Macon Telegraph Messrs. Ham. Fagin
q co. nave ordered the material TO build
two light draught steam boats TO ply the
Ocmulgee. These boats viii be very ser
yiceahle to this firm, If they are used for
no other purposes than hauling from the
river swamps the hard woods useu in
making barrels at the factory operated
by Messrs. Ham, fag1n x Co. There is
something further than the mere hauling
of WOOu behind the construction of these
boats. Several settlements adjacent TO
the river are being formed by the COLOMBIA
ton schemes that are being carried out by
Gov. Northen's company, and several 9TH
or companies of this kind, and the object
Of the builders of these boats is to also
use them as freighters between this city
and AbbeVille Great trade is anticipated
from these new colonies, and the gentle
men who are building these boats, are 60
ing to be prepared to haul freight from
Macon TO Fitzgerald which viii be the
station to which the colonists will have
their goods shipped. and from which they
viii ship their produce. BY rail, shipments
from Macon to Fitzgerald would have 20
traverse three different roads. First, down
the Georgia Southern and Florida to Cor
dele then over the Sam road 10 the june
ton of the Albany and Waycross, and over
this line to Fitzgerald. BY boat the ship
ment would be much easier and sulely less
expensive. Goods could be put aboard the
steamers here and carried to Abbeville.
and thence a short haul via the Albany
and Waycross to Fitzgerald. Messrs.
Ham, Fagin q Co. Recognize the advan-
tages of boats in such a trade and mean
to avail themselves of il. The boats will
be very light draught and capable of navi-
eating the Ocmulgee in all ordinary wealth
er.
