Late telegrams report the fort cannot hold much longer as provisions run out. Gen Beott advises withdrawal of the garrison, surrender to rebels, and abandonment of the stronghold. Maj Ancernon and his men receive fresh meat and vegetables from Charleston, but bread and salt provisions are exhausted, leaving only palmetto supplies and no federal protection on American soil. This may signal a move toward peace or dissolution of the union.
