I have never, since the commencement of the war, seen such anxiety exhibited among Americans as there wa: sterday to obtain the news by the Europa; and this was hoightened by the fact that, although the steamer reached Queenstown at six A.

(Charleston (Aprit 13) ogrreapondence of London Herald.) DRFENCKS OF CHARLESTON HARUOR, Tbe harbor of Charleston is bounded by flats. Ite northern shore sweeps from the city towards the sea in the form of a semicircle, its soushorn shore tends to sea- ward in a curve less concave. Embraced between these two encircling arms, the harbor spreads out towards the open sea from one of the fairost citios of America. The loft beach is formed, for the greater part of its extent, by tho mainland, but is terminated oceanward by Sulli- van’s Island, The right shore is formed by two isiands— James, near ity, and out to sea, Morris. Sullivan's Is- land, on the north, confronts Morris on the south, and both’of these, seperated by an inlet of some one thonsand yards in width, constitute the portals leading from the Ocean into the harbor of Charleston, pronch to this ‘cradle of secession.’’ and Charybdis, about fifteen hundred yards, lies Fort Sumter, the three constituting the extreme points of a tri- angle that may be said, in al terms, to be equilate- ral. These constitute the first line of defence; ing been the only positions on, in the tate conflict here, are all that-require in this letter a special reference. Besides, the inner defences being unknown to the enemy, cannot be referred to-at the present time with proper ro- gard to the neutrality which your correspondent feéis bound in good conscience to observe. The Confederate works on Morris’ and Sullivan’s Islands are not plated with iron; they are made with earth and sand, Sand bags or soda are sometimes employed at the angles, and, when used at these places, present outlines olean and sharp. }, im these instances, are protected by mounds of earth or sapd—in some Instances sandbags, in others, soda. Fort Sumtef covers an artif- cial island, formed ‘by granite chips, on the edge of the channel into Charleston. It is about sixty feet high. ‘The shape of the work is irregular—consisting of a gorge to the rear, one side fronting the east, and constituting the sea face; and two othor sides, looking to the northeast and north, constituting the channel faces. The walls de- cline in thickness from twelve fest at the base to eight feet at the parapet, and are made up of a brick facing, @ brick backing, and an intermediate space filled iv with concrete. The armament consists of @ certain number of guns in casemate, and a corresponding number en bar. bette—the barbette batteries divided at the northern angle by a brick traverse. Sumter has no giacis.

Advancing on her circling course, the lronsides makes way for her attend. ant warriors; and one by one, as their turrets whirl in the war dance of Titans, they receive the fire, sometimes diftused, sometimes concentrated, of the surrounding cir- cle of batteries. The tirst division of the ships curves on its path under an iron storm tbat rends the air withits roar and bursts upon their mail in quick succession of roports; sometimes with the heavy groan of crushing, sometimes with the sharp ery o! tearing.
