Port Royal.
We glean from different wined tlie following
account of this place, 'which is an island situated
at the mouth of Brow River, near the entrance
from the Atlantis. It is said to be one of the
finest harbors of South Carolina; and one of the
noblest inland waters'of the whole south. The
harbor of Port Royal is about 75 miles south
west of Charleston, and about eqtd-distant
between that city and Savannah. The entrance
from the Athudilei between Hilton Head Wind
and St Heleruilsbuad is &bind three miles wide,
and has, even over the bar, three and a half
fathoms, or ' twenty-one feet, and probably
twenty-seven feet at high tide Within' the
navies of the world might float. Sixteen miles
from the sea is the town of Beaufort, "the water
approach of which , does not admit vessehr of over
eleven feet draught. A few nines back Of Beau
fort is the railroad connecting Charleston and
Savannah, itself aPpioichable by Port Royal
Inlet and St. llelena tiouird. 'Tile whole of this
region should be studied on the map„ as it has
quite an amphibious character. The mouths of
the rivers and the inlets of the ocean inclose a
number of islands of considerable size,among
which may be mentioned Hilton Had, St.
Helena and Port Royal.
POET WEAL IN THZ OLDEN TOOL -A. NAVAL
IXPIDITION THEIR HUNDRED TZARS sao.
Porl Royal, it appeals, pommies an interest
ing history, and was a point of some notoriety
three Mntnries ago. We quote the following
'from the New York limes :
The region around Port Royal Entrance and
Island tuts a strange, eventful and romantic his
tory. ,it
t was, in fact, the first settled spot on
the coat of North America. How interesting,
in vies of our expedition, to read the story of
another expedition to the same locality just
three hundred years ago. The first colony was
sent out by Admiral Cologni, a zealous Protest
ant, and then one of the Ministers of the Crovni.
who at the time of the war between the French
Protestants and Catholics, " obtained permission
of Charles IX, to plant a colony of Protestantß
hi Florida—a name then applied also to a gait
Out of the Southern coast. Command of two
vessels was accordingly given to Jean Ribald;
"a man expert in sea causes," and in the spring
of 1661 he landed on the Florida coast. - Sailing
northward, he discovered several rivers, one of
,which, from "the fairness and largeness of its
harbor," helcalled the Port Royal River.
• The old chronicler, Landoniere '
who accom
panied the expedition, describes the scene in
glowing colors. Splendid forests, Shores fes
tooned with rich grape clusters, birds of brilli
ant plumage, stags and deer in the luxuriant
savannahs. As tue commander cast his eye
across the waters of the beautiful, river before
tglem....--x---.44usiA t er.' and. measured the
breath of its mouth antn k .„ & ,, u ,„
ing, he persoaded himself that " -- al the argo
sies of Venice could ride }upon its bosom." Ac
cordingly, upon the island a few miles up Port
Royal river, he erected, it is said, on the very
spot where the town of Beaufort now stands, a
pillar with the arms of France, and a few days
after built a fort, which, in honor of his King
—Charles IX—he called •" Charles' Fort"—
.drx Oiroltna—from which circumstance the
country took the name of Carolina. Thus it.
was that on that very spot that, for the first
time, three hundred years ago, on the North
American coast, the flag of a civilized colony
might be seen by the approaching mariner.
But the first French colony did not flourish, and
after sending out another to the same locality,
the French, in 1687, gave up all idea of making
settlements.
It was almost a century after this before the
English began to colonize around Port Royal.
Early in the seventeenth century Lord Cardross
led a colony from Scotland, and settled in Port
Royal ; but this place,
.niairutug, fro m =agree .
ment with , the Lords Proprietaries, ' l eo-ordinate
authority with the Governor and Grand Council
of Charleston it was compelled, with circum
stances of outrage, to acknowledge submi ssion.
Settlement, however, does not seem to have
progressed very rapidly, for in a tract entitled
"A New Dear:gist of that Fertile and Pleasant
Prompted of arrolina, by John Archdale, Governor
of the same, 1767," the following passage occurs:
"The principal place is Port Royal—please
God it may be seated with English and Scots in
a considerable body, , because it is a bold port,
and also a frontier upon the Spaniard at Au
gustine. The Scots did, about twenty years
since, begin a settlement with about ten fami
lies, but were distressed by the Spaniards. 01
how might the Scots that go now as Switssers to
serve foreign nations; how might they, I say,
strengthen our American colonies, and increase
the trade of. Great Britain and enrich themselves
at home and abroad,"
In 1670, Wm. Sayle was sent opt as ; Clover
nor,and in his letter of instruction he:was told
to "cause all the people of Port Royal to smear
'alkgiance to our sovereign Lord the King, and sub
sdrsbe fidelity to the proprietors and the form of gov
ernment established by them.
Port Royal entrance is an inlet from the At
lantic, in latitude 42 deg. 8 lila. N., 50 miles
southwest of Charleston, and 16 miles northeast
of Tybee inlet, the entr ance of Savannah river.
The opening from the Atlantic is between Ed
ding island and Hilton head island, and at 'that
point is about three miles wide. The prolonga
tion inward of Port Royal entrance is called
Broad river and Port Royal river. Running up
this for about 26 miles, bending off eastward
through the Cooeaw river, and coming out to
the Atlantic again through St Helena Sound,
you have an irregular area of about' 26 miles
by 15. Allis amphibious region is cut up by
numerous rivers, creeks and inlets into a great
many islands (sea islands) of various sizes, 'the
chief of which are "Port Royal,"'"St. Helena,"

Tna relation between England and the United
States is now much more amicable than it wan
a few weeks ago ' • something to eat is a more
urgent necexcity than something to wear. There
is no doubt that the Confederate Government
is ably served by its emissaries abroad, both in
strengthening their cause morally and in ob
taining for it material aid. We are well advis
ed of th* activity in England and France, in
winning popular and governmental sympathy.

• The first form of the rifle barrel is an oblong
tile-like plate of the bait Wronglit chamoal iron,
thirteen inches, long, a little more than half an
inch thick, and five anti a half inches wide on
one aide and five iliches on the other, the edges
being bevelled in order to insure a close "join."
The plate is first heated; anfl after several pas
sages through a powerful pair of rollers, Contain
ing a Series of grooves and projections it as
sumes a form not unlike small agricultural
drain pipes. - The barrens then again heated in
a t reverbatory furnace, and passed through a
series of rollers on a set of rodsuutil it is drawn
out to the proper length. The operation is
rather difficult, the grooves of the rollers not
being concentric ; the worknian has to watch
his opportunity very nicely and thrust in the
barrel at the exact moment the proper part of
the roller comes round., The work is so ex-
Iste3tive that during the hot weather the men
ate only allowed to work.liVe hours a day. The
fiat process the barrel Undergoes is that of
"rough boring." This is performed in• ma
chines in which four barrels are operated on
at a time. An instrument like a twisted augur,
attached to a long rod which is Linde to revolve,
the barrel being fixed hotisontally, passes
right through. The barrel is then set and
straightened with hammers by hand. Af
terwards it is turned on the outside and
bared for the third time, the chamber of
the breech bored* out, and, after the end has
been tapped with a fine thread for nkeiving the
breech pin, it is proved for the.first time with &-
heavy chargei of powder. The object of this
early proving is to save the labor which other
wise might be wasted on a faulty'barrel. If af
ter a close inspection it is approved, it is sent to
the "grindery, ' where tlie.outside is ground to
a given gauge. It then goes through some
six -nine operatibres of minot importance be
chines are of Belgian manufacture. The barrel
is firmly fixed at the lower end; aateel rod, con
taining the
pass
that forms the grooves is
made to pass clear through it; a special contriv
ance ensuring• that this shall 'be . deeper at the
breech than the muzzle end. The twist of the
grooves which , amounts half a turn in the
iength of the barrel, is obtained with the as
sistance of a radial steel bar, which is set at such
an angle 'that a rack which elides on it, the
other end of which, gears into a pinion fixed to
the cutting bar, makes that bar revolve to ,the
extent of half a turn as it slides from end to
end. The metal is constantly lubricated and
kept cool by a stream of soap and water. The
barrel having been rifled is then polished and
otherwise prepared for stocking.
tfhe eit04.13 are : made ,by, a copying lathe,
which, like many of the machines use, are
of 'American invention and mantifactrire. The
copying lathe is a machine in whieh a steel
model is placed below the actual stock in the
same relative position, and both made to re
volve at exactly the same rate, thirty-five times
per minute. Against the' model' a guiding
wheel revolves, and a cutter revolving 8,000
thins a minute , soca brings the stock to the
ahkpe of the model, .
There ere nearly 2,800 hen& employed in the
factory, who are paid' by the piece. Any Ma
terial that is wasted is charged to the account
of!the workman who injures it, and as every
portion of the rifle passes through so many
hands, the Weirkinen are a continual check on
each 'other each &hit a receipt for the 'Ma
terial he takes in hand; to the foreman of his
department.,
Many operations through which each rifle
passes before it is ready for use, and thole re
lating to its fittings, and to the Manufacture of
the bayonet, &c., are so similar to like opera
tions in other factories ? that they do not need
description.

mw.vr,%vir Jususi of HORIIIS.—By the way,
speaking of mules, I have a suggestion to offer
to the military authorities : Mount a portion
of the cavalry here on mules, instead of horses
—they don't know how to t rust horses decent ,
ly, and they don't deserve to have them. Take
all the brainless "cavalrymen," who are con
stantly racing their horses up and down at the
top of their speed, as if legions of fiends were
after them, and clap them on mules for a time.
Thbre is no propriety in panitting fools to ruin
valuable S. horses at the rate that some of
them are, doing it now. By the time they are
wanted for active service, their horses will be
worthless.
