five feet, after which it narrows down
and terminates abruptly against the
rock. From times long ago this cave
has served as a place of safety to
boatmen. travellers and fishermen,
and has sheltered them from the
storm and from the night. A roman
tic atmosphere attaches to the. place.
I think there is a secret passage
through the cave, leading beyond
and around that apparently solid
wall, into another immense cavern,
whose walls are studied with rough
diamonds stalagmites and stalectite
of gold and silver reaching upwards
from the floor, and hanging from the
ceiling; great clustering masses of
the precious metal gushing from ey-
cry seam in the walls. This room
leads far back, miles and miles, un-
der the hills, and the riches it con-
tains are immeasureable. In the dis.
lance can be heard the long, sulien,
resounding roar of subterranean
waterfall; and feeling of dread
creeps over the soul as you listen to

We are glad to notice that several OF
our citizens are setting out shade trees
in front of their dwellings and grounds.
The expense of producing and setting
out these trees IS small and is certainly
an excellent Investment, as nothing
adds more to the beauty of a residen ce
or street. We have heard of township
in an eastern State which has miles of
streets, arching over which, the sugar
naples growing on either side meet,
forming the most delightful driveways
They cost nothing, comparatively.
Fifty years age the county offered to
allow the land owners who would set
out naples along the streets, credit on
their taxes Of twenty-five cents for each
one living the year following transplant
ing. Thousands were set out, and in
few years these trees added to the value
of the lands enough to repay the expense

accounts of its great efficacy. It has
been used with the most satisfactory
results by great number of our citizens,
for various diseases, such as Soar Throat,

who has tried it, speak of it as wonder

The history of Hancock county, for
the last three years, has been one Of con
tinnal strife and bloodshed. The wild
est stories OF the Highlands of Scotland
two hundI ed years ago could be rivaled,
if not surpassed, by the desperate en-
counters between the clans of Newman's
Ridge and those of other parts of this
unfortunate county. The laws Of the
United States, the laws of the State of
Tennessee and the laws of God are
alike disregarded and trampled under
foot. Almost every week we hear of
fresh fight, and the woundiDg or killing
of two or three men. Spencer rifles,
Enfield rifles and navy pistols are almost
as common over there as they were dur
ing the civil war, and they are used on
all sorts Of occasions. Notwithstanding
all this, there are great many good
citizens in that county-men who love
peace and who deplore the present I'M
fortunate state of affairs After a while
it is hoped this class will get the control
of matters into their own hands, and
then the community win be peaceful and
prosperous.

PHE GHAN0ELEORSHIP.

To the Editor Of the Morristown Gazette:
The friends of Col F. NJ Fulkerson
in Hawkins county-and all the people
in the county are his friends-are graft
fed to see his name brought forward by
prominent citizens of the other counties
in this Chancery Division as proper
person to fill the office of Chancellor for
the next eight years. We people in old
Hawkins know all about Col Fulkerson,
and kR0so, beyond any sort of doubt, that
he is thoroughly qualified for the posi-
ton. AS this county has been sneered
at by some people for presenting too
many candidates for office heretofore,
neither Col. Fulkerson Tor his friends
have felt like pressing him upon the pub
lie thus early in the canvas. II is with
peculiar pleasure, therefore, that we
read the letters in your paper last week
calling upon him to run. All that was
said in those communications in regard
to his character as a gentleman, hisqual-
ifications and fitness for the place, and
his popularity with the people, is true:
He would make an excellent officer, and
it is the opinion of most of the voters
hereabouts, of both political parties,
that lie can be elected. We, of old Hawk
ins, thank you for publishing these let
tiers, and respectfully request yeu to
keep the ball rolling. The GAZETTE is
doing good solid work for the country
when il advocates Frank M. Fulkerson
for Chancellor. HAWKINS
