pent up tide of travel from the North had us,

was something almost miraculous In the South
that they had happy faculty Of missing connec

tory Of railroad travelling. One train vould ar

Wilmington, the snow began to disappear en-

The only objects OF interest were the neat viii

England villages: the railroad stations, with the
bales of cotton and barrels of turpentne, waiting
for the iron horse to whisk them to Wilmington,
Petersburg or Norfolk; snd about sixty miles in
length of those turpentine forests, between Will

for four or five feet above the ground, might be
mistaken in the dim twilight for graves,oues innu'

were mcandsring through immense South Carolina
swamps: then entered hilly and broken country,
