DIhiiiuI Hwniiip. It occupies- n billowy
plain Homo forty iiiIIom In length by
tweiiiy-ilvo mllen In breadth nlong tho
Atlantic Henboard, extending from Buf

liitu the boumlH of North Carolina.
IIh deep HlutileH, great HtreteheH of

region of linercst. To the nnturnllHt
ami HportHimiu It bun much to offer.
In Its Hllent fiiHliiense the black bear
finds a home admirably adapted to hi
protection and In every way fuvornblo
to IiIh incrcaHc. Hero amid the denso
growth of un lerhriiHli and timber ho
tuny live In comparative safely. And
there Ih perhaps no loullty In tho
whole eastern United States of like ex
tent which can offer a larger bear pop
ulation than this great morass. The
white-tailed deer Ih uIho an abundant
denizen of tho swamp, frequenting the
clevnled partn.
In addition to the deer and hears
there Ih 11 hlg-gumo feature of 11 rather
unusual nature. The swamp abound
In wild cowh. These animals, of a
brown color an 1 somewhat smaller
than the ordinary cow, having for
many years been under tho peculiar
conditions of the swamp until they are
almost completely specialized, are ex
tremely wild. They nre fcrallscod from
the herds of the farms adjacent to the
Hwnmp, and are tho dcHceudnnts of cat
tle which ninny years back wandered
Into the fiiBtncBHes and were lot to
their owners. Being no longer recog
nized as property the sportsman may
call game all that he may hare the
prowcHH to shoot.
Lake Drmnmond, some ten mllc.4
from Suffolk, Vn., Is the only great
body of water In the swamp. It Is n
beautiful Hhcct of wnter, of nn oval
contour, and fringed with a heavy
growth of timber, mostly cypress,
white cedar nnd black gum. Its water
Is of n dark color, owing to the decay
ing vegetntlon of the surrounding coun
try, hut Is suitable to drink, nnd pos
sesses tho quality of remaining pure
longer than most other water, h'or
this reason It Is often carried to sea by
sailors on long voyages.
The characteristic mammalian fauna
Is of a scmltroplcal nature as regards
the smaller forms, while there aro
many tropical plants. Of. birds there
nre not many kinds, prothonotnry,
hooded nn-1 Swalnson's warblers and
the Maryland yellowthroat being the
principal smaller forms. The trees,
some of which nre primeval, nre large
and beautiful, while there Is a luxuri
