THE FLORIDA EvERGLADEs.-The communication
copied yesterday from the National IHteLiigencer,
announces q most important faet-g fact be
with reference to the Everglades of Florida. The
writer states that the waters of that immense swamp
have found an outlet through which they are pour
ing themselvesin great volume toto the Gull OF Mex
leo. An embracing many millions OF acres,
hitherto submerged, is thus to be converted into
dry earth. If SO, il will probably be found TO be
much the largest body of rich laud in Florida, and
extending several degrees further South than Lou
sisns, no other portion Of the Union will compare
with il in adaptation TO the culture of the sugar
cane and other tropical products. Under the
swsmp" grant, it lie all the property Of the State,
and BY her internal improvement act has been pied
ged as basis of credit for the several railroad enter
prises of Florida.
Not the least important of the consequences of
the change, it may be hoped, will be the facilities
thereby afforded Gen. Harvey for operating against
the Seminoles The obstacle of overlooking waters
being removed it via, be possible TO reach aud cap
ture or refusing quarter, eItermnate the saVages.

MCGAvocK. Suburban towns an1 villas grow
ing up around Us, adding much of Importance and
beauty to the city and its vicinity. Smart little
towns have sprung into existence out of the imme-
date limits OF the city, within few years, dotting
its outskirts with inviting retreats and handsome
clusters of cottages. None of them are far remov.
ed from the business portions OF the city. few
minutes walk from any of these localities brings one
20 nearly any part of the city. What would many
New Yorker or Philadelphia say to accomplish
ing such a distance. To them il would appear a
simple recreation. So soon, too, as the travel to
and from these points becomes Of sufficient impor-
lance to warrant the enterprise, regular lines Of
omnibu es will doubtless be placed upon establish
ed routes, and all who desire It can be conveyed
back and forIh for a small sum. Among the recent
ly laid off adj AGENT to the city, that named at
the head Of this article is destined to become one
Of the most desirable place of residence. Il
Is no longer an Inaccessible faubourg," TO those
who desire slice to make a home upon. Il
beautifully laid of last year into roomy lots, with
wide avenues, streets and alleys, &c, that every
convenience and all necessary Improvements

VINO have sought after water upon the grounds in

90 secure lots there, will 6ud them oil ready to

mourning the Asuale1pense ofpreparipg the ground
which is something Of an item. This ground is
high, and known to be in one Of the healthiest
portions of country anywhere to be found in this
entire region. IL lays beautifully, too, being gen
ely ascending from the city, Of which a foe view
can be had from almost any point Of the plat. The
whole tract is covered with ine shade trees which
have, judic,ously, been left, and are among its
chief ornaments. Altogether AcGsvock posses
es attractions Of which few suburban towns can
boast The enterprise Of its owners Is not surpass

its It's precincts. Such spirit is worthy Of praise
and imitat on, and when these grounds are again
offered for sale, we have no doubt that Il viii be
