Marion Convention means business,

first to cool ourselt in the shadow
of the great forests which wrap
their wreaths of evergreen about

There is magic in the touch of their

there is the stimulus Of music and
the wine Of recuperation in the

and the Rich and Walker-forever
coming but never gone. They
bring TO lis from the sweet and flu

touches Of the purest breezes Of the

golden threads of hopes and fancies
which are too delightful to he Who'll

Remarkable Cave and Stream

One remarkable feature of Cum
berland Gap is the stream that turns
the machinery connected with these
works. It issues from a cave some
two or three hundred feet up on the
side of the mountain. The mouth of
the cave is now so obStructed by the
Debris thrown down from the rocks in
making the Virginia Road" as to
preclude any one from entering. -
Some years ago, however, an explor-
ing party under the superintendent
of NJ. Elijah Jones, of Powelrs VAL
ley, recently deceased, followed the
stream in the cave a distance of sew
en- miles, aud still met with no OBJ
struction that would have prevented
their proceeding farther. They as
certained by chain and compass that
for this distance it follows the course
of the mountain, and probably con
tinues to do so for a distance of
eighteen or twenty miles, as a
shower Of rain at that distance along
the mountain will raise the stream
when there is no rain nearer the
mouth of the cave.-Cunaberland
Spectator.
