LANDS

Our lands are not as low priced
as lands in some Of the mountain

per acre. Much good land may be
bought at from So to $12 per acre.

son AND PRODUCTS.

The county is not plain, nor yet
is 1t a mountainous county. Inc
famous New Market valley runs
through the county from northeast
to southwest, and contains a body
of as fine farming lands as can De
found in the State. There is com
paratively little land in the entire
county that is not tillable. But in
fertility the land varies from the
rich alIuvial bottom TO the gravelly
knoll. Much of the county. how
ever, is mulatto clay soil, underlaid
with limestone and marble forma-
tious. The productions of the coun'
ty are exceedingly diversified. 1t
is hard to say what is the leading
product. 1t may be wheat, or corn
or hay. All the grains do we'll here.
1t is hard to tell which of the grass-
es does the best. Timothy, red
clover, orchard grass, blue grass

SOCIETY.

The character Of our people may
be best shown by a statement Of a
few facts like these: There has been
a liberal tax laid, and cheerfully
paid for the benefit of common
schools every year since the county
has been an existence. l should
say that there lie not man in the
county who lives as much as two
and half miles away from his near
est church or nearest school house.
If there is now more than one
house in tue county at which intoxl-
eating drinks are retailed | am not
aware of it. / think there is but
one. I undertake to say, there are
a greater number of Temperance
people" in HambIen county in pro-
portion to population than in any
other county in East Tennessee.
There is but little drunkenness, and
as a consequence but little crime
among us. These facts may speak
for themselves as to society here.

HIST 0RIGAL SKETCH or HAM
BEEN COUNTY
the Editor Of the Morristown Gazette:

I am asked for an article giving
short historic description of our
county of Hamblen, and avail my
self OF little leisure to de-so.
HISTORY, BOUNDARY, &C.
The county came into existence
as q municipal organization in 1870.
It is among the smallest counties in
Tennessee as to territory. 1t is
composed Of parts of the old coun-
ties OF jefferson, Hawkins and
Granger. 1t is washed on it's north
ern boundary to the full length of
the county by Holston river, and
touches for some distance on its
southeastern boundary the Nola-
chucky river. The East Tennessee,
Virginia & Georgia railroad runs fol
about twenty miles through the
county, four of tie stations of that
road being within the county and
another very near the line. The
Gin cinnati, Cumberland Gap &
Charleston railroad, SO far as con
structed, has one Of its termini a
Morristown, the county site; the
other at present being at VOL
Creek, near the North Carolina line
Two of the stations Of this road are
within this county, so that the coun
tv needs no better railroad facilities
than it already has. l suppose, NO
a citizen of the county lives furthe
than FIVE miles from his nearest rail
road station.
