He
was
not
mistaken
,
and
those
herbaceous
plants
grew
abundantly
below
the
damp
banks
.
Then
,
the
marsh
passed
,
thickets
of
trees
again
covered
the
narrow
routes
of
the
forest
.
Harris
made
Mrs.
Weldon
and
Dick
Sand
remark
some
very
fine
ebony-trees
,
much
larger
than
the
common
ebony-tree
,
which
furnish
a
wood
much
blacker
and
much
stronger
than
that
of
commerce
.
Then
there
were
mango-trees
,
still
numerous
,
though
they
were
rather
far
from
the
sea
.
A
kind
of
fur
of
white
moss
climbed
them
as
far
as
the
branches
.
Their
thick
shade
and
their
delicious
fruit
made
them
precious
trees
,
and
meanwhile
,
according
to
Harris
,
not
a
native
would
dare
to
propagate
the
species
.
"
Whoever
plants
a
mango-tree
dies
!
"
Such
is
the
superstitious
maxim
of
the
country
.
During
the
second
half
of
this
first
day
of
the
journey
,
the
little
troop
,
after
the
midday
halt
,
began
to
ascend
land
slightly
inclined
.
They
were
not
as
yet
the
slopes
of
the
chain
of
the
first
plane
,
but
a
sort
of
undulating
plateau
which
connected
the
plain
with
the
mountain
.
There
the
trees
,
a
little
less
compact
,
sometimes
clustered
in
groups
,
would
have
rendered
the
march
easier
,
if
the
soil
had
not
been
invaded
by
herbaceous
plants
.
One
might
believe
himself
in
the
jungles
of
Oriental
India
.
Vegetation
appeared
to
be
less
luxuriant
than
in
the
lower
valley
of
the
little
river
,
but
it
was
still
superior
to
that
of
the
temperate
regions
of
the
Old
or
of
the
New
World
.
Indigo
was
growing
there
in
profusion
,
and
,
according
to
Harris
,
this
leguminous
plant
passed
with
reason
for
the
most
usurping
plant
of
the
country
.
If
a
field
came
to
be
abandoned
,
this
parasite
,
as
much
despised
as
the
thistle
or
the
nettle
,
took
possession
of
it
immediately
.
One
tree
seemed
lacking
in
this
forest
,
which
ought
to
be
very
common
in
this
part
of
the
new
continent
;
it
was
the
caoutchouc-tree
.
In
fact
,
the
"
ficus
primoides
,
"
the
"
castilloa
elastica
,
"
the
"
cecropia
peltats
,
"
the
"
collophora
utilis
,
"
the
"
cameraria
letifolia
,
"
and
above
all
,
the
"
syphonia
elastica
,
"
which
belong
to
different
families
,
abound
in
the
provinces
of
South
America
.
And
meanwhile
,
a
rather
singular
thing
,
there
was
not
a
single
one
to
be
seen
.
Now
,
Dick
Sand
had
particularly
promised
his
friend
Jack
to
show
him
some
caoutchouc
trees
.
So
a
great
deception
for
the
little
boy
,
who
figured
to
himself
that
gourds
,
speaking
babies
,
articulate
punchinellos
,
and
elastic
balloons
grew
quite
naturally
on
those
trees
.
He
complained
.
"
Patience
,
my
good
little
man
,
"
replied
Harris
.
"
We
shall
find
some
of
those
caoutchoucs
,
and
by
hundreds
,
in
the
neighborhood
of
the
farm
.
"
