WHOLESALE MARKET REPORT

COMMERCIAL.

KNOXVILLE. Tenn, Aug. 81, 1872.
Prices on Wheat have not, as anticipated,
been materially changed by the corner" in
Chicago. Our readers will notice an advance
of five cents on the bushel for new prime Wheat.
But little doing in other grains. Feathers,
wool and dried fruit were brisk yesterday, some
heavy shipments being made which indicate a
demand from the East and West.
The wholesale trade among our merchant has
only been fair. The majority Of the country
merchants have not as yet been able to bring
their grain to market, consequently there has
been a scarcity of money which has had de-
pressing effect. The chances are, however, that
trade will commence and continue to improve
about the first of September.
Quotations of leading articles:
WHEAT-New prime white wanted, $1.20a
1.25; red ST.. 10a1. Is per bushel

Morrell,s Cave.

A party from Bristol visited NorrelPs Cave,
near Union Depot, and furnished an account OF
their experience The cave is about two miles
distant from the station and runs nearly all the
way along the river bank, presenting to persons
unsccustomed to the mountains, OF whom there
were several in the party, some beautiful
scenery. The cave opens from bluff that looms
up gracefully and gloomily as if to terrify the
beholder with its sublimity. At the lower
mouth where spring runs out the air Is ICY
cold, making it dangerous undertaking, for
one, heated with the exercise of coming there
under an August sun, to stand in the draft OF
air that is constantly rushing out. About fifty
yards up the hill is the upper mouth where they
entered.
With plenty of lamps they entered this very
queer place. where the air was found very light
and bracing instead of being damp and OPP
pressiye, as was expected. The walls and foo
were very slippery. There are several apartr
ments, all of which were entered. The ball
room was chosen as place for brief rest, where
the smooth floor, high roof and smooth and APP
parently polished walls show it to be approprl-
ately named. Then past the Pool of Bethesda
and the Gate of Purgatory, up Jacobs Ladder
and into Paradise, wherei they turned back,
being little afraid the oil in the lamps might
give out and leave them in rather an unenvi-
Bic situation. As they approached the open air
the sunlight had softened and peculiar look,
not unlike that emitted by calcium lamp.
Wo condense the above account from the
Bristol Courier.
