WHAT is IT?
Some Thoughts Suggested by the
Recent Commandments.


TAzEwELL, Tenn June Z, 1873,
To the Editor of the Horristown Gazette:
I notice in your paper that SO ma
ny schools are closing out this sea
son, that am persuaded to believe
that in every county and in almost
every neighberhood in East Tennes-
see there are many young men who
have returned from school with a
view to enter on tie duties which pre-
pare them for future life. many of
whom have graduated. many have
arrived at an age that IL becomes
necessary for them to enter on the
road which leads to wealth, honor dis
tinction, ETC., and many others from
o scantiness of means and from q
general sense Of necessity are COM
PEELED to do something.
The question as to what they will
do remains unanswered As a gen.
eraI thing. young men who have been
educated in our colleges aspire fer
higher stations than common labor.
Many are studying law. others med
icine. Many who have small CAPT.
tails and who are expecting to be
commercial men are trading ingoods.
The scarcity of money compels these
to deal in country produce, upon
which there can be nothing made by
those who live so far from market az
we do. We are compelled to boat
our grair and bacon as the only
means of throwingit upon amarket.
This is a hazardous way of market
ing produce, as has been shown by
our last tide, and only gives those of
the North and West great advan-
.tage in the markets, from the fact
our grain must lay over till spring
before we can ship it; and when we
do get tide all the surplus produce
on Powell and Clineh rivers is run ont
and packed and piled at Chattanoo-
ga for sale. The buyers then have
the selecting, the talking, the buy
ing and the paying all at their own
option. We can say nothing. only,

BAVARDAGE FROM MINERAL
MINERAI H111 sPRINes.


MINERAL HILL SPRINGS,
Beams Station, Tenn, June 10.
To the Editor of the MorTfstown Gazette = ~ ~
/ suppose might have called it
Gossip from Mineral Hill" but
then / always did love the rolling
sound of mighty words. There is
certain dignity about Bavardsge that
is deal more impressive than its
more common place Synonym, gossip.
I confess 1 never heard Of the word
until few moments ago, when !
took down my Unabridged for the
express purpose of finding high.
sounding title for my weekly (the
word has two forms, choose which
you please,) letter.
The truth is, 1 am afraid have
been too simple in my language up
to this time. When scan the high
reaching titles which adoFn the let.
ters of some of your correspondents, j,
am struck with amazed admiration.
Where did they find them? is what |
want to know. Did they, like your
correspondent, have recourse to the
Unabridged? 7EE
1t hurts my pride to be beaten in
a matter like this, and am resolved
that hereafter my titles shall rival
-. S. WIS.," Ga.
But what has all this to do with
Mineral Hill? Suffice to say that the
"Hill'' is still as delightful as ever;
indeed more delightful, for it has
been subjected to a course of paint
ing, &C., which makes it look spick
and span new. Here one finds the
hearty good cheer that last summer
rendered the place so attractive to
its many guests.
Prof. Davidson's fine school in
Rutledge closed last Friday, and
was informed by one who was pre-
sent, and he a most trustworthy
young gentleman, that it was de-
lightfuI occasion. The commence
ment exercises were held in the court
house, and the spacious building was
literally packed. Quite a number of
persons from Mineral Hill and vicin.
ity attended the conmencement, as
we'll as the picnic next day, and they
all came back giving glowing ac-
counts of the hospitality and court
esy of the people of Rutledge. Such
occasions are pleasant change from
the monotony of every day existence.
We heard Of an amusing incident
which occurred in the region known
as Skinfoot. a few days since. A
youthful lover Of about sixty sum-
mers took unto himself fair bride,
whose age was TO his as 8 to 8. AT.
ter the wedding was over, some en-
thusiastic friends of the new made
Benedict baseiged the dwelling and
began to go through that weird aud
we'll known practice of "shiyareeing"
the young couple. The timid bride
thereupon tainted. and the irate
groom, gathering his gun, rushed out
upon the serenaders. Whether any
lives were lost we are unable to say.
but the practical jokers left instanter.
The valley is looking beautiful
now. The verdue is as green and
lovely as Eden probably was.

grand opening ball on the 18th, and
of course we shall have the nonOr of
