Lakes and Antiquities Of Winston Co.

Not far from the western slope
arc the noted Humphries lakes, tho
pretliest lakes in east Mississippi.
There are three lakes connected by
a stream sufficient TO pass a skill
from one 10 the other. They arc
from a quarter to half a milo wide,
and two to thirty feet deep. They
have nice shady banks, oversprcad
with cypress shading tho water some
distance. These lakes are resOrted
TO by hundreds during the fishing
season. Bfeam fishing is reduced
to a perfect science.
The lakes, besides fine fishing,
have other attractions. Near them
is quite an extensive cave, contain
ing several chambers, in ono OF
which is the statue OF man, and
near the door leading TO tho upper
the walls arc smoked.
Some persons believe that the rob
Der Murrell and his clan lived IN
this cave. Others believe that the
Indians dug it out following a vein
Of silver, as they had large amounts
Of silver in its natural form that
they traded TO the first white set
Tiers.
Not far from the cave is an an
sient fortifcation consisting Of q
ditch eight feet wide and at one
lime four feet deep, and mile and
/ half long, extending from ono
branch OF Pearl river to the other
Ind enclosing two sections Of land
n the fork Of the streams. About
every hundred yards inside of tho
nclosure are small mounds resern-
,ling cannon pits, and near the cen
re is n magazine. At the south
nd is a large mound, sixty feet in
Iiameter at its base, and thirty feet
{ the top, sixty yards long and fif-
Y feet high. A small piece Of gold
4 its natural state was found noar
he forlification, and ounce balls
1 lead are frequently picked
ID after a heavy rain. History
iils to give any account Of this an
lent work, but no doubt fernando.

The Destructive Fish Iran.

The matter of fish traps is likely
to come up before the board of sup
ervisors at its September term, il
being understood that Mr.. Walker
and others are circulating petitions
praying that privilege. The petit
ton will call forth a counter petit
tion asking that the law be rigidly
enforced and declaring the existence
of traps unlawful. We cannot but
mention an instance Of the whole.
sale destruction of game fish which
occurred only few days ago. After
a little freshet in Luxapalila no less
than forty small trout were found
on one trap the next morning. This
shows the effect Of trapping, and ii
the board of supervisors authorizes
it, game fish will be totally exterm-
mated fpOm the streams around

Someone who seems to know says
that in buying shoes it is we'll to re-
member that the feet are one-third
Of an inch longer when the body is
standing than when seated, and the
elongation is further Increased when
walking, for the weight is then
thrown entirely on one foot at
each alternate step so that in choos-
ing ones boots it is absolutely nee
essary that an allowance should be
made for this. The shortness may
not be felt at once, but after a few
weeks it becomes very manifest; and,
moreover, by forcing the great toe
back it is apt to produce a bunlon on
the joint. Eek.

Unesrtiled a Pot OF Gold.

We are informed that some days
ago Mr.. J. S. Brown, worthy
young farmer residing on the old
"Sutphin" place, near Red Lick. on
the line Of the "Little ]" railroad,
while working in his field, dug up a
pot of gold containing between three
and four thousand dollars in yellow
sinners. What Mr.. Brown acci-
dentally discovered may be found
by others who are prosecuting their
researches in a scientific manner

anees for revealing the places OF

that Mr.. Brown will turn his good

Their mission was quite successful.
They stopped over a. Memphis for
