ARaIIrOsdsO Jasper spring,

Editor WorTling Ne1os: Among the numer-
GUS delightful and pleasant resorts and
points Of attraction around Savannah there
is one place that seems to have entirely
escaped the well deserved notice of our men
of enterprise and progress. This is Jasper
Spring.
Every Savaunahian has heard OF Jasper
Spring, and many have visited it, not only
on account of its natural spring, gifted with
medicinal virtues, but also for its historical
celebrity, as the spot where Sergeant Jasper
established his fame by bis heroic exploits.
Very many would visit this spot II not de-
tered by the difficulties in getting there.
Whenever conversation turns upon this
subject, the first question used to be, How
can we get there? The answer is, by sandy
road, unfit to be travelled on foot, especially
for ladies and children.
Now, what may be the reason why rail-
road has not been constructed to facilitate
travel toward this desirable outlet, that
leads also to the race course and fair
grounds!
The cost Of such an undertaking could
not attain such a magnitude as to deter cur
men OF enterprise, who constructed the
railroads to Thunderbolt, Battery Park and
the Isle Of Hope, from a similar under
taking, and seems to be well justified, il we
take notice the extensive travelling on the
Augusta aud Louisville Road to and from
our city. II freight cars were attached the
great number OF truck farmers in those
parts would hail with Joy the opportunity
OF sending expeditiously and regularly
their immense amount OF produce to the
shipping and railroads, while at present they
are reduced TO the costly procedure of en-
ploying mules, wagons and drivers for that
purpose.
Some enterprisine and responsible person
might perhaps obtain few acres by rent or
lease comprising the famous spring and its
vicinity for the establishment of a place of
public resort aud amusement for those who
are seeking to breathe a salubrious at
mosphere, combined with a view of the
beauties Of nature and the use Of medicinal
water. PROGRESS.

on the chain-gang, employed at work on the
Cuyler swamp canal, succeeded In making
their escape. It is not known when or in
what manner these convicts escap-

able reticence I'm regard to the matter,
No mention OF the escape was made to
the representative Of the MORNING News and
some other gentlemen who visited the
camp on Thursday afternoon, aud we under
stand that constable who made application
for information on the subject received no
clue upon which to work. Our informant
states that one OF the parties who escaped
Is the negro Gilbert, who plead guilty to the
charge OF larceny from the house, having been
concerned in the robbery Of Mrs. Msisrou's
house, on Bryan street. Gilbert, It is
stated, first managed to rid himself of the
shackles and then set free two Of his com

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
an Exciting Runaway on the Bay
Two Persons IBJured. and stOop
and a Buggy Wrecked.

Oue of the most exciting and serious
runaway accidents which has occurred
here in a long time was witnessed on
the Bay yesterday afternoon. Mr.. N.
n. Meyer, Receiver OF Tax Returns, &C
compsnied by his wife had been out driy-
ing, and was returning home about twenty
minutes after FIVE O'Clock. his horse Is
quite a spirited animal. but has never, as
we understand, evineed any disposition to
run away. Mr.. Meyer drove into Bay
street from East Broad at a good trot,
aud had proceeded but q short distance,
when from some cause the horse took
fright and sprang into gallop. Mr.. Meyer
lost control OF him, ana gear the corner OF
Price street the animal alipDed and fell on
the stones, overturniRg Ne buggy, the top
covering the occupants - they were pitched
in the street. In an instant almost the
horse regsined his feet and started again,
dragging Mr.. Meyer, who had become en-
tangled IN the reins, several yards. Mrs.
Meyer was extricated by the swerving
OF the buggy top as the horse
regained his feet. Some people
who were in the vicinity Immediately
rushed to the scene and Mrs. Meyer
was removed to the residence of James
attention was given her. Mr.. Meyer was
picked up in an insensible condition and
placed on the sidewalk, where he lay gasp
ing for some minutes. Fortunately, Dr. j.
7. Mcfarland happened 10 be in the neigh
borhood, and was Immediately summoned,
and succeeded, by stimulsnts, in restoring
consciousness. a carriage was at once
obtained. and Mr.. Meyer and his wife were
conveyed to their home, on CASTOR street,
uh ha family TlhvEfpian Dr i r Road
was promptly summoned.
Mrs. Meyer struck on her head as
she was pitched out, aud the left side was
severely confused. She also was cut over
the left eye, her left arm was broken
near the wrist, and she was otherwise
bruised and shocked. Mr.. Meyer is more
seriously Injured. He is badly bruised
about the back and legs, and his face and
head are bruised and cut in several places.
No bones were broken, but 1t is feared he
is injured internally, but no definite opinion
can be advanced of his condition at pre-
sent. He is well advanced in life, and such
an accident must necessarily be 8
severe shock to his system, and may be at
tended with grave results.
The horse, after regaining his feet, took
to the sidewalk and dashed along the bricks
in a furious gallop, with the capsized buggy
dangling st his heels. The vehicle struck
against the stoop in front of James Nc
Brides house, damaging it and finishing the
buggy. The animal, thus freed, continued
on his mad career, and but for the prompt
ness of Mr.. Thomas Ward would have
knocked down and probably killed two little
girls. The children were coming along the
pavement unconscious of their danger and
not knowing which way to turn, when Mr..
Ward sprsng in front of the animal and sue
ceeded in dIverting his course. He was sub
seQuently caught some distance from the
scene OF the accident.
