A Gigantic Scheme.

A Philadelphia dispatch SAYS :
Now that the philadelphia capital.
lists who were about to reclaim the
immense tracts of ldnds in the
State OF Florida, known as tue
" Everglades, have completed their
contracts with that State, it IA 10

features OF the gigantic scheme is
the building OF ship canal across
the State OF Florida. This project
almost equals IN importance that
OF res'ainiing 12,OOO,OO0 acres OF
the richest land in the world south
OF the frost belt. A ship.canal
across the State OF Florida has
been the dream Of engineers for
many years.
IL would not only shorten the
distance between the American
ports ON the Atlantic coast and all
shipping points on tho Gulf OF
Mexico, bat it w0uld avoid the
dangers to navigation which are
experienced OF the countless keys
otf the southern aud southwestern
coast OF Florida. All ship captains
know OF this danger, which is often
aggravated by hurricanes which
are common to the southward OF
Florida, but Nhich are compare.
lively unknown on The west coast
IN the region OF Tampa Bay. Ii is
well known that number OF New
York capitalists have been endeav.
Orlns for some years to get Il char.
ter tr0m the State OF Florida, but
the Philadelphia company, with a
great deal of shrewdness, have got
ahead of them. II is believed that in
connection With the lsthmus Canal,
now IN course OF construction un.
der NJ Ferdinand dc Lessers, the
Florida canal must at once attract
tue attention of the capitalists not
only OF America but ot Europe.
AS to the feasibility OF bnilling

A Brief Sketch OF Capt. Cole
aud His Lnwless Career.

N. G. Plcayuns.
His general appearance was not
one calculated to inspire terror or
apprehension. Ills manner WAS
exceedingly quiet, aud. although
bearded aud bronze,l by thirty
Years OF exposure to the sun, Capt.
James Cole Drnham, or, as he was
more familarly known, Capt. Cole,
Presented anything bnt a blood
thirsty appearance; yet he bore
the unenvlablr reputation of being
the terror OF the coast from the
EASTERN shore ol the GuIf OF Mexico
10 the mouth OF the Mississippi
river, and wherever stood fisher
mau's hut or u cluster vi houses,
there was the name Of Captain
Cole associated with his record OF
rohbei.irs, aud bis appealance IN
bis slo0p was as dreaded as in days
OF yorc WAS the sighting Of the
typical piratical schooner with it's
tail, raking masts and sharp, mar
row hull. Thus 1t was that he
earned the sobriQuet Of Tho Pi-
rate OF Pontcllarlra;n."
Capt. Denlnam, OF Cole, is II na.
tive Of Scotland, aud IN early youth
trod the deck OF q Iiiun-ot.war IN
the British navy. There he received
the ru,limpnts vi his nautical c,lu-
cation, and his MUD N.eane in
stllled with u love of the sea.
Becoming once more landsman,
he eiuigrated to the United States,
where it is supposed he again en-
tered the navy.
Becoming tired OF the somewhat
ihonotonons life, he left IL and took
up his home on board ons OF he
small coasters plying between PEN
sacola and Mollir, or the Florida
ports. He gained thorough
knowledge Of the iDtricacies OF the
coast as far west as Lake Maurepas,
aud small indeed was the bayou
whose entrance he did not know.
