From St. Mary s river to the river Savannah there is a chain of Islands, which seem as if placed there by nature as a protection to our coast; they form a number of safe and commo dious harbours, with good anchorage and have an inland naviga tion between them and the main. The principal are Cumberland, a large Island, which forms one part of the entrance into St. Mary s river, and Amelia Island, belonging to Spain, the other, through Prince William Sound; Jekyls, St. Simon s, Sapello, St. Catha...r ine s, Ossabaw, Warsaw, Skidaway, Wilmington, Tybee and White Marsh. Those Islands produce immense quantities of black-seed Cotton, called Sea Island; were originally covered with live Oak. From them the timber for building our navy is procured. PRINCIPAL TOWNS Savannah, which may be considered as our commercial Capi tal, is situated upon the south bank of Savannah river, in latitude 32:5, seventeen miles from its mouth. It stands on a high sandy Bluff, which is elevated fifty feet above the water, is regularly built.
