Letter From South-East Fla.
Lake Jessup, Fla., August 10, 1868.
Or. E. A. Jelks. 1
In compliance with a promise I made to
write to you after becoming domiciled' in
Southeast Florida, I will devote a few mo
menta to the discharge of that obligation.
I have no donbt but that you had loog
since concluded that I was either a poor cor
respondent or a bad person to comply with
a promise. The first conclusion would have
been correct; as lo the second, deponent saith
not.
I have not written before now for several
reasons, prominent among which are that I
knew yon were kept posted in regard to our
health and general conduct by Gas, Ned
and others, and then I did not care to write
until I had become better informed in regard
to this country from actnal experience. I
desired to express myself candidly and hon
estly, bnt could not do so until
mosphere becomes so cool each night, even to live, to bring one or two good hands with

which you are more direotlytinterested; viz:

this subject that! hardly know what to say
without being, too prolix. Tq cnt the mat
ter shoit, we can raise oranges, lemons,
limes, citrons, grape frnit (a speoies . of the
orange), pine-apples, bananas, guavas, and
almost the entire list of tropical or semi-
tropical fruits. Oranges, lemens. and pine
apples grown here oannot be surpassed by
any in the world for size, juiciness, and del
icacy of flavor.
If yon have never eaten an orange which
was allowed to remain on the tree until per-
phohions sound of their trombones at the
rate of forty thousand a miniate. The truth
is, an up-country -man cannot live there.
His very life-blood will be sucked out—
Withont this insufferable plague the Indian
river country would be a paradise.
But the future of Orange county is lumi
nous with the radiant beams of prosperity.
The “desert will soon be made to blossom as
the rose." Oar wide forests already begin
to prostrate themselves at the feet of the in
dustrious axeman, and mother earth is filling
the coffers of the energetic husbandman witb
her rich treasures. Where bnt recently the
wild beasts of prey held their midnight or-
fectly ripe, yon cannot imagine what a de- gies will soon be heard the sounds ot mnsic
licious frnit it ip. The culture of oraDge is and dancing, and then (?)
attracting more" attention’than any'other
fruit, and many persons are engaging in it.
I am not surprised at this either, when I
think of the poor “Reb" who has been
robbed of all he possessed in bis Btruggie to
be free, as he ooDtemplatea his five or ten
thousand a year from a small grove of or
ange trees. And this is no freak of fancy.
Bat this begins to soand too
much like a Soph., so 1 will conclude
by telling you of a prank of Bernard
and its consequences: Oaring the spring

by an unnanal disturbance among the

cursory manner, try your patience for once.
Ia Ibis immediate vicinity there are five
different characters of soil, all remarkably
similar in oue or two respects.
First of all, we have a rich, black ham
mock soil, composed chiefly of decomposed
vegetable and calcareous matter ana silica.
Tuis hammock borders the Lake, and will
produce corn, cotton, rice, tobacco, sugar
cane, melons, vegetables of every descrip
tion, and tropical or rather s6mi-tropical I
fruit3 in great perfection, and is considered' * SH 18
the richest soil we have. Next is a grey
hammock soil, composed of a good propor
tion of organic matter (but not so mucb us
the black hammock) and much inorganic,
chiefly silica. The substratum is a deep-
colored, yellow sand. This may be termed
a sandy loim, but from its productions it evi
dently contains a fair per cent age of marl.
The gray hammock lands are more eleva
ted and consequently dryer than tuo black
hammock, and produces everything nearly,
or quite as well a3 the latter—though it is
my opinion it will not prove to bo as durable
on account ' of the' large proportion of
20 cents
Placrng the quality raised at my
lowest estimate—150 pounds per acre
and at present prices you will realize $125 J
to $150. The culture of sugar cane is more
profitable. Averaging yonr crop at ten |
barrels per acre and yon have $250 to $300
Rice may be placed at fifty bushels for an
entirely safe calculation, and at the price for |
which it readily sells, ($3 per bushel) you
will make S120 per acre. Potatoes will sell
for SI per bushel at all times here, and will
therefore average $150 per acre, and so it is |
with any crop planted, except vegetables,
which will pay from five to ten times as
much money per acre as aDy of the articles
named above.
The above mentioned crops will make
from a third to as much again per acre oh
our best lands, as the average I have given
them. Thus yon will perceive that a man
need not sit down and wait from five to
seven years on his orange orchard before be
can begin to make money.
He can make a decent support for himself I
ing the progress of the engagement, saw
that it was now live or die with pap, so, al
lowing their attachment for him to overcome
their fear of his antagonist, they rushed to
bis assistance, armed with 1 sticks, clubs and
hoes, and witb united blows they succeeded
in vanquishing Don's indomitable foe. Then
yon may rest assured, the welkin was made
to ring with rejoicing. I have poor Rey
nard's hide, nicely dressed, which will be
preserved as a trophy ia “proof of the pad
ding when the bag is exhibited.”
I am, dear sir, trulv your friend,

Descending the scale of fertility, comes
next in order a well timbered pine land, witb
a datk or lead-colored soil, containing some
organic matter intermixed with a small per-:
centage of clay and calx, and a large amount
otsand. It is astonishing how..well this ail
produces, especially if it has been trodden
by cattle for a few weeks. It will produce
anything planted. Corn growsjas ioxuriolls-
ly on it, as that raised on any of the oak and
hickory lands in Georgia.
Ths three classes of soil described will
produce per acre: corn, ten to fifty bushels;
rice, thirty to seventy-five bushels; sweet
Potatoes, one hundred and fifty to two
hundred bushels; sugar cane, eight to twelve
barrels sugar ; long staple cottoD, one
hundred and fifty to three hundred pounds,
and everything else in proportion.
The fourth and fifth classes of soiU are
poor, dry, sandy, black-jack ridges and saw
palmetto flats. The first suited for little else
than as places of residence, and the last as a
range for cattle and hogs. Cattle do well
here, and hogs keep fat the year through im
berries, nuts, acorns and roots. There i3 a
specis of flag or water lilly, which grows on
the margin of the streams and ponds,' pos-
tessing exceedingly acrid' and' pungent
properties, ol which hogs are remarkably
load, and on, which they keep fat. It is
known here by the name of “Wampee.” There
is another growth of our swamps which hogs

Lake. Jessup is aJbeautifnl sheet of water
about twelve miles in length, and from three
to five in width—shaped somewhat like a
horn, and cannot, therefore, be called a cres

is distant from Jacksonville by water about
two hundred miles. Good sized steamboats
"can ran up the St. John’s river and into the
lake at all seasons, and during the greater
part of the year there. are from five to ten
feet of water on the bar. This is certainly
