NcWs-rmmeuse
caves Uncovered Under the CITY.
NAsHvILLE, October 30.

NAehNlLLks OCTOBER ~.
A startling discovery has been made in this
city within the last iew days. A large number
OF thieves have been depredsting around the
city for some time past. All Efforts 10 catch
them have been unavailing until lately. Ii has
been asceriaIned that there are five different
caves under the city, which are occupied by
thieves, burglars aud counterfeiters The Nc
Nary vault IN the graveyard has been put under
guard. aud men set TO work to effect an entrance
into the cave. As fast a. the earth is removed
fresh earth is thrown up from the inside of the
cave. This is the same cave that Murrill and
his gang occupied when engaged in running of
negroes and horses. The affair has been kcp,
secret, but leaked out in spite of the military.
A year OF two ago il was reported that a lake.
covering five acres, and very deep, 10 directly
under tue city. One man suesrs TO having
thoroughly explored tie entire cavern, from one
end TO The other. A guard has been stationed over
the Acklen and.Harden ombs. The locks NTH
gives his opinion that the lock on the McNary
tomb hss been used recently. The entrance 10
the cavern is 81 the foot OF Summer street. The
military are determined to hnd out the outlet
Of the cave. The entrance looks like a assure
IN the rock. The discovery originated from the
tact that quite a number of murders have been
committed IN the immediate vicinity, which led
TO al Investigation disclosing the above facts.

From the Louisville Democrat
LErrEK FROM JEtF. DAVIS.

We have often said that JEFF. DAVIS was not
in the conspiracy to dissolve the Union; that he
did not desire IL; and. moreover, that he did not
expect il when be LEFT. the Senate, in obedience
to the command of his State; that be obeye ed in
sadness and In hope, rot of disunion, but of an
adjustment in peace that would be satisfactory
We give below a private letter to a friend in
this city, which was not for publication, and
which. therefore, gives the sincere views and
feelings of the author at the time. 1t is plain
that at tina; time DAVIS did not desire or expect
disunion. We have no doubt abundant evidence
OF the same sort can be obtained. About the
same time a letter was written to a distinguished
gentleman OF the North, by JEFFERSON DAVIS,
which was evidently pepned in sadness and sor-
rev. But here is a copy of the letter, eIcep, a
paragraph or two relating entirely to private sf-
fairs:
WASHINGTON, Jan. %, 1861.
"DEAR SHR: | have the pleasure TO acknowl-
edge yours OF the 9th ult / am on the eve of a
departure for Mississippi. in obedience TO her com
mand, and in accordance with my own views OF
the necessity OF the South. To you l need not
say that the event ID 10 me q painful one; but
there remains to me the consolation that | have
failed in nothing that promised to preserve the
Constitution, and thus perpetuste the Union as
our fathers made it,"
After some remarks on private matters, he
adds:l
Il hope Kentucky, the land of my nativity
will soon take her place in the Southern column.
The union OF the South can nov alone preserve
peace, and in the united strength Of the South ia
the only hope for Justice and a reconstruction oi
The Government upon a basis that will secure the
ends Tor which IL was originally established
Subscribed.
Your friend, JKFF. DDvIs."
