We have received llie following coinmnnl cation, which will doubtless interest many of our renders who propose going North or coming South, and who prefer a iand trip to a sea voyage: Savassaii, June 26 th, 1865. Mr. Editor: Asmoessar.ly much curiosi ty aid anxiety exists relative to the land route from Ne.v York, and as I have just re turned by that route, I cannot refrain from offering mv experience therein, v< ry reason ably hoping that all who may determine to avail themselves of the pleasures afforded by it may not be distppointed. THE ROUTE. Theic are four routes: One per Baltimore & Ohio Railroad; one per Pennsylvania Central Railroad; another per Erie Railroad, and the other per New York Central Riil road. Tne time of departure and the fare beinsr abont the same with all. We chose the Now York Central and came through Albany," Buffalo, Cleveland,Columbus,Xenia, Cincinnati, Louisville, Nashville, Chattanoo ga, Cat torsville, Atlanta, Augusta to Savtm nah. TIKE.

At Seymour, you change trom Ohio & Mississippi Railroad; exchang ing the most beautifully finished, elegant and comfortable cars, free from dust and well ventilated, for the indifferent and disagree able ones of the Jeffersonville and lutil umpo iis R. It to Jeffersonville, when you cross the terry in an Omnibus driven aboard the boar, thence to the Deuotor Hotel iu Louisville ; thence you take the L Nashville R. R. to Nashville and on as I have described. Or if you prefer it, you can take passage in a boat from Cincinnati to Louisville or Nashville. These boats are first class and have the very best accommodations. SCENE RT. In point of scenery, this roufc is far pref erable to the “Sea,” ot which -‘the few, the immortal fen, who ne’er were born” to ex perience that dearthly sensation -‘sea sick ness so rapturously speak ; for once outside, you behold notiiug but “water, water every - where,” until your arrival in port ; whereas, by the land route, the prospect Is varied al ternately by cities and villages and relieved by the most picturesque natural scenery. W. For the Beach-Fish Bank.— Yesterday af ternoou the smack Thomas Taylor, Captain Bliss, sailed for the Black-Fish Bank ; she will possibly return early next week, and our rnaraet will then we hope be furnished with this delicious fish. Steamships AT Tviih.E—The tug Starlight arrived last evening from Fori Pulaski. She reports at Tybee two large steamships ; one of them is no doubt the Nevada, over due from New York, and the other a transport with paroled prisoners. Personae.—Among the arrivals on the steamer Emilia we notice that of Lieut. J. B. Rife, 6th Infantry United States Army.— Lieut. Rife is stationed at Fort Pulaski and has been appointed Local Provost Marshal of that Post He has take n rcoins at the Pulaski House. The FusEßAt of Mr Wkisasd.— 'The f«- nerttl of Mr. Conrad WeigMtid, \yhiclt is to take place this morning at 10 o’clock, will be attended by the Savannah Turaverein and tl.e German Fire Company, who vyi.l follow the remains to the grave. The Savannah City Orchestra and the Band of the 6th U. S. In fantry are to ho in attendance iio Oxts If CRT.—Yesterday afternoon some urchins crawled over the wall enclosing the yard of the Chatham Artillery Armory, on the west tide of Wright Square, and placed ;a the mouth of a jthitly-two pounder gun, dismantled and lying on the ground, nqunn- Xiiy of guojVJWfler. With either a friction primer or slow match, they ignited the pow «ier, and the piece was discharged with a ioyd report. Considerable excitement was occasioned but yo one was hurt. Tho poy 3 hare commenced celebrating the Fourth of July in good season. or Ford’s Theatre.—The Young Men’s Christian Association of Washington have bought Ford’s Theatre, (where Pres ident Lincoln was murdered.) for .find, ooo. - (S*w \oitu Fwk Department.—The Volun teer tue Department of New York city, af ter resisting to the last the movement to establish a paid department, have finally been compelled to give in, as the Court of Ap- PFals, the highest judicial authorUy in the • Ui.c, nave decided in iavot of the legality of the new act. The lireinen quietlv acqui esced. ana although nt one time there were threats ol riots, there has been no trouble ns A Goon Time at White Bluff. —Yesterday a small and select party of some of the lead ing military gentlemen of the city made ar r.iugmentsto proceed to White Bluff and there enjoy a summer-day picnic. The guests j having assembled at the appointed hoar and I interchanged the usual compliment-’, the carriages were ordered and speed ily proceeded to. the selected 9pot. Immediately on arriving at the Bluff, a thoroughly excellent chowder, with all ap propriate accompaniments, was served up in elegant style under the trees. The beautiful aud shady Pines and Live Oaks formed a most delightful canopy for the convivial board ; tiie chosen place upon the bank 9 of the beautiful Vernon River being one of the most lovely spots imaginable. All the go Ml things of a wide and well spread board having been liberally paitakm ot, the company then listened to some ad mirable music from the fine Band of the 12th Connecticut Regt., which was discours ed at intervals between certain sh irtand ap propriate speeches by various members of the company There was no lack of wines, etc., and many toasts were drunk with ail the honors, the guests either sitting or stand ing ns seemed to be most convenient and comfortable. Everything passed off in the most satisfac tory manner, and the occasion was one of the utmost good feeling, not to say jollity. No one who sat by the banks of the beautiful Vernon, enjoying the delightful breeze from the forest, gazing upon the lovely waters, and listening to the strains of delicious music, but would feel that the enjoyment of such a scene in such pleasant society, is "conducive to llie promotion of sociality and good feeling be tween those who are at the same time offi cers and gentlemen.

Application, for Pardon. Among the new applications to the Pres ident for pardon arc those of Thos. W. Fleming and F. Y. Flemng, ot Georgia Hon. Joshua Hill, of Georgia, is among those recently pardoned. By the President of the United State, of America. W'herea9, by the proclamation of the Pres ident, of the 15th and 27th of April, 18GI, a blockade of certain port 9 of the United States wa9 set on foot; but whereas, the reasons for that measure have ceased to exist: Now, therefore, be it known, that I, An drew Johnson, President of the United States, do hereby declare aud proclaim the blockade aforesaid to be rescinded as to all the ports aforesaid, including that of Galves ton and other ports west of the Mississippi river, which ports will be open to foreign commerce on the first of July next, on the terms and conditions set forth in mv pr.,cluumt!uu ot the 22d of May last. It is to be understood, however, that the blockade thus rescinded was an international measure for the purpose ot protecting the sovereign rights of the United States. The greater or of the civil authori ty in the region to which it applied, and the impracticability of at once restoring that in due efficiency may for a season make it ad visable to employ the army and navy of the Uuited States towards carrying the laws into effect wherever such employment may be uecessary. In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my haud, and caused the seal of the United Stales to be affixed, Done at the City of Washington, tbi9 23d day ot June, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-five, and of the independence of the United States of America tne eiglitv-uinth.

He was distinguishedpn the Mexican war he captured Port Royal and Fernandina, and commanded in the first attack on Charleston. Alarming Fraud.. It is said that frauds to an alarming extent are being practiced upon the Government by an ingenious method of obliterating the can celling marks upon internal revenue and pos tage stamps, and which can be done so com pletely that the stamp may be used any num ber of times. A plan ha 9 been submitted to the Postmaster-General and Secretary of the Treasury, byjwhich the marks of cancella tion became indelible, or which cannot be removed without destioying tLe fees of the stamp, thus affording perfect security against farther fraud. Gold, Stocks, Cotton, &c< The stock market was dallon the 23d; but quotations improved iu the ufternoor. Governments were quiet but steady. Gold was heavy, aud sold down to i4ojin the mon - ing; but it advanced before a quarter past fiv- P. M. to 142 1-4. At night the closing quoe tationwas 142 5-8.
