C. Boyleston and Lieutenants J. M. Rhett and K. Kemper, First South Carolina Artillery. The enemy's land-forces, collected in considerable strength on Seabrook Island, and in the transports in North Edisto River, and on Folly, Cole's, and other islands about the mouth of the Stono River inlet, made no attempt to cooper-ate actively with the naval attack. In conclusion, I shall avail myself of the occasion to give as my opinion that the best, the easiest way to render Fort Sumter impregnable would be to arm, conformably to its original plan, both tiers of casemates and the barbette, with the heavest guns, rifled or smooth-bore, that can be made. Respectfully, your obedient servant, G. T. Beauregard, Genl. Comdg.
