that the conflict in question was long,
expensive, and. for time. most dis
astrous one. The Indians knew every
foot of the vast swamps and dense
forests into which they adroitly led
our troops, while the latter in the intri-
cacies OF the to them bewildering
Jungle became more and more mys-
titled and discouraged as the une-
quail contest went on. MANY wears

has passed into history, and the once
heroic band of savages has. in the In

place and comparatively quiet COM
munity. but the Everglades still remain
silent and unknown. The expedition

which the telegraph cable now leaves
the mainland for the West Indies, and
from which it is expected that regular

timately be established. As has been
intima.ed, the primary object of the in
teresting expedition is to give the world
some account of a region which. for all
practical purposes, is less known than

The great need of the country is good

the country was awakening to this

$500 to give his daughter musical ed
