The citizens of South*CtroHna, and par ticularly those of the central parts of the state, as being more immediately interest* J ed, are requested to turn^their attention, and their enquiries, to the subject pf Stem Navigation. It is believed that the Santee | JSiver, as high atltastastfte shoal kn6Wn by the name of HichaidSon's Fails, fs bet ter adapted to the navigation of a Steam Boat than either the Savannah, wjiich is but little more .than half the size of the Santee ; better than the Mississippi, which has nearly douhle the. v*kooty..of_ciirrcnt? and which aDoands with' innumerable raits" of timber, and sunken trees ; and far bet ter than the Ohfo which abounds with I shoals, sand bars, and sawyers yet all those last mentioned rivers are Successful ly navi gated by Steam Boats. ysM South t* i* u.l * Carolina quietly remain behind states in availing herself of the m meats* fcf advantages laudable ?prize ?
