ORIGIN 01'. THE
LAKES OF . KILLARNEY,
It brit been a remarkable fine day, but a
suiNen tempest, such as-only exists in wild
mountainous districts, had arisen, and I was
reluctantly compelled to give up my geolo
gical researches, and fly 'into a cabin which
stood some hundred paces off, in order to
escape the jury of the storm, or, a sailor
would express it, the squall, for its (lunation
was rot above half an hour, ceasing as cud
kf. enly as. it had unexpectedly begun.
The cottage whTch - 1 now, entered stood in
ono of the most-romantic-crags of the Me
gillacuddy rocks, overlooking the Magnifi--
cent lakes of Killarrey, on which the sun
but a few moments before-had beemshining
ightly, presented nne of the most beautiful
landscapes in Europe, and cOntrlisting
suangely with the rocks around ore. and the
pimial tempest which was bowing-Idown the
arbutus shrubs on every side.
As lemered and solicited shelter, I recoil •
raised, in the comer of the.cabin, one of the
boatmen who had often rowed me over to
Lord Headley's picturesque Island. It was
this man who bail, in the flannel poetic
strain inherent in the breast of every Irish
peasant, told me of the cities and villages,
the nymphs and millant knights, whom he
had pretended to have seen in clear wea
ther 'beneath the deep waters. It was this
Mall who bad often amused me by the
strange local legends of Killarney ; .1 there
fore..felt no-surprise, when - after-receiving
me with the tone and sincere hospitality of
a kind Kerryman, he alluded to the raging
storm in his usual metaphorical style.
, God - 'presarve your honour, and knpo ye
from all ,harm. Sure the O'Donogltue, rest
his cowl in glory ! is riding fiercely to day.—
tV ould that his horse's hoofs Wore bate!'
, 1 don't understand you.'
'Alt, thin wasn't it myself, your honour,
- who Could -you about- the - O'Donoghue, being
the 'guardian and keeper of these lakes l' -
'Yon did, my friend, but you informed me
he lived under tine water.'
'Arra, tam its himself that does. But suns
when he rises, he causes the bright lake ter
swell and toss, widths sea nymphs catch the
weeny craft in their silvery arms, they,'re all
lost and gone. It's many. a one seen
them grasp and carry down to the bright ci
ty, where. Ibteristal palaces are iebtibited by
the loveliest daughters Of ould
'Ali I thin is just O'bortoghue, great glory
to him ! that's
.passing just noW, ye see';
for though it's not tio oouT, - nor - the time he
should be on the watch, it's himself that of
ten comes, bar us from all evil! stud stirs up
the mountains as lie looks on the lake, over
which he isle:cod to'keep guard.

I entered. A popular preacher was holding
forth, arid the littie meeting house was very
much crowded. Several persons were stan

woods arid the fragrance of the heath seem , .
erl to respond to his eloquence.
Then it was no great stretch of the imagi
nation to fancy that the white-handed dice-
tures around me, with their pouting lips and
I artless innocence were beings of a higher ' ,
sphere. As "my feelings were thus divided
between the beauties and blessings of the

devotion, I detected some glances at me of
an animated character.

THE HUNTER OF .TALLULAII.
• Tallulah Falls Geo •9 Ap r , 29 18.18.
Ten subjct of my present sketelt is ADAM
VANDEVER, "the Hunter of Tallulah." His
fame reached my ears-soon alter arriving in
this place,.and, having obtained a guide, 1
paid .him a visit at. his residence, Which is
planted directly at the mouth of the Tallulah
chasm, He lives in a log cabin, occupying
. the centre cf a small . valley, through which
the Tallulah river winds its wayward COMM.
It is completely hemmed in on all side's
wild and abrupt mountains,
and dne!of the
Most romantic and beautiful nooks imagina
ble. .Vitsturee. is about sixty'years. of age,
small in stature, has a 'regular-built weaSel
face, a small . gray eye ' and wears a long
white. beard.. He was born in South Caro
lina, spent his early manhood. in the Wilds of
Kentucky, and the last. thirty years of his
life. in the wilderness of Georgia. By way
of a frolic, he took a patv in the Creek war,
and is said to have killed`more Indians than
anY other' white man in the -army. lit the
battle of Ottassee alone, he is teported to
have sent his rifle-ball through the hearts of
twenty poor heathen, merely because they
had an, undying passion for their native hills,
which theyyouhl not bear to leave for an
unknown wilderness. - But Vandever aimed
his rifle at thuommand of his country, and
of coutse the - cliafge of bate t
ery does not rest upUn _his head._ He is now
living with his third wife, and claims to be
the lather of aver thirty childre . n*, 'only' five of
whom, however, ate' living under his roof,-
the remainder being dead or 'scattered over
the world. During the Sampler months lie
tills, with his own hand, the few acres of
land Which constitute his do:prin. His live
stock consists of -a mule_ and some half
dozen goats ; together with a; number of
dogs.
On inquiring into his forest life, he gave
me, among others, the following particulars:
'When the hunting season commences, early
in November, he supplies himself with every
variety of shooting materials, steel-traps, and
.a-comfortable Mock of provisions, and, plac
ing them upon his mule, starts for some wild
region among the mountaitis n where he re!
mains until the following spring. The',
shanty which he occupies during this season
is Of. the rudest character,,with one „sitle -ah
wayii open, as he tells me, for the purpose
of having an abundance of fresh air. In
killing wild animals he pursues bin two
methods, called "fire-lighting" and
hunting." His favorite game is the deer,
but he is not riarticular, and secures the fur
of every four-legged creature which may
happen to cross his path, The largest num
ber of skins that he ever brought home at
one time wa4 six hundred, among which
were those of the bear, the black and dirty
Wolf, the panther, the wild-cat, the fox, the
coon, and some dozen other varieties. He
computes the entire number of deer that he -
has killed in his life-timeat four thousand.—
When spring arrives, and he purposes to re
turn to his valley home, he packs his furs
upon his old mule, and, seating himself
upon the pile of plunder, makes a bee-line
out of the wilderness. And, by those who
have seen him in this homeward: bound con
dition., I am told that he presents one of the
roost curious and romantic pictures iiaagina-
Lie. While among the mountains, his beast
subsists upon whatever it rosy happen to glean
in its forest rambles, and, when the first
supply of his own provisions is exhausted,
he usually contents himself with wild game,
which he is. often compelled to devour un
accompanied with bread or salt. His mule
is the smallest arid most miserable looking
creature of the kind
,that I ever sew, _ and
glories in the singular name of "The Devil
and Tom Walker." \\ 'hen Vandever inform
ed me of this fact, which he did with a self
satisfied air, I told him that the first part of
the mule's name wits more applicable to
himself than to the dumb beast ; wh&eupon
he t'grinned horribly a ghastly snide," as it
I had paid him 'lt compliment. Old Vande.
ver is an illiterate man, and when I asked
him to give me his opiate') of President
Polk, he replied: "I never Seed the Gover
nor of this State; for, when he come to this
country yemS IWO, I was oil on 'tourer side
of the ridge, shooting .ricer. I voted for the
General, pill that's all 1 know about him."
Very well ! and tkis. thought 1, is one of the
freemen of our land, wl.o•help to eh/AA our

On questioning my hunter friend with re
gard to 80 me 01 his' adventures, he commenc
ed a rigmarole narrative, which would have
lasted a whoile mouth haul 1 not politely re

I took a portrait of him in pencil. 'His sto

below, T'ie 4, bucmade its — estape, and Van
clever Was not sett oslyinjered in any par-
Idealer. About a month subsequent to that
time lie killed a buck, which had a bullet
- wound in the lower part of its neck, where
' upon he concluded that he had filially W
urnphed over the anima; which 'had given
loathe unexpected ducking.
But the most remarkable escape which
old Vandeves ever experienced, happened
on .iliis wise.. He, was ncamped uporrono
Of the loftiest mountain in Union County.—
it was - near the twilight hour, and he had
heard the liowlA,etvialf.' With. a view of
ascertaining the direction whence' it came,
he clithbed'upon an immense bouldei-roek.,
_
(weighing-perhaps fifty .toner)-which stood
-upon the very brow of a steep hill-side.—
. While standing upon this .boulder he sud.
denly felt - a swinging sensation and to his
astonishment he found that it was about to
make a fearful plunge into the ravine half a
.mile below him. As fortune would have it,
the limb of an oak tree :drooped Over the
rock; and, as the rock started from its tot
dish foundation, he -seized the limb, and
thereby saved his . life. The dreadful crash
of the boulder as it descended the mountain
side came to the hunter's -ear while he was
suspended in the air, and. by the time it had
reached the bottom he dropped - liiinsell on
the very,sput which had been vacated by the
- boulder. Vadever said that this was the only
_time_in-liesAile-when—he-harl---be-em-really
frightened-;- and 'he also added_ohat for
- one
day after -this escape he did'not care a fin
ger's snap for the bdst game in the wilder
neSe. .
- - . - Wirilintri — frit to'Vandevei's- cabin,
'one 'of his boys came home from a fishing.
expedition, and on examining his fish I was
surprised to find a couple of shad and three'
or lour striped bass or rock fish. They hid
been taken is the Tallulah, just -below the
chasm, by mean& of a wicker net, and at a
point distant from the ocean at least two hum.
Bred and filly miles. I had been informed
that the Tallulah abounded in trod!, but I
was not -prepared to find salt-n ater fish in
this remote mountain wilderness. •
Since 1 have introduced the 'above youth
- Sul Vandever to my readers, I will record a
single one of his deeds, which ought to give
him a Loraine, or at least an education. The
incident occurred when lie Was in his twelfth
year, He and a younger brother had been
gathering Heroes on a mountain-side, and
and were distancfrom home about two miles.
While carelessly tramping down the weeds
and bushes, the yrringer boy was bitten by
a rattle-snake on the calf of his leg. In a
few. moments -thereafter the unhappy child
fell tcrthe'grOund in great pain, and the pair
were of eon roe in unexpected tribulation.—
The elder boy, having succeeded hi killing
the rattlesnake, conceived the idea, as the
o,nly alternative, of carrying-his little brother
dioine upon his back. And this deed did the
noble fellow •aeco:nplish. For two long
-miles did he carry his heavy burden, over
'rocks and down the water courses, and in
au hour after be had reached -his father's
cabin the younger child was dead; and the
heroic boy was fn a state of insensibility
from the fatigue and heat which he had ex
perienced. He recovered, however, and is
now apparently in the enjoyment of good
health, though when I fixed my admiring
eyes upon him it seemed to me that he was
far from being strong, anti it was evident
that a shadow rested upon his brow.
