WARM SPRINGS, N. c., July 5, 1879.
TO the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
Thinking a few lines from this cele-
brated summer resort would be read
with interest by your many friends
throughout the great Tennessee Valley,
and Georgia and North Carolina, | take
pleasure in giving a few items. This
place is one of the few strictly first class
places in the South, for health or pleas
ure. 1t is here the sick, lame, and in
firm can be restored to wonted Youthful
vigor, from all the ills that mankind has
unfortunately fallen heir to. Rheuma-
tism, malaria, govt, congestion of the
liver and digestive organ, partial paraly-
sis, are cured as if by magic, taken to
except, it is also the finest Anti-Fat in
the world. The inducements to pleasure
seekers can not be enumerated Noun
tain views, horseback and buggy rides
and drives, prOmenades, walks, cascades,
water falls are in abundance, not to say
anything of the magnificent new Band
which has just arrived and are on duty
two or three times day, on the beauti-
full green and shaded lawn during the
day, and in the spacious Ball room at
night. The Baths arc the most delight
full known in the United States, in add
ton to the bracing mountain air and
cold sulphur and free stone water, with
good we'll furnished rooms and a boHntI-
fully supplied table of all the substan-
tials North Carolina and Tennessee can
afford, with all the luxuries that eastern
markets can afford, and the best line of
hotel servants and clerks that can be
employed in the Southern States, it is no
wonder that it is the parantage Of the
South, there are already 90 guests regis
tered, and they are coming in from both
ways at the rate of 6 to Is per day from
Memphis, New Orleans, Mobile, Savan-
nah, Montgomery, Shreveport, Augusta,
Atlanta, Macon and many other South
ern towns, while several parties of
friends from Washington, ID. c., Phila-
delphia, p, and other eastern cities
have made engagements. The Bun
combe railroad from MorristOwn take
the passengers through the fertile and
beautiful French Broad valley to Wolf
Greek, thence by good stage coaches
eight miles over a splendid road shaded
by lofty mountains in mid day and fan
ned by cecil mountain breezes and ever
and anon listening to Lhe music afforded
by silvery ripping streams, the weary
traveller forgets himself indulging in
such scenery as was never before seen
in any country. Therefore you see the
Warm Springs fully deserve all of its
and notoriety all over thu
South and North. More anon. UNO.

was fairly passed by Legislature
elected by the people. Charges are
cheap, and yet with all The .ehArges
not a syllable has been adduced to
show that any improper influence
was used to procure its passage.
The case now stands thus: The
railroads have paid their purchase
money to the State; if they are com
PEELED TO pay the bonds outstanding
and owing it will be dollar for dbl.
lar. x The railroads will be entitled
to reimbursement from the State at
the same rate. 1t is easy for the re.
pudiators TO say they will not be
paid, but they will be insisting on
payment when the puny voice of the
demagogues who rail at compton, Use
for the purpose of obtaining place
and pelf is still. They have rights,
and if they have right here it will
be adjusted.
In the whole OF this State debt
question We have been urging the
best policy and the honest and di-
rect policy for the State, not as an
apologist or defender ofbondholders
or railroads, but recognizing that,
whatever the clamor Of the hour may
be, both have recognized rights, and
whatever faults they may have are
not to be redressed by doing q
wrong. II either has a fault, if eth
er is overbearing or oppressive,
remedy that. s......-. .,.-s
These roads are part Of the COM
munity, and it is a most illiberal and
short sighted policy to denounce
them or to treat them as enemies,
for our prosperity is bound up in
theirs. The policy which built them
made Tennessee the equal of States
with greater natural means of trans.
portatiOn. Cripple them and we
cripple ourselves. But aside from
that, if the bondhslders fail TO gain
these suits, we shall have, soon or
late, to reimburse them for every
dollar, 1t is our place to see that
we avoid this danger. The shallow
opponent says wait and see what
they can do. At best they will have
a decision Of the Supreme Court of
the United States that Tennessee
owes every dollar of the debt and
that we will haye TO meet it with the
accrued interest or incur the odium
Of repudlating an adjudicaLed debt.
Let tn settlement be carried and
nearly, if not all. will fund at so
cents. The poorest policy in the
world with debt, public or private.
is the waiting policy. Settle now.

a move is now being inaugurated by
some of our enterprising stock raisers of
Hamblen, to conduct stock sales in this
town during each court term. The plan
is good one and is calculated to give a
true exhibition OF our stock as never be-
fore witnessed, Every stock-raiser in
the county should feel deep interest in
the move and exert his influence to
make it a success. Maj. Tom Cain, our
popular hosteler of the Cain House and
Capt. Frank Taylor, of Russellville, have
offered their services gratuitously as
auctioneers, to whom every one should
consult with who desire to be interested
in the enterprise. Notice will be given
previous to the opening of the stock
show and sale.

A Timely Suggestion.

Last week little Mary the daughter oI
Mrs. Rankin living in the sixth district
was very sick. She had been dosed
with almost everything which could be
thought of and all without any good re,
suit. Her friends thought her beyond
the hope of recovery, and death would
doubtless have been the result had not
good Mrs. FINLEY dropped in and sug.
gested that worms was what allied the
child and that lone dose of Mrs. Wins
lows Vermifuge was all she needed to
make her we'll" 1t is almost needless
to add that Mrs Winslow's Vermifuge
was given and that the child is now well
and the mother happy.

We think it would be a capital idea
for our east end neighbors to contribute
a sufficient sum to put pump in the
public we'll in that part of town. With
a small cost it could be done, and would
render better and safer facilities for
drawing water. The fact is something
ought to be done with that well. The
way it is now exposed, without cover
ing, makes it liable for depository of
filth, and persons using water ont OF it
cannot tell what they are drinking.
Let them put pump in it, nail cover
ing over it. and if desirable, lock the
handle to keep meddlesome children or
persons from breaking it, and each fam
lily interested be supplied with key.

We learn that the Convention was

the Importance and even necessity

ton of the GAZETTE containing the
speeches of Col. A. s. Colyar, recently
delivered at Dresden and Murfreesboro,
touching the State debt question, and
scattered it broadcast over East Ten
nessee, for the purpose of enlightening
some, who may be ignorant, upon the
views of this distinguished gentleman.
Those receiving copy, after reading it,,
will please pass it to their neighbor
to read. Every voter in East Tennessee
should read Col. Colyar's speeches upon
this important question, whether he in
dorses his sentiments or not. They are
uttered in plain English and easily UNI
derstood, and contain facts and figures
that can work destruction on. the people
if improperly managed. @ sinl5
