written by President Grant. No one
who reads it can have the slightest
doubt .lint, the President is its author.
It begin® bv asserting that under Prov

clares his belief in a universal Ilepub-
lie, and his convictions that we are to
have a universal language. Speaks of
the rights of the emancipated negro,
whom lie says must he admitted to

“conduct will regulate the fares and

FBOFILF OF THE TORT ROYAL If.R.
BY I AFTIX W. AY. TIIOUAS.
We were shown yesterday evening a
splendidly executed profile of the Port
Royal Railroad, from this city to Steel
Creek, tS. C. The drawing is the work
of C’apt. W. W. Thomas, Civil Engi
neer in charge of the Augusta Division
of the Port Rfiynl Railroad, and is the
most perfect affair of its kind that ha®
ever fallen under our observation. It
presents not only the line of the road
and distances, hut also shows the
natural surface of the ground over
which the road passes, the excavations
and embankments necessitated by this
conformation, the different sections of.
the road and the cost of the construc
tion of each section, and at each change
of the grade, miniature flags are mark
ed showing the point of beginning of
each change, with figures denoting the
number of feet per mile of the rise or
fall of the grade.
The bridge across the Savannah
River, is very neatly sketched on the
profile, nnd the accompanying figures
show that its total length is 84.> feet;
the cost of its construction being, for
masonry, 8.'>0,031 07, nnd the super
structure, 828,027 27. The structure
is a How Truss Bridge, having ft draw
bridge of. 200 feet, nnd is placed 35
feet above low water mark. The trestle
work of the road as shown by C’apt.
Thomas’ profile-drawing, consisfs on
the Georgia side of 2,000 fe^t, and on
the South Carolina ride of 1,000 feet,
making in nil with the bridge, three-
fourths of a inilo super-structure of the
finest order.
Captain Thomas, the engineer in
charge of this division of the read, and
the draughtsman of this most credita
ble drawing, isa graduate in the Degree
of Civil Engineer from the University
of Georgia, and has won for himself
an enviable reputation in his profession,
ciiuee March of 1872 he lias been in
charge of the Augusta division of the
road, hut has most particularly devoted
his attention to the construction of the
bridge and trestle work. We learn
that Cuptain Thomas lias accepted the
office of local agent of the road at this
point, and our congratulations are ex
tended to the Management of the com
pany for the fortunate selection they
have made.—Constitutiomlst, Sth inst.
