Gen. Grant has sufficiently re
covered from his severe ease ot

men is that the average charge in
Georgia for carrying 100 pounds
of grain for 100 miles is 7 cents,
j while in eleven other stales the
charge is from 11J cents to 37
j cents |>er hundred.
I In Georgia the railroads get on
dour in barrels for 100 miles 15
cents per barrel, while in the oth
cr eleven states the charge varies
from 2(51 to 74 cents. Ohio and
| Illinois are two states famous for
, tile amount of grain produced, and
‘ carried to market. Of course to
encourage transiiortation, the rail
roads would make as favorable
rates as practicable, ami yet tin-
roads t here get just about twice as
much for carrying grain—not
withstanding the immense amount
transported—as the railroads of
Georgia do.

I think it was in 1822 steam
boats were first introduced on the
waters of the Southern States.—
They may- have been liefore that
on the Mississippi river, but I do
not know. History tells its that
Rumseys “succeeded in North Riv
er. New York, Oct. 1807,” and that
steam was applied to purposes of
inland navigation in America in
1810, and also one Graham sue
(•ceded in running sLcamlioats in
the Northern rivers in 1808. This
may all lie true, but it was not
until about 1822 they ★ere intro
dueed in the South. Before steam
boats, the produce in the vicinity
of navigable rivers were trans-
ported on large flat boats profil
ed by manual labor. 1 have seen
flats carrying 1.000 bales of cotton
floating down stream, with twenty
negro men on hoard to take it back
with merchandise for tiic up coun

Messrs. Editors, bow soon one

another, in the world? Cotton la

going to the bottom of, and cross

newer world than the “Then,*’ to
one who has lived in the “Then?”
It is indeed a new world, and judg
ing of the future by the past, we
may reasonably conclude the next
generation “s'hnll see greater
things than tliese." Another fact
seems strange. Nearly every one
of these vast discoveries origins
ted in our own land. History says
