In Tie Press of October 2lst fhe following
description Of tie chief town situated upon
the Port Royal river, which the Federal
forces will take possession Of as soon ss the
outer forts are stermed, is thus described
"I'be necessity for the seizure Of this port
by the Federal forces has been often discussed
in certain quarters, and has been said TO be
seizure which would be highly advantageous
to the Government. 1t ia situated in. an arm
of the sea called Port Royal river, about
fifteen miles from the Atlantic. The hsrbor
is one Of the safest on the whole Southern
coast and has sixteen feet water at low tide,
and over nineteen at full upon the bar, at its
entrance. Situated Immediately south Of the
line OF railroad, at distance Of twenty miles,
running between Charleston and Savannah,
it would afford 90 easy base for land opera
tiops against either. Either could be much
more easily tsken by land operations thah
from the sea. Its importance is then by no
means to be under valued in any future series
of assaults uron these hot.beds of treason
Its distance from Charleston is less than fifty
miles, and twenty five from Savannah.
"rhe great desideratum gained by sn attack
upon it is that it can be taken with little or
no loss of life. and can be so fortified as TO be
held andWard against most formidable
force. The British took il and held it for a
long time during the Revolutionary war,
deeming it point of the greatest Importance.
Its collector, under Mr.. Bucbanan's Admin
istratou refused to give his adhesion TO the
Secession dynasty in South Carolina, and was
arrested for high treason. Ho subsequently,
succumbed to force. 1t must not be con
founded with the North Carolina Beaufort,
more than hundred miles northeast OF it."
There is another entrance by which Beau,
fort can be reached, called ST. Helena Sound
1t communicates With Beaufort by O narrow
inlet, which schooDers of but very shallow
draught raD enter. Indeed the whole sur.
roundiugs of Beaufort consist of series o
those sea islands. which produce such mogni
| fcent cotton, the best and finest staple known
| to commerce. Among these are St. Helena
| Hunting, aud Port Royal islands.
| Beaufort can be easily fortified so as to be
he.d both landward and seaward. Access is
given. by its occupation, to the richest cotton
region of the South. Not only the cotton
planters of South Caroline, but the riches
cotton districts of Georgia can be reached
But above alt. easy approach is afforded tc
that part OF Georgia which is said to be still
secretly bnt strongly attached to the ol,
Government Of their fathers.

TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDEST-ONE SOUSa
lady kILLFn AND ANOTHER MuRTALLY WouN.
nED " esterday morning. as the train which
left Philadelphia on the West Chester Railroad,
about l09 o'clock, was nearing West Chester,
shocking and singular accident occurred, which
has cast very general gloom over that borough
II seems that Misses Deborah and Hannah
Hughes, residents of Charleston township, Ches
Ter county, were riding in carriage, accompa
med by lad named William Williams, who was
formerly resident Of this city, and has father
residing here. The carriage was driven across
,he railroad, near Bolmar's school house. about
half mile from West Chester, and was about
two hundred yards from the crossing, when the
horse observed the approaching train, became
terrified, and, turning suddenly around, rushed
back towards the track, precipitating The carriage,
with its contents of human beings, upon the
"cow-catcher" Of the locomotive, which arrived
at The point at that very instant
BY another singular accident, Miss Hannah
Hughes was cast under the train, clear of the
wheels, and not on the "cow catcher" and as a
consequence the ertre train passed over her,
crushing her up into a heap, and breaking
almost every bone in her body, which was found

came tangled IN the bows, trimmings, and leather
of the vehicle, after being carried along for some
twenty yards, and were then cast oil some six
feet to the right of the track, where they were pick.
ed up shortly after. The remains of Miss Ian,
Eah Hughes and the manned body of Williams
were conveyed to the Station House near by,
The physicians in attendance decided that one Of
the legs Of the boy Williams would have TO he
amputated, and although he is perfectly sensible
and almost free of fever there is but little hope ol

position of Ex-Governor Wise.

Ex-Governor Wise, of Virginia, having
been written to by a gentleman of Co
lumbus, Ga, to define what he means
by lighting in the Union" replies as
follows:
1st. If Sovereign State is judge of the
infraction as well as the mode and man.
ncr of redress, she may remain in the
Union to resent or resist wrongs as well
as do so out of the Union.
I'd. If other States have infracted the
Union, not she, the State wronged, is
bound to defend the Constitution and
Union against those who have infracted
the one and threatened the other. LoSl-
cally, the Union belongs to those who
have kept, not those who have broken Its
convcnants.
Sd. The Union is not an abstraction; it
is real, substantial thing, embracing
many essential and vital political rights
and properties. 1t has nationality, lands,
treasure, organization of army and navy,
ships docll-yards, arsenals, etc.: etc., etc.
Shall we rcnouncc these rights and pos
sessions because wrong-doers attempt to
deprive us of other rights? Is it not cow
ardly to renounce one right to save anoth-
er? Are these rights not as precious as
the mere right Of property in negroes !?
But,
4th. If You sccede, you not only re-
nounce the Union and its professions, but
you fail to unite your own people, because
you do rcncmce these rights. Wake a
man up to destroy the Union and consti-
tuition, and he will stare at you and turn
away. But tell him that the constitution
is infractcd and the Union threatened by
black republicans, and call him to aid you
in defending both against those who
would destroy both, and he will act heart
lily with you.
5th. Then how is this to be done?-
The Sd clause of the 10th section OF the
lst article of the Constitution Of the Uni
ted States permits State to keep troops
and ships Of war in time Of peace: and to
engage in war, when actually invaded, or
when in such imminent danger as Will not
admit of delay. Now, arc we not actually
invaded? Is our danger not immincnt?
Does it admit of delay? May not SOW
crcgn State SO decide?
9th. And what is the difference? VIII
it not be revolution and war in either
event?
say, then, stick to all your rights. re-
nounce none. fight for all and save all .
Yours, truly, &c, HENRY A. WISE.
