| EAST TENNESSEE UNIVERSITY,
= March 18th, 1872.
| Editors Chronicle.
! DEAR SIRS: The following is an account
of a geological survey recently made by
the Senior Glass of the University:
| The Senior Glass of the East Tennessee
| University, under the command of q. b
Brazelton, and through the directions Of
| Prof. F. II. Bradley, recently made geo.
| logical survey of the Knox Limestone
| formation. This magnetism limestone
outcrops, from beneath subsequent de-
post, few rods from the south end of the
Knoxville and Charleston Railroad bridge
over the Holston river, and extends about
four hundred feet north of the Knoxville
Rolling Mill, where it terminates abruptly
by fault This stratum, about $500 feet
thick, is interspersed with an Oolitic ebert,
a rock consisting of minute concretionary
spherules, resembling the petrified roe of
fish: the name is from the Greek word,
Don, egg. 1t is slightly magnetism.
This limestone formation corresponds to
the calciferous formation near Quebec, and
should be classed with the Quebec group.
These rocks have been greatly disturbed
since their deposition the beds lie with
their edges to the surface, and dipping at
large angle. The average angle of dip is
about As degrees with the horizon, though
at one place, at the railroad bridge over
the creek in front of Col. Thornburgh' g
residence, the dip is nearly vertical for a
short distance.
A thin stratum of calcarious sandstone
appears about the middle of this forma-
ton. 1t is about eight feet thick, and is
to be seen Outcropping at the south end of
the cut near where Clinch street crosses
the railroad.
This stratum indicates that the CONT
nent was submerged and the barriers,
stone deposition, were swept away, and
the sea washed in that land deposit. Soon
afterwards the continent, which was con-
stantly Oscillating, rose again, and the
limestone deposition went on as before, I'M
til another radical change took place which
caused the formation to cease.
The general strike of this formation is
North about sixty degrees, East by South
so many degrees West. 1t is owing to the
cavernOus structure of this rock, that
Knoxville especially, and all other sections
of country through which it passes, are
indebted for their numerous fine springs.
The formation is well known by the nu-
merous caverns that traverse the course of
deposition. Many of these caverns under
lie the city of Knoxville, and are occasion
ally struck in sinking wells and founda-
tons for houses. One of them has been
recently discovered in sinking a cistern on
CIinch street, near Gay. 1t is quite likely
that this cavern passes under the north
end of the custom house, and may possibly
be the cause of injuring it some time in
the future, though we hope not.

4 PROMINENT LAWYER MURDERED,
WhisIkey the Cause.

Our dispatches yesterday morning allud-
ed FREELY to the killing of Mr.. Lamb
den, of Paris. The following account of
the affair we clip from the Memphis AUG-
ldnche: l.
Monday evening, about o'clock, Colo
mel Lambden "a prominent lawyer of Paris,
Tennessee, was shot and killed in that
place in a personal difficulty with a des-
Dorado named Robinson. They had been
drinking together, and at the time were
considerably under the influence of liquor.
The origin of the difficulty is not known,
but it is thought that a law suit which
the Colonel was prosecuting was the cause.
After talking for moment, Robinson
drew navy revolver and fired. The ball
struck the main artery of the neck, and
severing it, caused death in less than five
minutes But the one shot was fired at
him by Robinson, who, seeing the Colonel
fall, turned and walked from the saloon in
which the difficulty occurred, revolver in
hand.
The murderer escaped. The town was
aroused in short time and the town con-
stable started to arrest Robinson, who had
mounted horse belonging toanOther man
and was leisurely riding off. Robinson
warned the constable that if he advanced
on him he would fire. Not intimidated,
however, the constable did advance, when
Robinson fired twice at him, fortunately
without effect. The constable returned the
fire, but with what effect is not known, as
the murderer passed on from the town and
disappeared in the woods. A posse of men
was organized and pursuit instituted
but nothing could be seen of Robinson,
who is supposed to have fed the coun-

Dead-HeadS.

The following, from the pen of VIM. L.
Tinsley, of the Lyons IN. " Republican,
will be appreciated by newspaper editors
who have been victims of the nuisance of
which the writer complains:
1t is common for certain classes of peo-
pie to look upon newspaper editors as
dead-headsH par excellence. But the truth
is, there is no class of people so remorse-
imposed upon by dead-headism in myriad
shapes, as these very newspaper editors
themselves. We will give an instance or
two, by way of illustration.
There is the man who has patented
new sort of thingumbOb, for regulating"
the heat of stoves. He comes to us with
a specimen of his thingumbob, and tells
us it is the greatest blessing ever invent
ed it will save lots of money for poor
people; only let it get into general use,
and the community will rise up and call
him blessed. He wants us to publish his
invention through our columns for moth
ing; he posters us with it, till we are
strongly tempted TO rise up and call him
the reverse of blessed, and show him the
door. However, we don't; we are too
good natured and too overwhelmingly po-
lite. We don't even tell him he is dead
head.
There are the associations that get up
schemes for benevolent purposes. Of
course the editor must do their advertising
for nothing it won't cost him any
thing" to give them free notice. Per-
haps he obliges them, and perhaps he
shows them his advertising rates. Some
of them, no doubt, are excellent people,
and believe themselves in the right. What
ever else they are, however, they are dead
heads.
There are the temperance societies and
missionary associe lions, and mOral-reform
agencies, and associations for the furnish
ing of the Hottentots with flannel draw
ers and cod-liver oil. "Can you ask as to
pay you for advertising?" "Can you re-
fuse to put in our notices of meetings, and
so on, and have the hardihood to ask us
for money when the poor Hottentots are
perishing with cOld?" Certainly not,
dear dead-heads. Fetch on your notices,
we will print them, provided they are not
too long; but remember you are dead
heads.-ROlCeWS Reporter.

The Baltimore Sun, referring to the re-
cent outrageous seduction ease, i'll that
city, wherein minister of the gospel fig
ures as the villain, says: I'm his sermon
yesterday morning at the Central Church,
the Rev. DR.. Munsey, while not alluding
particularly to this immediate case, took
occasion in the course of his discourse to
refer to the duties of a pastor. A minister
was commissioned to preach the gospel
that was his duty-yet the minister who
was the most social and made the most
visits was the most popular. A pastor is
made cOnfidant of in almost every par
ticular, and he was granted a freedom
about the house not accorded to others.
This should not be. a minister, in that
respect, should be treated as other men.
The perversion of the Office of pastor to
such an extent was the cause of much
trouble"

CURSED BIZ TIE KUKLUX.
The Fate of Young Tennesseean who
Fled 10 Kentucky for Refuge.


Considerable sensation was created in
Murray night before last by the report that
band of kuklux from Henry county,
Tennessee, had appeared in the suburbs of
Murray, for the purpose of numbering a
young man living at VIM. Ryan's named
Mac Aaron. 1t appears that young Aaron
was some months ago Instrumental in de-
featiHg the designs of gang of robbers in
Henry county, who had laid plan to
rob one Major Ray, and rob and murder
one Robert Caldwell. Through his agency
both plots were frustrated, and one of the
gang was captured and suffered the eX-
treme penalty of the law. Since that time
the crew have been constantly seeking
Young Aaron's life and he has been COM
pelled to flee from place to place to avoid
them. For a month or so past he has been
living at Mr.. Ryan's, in fancied security,
but on Tuesday night he somehow got an
inkling that the ruffians were after him,
and about midnight three men were dis
covered lurking in the neighbOrhOOd of
the house, who were doubtless the would
be murderers. Young Aaron was greatly
distressed, passed a sleepless night, and
left this neighborhood early yesterday
morning, declaring it his intention to quit
the United States. Mr.. Aaron is very
worthy young man, and Messrs. Caldwell
and Raw, for whose sake he is enduring
this dreadful persecution, should either
have his enemies sought out and extermi-
mated, or else find him and furnish him
with abundant means to make himself
comfortable in some part where they can
not reach him. He was in very reduced
circumstances, leaving here with only ten
dollars. Murray (Ry.) Gazette, Fe6. %.
