visit to Cherokee and Columbia HIN.
Having some business to transact, and being
desirous to see the country, we paid flying visit
of our last paper, and had the pleasure of form
ing number of agreeable acquaintances. The
roads leading thither are in fine condition, ex-
tending over easily y-ascended hills, across mining
ravines, along mountain ridges and through
shady pine forests. There was much Of the beau
tiful and romantic to be met with and admired,
and we were pleasurably excited with natures
display of grandeur from the beginning to the
end of the journey.
The hospitalities of Mr.. and Mrs. A. s. Nugent,
consisting of an excellent dinner, with bowl of
glorious buttermilk to wash it down, are hereby
gratefully acknowledged. At Michael Delaney
hotel, the "Columbia House," mile or two fur
ther on, the same generous reception was expe-
rienced. With true Irish courtesy, both the land
lord and landlady ofRciated, and in brimming
glass of malt liquor ION top of the buttermilk)
freely and smilingly bestowed, we drank again
to refresh and strengthen the inner man
against the intense heat of an otherwise lovely
day. This region is rich in mineral wealth as it
is in natural inducements for increased popula-
ton. Its auriferous treasures are scarcely COM
menced to be developed.
At Columbia Hill we were politely entertained
by Messrs. Ayres, Matthews, Rathbun, Taylor
and others. Their little town is prospering, and
some day not far distant, is bound to show large
increase of wealth and population. 1t has been
literally hewed out of the forest; but everywhere
exhibits evidence of improvement and expansion.
Cherokee is also thriving mining town. Mr..
George w. Turney keeps a fine hotel; Mr.. James
Anderson supplies the market with fresh and
savory meats; Hr. Frankenheimer has large
and well-assorted stock of goods, which he sells
at reasonable prices; Judge Bronx keeps the po-
litical waters agitated, and Miss Kline is about
to impart new feature to the activity of the
place by getting off Rattle, the better to enable
her to dispose of certain property, valued at three
or four thousand dollars, with the philanthropic
design of sending back to the family burying-
ground in one of the Atlantic States, the remains
of deceased parent.
Our haste enabled us only to get glance at
these respective places, and to mingle but slight
ly with their inhabitants. Before long we expect
to pay them another visit, and extend the circle
of our acquaintance.
