Il thC ANC" pIk w Oflu
Port Royal is fifteen miles northeast from the
mouth OF the Savannah river, and is in all
respects the most eligible point along the south.
ern coast for efeeting a hostile landing. The
entrance to the harbor is one of the best below
Norfolk; and the harbUr itself is large enough
to admit of the anchorage and movements of
the whole feet The city ef Beaufort is stu-
ated on the east side Of the harbor, on Port
Royal Island, with population of about one
Beaufort county, which constitutes the southern
extremity of South Carolina. The population
of the district in 1850 was 38 SO5, Of which only
6, 500 were free.
The chief staples Of the district are cotton,
rice, Indian corn, and sweet potatoes. Beaufort
is one of the most pOpulOus districts in South
Carolina. The surrounding country is a level
plain, but little elevated above the sea and
the soil is alluvial and sandy, we'll ada pied
apparently, for quartering troops, and for the
movements Of an attacking army. Port Royal
communicates almost directly, by railroad
with both Charleston and Savannah. force
moving up the river from Beaufort city would
strike the Charleston and Savannah Railroad
at point about fifty miles from Charleston on
the one hand and fifty miles from Savannah on
the other. The acquisition Of that road will
be one of the first movements of the expedi-
tlonary army, giving, as it would, the command
OF both cities, and easy access to them, besides
cutting off the facilities of transit and transport
from the rebels
The possession of this point will give Gen
Sherman access to the most important part OF
the southern coast, and enable him to attack in
the rear the Notifications of Charleston and
Savannah. The possession of Beaufort, in fact
must result in the speedy possession of the
whole OF South Carolina and Georgia. This
point Of the coast is situated directly opposite
the most southern extremity Of Kentucky. A
military line drawn from Port Royal to the
Cumberland mountains would cut rebellion
completely in tvs and thereby snnihilate the
rebellion. The intention Of the War Depart
ment probably is rather to make this base of
operations for securing the whole Southern
coast.
So long as our troops may find it necessary
to remainIin the district Of Beaufort they arc
sure Of fine quarters. 1t is the most fertile
part Of the State, and abounds in the neces-
saries Of subsistence. The probability is that
they will capture no uncomfortable amount oil
valuable commodities. They will probably
ind few thousand bales of the finest Sea
Island Cotton, which, at the present price OF
that staple, would prove a most valuable prize.
The annual value of the crops raised in this
district is 81, 900 900, q very large proportion
OF which must now be accumulated there Ii
the property owners should prove persistent in
their disloyalty, the gains of the government by
conhscation must be considerable.
The possession of this hsrbOr will enable the
North to open q new Cotton port, where the
experiment may be tried as to how far the
Cotton planters would avail themselves of an
opportunity Of selling their crops.
