PREsENTATIoN.-Capt. CHARLES {. ST.
YER, Hath n. Y. Volunteers, and for some
time past Acting Assistant Adjutant Gen
eral of the Hilton Head District, was the
happy recipient Of an elegant gold watch
on Monday last. The donors were his
clerks, and the gift was testimonial of
their appreciation of the urbanity and
courtesy manifested by this worthy officer
in his business relations, and of the est
nation in which they regard him, not
only as friend but as gentleman. We
congratulate the Captain upon his excel
lent relations, aad hope his souvenir MAJ
always keep the best of time.

HILTON HEAD.-Probably an order will
soon be issued BY the authorities at Wash
ington from which we can learn what is
to be done will this place. 1t is becom
ing too important Il point To b neglected
and no doubt some Of the most sub
stantial Notifications on the Atlantic
coast will be built around the waters OF
Port Royal Entrance. We may expect in
few years to see an immense fort right
here on the very spot now occupied by
rows of shingle palaces; another at
Bay Point and still another, built on a
similar foundation to Sumter" on the
shoal which is buoyed ont, half way be-
tween here and Lands End.

fields of the Southern interior. And all
other places around, Charleston and Sa-
vannah alike, will become subsidiary to
the lucky spot.
Suppose company were to build a rail
road from Hilton Head directly west to
Hardeeville, crossing Skull Creek By a
bridge having draw admitting the pas
sage of vessels engaged in coast trade,
can the other conditions relative to build
ing ground and health be fulfilled? We
confidently assert they can, and a very
little examination cf the site and such
statistics as we have of the place will
prove it. All We ask is, that when the
future city is really laid out, the compre-
hensive and far-seeing policy of William
Penn in relation to Philadelphia will be
observed, in order that proper sanitary
condition can always be maintained
wide streets, reservations for public
buildings and parks, lots not too meagre
in size, and alleys and sidewalks not too
narrow. These characteristics, in connec-
ton with al acurate and carefully exam
ined town plat having a water front OF
at least four miles and depth certainly
half that distance-Should be adopted.
Then, with good municipal government,
Hilton Head, under civil authority and
having its title to property emanating
from Government, cannot fail to be the
Chicago of the South, in the rapidity OF
its career towards the family of cities.
But Northern enterprise and money
will be needed to do this, it will be said.
Of course, no one expects the inhabitants
of the South to engage in projec. of this
kind primarily, else Norfolk or Charleston
or Savannah would have been different
from what they are now, or Port Royal not
remained for two or three centuries with
out development Northern men are here
now, and more will come; and, under
the new order of things, the whole cour-
try round about will soon be full of them.
Plantations will he cut up and instead
thereof we will have farms. Slaves will
be known no more, but instead, these
primer men and their children, now learn
ing their lessons, will be on hand as COM
paritively intelligent laborerS, mechanics,
merchants, citizens. And perhaps the
poor white people of tie South may see
that they have lesson to learn also, in
adapting themselvesto the improved state
of the times, and wonder why they have
so long remained in Ignorance of what
Was for their best interests. As to the
lordlings, let them go-an age of utility,
not of idleness, is dawning.

Lessons and their Teachings.

1t Is not an uncommon tnlnS 10 SEE
freedmen, when unemployed, poring over
books in out-of-the-way places; or. per,
haps, rather ostentatiously displaying
them from side-pockets, when engaged
at work. having them ready for instant
use during moments of leisure. This
means something. Small as the begin
ming may be, that man, that woman, or
even that child, anxiously studying out
and combining the elements of language,
is influenced by a sentiment which is to
b, productive of certain results. In a
few years The New SOUTH may be
read daily by these apt scholars. They
will have minds of their own-will
do head-work on their individual respon-
sibility. With the acquisition of know
ledge will come all those wants which a
rapidly improving race will develope.
The lesson is taught as that we must pre-
pare for an entirely new order of things
and lay our plans accordingly.
Out on the bosom of our harbor can be
seen at almost any moment, great ships
of war lying easily at anchor, and noble
steamers in abundance, some going, some
Coming and some moored at the wharf,
giving evidence that We are contiguous to
q remarkably fine port. We hear none
aver there is difficulty in approaching our
shore-in fact, we know there is none.
We know, indeed, that the largest craft
floating at the piers of New York or
Brooklyn can float equally well in the
noble harbor OF Port Royal if the COM
mercial inducements are such as to make
this the preferred point of destination.
The thought has struck US that there has
been, and is now, an alphabet for us ont
on the bay, to which we should give earn
est attention. The hand of war has
opened elementary books for our study,
as we'll as for the recently emancipated
race about us-and this is one of them.
For some good reason it has been re-
served for this generation to unfold the
advantages which must result from the
occupation of Port Royal. Beside this
deep and broad channel, bending in
among the fertile islands of the coast,
there must inevitably be established TO-
Gus of trade, which, in all human proba-
bility will be metropolitan for at least
half dozen of the Southern States and
