ALICE. OCEAN STEAM TRANSPOSTATION. The traveller in the South is always oppress? er! by the comparative scarcity of passengers In tbe cars; but be must be reminded of ber valuable freights in tbe. great products of ber soO. In a period of time equal in duration to the ooo .hundred days of Napoleon's great cam? paign^'the Southern cotton belt alone furnishes to the world 3,500,000 boles of cotton, o? say four hundred pounds weight, equal to seven hun? dred thousand tons, whlca furnishes tonnage for one hundred and twenty-five thousand or? dinary railroad cars, and cargoes to an annual fleet offourteen hundred steam ships and pack? ets, of the capacity of five hundred tons of cot? ton each, and valued In the markets of the -world at about $300.000,000 of money. This enormous bulk of raw material enters so Largely Into th?- thousand and one wants of .^anftinu:, th ut the question of Its cheap and ' expeditious handling from the gin-house to the most distant points of the compass ls becom? ing, season by season; a question of impor? tance. ?!.. No'element of Southern strength is so hope? ful us the facility and cheapness with which -railroads can be built over her flat country, 1 especially across her cotton fields, and as the current of trade from tho Interior naturally jj flow to the seek by the shortest or most conve ' nient lines, the succ?s of any Southern seaport -Its Interior railroad facilities secured-must depend in a considerable degree upon its sea ? facilities. Twenty-five years ago, the first successful coastwise steamship was constructed. The .'Southerner," , so well remembered, fulfilled her mission ia quarter of a century ago. New { York was reached soonest by a sea voyage of 'sixty hours, and this-pioneer steamship of which 1 we : speak, was built tor those long-ago times, . had extensive passenger, accommodations and " only limited freigh t-room, and lt was intended to attract travel from a tiresome and longer ...... overlaid route to this new sea-line, and to furnish to small cargoes of expensive mer chandLse a high-priced, but speedy delivery. Tnis enterprise was so successful, that up to the time of the war all coasting steamships were built upon this idea of high-priced freights and stylish accommodations, and hence lt has happened that such vessels, occupying the Southern ports, and in the hands bf ?apitalists unwilling, with their old steamers on band, to recognize the neto situation developing around them, have kept back that progressive spirit in ? steam service on the coast which has cabled ; tins ArUantic, cut the Suez Canal, built tbe Pa ' elfie. Railroad, and has, np to a recent date, left untouched the grand scheme of improved . steamships tor the great Southern cotton 'trade, we are glad to see men of action are nbnr moving on thu neglected subject of im? proved steamships. - Twenty-five years ago,' the wheat crop of the Northwest was cut with reaping hooks: to-day, twenty times the area is harvested by Improv? ed Implements, and at a tithe or the cost; 'and as in the matter of harvesting crops, the ' modern farmer takes advantage of twenty-five " years' experience In science and machineries, SO in the field of sea-transportation tho intel? ligent merchant has achieved results which aie really marvellous, both in respect to the material of construction and in model. Twen? ty-five years ago, wood was the only material .. used in snip building; to-day, science, advanc .' lng from triumph to triumph, proclaims that ; iron ls the best and most economical material. Twenty-five years ago, deep draft vessels, now Btmposed to be a necessity for safety and speed, and steamships were constructed on a draft of I 15 feet to make the run from New York to ' Charleston lightship in fifty-two hours, there "'towart eighthours for the tides' to cross the bax; to-day. so wonderfully have our processes been Improved, that iron steamships, drawing 10} feet water, loaded With 500 to 6Q0 tons ol merchandise or cotton, which is lour times the capacity of the old -'Southerner," dome and go without waiting inside or outside the bar on old Neptune. The presence in our port of the new and elegant side-wheel steamships -'Ten? nessee'' and --South Carolina,'' Inaugurates a new era In ocean steam transportation; here are brought into unrivalled combination -First, grvit security, by reason of water? tight compartments: 6econd, unequalled freight capacity, each ship being able to move 2500 to 300Q bales of cotton; third, passenger accommo? dations, in elegant suites ol state-rooms, all on deck, no descending by awkward staircases Into small, bot berths, with a six Inch diameter _.opening for ventilation, and that likely to be closed lr a light drizzle sets in; fourth, light draft of water, which avoids all detention at -the entrance to this port. Water-tight com? partments bring low rates of insurance. Large capacity guarantees low rates of freight. State? rooms on deck invite travel. Light draft of I Vater avoids all possible chance ol delay. These are some of the qualities which these new iron steamships possess. Every farmer, who raises a baie or cotton or brings to his ig service a new implement for his crop, is inter? ested. Every consumer of dry goods, cloth? ing, hats, shoes, groceries and provisions should be in alliance with, a line ol'steamships to the great metropolis of New York, which carries, In its progressive career, such ele? ments of economy and succor as these steam? ships evidently combine. 1 We commend them to the public, and need -"only mention in connection that this line is managed In Charleston by Messrs. Wagner, . Huger A Co., and Mr. Wm. A. Courtenay, ' Union wharves, as all who read this must know-the always present --red and white" posters, displaying a flag witn a strange de? vice, al hotels, depots and corners, on tele? graph posts and fencing, reminding the public of the tact that the symbol of this line is "not hld under a bushel." WRECKED IN A MARSH. Almost a Tragic Incident. The Savannah Advertiser, of Tuesday," says: "Yesterday morning ag the steamer Carrie, on -ber. way to this city from Augusta, had reached a point on the river, about thirty n?les above here, those on board discovered a man standing In the marsh, on thc Carolina aide of the river. He waived his hand for as slstanca, when Captain Johnson immediately . headed the Carrie in that direction. The man, -ffhose name we did not learn, was a German, and was unable to help himself on board from utter exhaustion and starvation, having occu? pied the position in the swamp, in which he wa? ? .and, fur several days, without a mouth? ful of food. After being taken on board the steamer, theonly information that could be de? rived from him was to the effect that he had come from Grahamville, 8. C., to this city, lo see tffo parents of some giri he intended mar? rying. It appears that he had walked all the way, and was ferried across the Savannah River, from the Carolina to the Georgia shore, by a colored man, in a batteau. Upon his re? turn to the point of the river where he was to meet the colored man to take him across again, he was unable to find him, and so un? moored the boat and undertook tc navigate himself. When he had nearly crossed the river the boat was snagged and its occupant Erecipitated into the stream. He managed, owever, to reach a point of marsh, where he remained until taken off by the Carrie, but for the prompt arrival of which, the man would no doubt have perished, as the main land on the Carolina side was between two and three miles from him. On his arrival here he was placed in a wagon and sent to the hospital. COMMERCIAL XEW8. .Exports'.

CHANGE That any'Bick man survived the treatment of fifty years ago, mast be considered a proof thatlhumantbemg8 are very hard to kin The lancet, calomel, cantharides and drastic pur? gatives were then the order of the day. The phy? sician played into the hands of the apothecary, and the nnfo-tnnate patient was drenched morn? ing, noon and night with prostrating medicines. We live in a more rational and conscientious era. The Importance of supporting Nature in Its conflict with disease ls now understood. Complaints in themselves weakening are no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They are met with TONICS that rally the vital powers and enab'e them to de? feat the enemy. Chief among these allies of Na? ture, in its battles with sickness, ls PLANTATION BITTERS. This wonderful vegetable restorative 1B the sheet anchor of the feeble and debilitated. As a cordial for the aged and decrepid it has no equal among stomachics. As a remedy for the nervous weakness :o which the tender sex are especially subject.it ls superseding every other stimulant and nervine. In all climates, tropical, temperate or frigid, lt acts as a specific in every species of disorder which undermines the bodily strength and breaks down the animal spirits. Wherever U ia introduced it becomes a standard article -a medicinal staple. Druggists, although their profit upon lt ls small, "^fnd lt absolutely necessary to keep a preparation for which everybody Inquires, and for which nobody will, accept a substitute. It is to-day the mosi popular medicine In the civilized world. Extensively as it ls advertised, its best ad? vertisement ls the beneficial result which | uniformly follows its use. Every bottle sold In? sures the sale of at least half a dozen more. Un like other stimulants, it braces and fortifies the system without exciting undue cerebral action, The cheering effect which it produces upon the mind ls not momentary, but permanent. There is no eubseqnent depression. It does not, os Is the case with all other 6timull, beget a craving for ex? citants. On the other hand, lt soothes and calms the nerve?, com bin lng,st range as the anomaly may seem, thoqualities of a sedative and gentle ano, dyne with those of a tonic and lnvigorant. The perfect purity of all its ingredients, their admirable adaptation to the purposes they arc Intended to subserve, the judicious pro portions In which they are combiL".'d, and I the scientific skill with which they are blend? ed, render this famous article at once the most potent and the most harmless of all known tonics and alteratives. Sold by all Druggists. apr26 iUiec?Uaneon?. JJ A VIS ? MILLER'S FLAVORING EXTRACTS IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. GREAT REDUCTION IN PRICES. QUALITY STILL FURTHER IMPROVED. We beg leave respectfully to call the attention of the public to Our Superior Flavoring Extracts. As ten years have now elapsed since we first in? troduced them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem it unnecessary at present to enter into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac. There is hardly a eity or town of any note in the country into which they have not fonnd their way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally Increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and intrinsic worth. ' Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts of the day, we bave still further Improved their qnality, and now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that they stand without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed Tor richness and delicacy of flavor. It ls a strictly pare and high? ly concentrated Extract of Vanilla Beans. In short, we think it the best that ls made, at least, this is the decision of the best Judges In the conn try. We don't pretend to compete in price with many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day, which are really bat worthless compounds, undeserving of the name.
