Of The Mammoth Cave OF Kentucky,
is tn, property Of the family Of Col Crognn,
formerly OF Louisville. He purchased it
about twenty yeals ago, Gin consequence OF
so many questions having been put to him in
regard to it while he was in Europe,) for
the sum Of one hundred thousand dollars for
his purchase. His disposal of it when he
died is thus referred to in western paper
ain his will he tied it up in such way that
it must remain in his family for two genera
tions, thus appendng its celebrity to his
name. There are 1900 acres in the estate
though the cave probably runs under the
property of n great number of Land owners
For fear of those who might dig down ant
establish an entrance to the cave on theiI
own property-a mans farm extending uT
to the zenith and down to the nadir-great
vigilance is exercised to prevent such subter.
ranean surveys and measurements as wou't
enable one to sink a shalt with any certain
ty. The cave extends ten or twelve mile:
in several directions, and there is probably
many a backwoodsman sitting in his hu
within ten miles Of the cave, quite uncon
scious that the most fashionable Indies ant
gentlemen Of Europe and America are walk
ing, without leave, under his potatoes ant
