A volcano has broken out in Sumner
county, between Gsllstin and the Ken
lucky line. II is said that the explosion
was seen BY a negro, who represents it
as a stream of fire of considerable *
tent, rushing from the earth as highas a
tree. The marks are yet visible to all
who call. The earth on the knob is
considerably torn up, and the trees adj
%jacent are scorched and burnt to the
tops, but there is no fire or smoking is-
suing at present This discovery ac-
counts for the phenomena of the rocks
falling 8 or 10 miles from that spot on
the 9Th May last-Herold.
