Notice of the Tockoa and Tallula Palls , in Georgia , by A. Poster, (Communicated for Siliman’s Journal.) In a southern excursion duriug the au tumn of 1827, I visited the Table Moun tain, in Pendleton, S. C. and the Tockoa and Tallulah Falls, in Habersham, Geor gia. Those only who have visited this in teresting section of our country, can justly appreciate the beauty and magnificence, and the wildness and sublimity of the irutu ral scenery around the southern termina tion of the Blue Ridge. It is now in my power to gratify the curi osity of my northern friends, by describing everything that delighted or astonished our little party of travellers. But to the admi rer of his Creator’s works, never yet in their native richness and variety, described bv the geographer, sketched by the artist or sung by the poet, permit a traveller to recommend an excursion, along the western and mountainous border of North & South Carolina, and Georgia. If you have ima gined southern scenery to be tame and uni form, your disappointment, like my own, will be most gratifying and complete. A brief sketch of the two principal Falls, is all that will, at this time, be attempted. Tockoa F ill is in a small creek of the same name, just before it runs into the Tugalou, one hundred and fifty miles above Augusta. The perpendicular fall is one hundred and eighty-six feet measused by a line. It s surrounded by no wild scenery. The rivu let disturbed by no rapids, moves with a gentle current, and drops without warning into a beautiful basin below expanding into fine rain before it reaches the bottom ; and the breeze which always plays there spreads a thick spray around, and ornaments the falling water, the rock and shrubbery, with rainbows A carriage road is within a stone’s throw of the fall, and our party rode to the base and to the summit of the pre cipice. Two beach trees grow near the base, which are so closely covered with names down to the ground, that he who will catve his own, must intrude upon a present occu pant. Old venerable names have been ob literated to give a conspicuous position to some young aspirant for immortality.— These beaches, said a lady of our party, are the political world in miniature. The Tockoa produces a sensation rather of the beautiful than sublime—it pleases, but it does not terrify—it satisfies, but does Dot overwhelm our expectatian. It is a fine preparation for the tremendous scene ry which awaits the traveller sixteen miles northward. The rapids of Tallulah are in Georgia, ten miles above the union of the Tallulah and Chatooga rivers, which form the Tu galou, five mil jf from South Carolina, and about twenty miles from the line of North Carolina The river w hich is 40 yards wide above the rapids, is forced, for a mile and a fourth, through a range of mountains, into a channel scarcely tiventy feet broad. The mountain receives the water into a broad basin, surrounded by solid rock, one hun dred feet in height. Here the stream pauses in anticipation of the awful gulf—then rush es down a cataract 40 feet—then hurrying through a narrow winding passage, dashing from side to side against the precipice, and repeatedly turning at right angles, is preci pitated one hundred feet—and in a moment after fifty feet more—and then making many short turns, it rushes down three or four falls of twenty and ten feet. The sum of the fall in the distance of a mile, is esti mated at 350 feet. The rapids, however splendid, apart from the sublimity with which they are sur rounded, are only an apendage to the stu pendous banks ot solid rock, descending almost perpendicularly to the water on Doth sides of the river, and varying in the dis tance of a mile, from seven hundred to one thousand feet in height, so that the Stream literally passes that distance through the mountain, or rather through the high lands that connect two mountains. The visiter approaching from the west finds an easv descent for the last mile, and drives his carriage to the very edge of the gulf. No unusual appearances (if pointed rocks or brokeu lands admonish him that the Rapids are near, till suddenly he sees the opening abyss. He advances cautiously from tree to tree, till he looks down upon the water. Instantly his mind surrenders itself to the overwhelming sensation of awe and amazement. He neither speaks nor smiles—and even a jest or smile from a friend is painful to his feelings ; which par ticularly with the ladies, (as at Niagara falls) are often relieved by weeping. Some of the company hurrying down to the brink without giving the mind time to collect it self, experienced dizziness and faiutness, and were obliged to crawl back. Here are no artificial embellishments.— The scenery wears the artless robe of na ture’s wildness. The romantic variety, magnificence and sublimity of Jehovah’s works are untouched by human hands.— The Rapids are in the bosom of a forest, in which are seen burrows of foxes and dens of rattlesnakes, and in which are heard the howlings of wolves, and the screaming of ©agles—there the wild deer bound grace fully through the small bushes, and pass the trees rifted by lighmiug. In front of the spectator the perpendi cular face of the rock on the opposite shore presenting an endless variety of figures and colors—brown, white, azure and purple— overhanging, receding, angular and square surfaces—figures, in bass relief, ornament ed with shrubbery—small rivulets, falling in graceful cascades and wn the precipice— the opening abyss lined will* massive rock —the foaming, roaring water, at the bot t >m encircled by rainbows, all seen at one view, produce sensations unutterable. The feeling once enjoyed you desire no recall, but it can be recalled only bv placingyour self again upon the spot. Nor does the scenc?ry lose its powers by long and minute examination 1 lingered about the Rapids three days, and the effect was rather heigh- tened by new discoveries, than weakened by familiarity. The most magnificent general view is fn;tn a part of the precipice which projects over the abyss twenty feet, and which is gained by a descent of fifteen feet. This is hi if win between the commencement and termination of the Rapids, near the highest part of the mountains through which they pass, not less than one thousand feet above he water, and affords the best view of the second and third falls, one of which is al most under the projection. Our company had just gained this site, sufficiently agita ted with our situation, w hen instantly a peal of thunder burst over us, and the rain des cended upon us. The young ladies took shelter under a projecting bank, from which one step might have precipitated them one thousand feet into the foaming river ; the rest of the party crowded under a single umbrella, upon the point of the overhang ing rock. The rock-house, formerly the entrance of the Indian’s paradise, but now the eagle s habitation, was before us—ilie earth in front, and on either hand, opened wide and deep—over us roared the thun der—under us, at about the same distance, were seen and heard the pouring and dash ing of the cataracts—“heaven’s artillery played around—and the wind swept by, with great violence. At this moment, a large pine near us was rifted by the light ning, and its trunk entirely splintered to the ground. Echo answered echo from side to side, rumbling long and loud, through the caverns of the broken mountains. We all trembled, and looked on each other in si lence. The ladies sustained the shock with unexpected equanimity, and kept their places In half an hour the cloud passed over—the wind slept—the sun casting its brilliant rainbows about the falls, spread over the wilderness a mild and enchanting serenity, and we pursued our discoveries with augmented interest. Th is however was the most sublime and awful hour of my life Perhaps few have ever been favored w ith a display more mag nificently impressive of the power and pre sence of Omnipotence. Heaven and earth seemed to display their most terrific opera tionsand conspired to make us feel our own feebleness. The R ork House is an entrance appa rently ten feet square, leading into the per pendicular face of the rock, too far down the side to be accessible We were informed by the guide, of an Indian tradition, that this is the door of paradise They had frequently traced their lust companions to this spot, aud could never hear of them again; situ e which, no Indian has been known to hunt alone near the Rapids of Tallulah. At present the less superstitious eagle finds this a safe retreat to rear her young. There are places of descent to the edge of the river; two of these meet a ihe same place, and ihe other leads to the bot tom of the upp*r Fall. The other falls have been approached very seldom, and only by fording up the stream Both descents can not easily be performed the same day : ihe upper one to the fall, is the most interest ing. To look out at the opening of this deep gulf pays the excessive fatigue of the lower descent but the view from several positions above, produces the most en chanting eff er of grandeur and sublimity. At these Rapids, I very forcibly felt the influence, by which the primitive worship pers selected grand and terrible scenes as the most favorable places to hold converse with the. Deity. The mountain s top—tho deep valley—the base of the waterfall—and the mouth of the grotto, were selected by the rude inhabitants of untaught nations as the dwelling place of a presiding divinity. I left this place with an unsatisfied curi osity, convinced that a year might have been consumed in examining every object interesting to a scientific traveller. In preferring the Rapids to the Table Mountain, as 1 decidedly do, in common with many of superior taste in scenery, I would object to no part ot the admiration so justly and so latgely bestowed on the atter. Ech presents scenes like no other in the United Slates ; the one is so per fectly unlike the other, .and both are so remarkable that a visit to the one, in no respect, supersedes the propriety of seeing the other. The effect from the top of the Table Rock is one unmixed overwhelming sensa tion of the sublime, as the spectator walks along the edge of the sloping precipice for the third of a mile, his mind demands time for expansion, to receive the full influence of its new situation. This is accomplished by tixing the attention on each object sepa rately—the falls of Slicking before him— the plantations below him—the mountains around him, and thct broad bosom of the forest spreading every way : but the effect of the precipice under him prevails over all other emotions. As the spectator walks half a mile under the precipice, the height of which is at t’.iis distance about seven hun dred and thirty feet, and the base of which contains a narrow path, mid way between the summit and base of the mountain, a variety of emotions is enjoyed too com plex to be definitely described. Objects pleasing novel, beautiful and sublime are every moment demanding his attention. On the sumo it .his countenance is grave his words few, and his imagination strongly excited. At the base bis countenance is lighted up, and his conversation animated and brilliant. F>r bis visit to the summit he feels rewarded, and bis mind has ex panded. With his visit to the base he is more than satisfied ; he is delighted ; his feelings have been kindled—the company are endeared to him, & on retiring he says, ‘no day of my life has passed more agreea bly or moie profitably.” The best judges, however, unanimously express a preference for the rapids of Tallulah. As atthe Table M ountain, so also two days at least , should be devoted to ihe Rapids. Mud Cieek Fall is twenty miles north of Tallulah. I did not visit it, but was in formed 1 bat the whole fail of the cataract, is two bundled and eighty feet; that it is a large creek, aud the effect eminently inter esting. The Curribee Mountain, one mile from the Tockoa Fall, affords a rich reward for the toil of gaining its summit. On the north is a view of the Blue Ridge, surpassed in its prospect of “mountains piled on moun tains,” H erhap* by no other site in the Uni ted States. On the South Georgia and South Carolina, with the exception of a few plantations on the Tugalon, presents one unbroken forest as far as the eye ex tends As you traverse this forest you will sometimes see splendid situations insulated from the rest of the world, the fertile val leys, surrounded by the conveniencies, the elegancies, and the domestic retirements of social life. The fertility of the soil, the sa lubrity of the climate, the vicinity of boat navigation ; in a word, every natural ad vantage unites to persuade us that cultiva ted plantations, elegant and happy homes, and spires of churches may be seen from the Currehee, as they are now from tho top of Mount Holvoke. REMARKS. The mountain rock through which the Tallulah passes, is of a dark grey, sometimes approaching a blue color. The firsf bed of rocks, descending perhaps one hundred and fifty feet, is irregularly broken into masses of all forms and sizes ; then succeed others with long parallel seams, dipping in a regular line with the fall of the river. These rest upon a third class of rocks, solid and of a light grey, which form the bed of the stream. Thfe Indians say that no fish, (not even the smallest minnow.) are found above the Rapids. Springs impregnated with lime and iron are found in the vicinity. Allum and a hill contain ing a mineral resembling coal, are situated be low the Rapids A few white pine and hemlock trees grow upon the Rapids They are the only trees of the kind which I have seen in South Carolina or Georgia, gentlemen from both these states were of our par ty, who had never before seen the species. None of our company had seen the spruce pine in these states. We noticed eight species of oaks, white, red, black, Spanish, post, black-jack, chesnut and live oak. From the Charleston Mercury. Sir T propose to show in this letter that, if there is capital sufficient in this place, it could be more profitably vested in the establishment of Factories, than in any other way To establish Factories three things are to be considered —lst, the Capital, 2d, the Power, and 3d, the Profit. Ist. The Capital. —Though capital in this place is not distributed among the peo ple at large, there is more than necessary in the hands of a few monied men, whose patriotism it ought to he, and whose inter est it would be, to vest it in the establish ment of Factories Besides, if among us there are those who would have the mind to petition, I have no doubt (if Columbia, a place ot immense water power, does not get the start of us,) that the Legislature, which heretofore has expended thousands of dollars for the up-country, and barely a jot on us would grant their aid to, or take a large part of the stock of, any manufac turing company of enterprising individuals in this city. Nor can any one doubt that, if encouragement is held out to foreign manufacturers, the advantages of profit are so obvious, that they vvoulo bring their capital here. Whether they be encourag ed or not, they will ultimately be among us; that is, so soon as the competition of Goods in the market becomes domestic , an event which the Tariffs of 1824 and *2B are producing; and which is about to be has tened by the prodigious European capital, everyday migrating to the Northern States. 2d. The Power. —Compared with the Northern cities, our materials for building, the mechanics’ wages, the machinery and wood, the food of steam power ; that power which is to be preferred to tide water, we have as cheap. As to manual labour, I would rather it be of the white population ; not that it is so cheap, but, because white labour would irculate more variously the price of its wages. Even white labour here can be had •is ctyeap as at the North. The lowest wa ges in the North is the Agriculturist s, be ing 47 cents per day. In New York, Cat * pouters and Bricklayers get $1 75, and Ship-joiners $2 75 per day Men in the Factories at Patterson, get from $1 to $1 25 per day. The lowest price of man la bour in the Factories all over the North is 75 cents per day each, which is $234 75 cents per year How many able bodied white men are there among us, out of employment, who would thankfully labour f>r 75 cents a day, at any kind of work 1 How many poor people would hire out their children, ifsl per week and their boarding per head, could be got as in Lowel ? How many poor fe males in this place, I would like to know by their industry, as females do in the North, pay for their board and have $1 50 over at the end of the week I Did we use white labour, it would entice many enterprising people from the old countries, fetching across the waters the skill and saving industry peculiar to their respective mother institutions, to be subsii ted in the place of black population at all times suspicious. For instance, what a hap py accession to the wealth of the city,would have been the Swiss, who lately left it for want of employment, and were the best part of them weavers and spinners. But, after all, every thing considered, black labour in time will be to us, what iron and coal arc to Great Britain—a riches which will overstep all the bounds of nor thern wealth. ‘ The opinion, unfortunately for tbe South, prevails, that slaves have not the capaciiy to work in factories Any one who has seen a factory in operation, must confess, that less skill is necessary in it, than in any other occupation. It requires no more effort of mind and body to thread a needle or to learn the use of a pair of scis sors, lhan to attend to two power looms in operation, or the spinning frame or the mule. Indeed the aptitude at c tching at tbe grosser arts, if I may use the expres sion, seems peculiar to our blacks, as is generally so with the unlearned every where, who never busy themselves about •he higher concerns of intellect, and are sensibly wrought on by any thing novel Does it not require more body and mind to stoop down and pull up the weakly from the vigorous cotton plants, which little ne groes are wont to do, on the plantations, than to stand between two power looms in operation, occasionally “mending a thread and “putting anew spool in the shuttle.” To show the simplicity of labour in a sac tory, I beg leave to quotp the two follow ing passages from an article iu the > din-, burge Review, for June 1827 t “A boy or girl, ol from 12 to 14 years ot age, can, with ease, attend to two power looms; and can,by their means, produce three times as much well woven cloth as could be produc ed bv the best hand weaver.” Again — “ The spinning jenny of Hargraves has been brought to such perfection as to ena ble a little girl to work no fewer than from eighty to one hundred and twenty spin dles. * I myself have seen at Baltimore, a little girl attend to her own and the other two looms of her sister, who was for a short time absent from the factory. If further proof is wanting, 1 refer the reader to the Report of the Select Committee of North Caiolina, on the manufacture of cotton, &i:. Among other things, the committee report that Mr. Donaldson, the owner of two factories, one at Fayetteville and the other at the falls of Tar River, “ says that lie has been for some time in the habit of working blacks in his -actories, and that he not only finds them equal to whites in apt ness to learn, and skill lo execute; but all things considered, he actually prefers them ” Mr. D. further states, “ that lie has had several superintendants from the North, and all of them, with the exception of one, decidedly prefer black help, as they term it, to white : with the blacks there is no turning out for wages, and time lost in vis iting musters and other public • xhibitions.” Tiie advas tages of bla< k labour over white labour are, as the North Carolina Committee says—“ that black labour can he made permanent by purchase”—that it is servile and like a machine can be used— that it can be made to work early and late without complaint—that “ lives to work ” whereas the while labourer “ works to live ,’ and maintain his family —an 1 lastly that ii is cheaper than the white labour of the north The fact of the price of a slave’s sub sistence bei g less than that of a white man at the north is conclusive, that the price of the slave’s labour must also be less. How ever, as it is my wish to prove every thing by facts, I submit the following relative es timate of black labour here and white la bour at the north. The wages of an able bodied manufacturer in the north, averages at the lowest 75 cents per day ; excluding the Sundays, his wages per year ate $234 75 cents Prime slaves can be hired in this state at SSO per anuum SSO Winter clothes, 5 yards at 50 cents per yard - - 2 50 Summer do. 7 yards at 14 cents per yard, (which all planters do not give) .... 93 1 pair of shoes ... 87 1-2 1 peck of corn per week, averaging per year 75 cents per hushel, per year - - - 9 75 1 gill of salt per week at 43 3-4 per bushel per year - - 621-2 1 blanket every 3 years at $2 50 per blanket per year • - 83 3-4 $65 56 1-3 Deducting $65 55 1-3 from $233 75 cts. the difference in favour of black labour is $169 18 2 3; and it is 84 43 2-3 less than the average annual wages of the 381 men, the 386 women and 686 girls and boys at Patterson ; that is if 150 per head be the correct calculation, as published in thePat tersou Intelligencer. A girl at 14years old gets at Lowelsl per week and her board, the lowest wages; calculating the price of her board at the lowest sum, say 75 cents per week, and adding to annual wages, it amounts to s9l ; which is $25 43 2-3 more than the expenses of b. s mg and subsisting an able bodied slave here Slaves of the age of 14 and 15 years being, what planters call half hands, are hired and subsisted at half the price of a prime hand. Taking then hall the items above stated, excepting the price of the winter a id sum mer clothing, the shoes and the blankets which I will make the same, the price of the labour of half a hand per year is $35 35 1-2. Deducting this $35 35 1-2 cents from the s9l, the difference then, in the price of the labour of a black girl or boy, and that of a boy or girl of the same age at the north is $55 64 1-2. If the proprietor worked his own slave, in his factory, the price of his labour would be considerably less. Seven per cent, interest on a prime hand, valued at S3OO - s2l His subsistence (as above sta ted) - - 15 56 1-4 His state tax - 75 bill per annum 2 Total, $39 Si 1-4 Thirty nine dollars thirty one and a quar ter cents deducted from $65 56 1-2 cents the price of hired labour, leaves in favor oi the proprietor, if he works his own slave, $26 24 and a fraction. _ 3d. Profit,- No capital in this State produces as much interest as the stock of the factories to the north. The interest on Bank Stock has for many years back reach ed but 5 3-4 per cent. And 1 am advised to say, by a very intelligent planter, with the exception of the Islanders, and a few river Rice planters, that the interest on tht whole agricultural capital of this State con sidering the loss of lives on the plantations, ill-management, physician’s bills, and the want of seasons, does not average 5 pe. cent. Now, it ought to be well known, that the interest on manufacturing capital at the North, is usually from 15 to 20 per cent, and in some instances 40 per cent.— Indeed, after the Tariff of 1824, the stock ol the factories sold, commonly, at 40 pei cent, above par. To how much more pro fit then could lactories be established in this place. The advantages we could have over tbe Northern factories are, Ist— Our black labour is not only competent 0 ufacture as well, but it is coiisid cheaper than the white labour North : 2d. The material of cotton is r per here, by less the prices of its ’ tation to the North, and its re-traus tion when wrought and consumed j,| ?’ State. I have calculated £5 35 * to be the price of the transportation 1 } 1 bag of cotton from Barnwell District the Edisto river, up to the selling o f\’ New York; which is 1 cent 7 pound. The prices of the carriage to factory, after selling the bag of cott,>v New York, of the labour of working it ; 1 cloth, of the carriage of the cloth ba c / New York, of its storage of comrai&J 1 for selling it, of its insurance, of its age, of its freight to Charleston of t(1 ‘ missions for selling it in this place other additional items of value which j unable to calculaie; hut which n lUs , f greater than the price of transportation , the selling in New York, inasmuch :is bale of cotton, by being manufactured ‘ increased in bulk, and most generally ■ about three-fold value. 3d. The C ,V could be delivered at die factoiy j u ‘J' 5 seed, which would not only save the 0 * waste and bagging, estimated at IQ cent, and the landing and weighing at .? wharf, the storage and commission of Factor, the last items amounting to (,3 per bale, at the present prices ; but t, v p ing gmned at the factory, the cotton thered is belter for spinning fine thread ; the are of greater volume when fresh ; like green twigs of the basket maker, they C u be twisted into any consistency. For ff reason ‘he flossy compact smoothness East India cotton thread is as yet unrival ed 4th We could save the expenses and conveying steam through funnels to ail p ;!rs of the factory, which has to be clone inEj gland and at the Nonh, to produce ttu warm moist temperature, which is thequ 5 lity of our climate. The fibres of cottm in a cold climate are brittle and snap. There are many other advantages we Jj aV) over the Northern manufacturers, for tb further information of which, I refer ti reader to the very valuable Repoit of ifo Select Committee of North Carolina ci cotton and wool manufacturers, &c. * The average price of Doctor’s bill on plant* tion is $1 per head per year. The Disappointed Bride —At an an a*e vht; the heart is open to every impression:and fcriy with the same readiness engagements and coa nections, which in a man of riper years, would bt the fruit of esteem and observation St. travelling from his native province, to explan the wonders of a metropolis which he had as ye! beheld with eyes only of hope. In the coaci which was to convey him to Paris, he found 1 young man of prepossessing appeurance;a conve;. sation soon began that terminated in protestatka cf friendship, warmly reiterated on both sides:- Mutual confidence soon flowed from their lip* and all the secrets of their hearts were reveal^ it was then that St. A learned that his net friend was going to Paris, to marry a young laci whom he had never seen, whom his father an family had chosen for his bride,with the consent 0 her relations. The journey finished without any accident and they arrived in the morning at Paxil where they togk lodgings in a public hotel.- Searcely had they taken possession of their apart inents, when tire young man was seized with) bilious cholic, which, in less than two hours, and& prived him of his existence. Affected with tin melancholy fate of his youthful acquaintance. St A-, whose attentions had been unable to raise him, thought it his duty to inform the fathers his future bride of the overthrow of his expects tions, and taking w ith him the letters and the port folio ol his friend, repaired to the house of tk gentleman. Ihe servant w r ho opened the door, consciou that his master expected his son-in-law, annouuc ed Bt.

St A , naturally gay and volatile, could nd resist the temptation of deceiving the family a while longer, and played his part extremely well lie gave the letters, and being perfectly acquaint ed with the secrets and affairs of his friend, re turned the most satisfactory answers- to their questions. He succeeded, especially in. capth' 4 *’ ing the attention oi the young lady, who witnsidfr long glances admired the ieatures aild the shape with which nature had blessed her lover - Dinner was announced, and St A was plac ed by the side of the timid bride; and the whch family yielded up their hearts to joy and satidafi’ tion. Ihe young lady spoke little, answered with difficulty, and often blushed, while St. A -was polite and ardent in his attention to her; arl though the expressions oi hrs face were naturally serious, his conversation was pleasing and cheer ful. 6 After dinner, the father entered into all the tails necessary to settle the marriage, when, £Uu’ deniy, set.
