Capt. DOss Stoves Expedition for
Fish.
Some time about the latter part of last
week, a fishing expedition was equipped
and fitted out at this place, by Dos,
Stowe, Jim Lifard and Sherm Orr. Ow-
ing TO certain accidents that befell them
on tho trip, but very little of it is known,
except the boys have got back home per-
fectly destitute Of fish. Report saws they
went to BrOdy's Ferry, on Tennessee river,
and cast their net into its shining waters,
set out a trout line, &c. This being done,
they returned to the bank CT the river,
aud discussed in the most eloquent manner
the extraordinary prospects before them
of u great drought Of fish. The trout:liue
having been ID tho rivers short time they
put themselves each in the little bateau
prepared for the occasion and began
coursing their line. Getting into the river
some distance where the current was run
ming rapidly, some water happened to
slosh into their bateau, whereupon great
excitement ensued. This excited the
boys. The river began to run swifter
and swifter as they advanced, and their
excitement higher and higher. Imagine
what a beautiful scene it was. Doss
Stoves excitement knew no bounds and
out Of the bateau he went into the river.
throwing the water into the atmosphere
like unto a rhynocerpus leaving the othel
two boys in the bateau fervently and
honestly asking the help of their heavenly
Master. Here ensued one of those heavy
scenes. AS good luck would have it, the
boys managed to get to the shore where
they entered into avow Of great solemn,ty
never to fish in Tennessee river again. II
is not known whether the boys broughI
back any of their outfit, as they return t
home to Sweetwuter n by one.
