A Wonderful Cave Over the State
.--. Border,
In Greene County-Wellsburg Waifs-Gen.
eraI Belaire and Martins Ferry
Miscellany.

Just across the creek from Brownsville,
Greene county, Pa, on the farm Of Mr..
James Hawkins, is a curious freak of ma.
ture. Under perpendicular ledge Of rock
rising over thirty feet high, is never.fail.
ing spring OF water which. comes from a
natural cave known asthe "panther's den"
The water is cold and clear as crystal.
There are four passages which, it is sup.
posed, lead to the main cave. They are all,
except one, too small to admit the body OF
man. The largest one, from which the
water flows, has been explored as far as
fifty feet from the entrance, and the per.
son that went in reported that the pass
age enlarges so much that a man can
stand erect; but there has been no one
with nerve enough to venture far
Their. The passage is in the solid rock. An
other remarkable feature is the peculiar
firmness of the stone in this ledge. One
piece measuring 1Sx7x5 has broken of
and rolled down on the creek bank long
before the white man settled there, and is a
standing monument of its durability, and
the elements have not made the least i'm.
preston upon it. For building purposes
there can be no better stone than this. An
old marble cutter said this stone would
last as long as mai BILE, and there is no rea-
son to doubt his judgment. II the S. T.
r. r. is built up this valley this quarry
would soon be opened, and the stone can
not be equaled in the State Tor DURABLE

He purchased at Louisville, Ky, about l5p
tons OF 6 itch gas pipe and tons OF lead:
These materials will arrive the middle OF
April and the work of laying the pipes will
be commenced at once. Mr.. Barclay
speaks in high terms of the kind treatment
he received while on his trip, and also OF
the great interest aroused wherever he
spoke of natural gas as used for manufac'
turing purposes.
The company met on Thursday afternoon
to consider a proposition from some Wheel
ing men with reference to supplying gas
to new glass works, proposed to be estab'
lished.

MEANS RTSINESS,

Ifanybody labors under the impression
that the railroad notices published in the
county papers here do not mean business,
says the Wellsburg HrdH it would be well
enough TO undeceive himself. The project
therein referred to, are parts OF big road
upon which work is progressing every day
and upon which large amounts of good
money are being expended and it will not
be long until something tangible will be in
progress hereabouts. 1t is quite true that
there has not been great deal of flourish
of trumpets about intentions, but never
theless, although the management keep
their own counsel, the intention seems to
be there, in good earnest.
