, The Blue Bidge B&ilroad.
The necessity for finishing this enterprise as
far as Clayton, Georgia, is becoming more apparent
ever)* day. If South Carolina will push it
forward to that point, we are satisfied that the
people of Georgia will build the Iliwaasee Road
to Cleveland, Tennessee, and that make it profit*
rble nt once to this State. If necessary, let the |
Knoxviile route be abandoned for the present, \
Hltd build llifl lliwmuWA Rnsd (is far na tlu? snimsr .
mines in Tennessee. Whenever thai Road ie j |
built, it will enrich tlie State, and make the a
Greenville aud Colamhin Railroad, which is now ,
in as good running condition as any in thtflSouth, ,
as profitable as the State Road In Georgia.' We j
ehnR continue to advocate the building of the ,
IUuo Ridge Railroad to Clayton, believing it to
be to the interest of the State, and to the people ,
of Greenville especially. South Carolina must (
and will have a connection with the West. If |
the Blue Ridge is abandoned, the .Spartanburg j
route will be taken up, and the people of Greenville
arc certainly not so blinded to their own
welfare as not to see what llieir condition would
be, if the North Carolina trade, which is now
the very life of our business, is diverted to Spartanburg,
Union, and other Districts east of us.
Tlu advantages of the Hiwaweo route are so
fully aud impartially set forth in Gov. Johnson's
veto meseage, that weinteml to publish that document
next week. It will be reMtcmbered that ,
the Dill to charter una rosa was twice vetoed by
Gov. Joux&ox, but it was afterwards sanctioned
by Gov. Bbow.n, and we have no doubt will be
speedily built after the Blue Ridge Road is finished
to Clayton.
As we have been proscribed by a few for ov.r
position on this subject, we publish tlic following
letter iroin a subscriber, in the eastern part
of this District, and less interested, perhaps, in
the'Blue Uulge Road than hundreds of our citizens
: .
" W. P. Pbick, Esq.?Editor Southern Enterprise:
I have lived to the age of forty six years, and
have, at this time, taken up my pen, for the first
time, to write for a newspaper. 1 saw in your
Jiaper week before last, that, a subscriber had or- <
lered his paper stopped, because you had expressed
the opinion that " in the present aspect
of things, the Blue Ridge Railroad would be
built, and the sooner the better." I heartily express
the sauie opinion with yon, and would like
to see editors advocating alt.such enterprises
that. I have been surprised to see men of infincnce
sit still and do nothing about that Road,
after there has been so much money spent, and
then to let the enterprise fail. Well, Mr. Editor,
for every subscriber you lose by advocating thAt
Road, I will ttse my influence to obtain another.
I now liAve one for you, in place of the one you
have l< at. So speak lond for .railroads. I have
been taking your paper for two years, and I'm
wot tired yet. - Yours, truly,
" A SUBSCRIBER."

Whereas, civil dissentient bare distracted our

when the latter should not only think, but ael:
Ami, whereas, we conceive that the,.excellency of
all governments consists in independence, solely established
hy solf-reliance : Ami, whereas, ere long i
our fathers must pay the common debt of nature,
leaving to the youth, who now crowd our colleges, (
th>' rpius of government; therefore, (

to the extent of our limited ability, hom.vtnanufactorios,

well acquainted with everything, and almost
everybody, ha to to the stranger; a valuable <
Mead. I tab* opportonity of thus pabliely
teudering to him my thanka for many favors received
at hie hands: and would advise all persons
coming to this city, to tnks one of the sevo- '
rsl omnibuses which run to tho Screven House,
satisfied that they will not regret their eholee.
The readers of the Bnierpriss will, no doubt,
m surprised to learn how quickly the trip can be
made from Greenville to this place. Leaving
Greenville at 4 o'clock, A. M., on Monday morning,
I reached Savannah Tueeday (yesterday)
morning at half past ? o'clock, stopping one
hour and a half in Augusta. The whole distance?which
la something over four hundred
miles?was aecoraidished in about twenty-six
hours. The Greenville road is in moat excellent
running order, and eo well la it being managed,
that wo seldom hear of any accident upon the
road. The conductors are all clever aod obltging
gentlemen. What we have said in regard to
the Greenville road, Is equally the condition of
iliiaga upon the South Carolina road. We cannot
say as much coneerniug the Angu^p and
Waynesboro' road to Mitten. This may be accounted
for by the absence of tbe eonductor, whoit
appears, was prevented by a combination of
circumstances from reaching the depot in lime.
Uis place was supplied by a young ninn who enjoyed
the comforts of the only fire on board, and
that was in the mail ear where travelers were
prevented from going. The Centml Road, which
we took at Millcn, is n fine road, and is, perhaps,
doing the moat lucrative business of any rail
road in the Sonth. The denot of thia roa/1 in
Savannah, is, ! learn, the largest railroad dc|>ot
in the United States?covering an area of about
acres.
Savannah, at this season, is doing a large business.
The merchants have imported largely, and |
I am pleased to perceive that merchants in Geor- I
gla, and particularly those in the South-western i
portion of the State, and in somaeounties of Ala- |
bam a and Florida, are procuring their goods here.
As a cotton market. Savannah stands next to
Mobile, and Mobile is equalled only by New
Orleans. I was somewhat surprised to learn
that Savannah exported more cotton than |
Charleston, but from the information before mo, |
[ ain satisfied that such is the case. i
Politics are discussed in all places and at all |
Limes. Whilst I write, the Democratic State ?
Convention is being held at Milledge.ville, to send I
Delegates to the Charleston Convention. The <
it a to is sotrtCwhat divided as to the nominee of 1
he Convention. Cobb and Stephens appear to i
tave about an equal number of fricuds; but my ?
mpression is, that neither will receive exceeding i
ten votes at Charleston. Stephens is to be pre- t
perrcd. As to reliability, there is as much of this t
article in the composition of a Washington letter- i
irriter as in Ilowell Cobb. It is certain, how 1
sver, that Georgia willaupport the nominee, even I
if it be Douglas, who, by the way, is a favorite <
with many leading men in the State. I
Considerable disaffection exists as to the high i
rates of board to be charged during the sitting '
jf the National Convention. Arrangements are |
being made here and in Augusta to charter boets i
lor the accommodation of Delegates and other*, i
In this way I understand that the expense will <
not Exceed fifty dollara for the round trip. i
Beyond all question, the city of Savannah beat* i
all places I have ever eeeu for rand. It is very
fine?more like dust than anything else. It ia
impossible to walk the streets, particularly at this
time, without becoming covered with it. Almost i
everything appears to partake of it The cili
tens of Savannah, generally, have sandy hair,
sandy complexion, and it may be that there is
sand in the cotton, (this is quite an evil in some
places,) and for aught 1 know, there may be a
slight sprinkling of sand in the augar?particularly
that which is kept exposed before tbo retail
grocery stores. There are some things, ho ?.
ever, about Savannah, which are not to be found
in all places. 1 allude to its open squares, which
are to be scattered throughout the city. These are
generally enclosed, and are well adapted for the
sports of children, being covered with grass and
shaded by trees?the Pride of China being principally
used. In some of the principal streets
shade trees are .planted in the middle or centre,
thus affording a pleasant w alk at all times of the
day.
The squares, or parks, above alluded to, are
much resorted to in the afternoons, being free
frotn the noise nnd dust which prevails in other
portions of the city. In Monterey Square is a
magnificent monument to " Count Pulaski, the
neroic roic, who ten, mortally wonnaM, lighting
for American liberty, at the siege of Savannah,
8th October, 1778* The following description,
which i* taken from a lute number of l)eBow's
lie view, is a very'good one, mid 1 take the liberty
of copying it: M On one side is the representation
of a soldier loosing his life fighting; wounded,
he falls from his horse, while still grasping
his sword. The Coo tof-Arms of Poland and
Georgia, surrounded by branches of laorels, ornaments
the cornice on two sides; they stand
together, while the eagle, emblem of Liberty, Independence
and Courage, rests on both, bidding
proud defiance?the eagle being the symbolic
bird of Poland and America. The cannon reversed
on the enrners of the die are emblematical
of military losa and mourning, while they
give the monument a strong military character.
The shaft is surmounted by a highly elaborate
cap, which adils lofiineas and grandenr to the
atrueture. The whole is surmounted by a statue
of Liberty, holding the American flag. The
parlnmlA surrounding tue eoiniun, show that
Liberty, now, is a young And bloorog maiden
surrounded by flowers." The monument is of
marble, and is a handsome and elaborate work
of art. Altogether, it is oae of the moat beautiful
and imposing monuments i hare erer seen,
and reflects the greatest credit upon the patriotism
and generosity of the citizens of Savannah.?

And now a word or two about the celebrated
Jsrpwr Spring, a desire to aee which led me first
to vitit the nureery about which 1 have hoen
writing. Tho rpot Is memorable from tho fact,'
that there, eeveral American prisoners were,
during the revolutionary wur, rescued from the
British guard, by dcrgeonte Jasper and Nesrton.
The story ie familiar to almost every school boy.
1 remember having read it when n mere lad in
the life of Gen. Marion, and have alwaye longed
to stand upon the spot which witnessed a deed
so full of patriotism and disinterested love of
Iiome, of friend* #nd country. Serjeant Jaaper
belonged to the td South Carolina Regimentand
whilst out upon one of his excurxions, -when
the Britieti were In tha poMCMlon of Savannah,
and bad earapa in different part* of the country,
be heard the distressing complaint* of tbe wife
of one of tbe prieonera?a Mr*. June*. Her husband
wu confined in irona, with other prieonera,
and waa, the next morning, to be removed to
Savannah to be hanged. All th* aympalbica of
hla heart war* arouaed in behalf ot the prieonera,
and he determined to rcaena them at (be riek of
Ma own life. Ha waa accompanied by Sergeant
Newton?a bold and daring man?and concealing
themaelve* in the bushe* near the apring, at
which they supposed the guard would atop,
they awaited their coming. Only two of the
guard were left with the prisoner*?the other*,
leaning their gnn* against a tree, went to the
pring, whieh 1 take to be about forty atepafrom j
die road. At tliia nument, Jasper and Newton,
ipringing from their concealment, seised two of |
.begun*, shot tbe two sentinels, and took possesion
of ilie remaining arms and the prisoners.?
rise guards, tlir.s disarmed, were powerless, and
nimediatcly surrendered. The American prison- 1
irs bad their chains removed, and musket* placed '
fl ilwir linn.la n/1 |ou?anm ia* insn t
liana of lh? British guard, who were taken the <
text day, as prisoners of war to Perrysburg '
where the Americau troops were eucuinp**!.? 1
iVe can imagine the hnppinese of the wile when ,
ler husband was returned to her and kie little
children, and for this noble deed, the American 1
people will always bless the name of Jasper, J
s ho never In hiaJife, injure*) a foe unneeesaarilj. i
I'he spring is a monument to his bravery ; and
Jie tall oaks, which still overshadow it, are the
witnesses of one of the most heroic deeds which
sre recorded in our nation's history. 1 have drsnk
jf the bright crystal water that flows from the
spring, and fee) all Uie better from having visited
a spot so memorable in the history of tlioee times
which tried men's soul*.
There are other places of interest about Savannah,
but I have been unable to visit them,
from want of time, lids city was founded in
1733 by Gen. Ogletliropc. It stands upon a
bluff, forty feet above low-water. A person can
step from the street into the fourth-story of the
houses <?n the side next to the river. The city is
abon eighteen miles from the Atlantic Ocean,
ar . is, from the very nature of its location, free
.rom inundation. It is subjeet, I ke Charleston,
to the yellow fever, hut, at ail other seasons, it
is considered quite a healthy place. I shall
leave to night, at. 11 o'clock, for Augusta, where
I expect to remniu a day, and from which point
I will again write. W. I*. P.
