well known that after the General Assembly
Of 1874 had fixed the rate Of interest upon the

means and instrumentalities by which prIn-
clpai and interest were to be paid, the Board
OF Liquidation Of the former administration
closed It's doors. and ceased to receive appllca-
lions Tor funding, when 1t became evident
that the funded debt was becoming inconve-
niently large. and, In consequence OF that fact.
the prompt payment Of the interest on the
public debt was becoming problematical The
former authorities, In default OF the perform
ance OF the duties imposed by the statute OF
1874. threw upon the present Board OF Liaui-

disposed Of by after administrations. Had

CHATTANOOGA MOUNTAIN GOING DOWN INTO

The following is telegraphed from Attain
ia, Ga: ..' "'. '""~
In the northeast corner OF this State re-
cent heavy storm occurred, with thunder
aud lightning, to an extent Heretofore un-
known, accompanied by terrible shaking
of the earth.' The day after it was discov-
cred that the northeast side OF Chattanooga
mountain, four miles northeast OF Tallulah,
slopng down to the Chattanooga river at
an angle OF iorty.f Eve degrees, the top OF
which is about 1900 feet above the river,
was gradually sinking. A party OF gentle
men visited the mountain last Sunday, and
found that 1t was not sliding. but sinking,
making break near the top. and at one
place on the top OF sloplng ,,u - tJIiHs ,SIi}Hese,

acres about thirty or forty-rather in

top Of the mountain, where the greatest
depth OF sinking is. III the centre OF this

trees are now standing with their tops
downward and the roots up. and large
stones are seen down the mountain. made
an estimate OF the measurement of the place
to be two hundred feet in diameter. Since
then the earth has continued to sink until
it is nearly level with the river. The phe-
nomenon is being considered by the State
geologist and many scientific men. The
theory is that the river is gradually hollow
ed out away under the mountain.
