[FROM OUR TUAVKJLX.ING UOIUIKHFONDENT. ] COLUMBIA, S. C., Friday, May 14.-My trip from Charleston to Columbia waa a pleasant ono. Conduotors Eennody and Thames were, as ever, most attentive, and I enjoyed a ohat en route with H. T. Peak o, Esq., who wis on the alert lo deteot and remedy anything wrong in the rolling stock, road-bed or buildings of the huge railroad of which bo is the able aud indefatigable General Superintendent. I made the moat of my time in talking with the farmers whom I met in the cars. Of course, there were as many different opinions as there were men, but I was able to reaoh thea J general conclusions: The farmers, with but a few foolish ex? ceptions, are planting fall crops of corn, which is doing well iii spite of the backward spring. Tho cotton will have to be planted over very generally, as the stand is bal and much that is up looks yellow, although it has greatly improved in the last ten days. Be? tween Orangeburg and this city, I saw sev? eral extensive fields of the staple where the stand was all that could be desired; but the plant was only a few inches high. In some sections of Orangebarg and adjacent counties fertilizara are being largely usod. Peruviau guano still holds the front rank; Rhodes' phos? phate, mi manoa by Messrs. B. S. Rhett & Son, soema to bo the best liked of the Northern manipulations, and the Wando of the ho ne prepared phosphates. 1 find that tho farmers aro very genorally experimenting with tho va rious guanos and phosphates-, this year, and with a good season their relative merits will soon be d coi J od. You may form some idea of the damage a heavy rain, lasting for a few hours, . oan do, when I tell you that wo passed o vor an em? bank neat between Lewisville and Fort Motte, in which a hole large enough to have swallowed up two or three oars had been washed, and into which the night train would have been pre? cipitated had not timely warning been givon by a freedman from an adjoining plantation. The company have always liberally rewarded persons who give information of damage done the track, and have thus saved many valuable lives and much property, as accidents occur? ing at night cannot. always be detected by the section-masters..

I find THK NEWS is considered "the paper" of the State, and when I oan find any who do not take it and tell them of it, they either suoscribo at once or promise to do so in the hopeful fall. I found on inquiry at the post offices, by the wayside, that they receive very many more copies of TELE NEWS than ol that good old commercial sheet, the Courier. Tai NEWS is as good a paper for the oity as the Courier, with the advantage of being a far better paper for the State al large. I must not forget to mention that the freed? men are working' well. They want (how strange. 1 ) money, finding now that the State pap wont feed them all. I learn from an intelligent farmer that lands in the upper portion of St. Matthews Pariah have appreciated 88} per cent, in value since 1867, and that owners don't care to sell even on these terms. Every picture must have its lights as well ss it? shadows ; the old State viii rise again and the Palmetto blossom anew. SKXLOH. "G?i? EOE COTTON.'* TO THE EDITO P. OF THE NEWS.

Here the word .?banks" ought to be "bonds." and the sentence will read thus-"Tho bonds are a swindle, (at least the one billion six hun? dred m Ilion ? payable in the currency of the United mates, which are to be capitalised into specie, paying bonds.")

Thc Advantages of tho Route hy Knox? ville and Kaban Oap. The following report made by a special com? mittee of the Board of Directors of the Georgia Railroad and unanimously adopted, shows the superior advantages of Iii o Blue Ridge route to connect Ciscinrsiiti and tho Weet with the sea? board: The oommittee to whom was referred the consideration of the projected railroad from Athens to the Rabun Gap, submit the follow? ing report: Tho present condition and prospects of the Blue Ridge Railroad projeotcd trom Anderson, Routh Carolina, to Knoxville, Tennessee, pass ing through the Rabun Gap, have at the out? set of their investigations claimed the atten? tion of your committee. From a teccnt report of J. U. Harrison, Esq., President of the road, tho following facts have been collected: Tho entire length of the proposed road, known as the Blue R'dgo Railroad, from An? derson to Knoxville, is 195 miles: the estimated cost of construction, $7,675,000, of which amount there has been expended $8 287 OOO. which bas been absorbed in the construction of eighteen miles east from Knoxville to Marye v.lle, the completion of the road from Ander? son to Walhalla, a distance of thirty-three milos, and the heavy grading, tunnelling and masonry between Walhalla and Clayton, a dis? tance of thirty-one miles. The expenditure of so large an amount upon com par&tively so short a line of the road is explained by the fact that botwoen Walhalla and Clayton tho passage of tho Blue Ridge is achieved and all engiuot riug aifficultios overcome, though the summit is a'taiued at the Gap, two and three-quarter miles west of Clayton. Somo conception of tho magnitude of the work upon this section max be formed from tho statement that the esti? mated cost ot the road in Georgia and South Carolina, which is Boventy milos, and thirty por cent, of the distance 'to Knoxville, will, it is estimated, cost 58 per cont, of the whole road. Upon that portion of the line west of Clayton to Knoxville, in which we aro more direotly in- : forested, nothing aa yet has been accomplish? ed-same as before stated-the completion of the eighteen miles from Knoxville to Marys? ville, leaving a distance of 115 miles, upon whioh nothing hos been accomplished; thirty seven miles of this distance, however, to the North Carolina line, it is believed, will bo pro? vided for by the State of Tennessee, as she has, within the past two years, appropriated $250, 000 to that purpose, leaving a distance of sev? enty-eight miles m North Carolina and Geor? gia to be provided for. From Knoxville west, the Kentucky and Ten? nessee Railroad is now in partial operation, and will, it is boin vee!, be completed a', an early day to Dan viii ?, in Kentucky, from which point railroads are now in operation to Coving? ton, on the Ohi3 River, opposite to Cincinnati. In the present deranged condition of the country, it is impossible to anticipate any thing with certainty, much less the completion of a work of such magnitude as this, involving as ' it does the expenditure of millions ot dollars; ! bul the efforts now being made by tbo officers of the road an 1 the authorities of tho State >f ' South Carolina, the vital importance of its com- ' pletion to the railroad system of that State, the entire sacrifice of the millions already ex- ' pended if the road is not completed, the in? significance of the debt of the comp tay ? kss than $250,000 ) but above all tho importanTr - tact that it i - the nearest aud cheapest tra as- ! mountain connection between tho great cities ' of the Northwest and the Atlantic seaboard that has yet been projected, forbids the appre? hension of its failure. Your oommittee, then, assuming t hat the wor? will go forward, and that at no distant day it will bo completed, next direr r.<ul th fur inaniuu *.? U>*^>?^--* ...-ii reedy in view, viz : The proposed ?oad trom Athens to the Rabun Gap, and have to report, considering the topography ot the country, from the best information to bo obtained, that ; it is in the main remarkably favorable for tho - construction of a road. From within a few miles of A' hens an eleva? ted plateau or ridge dividing the waters ot the Oconee a d Broad, Rivers stretches north, upon which it is believed a road may be con? structed without crossing a stream, and at no great cost for gra.iing, passing by or near Harmony Grove to Poplar Springs, a distance ot about thirty-seven railes. At this point the spurs of the mountains ase encountered, and a detour to tue east from the almost direct line hitherto pursued becomes necessary, passing near the base of a range of hills known as i nat? tah oooheo or Crirrab.ee Ridge and a to won i les east of the village of Claikesville. The Tallu? lah River is reached a distance of about forty mues from Pop.or Springs, where the first and only stream involving any material cost for bridging and masonry is encountered ; for the remainder of the distance to ' Clayton about twelve miles, the route would pass through stretches of valleys and along the slopes ol the hills to the gap at the head of Stiooah Creek, thence to Clayton, or to the Rabun Gap, as may be found most desirable, a distance from Athens estimated to be about ninety miles. The region of coen try whioh would bc pene? trated by the road is proverbial for its salubri? ous climate and romantic scenery, and pos? sesses unrivalled water power, is well adapted to the production of the cereals, abounds in mineral wealth and heeds only accessibility to invoke skill, industry and capital to awaken it to new life and development. The .importance ox this connection as a feeder to your road, your oommittee respectful? ly suggest, oan scarcely be over estimated; to form some estimate of the increase of traffic iikoly to bc thrown over it, and the danger of oaing a large portion of that whic > it now possesses if it is not built, it is only necessary to compare the distances between Cincinnati and Augusta via Knoxville, Rabun Gap apd Athens as compared with the route via Dalton and Atlanta or Nashville and Ohatanooga. Piom Knoxville to Augusta via Athens, it is about 880 miles; via Dalton and Atlanta, it is about 380 miles -a difference of near 50 miles in favor of the former. From Cincinnati to Augusta, via Knoxville and Atlanta, is 670 miles; via Nashville and Chattanooga it is 836 miles; via Athens, it is 625 miles, making a difference m favor ot the route via Athens, as compared with the termer route ss before stated of near 60 miles, and of the latter of 211 miles. By a calculation ot distances of the routes mentioned, it will appear that a large portion ot the State will be as much interested as your road of the City of Augusta in the proposed road. Especially is this true of the interior as you progress upon the line of your road, or the rout? to Rabun Oap. where the difference in the distance for the transportation of Western products would be lessened by the proposed connection hundreds of miles. Your oommittee, in this connection, would call your attention to the fact that we cannot rest supinely upon the supposition that if this connection is not made, we will still retain our K?sent trafilo from the West over our main e from Atlanta to Augusta, for upon the completion of the Blue Ridge Road, it will pass by thei nearer and more direct route over thc Carolina roads to Charleston. Your committee have not overlooked the fact that even if th? proposed road is built, it will will be somewhat nearer from Cincinnati, via Knoxville. Rabun Gap and Anderson to Charles? ton, than between t he same points via Athens. The distance by the former route being 743 miles, sod by thc latter ?bout 768 miles, mak? ing a difference say ol' 20 miles lu favor of the former route They Would remark, however, in this connection, that if the road /rom Au? gusta to - Port Royal is built, tho difference would then be slightly in favor of tho route by Athens to the seaboard, over that by the Caro? lina Roads to Cheleston. If, however, the Port Royal Road is not built, there aro conside? ration?, in the. opinion ot y tir committee, whioh would more than counterbalance the elight differences in the length of the two lines which they beg to suggest. As has been stated in another connection. Se passage of the Blue Ridge is achieved east Clayton; as a necessary consequence, the grades upon that part of tbe hue will be very heavy, being, upon some sections, HS much ac seventy feet to the mile; whereas, upon the projected lin? from Athens to Rabun Oap, it is believed that t he grades upon no part of tho line will be heavier than that upon the line of the Georgia Railroad. The effeot of this differ? ence in erado, which is so important in the working of ali railroads, and the cost of freight? age, is too obvious to need to bo stated. Awain, the shipper by he route to Augusta has the advantage over the Shipper tb Charles? ton direct, not only or that market but of two others besides, tie has tb? ,favorite inland market of Augusta and the port ot Savannah ulno. Thut tins consideration alone will large? ly eon i roi the destination of product? seeking a ta urket, especially if there be capital to control, I inert?oanfcbe no quest?"??, nor should wezover look, in this connection, the important bearing of this route upon the traffic that must pass over it to the growing City ot Savannah, lt will be her nearest route to tho great cities*of the NoitbwoBt. Io fine, if this road is built, we shall present almost an air line route (over one hundred and fifteen miles of our present road) from Savannah and Au trusta in an almost due nor ttl wes ardly dirt ct iou to the Ohio River, where we are placed in connection by rail with St. Louis by existing roads or roads in contem? plation. A line like this, passing as it will over the most direct practicable route toits termini, de? veloping a largo extent of country now shut out from trade and commerce, and sharing the carrying trade between two geographical divis? ions of the continent, can but bo remunerativo and need fear no competition. Your oommitteo, therefore, in view of these considerations, recommend that so soon as operations aro resumed on tho Blue RKlge road, that steps be taken to have a survey made of the proposod road from Athens to Kaban Oap; that the Central Railroad be re? quested to aid in the project, and that this company co-operate with all ratios interested in any other steps that taay be deemed advis? able to secure the accomplishment of the en? terprise. Respect!'illy submitted, 8. THOMAS. D. E. UumcB. G BEEN MOOEE, ROTTEN ItO m Although up to this period of the season the Eeople who ride or drive in the Row have not een distracted by any specially sensational ponies under the direction of anonymous ladies, questionable broughams and hocse breakers bave oven thus early appeared in Hyde Park in excoss of tho number with which tho aBsomblasro is usually enlivened. But it is not so much of this cironmstauoo, however, that w : now write. In it sr lt tc is bad enough, but it is difficult to see how such people could be kept out of the parks. There is a signifi? cance, however, in another social aspect of the matter which is more imnortant. Until very recently there was no such thin? as a demi? monde in London, using the teim iu its imper? fect moaning, as understood here. Tho wretch? ed women went down rapidly from one stage to another without bei mr encouraged or systematized sufficiently to form a regular set -having establishments and holding recep? tions euch as distingu?an a corresponding class in Paris. But within a very brief period-not muob more than a year, perhaps-there has been a change among us. Previous to that time, indeed, moralists in the press complain? ed of the trank terms which young men of fashion held with such women iu places of pubho resort. This familiarity is now so muoh on the increase (as anv one who watches what goes on in the Ladies' Mile can petceivel that it calls for some remonstrance. Formerly As? pasia and bor aaaooiatea were passed with a nod, or only spoken to by men who were indif? ferent to no+ice, became they were themselves unknown, or, at any rate, it they recognized suoh women they were cautious where it was done. At present the yellow-ohignoned denizens of St. John's Wood and Pimlico draw up their carriages or horses dose to the rails, and are chatted with as Candidly a* it they had como from some dovecot in the country watched over by a virtuous mother. The audacity of these i enmon?is unprecedent? ed. A notice seems to prevail that the loose women of our day are undistinguishable from the women of virtue. The superstition is pre- ! posterous. In tho park, at least, there is no u1ffio.nlty in distinguishing the carriage that ioybo3y>1Bay. pav for or in guessing the occu? pation of the dashing emmh'imm-whtouq)***^ half a dozen men at ?uce wi tb her whip, or with a wink, and who sometimes varies the mo? notony ot a safe seat by holding' her hands be? hind her baok while graceful tv swerving over te?, listen to the cjomolu???4- -* ?f ,, * mirer, ur course Tho mon who talk with those women of the highway are perfectly aware of what they are about,' and a London lady tempered ia the atmosphere of one or two seasons learns discretion enough, not to ask relevant question* -ni?t?S i?b3> meets in (t ball-room the same gentleman eh bas observ? ed tete-a-tete with Aspasia in the Row. If things go on, however, as they seem likely to. this sort of reserve will be tested with uuvsual severity in the nu utbs of Slay and Jane. The manner in which what again, for want or a more convenient phrase, <*e' roust call the demi-monde olasB bas been freshly, developed among us is not unknown. There are certain perfumers' shops at the West-end notorious lor eu ter prises not immediately con- coted with bloom for the Ups and glitter for the eyes, It was from one of these establish? ments that a well-known photograph and ita original were, so to speak, floated. Here the loungers turn in. and are invited to balls, for whioh cards are given them. Thence spring intimacies of whioh we say no more than that the acknowledgment ot them should bc sus? pended before virtuous women in the Park. The ladies have a remedy in their hands which they deliberately abandon when they pretend blindness to what is as obvious aa the Duke's statue at the oorner. And, of course, if they choose to encourage the open and flagrant dis reapeot to whioh they are treated there ia no help for them.-Pail Mall Gazette. AN nrriBirwuz, a ia TOBIT- - OARS ESR on A JFJUtAZJS O UJERITJIJA. Nearly every pleasant day pedestrians on our principal avenues pass a dark-eyed brunette, of medium size, a plump figure, and richly dressed. In the early spring ot 1861, Sue Rite radge, a lovely girl, just returned from board? ing sohooL lived upon her father's plantation in one of the rural districts of Kentucky, that hung in a balance, uncertain whether to risk her Cate with the new "Coufeder icy, " or hang back. Boc was a frequent visitor at the ad? joining plantation of Mr. Mundy, an old gen? tleman whose wife and aon, a youngman, com? posed a happy tam ly.

Young Mundy waa at last aroused, and while being carried off a prisoner no word escaped his lips bat "Sue," When asked his name he repeated, "Sue,* probably the effects of a disordered brain.
