The vealetr Will understand that I had no be t t)O lor.rp Ii'lous mode of locomet Ion t htni the old fashion of walking. I have not yet learned 1i ride a wheel, but I found tll roads, fo' the Izrelater part. of the Wiay. In v\ollet condition for wheel ing. 'The tlzy was lelight fil, cool with genth. brviewes, but not utileiet. to raise any d1st, And there wereV no raplidly svurrying vehieles of any kind to diAlturb the serenity of a pedetrIaH'. The whole disitanoc,e from Saluda river to Saluda was a scene of peaeo and trauquillit, and. apparently, of hali content. The farms were In good eon dition and in a good state of forward kss, alt thouglI there hail been so iuel rain in theI early planting season. I saw laliorers in all the tields. some ploughinig, somie hoeing the eottonl, Whilch, I Itosit places, hid good stands and waUs lookig well inld doing well, thouglih the mornings were thought to be rther cool. NotV forgetful of my own itd ividial, privite interest as I passed through this scene of peace and Content, I stopped at, t few houses on the way to see whether. I could engage a few eopies of the History of Edge field. I secured several ilkines, sole on the way to Saluda, somlie at Saluda, anid somec on my return to Newberry by another rolite. One placo at which I stopped I found to be the home of Mr. Iluiet,i a grandson of my old friend Ceorge Hiliet, nd his wife Dorathca, at whose imarriage supper 1 was a 'nest, uld it sonl of Mr.s. IIulet of the Crot well I Iotel. I t WaS near the dinner htou' when I stopped at Nlr. Hulet.'s, andi he and hils good lady invited mao to utiartake of the midday mieal with theml, whivh I did, and which I heartily en joyed, especially the glass of butter milk, which was dellciouS,--as good as the best, ghts of buttermilk or anything else I ever drank. After dinner, bid din,g my ost and ho.tess farewell, I re4umed my tramp. About three niles this side of Satda I was overtaken by a gentletnit I-i(ing in I littlt wagotn without antly lodtil, with a good, strong aind well-fed imtile att.n1hed. le wits oi hIs waty to aluida nd kindly gave me at seat., so that I rode the last thiree milus of the way and hid a pleasant, intelligent Companion besides. My vomipanion was Mr. Forrest, whom I founld to he very colservatiive in his views, and who had been opposed all the tite to the fortmation of the new count-y. T~sympathized with him, as I foutnd hil, like myself, always in a mitority. Aid the minority in many elases proves to he right. In the fortia tion of the Cointy of Satida I hope the matjorit.y will prov'e to lie tright. Nowv, as for' the sittuatlott of the town of Saluida, I like It, 1 doublt whether a lov'el ier or more eli gible site could be foutnd with it t,hte limits of the county. The lnd is tnot level, nor1 is It abrutpt,ly rough and broken atnd hilly, but has jutst suchi a gentle slopie as to be easily kept cleani and1 nteat. As the towna gr'ows and the inihabitants inctrease in niumber, if they do not sadly tneglect the sewerage of tihe place0, they catn make it one of t.he lovelIest, atnd health lest, towns in t.he State. 1'Te water at pre'sdent is pertfct, atnd only l)'pror sewerage can~ keep It so. I thought we had sonie good water at Newvberry be sides the tnewly borcd atrteslan well, for we have somfe wvells which atre dug thr'ough granite rock which had to be blasted long before water was reached, butt the Staluda waber' is so limpid antd clear anid sweet as to far' excel an~y that we have in taste atid refreshing quali ties. Theli cour t house tand jail I sawv on tihe outtside onily. I did not inspect the in ter'nal artratngemients.

I took it, for granted that these butild intgs are so constructed, atnd tnot being a grand-juror unor' one of the commissioners of public buildings, I pased Mondtay tnightt very leas ant,ly with ati old friend atnd some titme comrade during the late warLI, who was wounded at Atlanta July 28th, 1864, anid .aken pi)'sonter and( had1 quite a valried1 experience ats p)risoner.
