dent all his florid Southern rhetoric, all the final armory of offended Southern dignity, and the ever-ready threats of Southern resort to violence. Send troops to Charleston, he concluded, and the swarming and enraged South Carolinians would not leave one brick of Moultrie upon another. Nor was Floyd content to risk the issue upon his own eloquence. He gave the note of alarm to every prominent traitor in Washington, and without delay they flocked around the doubting, hesitating President-Hunter, Mason, Jefferson Davis — the whole busy cabal of plotting, caucusing conspirators, filling him alternately with such deceitful promises of good behavior and such terrible visions of revolutionary violence, that Mr. Buchanan was both frightened and soothed into a reluctant compliance with their advice.

Fourth Division, commanded by Runyon: an aggregate of 5,752 men; no brigade commanders.

Unluckily, at the very outset, Hunter and Heintzelman were delayed two or three hours by the fir bridge, and hastened to the rear to throw himself across Hunter's path. The Union approach having become plainly discerniint of a hill south of Young's Branch. At ten o'clock Hunter's advance emerged from the woods into open fields, about aof regulars was sent to strengthen his left. By this time Hunter had sent Porter's brigade into the fields to the right of regiments, and the serious loss of valuable officers.
