the Leopard and Chesapeake affair, its roll of thirteen commanders down to 1861, reveals the character of its membership-Lowndes, Cross, Crafts, Simons, Miller, Gilchrist, Ravenel, Lee, Jervey, Porter, Walker, Hatch, Simonton. The public observance of Washington's birthday, by an oration and social functions, on 22d February, was an annual feature of W. L. I. life, and the annual response from the community indicated the highest public favor. This observance was continued up to and in the war period, the last celebration taking place in Fort Sumter while the command was part of the garrison of the gateway of Charleston, on the 22d of February, 1862. Referring to earlie

ing was altered to 11 o'clock. In the matter of reporters, Mr. Inglis moved that only those are to be admitted who are from South Carolina. Mr. Quatlebaum moved that each resolution be voted on separately. Mr. Logan moved to admit only two reporters. Mr. Chevis moved to allow the President discretion in that matter, and then the question will lie between him and the editors. Mr. Memmimger.--Does the resolution apply to reporters from the Southern States alone! Mr. Simons favored letting the reporters alone. Mr. Curtis thought we should not be ashamed of what we are doing. The subject was dropped without action. Mr. Bonneau moved that the Mayor of Charleston be requested to furnish policemen at the doors of the hall. Objected to. Mr. Richardson thought it best that the Convention should set with closed doors, at least to-day and to-morrow. Mr. Chesnut thought this impracticable.--The public demanded, and it was essential to their s

The Imperial Court of Appeal has modified some of its findings, but the sentence in the case of Count Simons is confirmed. Wheat and corn are to be admitted into the ports of France, temporarily, free of duty. The Paris Bourse was flat at 68£85 Italy. An important diplomatic circular has been published by Baron Ricasoli, explaining that the prevailing brigandism near the Neapolitan Provinces is inspired from Rome, and asserting that the government will not pause in its efforts for the unity of Italy.

results of his mighty and unparalleled struggle for the possession of Sumter, and seemingly despairing of ultimate success, has opened fire on the city. Since Thursday morning between twenty five and thirty shells have been thrown, fortunately injuring no one. The gun from which the shells appear to come is situated on the extreme end of Cummings's Point. The marsh battery ("Swamp Angel") now has a mortar in position, and occasionally opens fire on Sumter. Private Edward Lake, of Capt. Simons's company, 27th regiment, S. C. V., (formerly Charleston battalion,) who was killed at Fort Sumter, was struck in the left cheek by a piece of shell, which passed downwards transversely, and rested in the right breast. His death is the more saddening as four or five members of his family, including his father and mother, had but recently died, all within eight days of each other. The only member left is a little girl of between thirteen and fourteen years old, who depended upon her brot
