From tho Dollar Magarina for June, 1851. A StriniER IN GEORGIA- N|*1»C00C11EE— ITS ENVIRONS VND TIUM- ~Few poltions of; oiir. country present stronger uttrnctions to the tourist than Upper Georgia. In the'rariely and beauty ol scene ry it has no superior. But recently the homo ofthe most civilized mid pootical of the Indian tribes,. almost, every mountain, valley and streamlet has its tradition, and at every step-ilia- stranger seems treading upon classic ground. Among the many intorest- iiig'locnlities which he visited, the writer re members none that atlovded him moro pleas ure than the vale Noncoochoo. . It is situat ed in Hohershnm county n short distance froimClarksville, and isnllogeilier'ot.dof the lovliest prospects upon w.lnch the eye ever rested, 'the valley proper is nbout eight miles in length,'nnd it vartes-from one to tiuee.miles In breadth. The Chaitahoochce or Crooked river winds gracefully through it ; at this place it is so nnrrow that a squir rel might leap across.it, while it is environ ed by mountains of rare licaulv. Entering from the west, the attention is arrested by the bald head of the lofty Yonah. or Bear Mountain, on the right; while the still loftier Troy—or more properly Troy—looms tip on the left. Vink, Aunt Salts and Double Head Mountains complete the circuit. On ihe.left hank of .the Chnttahooche, at tho head of the valley, is a mound, of tho most beuutiful proportions, covered with low green shrubs, and crowned by a solitary pine, which waves in solemn majesty far above its kindred of tho forest. Of the valloy and mound there Is an interesting legend, which 1 derived from tho lips of n vonornble woman who has passed a largo portion of iicr life among the Cherokeos it runneth alter this wise : Many, many moons ago thore came to camp.of tho Cherokces a young Indinn of unequalled excellence, accompanied by her ngea mother. Q( a once large nnd powerful tribe, they were now the last representatives, and-lhey asked to bo received into the tribo of tho Uhcrokoes. Their request was grant ed. So dutiful nnd amiable was the maiden that’ she soor becamo the favorite of her new tribe. She was as beautiful ns tho daj- dttwn, and withal so kind nnd gentle, that they called her Naucoochee, or Tho Even ing Star. Not long alter her ndoption, her mother was takon soverely ill. With un wearied assiduity did Naucojcheo keep vi gil over her holploss parent Scarcely an in stant could sho ho persuaded from the lowly couch, and as day aftor day her mother grew worse, nnd the hopo of recovery became fainter and fainter, her agony was almost in supportable. As if determined that sho should not die, Nduchoocheo Hew to the wigwam of the chief, and clasping his knees, with tonrs be sought him to save her mother. The old man boheid her with deep emotion, but .with a solemn shake of tho hand signified that milling could be done. With despair depict ed upon every feature, sho turned away. As sho did so, her eyes mot the sympathizing glanco ol .Chestatee (Tine-Torch,) a young chief who, like horself, survived his tribo -and had sought a home among the Chero kces. Ho nppioached ltor with defo/enco, and told -her that a pale-face, who came from far over tho bine waters, and who was very skillful in the cure of diseases, once liv ed among his people. He said (lie big due- .tor—fur so they called him—was somewhere ■among tho neighboring mountains, and ear- mostly entreated permission to go in search •of him. With n gratoful look, Nuucoochee hade him go. ChcsUtlco tlow upon his mission like an arrow loosened from tho’ how, while the iraiden, inspired with hope nnd confidence, resumed her vigils nt Her .mother’s cot.— iVifh impationt longings sho marked tho tar dy hous,, and lior Heart bounded with joy when tlie souud of coining feet announced the return of tha chief, who soon nppenrod leading in a venerable Spaniard. The old man approached tho couch, end gazed long and earnestly upon the shrunken fenlures of tho almost dying woman. Me then turned to Noucoochoo, and with a look of benevo lent sympathy, assured her that ho could re store her mother. Ho gathered somo roots from the hunk of tho Chattahoochee, of vvh'ch ho prepared a tea which speedily re lieved her; under his treatment and tho care . of tho maiden, tho invalid was soon entirely restored to health. Nothin" could exceed their gratitude to the Spaniard, and’so remarkable was tho cure that the old uhiefs bosoughl him to dwell among them. Ho consented to do so, mid beentno the ilstructor ol Nnucoochee. He taught her tho musical language of tho old Castile, and gradually opened to her view the mysteries of tho healing nrt. The skill she rapidly acquired, added to iier na tive goodness and quick apprehension, ren dered her the idol of her adopted tribe, und ■ often did her interposition rescue the unfor- - lunate prisoner from the jaws of death. Eapec'olly did sho exert Herself in bohulf of the whites. Soon, however, sho had to mourn the death of tho Spaniard, and not long after that of her mother. Chestatee had long been enamored with the young mai den, and now that her mother and instructor were gone, he sought to relieve her distress by the genllo tones of sympathy and lo\e. The quiet mound on the river bank was the favored resort of tlie lovers, and the evening zephyrs borno from thence upon its wings, fnariV a vow of fidelity and truth. It could not be expected lHal the aspirant for such u prize would be long without a'rival. A young Indian of ignoble descent dared to cast his eye upon the peerless maiden. Noth ing could exceed His rage and jealousy when lie learned that Chestatee was favored far above him. The duiker passions of tlie In dian raged fearfully in his bosom, nnd.be irrullered deepy of revenge. Learning of their visit to the mound, ho armed himself - with a large hunting knile, and hid in ambush i.ear the favored resort of the lovers. Soon -I e heitrdthe sound of approaching footsteps, nnd beheld the Happy pair sealed upon the iincssy carpet. Bounding like a panther from :lbe thicket, he seized the chief by the throat .and pressed him to tho earth Planting a ikneo upon the'breast of Chestatee,. the in r :;- riated savage drew '.his glittering knife, but, ere it descended Naucoochee threw herself upon the neck oflier lover, and received the deadly blow. Her fair face became distroy- ‘ vith mortal agony, and her. .raven locks olared with the crimson tide. Willi one f unutterable affection her pure soul as- land of the Great Spirit, and uhat of her lover, who ol- be hate of his riv 1 The lovors were buried in one grave upon : the mound, nnd n lofty pino now imirks their quiet reslingpiace. Tlie mount, became an object of veneration to tlie Indians, and, in memory of their favorito, they call the val ley the Naucoociiee, after her name. Considerable gold has been found in the vicinity of Nouehoochce, nnd ih mining some important discoveries have bean mndo. In the spring.of 1849 a company of miners, not far distant, found n native villinge several feet below the enrth’s surface. There were sixteen, houses in a row, in a (pood stale ot preservation, containing various arti cles of furniture. Cooking utensils of dif ferent kinds, and a considerable quantity of hollow ware were taken out, but when ex posed to tho atmosphere, many of the arti cles fell to pieces. Mount Yonah is worthy of notice. At somo points the view of it is beautiful be yond description. The dome like crest of vhe mountain roaring itself far, far above the mass of heavy foliage around, looks like a grand ohseivation towor, from whence the worlds above and below might bo studied as upon n map. From another point, tho top resembles a Grecian homlet, nnd nt a dis tance it seems to incline like tho tower of Pisa. On one side of the mountain ib an abrupt precipice more than one lliousnhd feet in depth, nbout which neither shrub nor trees is evor found. On the summit ore tho remains of a largo fortification; yet by whom or when erected, tradition is silent. Water runs down its sidos in several places, und looks in the sunshine like broad hells of sil ver. Near the top is a huge rock, supposed to weigh over a hundred Ions, which is so delicnlely poised that it seems the strength of a single porsnn were sufficient to hurl it down tlie fenrful abyss,. Tho view from here is exceedingly beauti ful nnd extended. Hero nnd thore you oh servo a smnll settlement nestling lovingly among the mountain peaks around it, while the river—which you can trnco on immense distance—tho dislunt Bluo ridge and the qui et vale below fill up tho picture. 1 could scarcoly refrain from repealing those beauti ful lines of Coloridgo upon, tho vale of Chn- mouni, ns I gazed upon'the scene. This mountain is a favorite resort. ' Parties . of pleasure from somo quarter visit it almost daily. It was once investod with bears— bonce its name—nnd a few are still lound there. A great hunt cable oft thore a short timo boforemy visit, in which merejhan fifty persons were engaged. It scorns that sever al .dwellers about tho haso of the mountain Had missed from tlioir enclosures a number of infants of the porcine genus, and various were there surmises its to the cause. Some suggested that tho “gentleman in black’’ had entered into tho swine, nnd sure enough one moist morning numistakeable evidence-was aflordod in the impress of feet about the farmyard. The company were soon collect ed, nnd started in pursuit. They traced him readily to tlie mountain, hut fairly upon it they became greatly porplexed. Bruin, like asensiblo bear, hud so mystified things about his retreat, that the parly, after a hard day’s search, wero forced to retire without his aery desirable company GAYLORD.
