FnOM THE SOUTHERN PATRIOT.
Ill rej>J;, to "The Writer" iu the
ndcn Uazette, we would observe
.at wejttmbgiornnt in what respect
.ve are entitled to the credit of mak
ing an ingenious defence whilst sim
ply stating facts. In our opinion tlie
?ouduct of the State Engineer re
quired no defence; we know tliat he
lias beeu zealous and indefatigable
iu carrying into effect the intentions
?f ~tl?e Legislature. By a resolution
of that body be is expressly directed
to open the navfs^ition of the Broad
and 8aluda rivers, and it was gener
ally understood that he was to com
mence his operations at that point.?
The Legislature confided in the skill
of the Engineer to directthe works, we
helievo that the public are generally
satisfied with the court* he has pnr
sued/3 We can only regret that lie
lid not cousult the wishes of " The
Writer** in the Camden Gazette,
that " all might have been comnie il
faut 'but there it reason to appre-j
hjnd that some inhabitant of Orange
burg might have been dissatisfied,
and that all cause of Jealousy woulcl
not have been removed, eveu by the
pMirseaug^esled by_ " The Writer.^
!\Ve assure him, howevev; that the
citizens of Oharle*ii{n, who are ad
mitted liy " Tlte Writer,to be
most concerned^ are generally sati*-'
Bed with the course pursued by thtr
Engineer. Tliey think that the 8a*
ludaund Edisto rivers, will be the
mean? of diverting the trade from
Augusta and ttavannah, and that the
ftiytee wilt probably be the channel
of thrtt trade wiiidi has hitherto
flowed through North0.u\>Una. The
works on these rivers are pursued
4iritb vvigor, and together with the
canal between Wmyaw bay and
Sahtee, %ill, probably, be complet
ed within one year. Contracts have
been entried into for remedying all
i>l?atructio&J* the navigation of the
Coogarte^fft Wateree, and the
work is ?M(hr commenced 4*1 UA

State. We now take our leave of
The Writer," assuring him tliat our
remarks were intended to correct
what we deemed an error, not to
take any pavtln^i question which ap?
l>cars altogether l<?!tl? We have
no doubt that the V^atereefker Will
meet with that attec mn which its im
portance deaervea, iinl we hope that
the commercUt prosperity of Cam

We understand that His Excel

several years.since was attached to
the Russian Legation ' when Count
Pohleii was the Russian Minister in
this country. Mr. Foletica, during
his former residence Ucre made many
|>ersonal friends, by whom he was
much respected and esteemed. Since
then, we learn from the journals of
Europe, be has enjoyed the confi
dence of the Erapeitr Alexander,
whohtfs engaged hi hi in important
missions to Spain and elsewhere;?
and councils at the late convention of
Sovereigns at Aix_ la Chapelle, at
the time when he was about imme
