Prof A. Kccsis Of TuIlahoma, and for
merly Of Nashville, recently purchased of !
the Nashville and Chattanoega Railroad
Company large body Of lands adjoining
the town site of Tullahoma, and with he
family occupied the buildings ren tbs
premises known as solitude. % The Ffoi
lessor to his fine literary accomplish
naents adds the good taste Of having every
thing nice aa fat about him, and is great
lover Of ireestone water The we'll IN his
yard is very flush, and has for long years
been considered highly medicinal and
sanAii se. To What particular mineral or
Cause TO attribute lis peculiar virtues, has
been an unsettled problem; but the fact that
whoever regularly for eyensa shortspace of
lime drank of its waters, if puny or sick,
got well, and stont, and hearty, was widely
known Hence It's celebrity has for years
been considerable among the natives.
The Professor, noticing that the we. j
had, perhaps, never been wholly drawn Of
its waters and thoroughly cleaned out
since il was dug, some fifty years ago, and
that It would require triple force to draw
them OF completely, put it On, and after
long and laboriops effort, laying bare 10
the eyes the naked rock at the bottom, dis
covered il ats center a stream of pure,
strong chalybeate water fushly flowing
into small natural basin, while all
around the edge of the rock COM
| prising the rim or circle Of The bottom
Of the we'll, innumerable rivulets Of the
purest free stone water flow in pellucid
current, than which none can be better.
The chs1y beate and free stone water eau
be easily kept separate, with appropriate
/ appliances at reasonable cost. The dis
covery Of this valuable, and ever-howing
stream Of pure chaly beats water is 3 great
desideratum for Tullahoma, and will GER
/ tainly make il one of the standard places
Of summer resort for health or pleasure,
for all the low country, for everybody and
his wife, aud "the rest Of mankind - f,r af
these noble and precious streams Of cha.
~ beate and free-stone water are at the base
of the Cave Spring Hill, which overlookf
all Tullahoma, and which is twenty feet oil
30 higher than the town, il would no doubt
be very acceptable to the public TO see 8
large hotel erected near these waters for III
accommodation and if Prof. Kocksis were
/ w Auy On q eOWn SibC tucIC CAlCuuAuk ths
railroad in lots suitable for the erection O
summer residences, it would, no doubt, b.
peculiarly satisfactory, and acceptable Il
the public. Lots thus adapted would nj
doubt meet with ready purchasers at profit
able prices, and be speedily improved ane
embellished to the great advantage
health, social improvement, and enjoy
ment of all concerned. -.,-''- D
| Ii is understood that Prof Kocais ha
been already earnestly solicited TO adop
this course. The writer will only add OF
this occasion what has been already dc
seryedly said Of it thousand times an'
more, that this is a most delightful regiol
to dwell in, especially during the summe
heats. 1t is in itself then happiness t
breathe its fresh, pure and exhileratin
atmosphere, and altogether it is
section of country of uncommon salu
brity and pleasantness and in proc
of its soft and equable climate, tend
ing TO promote longevity and the physica
strength, and growth of man, there can b.
seen in TuIlahoma and the region roun'
about it, more gray-headed old men an
women, hearty and hale, in proportion I
| the population, and more robust and flo
healthy looking young men and women
and more sprightly, rOsy.cheeked, vigorou
children, than in any other section OF gu
widely extended country, and no mistake
about il at all. PHno MONTANA.
