Arrive^ ft (iranby, tfti Friday
evening last, (b* Steam -Boat South
Carolina; 'Captain Just, (with a
tow boat in co.) 13 days from Charles
ton, with sundries, to A. Heiljemont,
and others* - She left Charleston on
tlie 29th ult; about ^ P. M. and ar
|?rived at Granby on Friday the lith
about the same hour. This arrival
may b^ galled the first fruits of the
enterprising spirit which actuates our
citizens, and is the pledge of others
much more extensive and important
which are unfoldiug. It also shows
the growing importance of our tow u.
Kite years ago the enterpi ize was
deemed altogether impracticable ; i
is now accomplished with ease ; w ha;
five years more will produce, per
haps we cannot well imagine.
?fBie South-Carolina is a beauti
ful boat, about 110 feet long, and
does not . draw three feet Water. ?
Her engine is of tyventy-four horse
power, of clean aud beautiful work
wanslup, and plays adrtirably well.
There was abtmdant water in the ri
ver, aid captain Just gives it as his
Opinion, that she can ply with ease
during ofdiuary high w ater. In en
tering the river she struck upon an
oyster-bank, which isMhc only acci
dent of the slighest nature which we
could discover in \|*ersuing the log
book, whicn the captain politely
furnished us. There was muck dif
ficulty experienced on the passage in
procuring wood. One entire day
antl several parts of d^ys were lost
iu this way, .This and other minor
obstacles will be obviated as speedi
ly as possible, when she will be
able to make an ordinary run from
Charleston to :Coluuibia in eight or
ten days, and back again iu six or
seven. '
The tow bo?t lias discharged her
freight, and is now takingrti a load
of cotton, and it is suppose Utey will
sail for Charleston ^this day or to
morrow. *
