A FEW months ago Hon. L. S.
Marye, who once lived in Memphis,
and afterward~ represented the Chat
tanooga district in the State senate,
but now lives at Lynchburg, his
native home, was appointed post
master at Lynchburg. This raised
a storm of Indignation among the
faithful, and he withdrew his name
rather than g embarrass the Presi-
dent and Mr.. Key. The present
incumbent was retained, and the
papers there say he is the most pes
tilent carpet-bagger they ever had

mode of sending small cannon to

and cover that with coat of fire.

and round it is cast an iron column,
like those used in building pur-

not excite the suspicious of the

Of the estate. | was admitted to
the castle by woman, who bade
me climb till | came to the.top, and
she did not omit to caution me
against falling off on the way up.
| climbed, and climbed, and
climbed. Three or four times on
the way to the turrets might have
dropped down from the doorless
passages that open into the interior.
There is not a door left in it from
the foundation to the top. The
castle is like an enormous chimney
full Of small windows. By the side
of the spiral stairs that screw their
way up one corner Of the building
there are small chambers, hardly
large enough for sleeping rooms,
though perhaps once used for that
purpose - with walls of amazing
thickness. On the top | followed
the wall, quite broad enough for a
foot-path, till | came to that part Of
it where the famous stone is lodged,
held in its place by strong bars of
iron. The outer ruin or turret is
larger than the castle, and is held
in its place by protruding stones !;
anywhere along the top between the
supports you may look down the
wall Of the castle between the gap,
and the sight on a windy day, when
the ruin seems to quake under
you, is by no means inspiring.
The blarney stone is clasped
to the outer parapet by the irons |
have already referred to, and in
order to reach 1t you must lean out
over the open space between two
and three feet in width. 1t is
quite impossible to touch it with
your lips without the assistance of
a second party who hangs on to
you in the rear to prevent you div
ing out through the chasm beneath.

about my ears; all the grass and
fern tufts that have sprouted
among the decaying mortar hissed
spitefully. | cautiously crept to the
edge Of the wall and while the earth
seemed to swim under me, while
the walls of the old castle swaved
to and fro, | reached out to the
parapet and touched the stone with
my finger tips. This is as near as
l ever got to it, but | have had
enough. There is a stone down
stairs on the ground which is con-
sidered far more convenient, and is
usually substituted for the original.
For more than four hundred years
this castle has been the sole feature
of Importance in a very cheerful
though lonely landscape. The
square tower, with its machicolated
battlement-all that is left of the
castle-has been visited by pilgrims
from every cline. But it doesn't
pay. 1t is very dreary and very
tireSome. The man on the lawn
who sells bog oak ornaments is
more attractive. The woman who
holds the keys Of the castle, and
who talks as if she had been
brought up on blarney stones, is
better worth your attention.
