They are now in the occupancy of comfortable quarters, and hard at work in the examination and improvement of the batteries. The commissioned officers whilst traveling here took their meals at the va

night. The people, apprised of the movements on foot, crowded around the arsenals and watched with deep interest the progress of making ready, occasionally indicating their sympathy by hearty cheers. Under these directions the troops of Gen. Palfrey's Brigade assembled under arms, fully equipped for campaign service, and about 11 o'clock marched aboard the towboat Yankee, at the foot of St. Philip street, which had steam and was getting aboard a large quantity of provisions and gunpowderossession of Fort Jackson, with the balance of the detachment.

After the brief but exciting experience of the morning, I am prepared, without hesitation, to concur with the captain in the opinion that it is very unpleasant to be fired at with hard cannon balls, without any chance to fire back. I wish to say, however, that no one on board displayed any symptoms of fear. Capt. McGowan, and the pilot, Mr. Brewer, were probably especial marks for the Morris' Island battery, since a good shot through the wheel-house would have been most disastrous.

I learned that we arrived in the vicinity of Charleston bar about midnight; that all the coast-lights had been extinguished, and that thus far it had been impossible to find the main channel.
