GEORGIA'S FAMOUS SWAMP.
Some Account ola Region That is
Strangely Dismal.

Down in the wiregrass, where the
stately Georgia pine mingles with the
spreading Florida magnolia, lies the
great Okeefeenokee swamp, larger in
extent than any county in Georgia and
surprising in wild desolation the Dis
mai swamp of Virginia. says the At
lanta Journal. No white man has ever
traverSed its hidden recesses, and even
the untamed Indians, when they
roamed unmolested the broad sayan-
nahS of the wiregraSS, Stunned it as a
land which the Great Spirit had made
to tremble under his curse. Its dense
swamp, lmpenetrabie as the jungles of
India, where the pine, and the cypress,
and the maple, and the black gum and
the tupelo are clad with the dark-grav
moss, and around the trunks the plant
rattan, the clamberlng bamboo. the
deadly poison oak. the running fox.
grape, AMI the thorny touch-me-not
twist, and cling, and climb. Briars of
rank growth and the gnarled roots of the
sun palmetto and tufts of luXurialt
wiregrass afford a hiding place fol-
mOccaSinS, and scorpions. and spiders.
Where the underground is not so dense
near the margin of the sluggish waters
the football of man or beast makes the
earth tremble for half-dOZen yards in
quagmire becomes so yielding that, in
the expressive language of native r
sit would bog a saddle blanket"
But there are some islands of high
hummock in the Okeefeenokee where
the soil is rich, the sugar cane, corn.
black-seed cotton, rice and sweet pota-
toes will grow in great perfection.
These hooks, or inlets of high land, are
called cow-houses. The name was given
to them because in the old time S, when
the country beyond the Altamaha was
sparseIy settled, the pioneers who
owned large herds of cattle were accus-
toned to drive them into these inlets,
where they could find abundant pastur-
age. and one man at the gap or mouth
of the inlet could guard hundreds of
head of cattle from straving off. Us
