THE VOLCANO OF THE FLORIDA SWAMP From the Tallahassee (Fla.) Patriot, June 12 On Sunday night, a week ago, a large bright light was seen in a south-easterly direction from this city, which attracted the attention of many of our citizens at first, but concluding that it was a house on fire, they thought but little more of the matter until the light reappeared several succeed- ing nights in the same place, and put them to think- ing again. It is much brigher some nights than others---sometimes having the appearance of the moon rising, but generally much brighter, and looking more like a large fire shooting its flaming tongue high up into the upper realms, frequently reflected back by passing clouds. During the past week we have conversed with several parties liv- ing in that direction, all of whom had noticed the light, and located it in the great swamp south-east of here, on the Gulf coast, and about the same spot from whence the much-talked-of column of black smoke has been seen to issue for years, supposed to be a volcano, which no living man has ever been able to reach, from the fact of its being surrounded by an impenetrable swamp. We were told last Tuesday by a gentleman living in Wakula County, near this noted swamp, that the light had created much excitement in his neighborhood, as a loud, rumbling noise was frequently heard in the direction of it during the week. The noise was said to be so loud Thursday, about midnight, as to arouse the sleeping family of Mr. Frank Duggle, and cause them to get up and run out doors, think- ing another earthquake was on hand.
