In the East, every thing looks more and
more like a general war. No naval or
military action had occurred, but-political
events of the highest importance are being
ddeveloped. In reply to the autograph let.

rumored that England has sent a linal ant

partaking of a nice, hot breakfast, of sh:d,
eggir:, &c., at friend lrr1 ioett.t.'s ioapitit
lle Ilarliee lieue, we took our seat, with
rome seventy or eighty others, ini the W.
& 31. cars, at peauct; with ourselves anrd all
the rest of manikind, anid shoved tll' for Co
Iulubia. We had luite n pleasant ride of
it. When We riacited the \Vaterece
Swamp w\e Were wide awake to see what
datmages the late frehuot had done to
our- roat. lint, with the exception of a
little hnrrting up of the platformn, at. 1he
jUnction of the ('auntden, branch, we cut11d
scarcely tell that, a few days before, all
was out vast sea of rush iig waters in that
nlow peaceful and quiet swamp. We had
heard a great nl:iy persons complaining
about their detention a few lays before,
and all seemed to ag-ee that a new and
higiher and stronger trestle ought to be
built across this swamp. We noti cei and
iiade intiiries about this mit.ter and can
sitte for the infrntation of all interested,
and to stop the nouths of the whining
and coinplaining, that the W. & 31. [tail
toad Coinpanv have taken this matter in
hanel (anl this, it itself, outsht to he a suf
licient guarantee that it will he well done)
and are not 'nly goiig to build a good tres
tie. but have actuIally begun one. The
track is already being prepared-the pile
driver is there, in the stvainp, and they are
onluy waiting to get a little good weather to
hiava. as sa iling over t here eight or ten feet
high in air. When we reached the (o.
lutnbia and Sout hi Carolina HIadi itiad, I
there was sote little delay in conveyinL
the mail and haaggage across the wash in
that road, but it was sooin over, and all on
their way again-sonme to Charleston and
some to Coilmbia. We were surprised to
see how little damage the trestle of the
South Carolina Rai it Road had sustained,
after hearing smune of the exagerated re
otrts of the injury to this road, which had
been in circulation a day or two before.
Vhen we were there, a wee; amgo, the in
jury was almost repaired, and the day after
the cars ran over as usual. We have
made ip onur mHind to put n, faith in report
hereafter, especially ins Rail Road reports.
