p,sasant occasion.

A Grand barbecue was given at the Jen-
lxins Spring, SOME 80 miles down the Cum
berland, on Wednesday last, which was,
both in attendance and the enjoyment af-
forded, one of the most agreeable gather
ings of the kind that has occurred for
long while. Over a thousand persons were
present, among whom were large number
of beauteous and lovely ladies. The ex-
uberant and boundless Inequalities of the
people of that section, always eminent,
shone eonspicuously on the occasion. The
barbecue was all that could have been de-
sired. Roast meats Of every variety, SUBJ
stantials, vegetables, etc, prepared in the
best of style, were on hand il great profu-
SION. The music was furnished by VIII
sons String Band, and was delightful. The
entite day was passed in pleasant socialities
and festivities, interrupted only by rain,
that came up near 10so'elock. This did
not prevent those present from enjoying
themselves, as they found good cheer and
accommodations in the farmhouses of the
good people of that section.
We take the occasion to remark that the
efficient agent of the UNION AND AMERICAN
in that locality, Mr. Glenn, is daily favoring
us with lists of new subscribers, He says
that the people are delighted with our
mammoth weekly in its present enlarged
form, and are readily giving their subscrip
tions. sft@

Heavy and Important salt.

We see from the Knoxville papers that
in the United States Circuit Court now in
session there the great case of @. A. Bulk
lev, of New York, against McEwen &
Wiley, will be tried. 1t is an action of
ejectment and involves the title of the
celebrated Coal Creek mines of the defen-
dants and of the Knoxville Iron Company.
The land claimed by Mr.. Buckley is now
worth from $50, 600 to 100000. The suit
was begun in 1857. 1t was first tried in
1918 before Justice Catron, sitting on the
Circuit and jury, and was decided in
favor of MIR. Buckley. Col. Baxter then
appeared for the plaintiff, and Col Lyon
and Joseph b. Heiskell, Esq, for the de-
PENDANTS. The case was appealed to the
Supreme Court of the United States where
it was decided in 1864. The Judgment was
reversed on technical points, as is claimed
by plaintiffs attorneys. From the great
value of the property and the important
points involved, the trial will be watched
with interest. MIR. Buckley claims the
mines under grant issued in 1888. De-
PENDANTS claim seven years adverse pos
session and loss of prior grant. Messrs.
Baxter, Champion and Kicks, and Young
and Gibson for plaintiff; Messrs. Wash
burne and Caldwell for defendants.
