aid says: The richest and most ex9
tensive discovery of rock phoso
phate in the history of the world
has been made in Tennessee. The
deposites underlie tour counties in
the vicinity of Nashville, Davidson
Williamson, Rutherford and Maui
ry. The rock lies in a vein avera~
ging from three to twelve feet In
thickness and is but ten feet below
the surface The commercial wall
ue of the discovery it is impossible
to determine, but the output will
be worth more than that of the
richest gold mining district in the
world.
The discovery of the phosphate
was made by a Mr.. Clark, of q we'll
known chemist firm in Atlanta,
Ga. Among the men who, IT is
said, have bought up large tracts Of
lands in the above named counties
are George W. Scott, capitalist of
Atlanta, Ga; Philip D, Armour, OF
Chicago; James Madison, Of La
Sale, Ind, and the Northwestern
Fertilizing Company, of Chicago.
Representatives of Europeans are
now in the field. Carloads OF rock
have already been shipped 10 New

steamers have been cleared from
Florida points loaded with phos
phate rock from Tennessee. Large
consignments have been shipped tc
Atlanta, aud it is stated upon re
liable authority that several fertil
