Charleston Enterprisc:

We extract the following from an
article on the enterprise and prospects
of Charleston in the Washington Re-
public of July 2lst:
If Georgia be the Empire State of
the South, Charleston is the Boston of
that section: She has recently compile
ted her arrangements for railroad to
Cincinnati upon line of survey only
63l miles in length. She will also
connect with Louisville by d line of
800 miles. The shortest Baltimore
line with Cincinnati is, VIC believe, $50
miles. Charleston will thus attract a
large proportion of the provisions and
manufactures Of the Ohio valley, and
in the next war we shall have regi.
mcnts of lllinoisj Ohio, md Indiana
volunteers coming down to defend the
outlet Of their trade at Charleston; as
their fathers did New Orleans; and
when nbolitionists come to set free the
negroes who wear the goods, eat the
bacon, and work the mules of the
North west, tho volunteers will rise up
and aid in their expulsion, upon the
plainest and most inevitable reason
because it will be- their interest to do
so.
we note, moreover. that 4 plaii' is
on foot to make rail road coastwise
from Charleston to Savannah, and the
latter city will place herself directly in
the line Of communication with the
Gulf and the Pacific by rail road to
Pensacola. Charleston has thus secur-
cd access to the Gulf-the Central Mis-
slssiPpi at Memphis and the great
meat-house and mcattub of the Union
tho Ohio valley. We have obscrv-
ed, moreover, that contract has been
made for the manufacture in Charles
ton of all the rolling stock of the New
Orleans and Opelousas rail road
There are other evidences of industrial
prosperity which account in our
mind for the profound quiet of South
Carolina, and convince us that she is
organizing q practical power that will
rely upon itself for protection, and that
she will no longer be rs ttiin-skinncd

THsriIsiErE Scene.

4 despatch from Niagara Falls, da-
ted the 10th, says: two men were
carried over the falls this morning, and
n third is now clinging to rock on the
brink of the precipicc, with the dread
FIJI chasm, and death yawnng beneath
him. The New York Herald says i'll
relation to the man on the rock: sThc
anxiety Of the people Oh shore to res
cue the unfortunate man from his
perilous situation was most intense
throughout the day. But if the feel
ings of the spectators were aroused to
such pitch, what must have been the
thoughts of him who was almost GER
tain of eventually becoming a prey to
the roaring torrent? Every scheme
that human Ingenuity could devise was
resor'ed to; lifeboats were brought
from i'!.', 9stl;'q and and ,royIslons we're
fiohted to him on RATS.
Late in the afternoon he succeeded
in placing himself on one of these
RATS, and was on the point Of stepping
from it into a llcboat, when, to the
dismay and horror of the spectators
on shore, the boat came in collision
with The raft with so much violence as
to pitch poor Able into the water.-
Still undauntcd, be struck out boldly
for small island in the vicinity; but
the current ofcrpowcrcd his already
exhausted physical energies, and, after
thus desperately struggling for life,
and tenaciously clinging for twenty
hours to slippery rock, which itself
could scarcely Withstand the impctu-
ons force Of the stream, the victim
was swept into eternity. One wild,
piercing shrek, and all was over.

Net income

The cost of the train with eighty

The Times adds:
"a large engine will draw on any
road, not exceeding a forty feet grade,
one hundred tons in addition to the
cars; and as fourteen passengers with
their baggage are usually estimated to
sbe a ton, full train ofcars, with two
hundred and forty passengers, amounts
to only seventeen tons. The difference
in fuel required to draw one or three

The following recipe for making To
mato Figs has been received by the
Directors of the South Carolina lnsti-
tutc from Mrs. Johnston, to whom n
Premium was awarded Mt the last Fair
for Tomato Figs. The recipe having
been received too late for insertion in
the report OF the Board, they now
make it public, for the benefit Of their
icllow-ciizcns:
ToMATo FIGs.-Put three pounds of
clarified brown sugar to every five
pounds of tomatoes. They must be
first scadcd to remove the skin, then
placed in stone jar, tomatoes and su-
gar alternately, to extract the Juice;
in twenty four hours boil them in their
own juice until the sugar penctratcs
and they look clear, but not so much
rs to smash them. Very little boiling
is necessary. Return them to the jar
to remain two days, when you must
pour off the syrup; boil it and throw
over the tomatoes. In two days more
more boil the syrup again and throw
over item. Let them remain two
days, and then shake them from the
syrup and dry on dishes, turning them
every d. for week Of good drying
wcathc. M the sun. Should the wealth
cr be damp after the boiling is finished,
they can ycmain in tile syrup until good
weather. When perfectly dry, pack
down in small wooden boxes, treating
each layer to sifted loaf sugar.
