A QREAT $ NA'TON. A.Cave Diseovered in T" noenee. Once Oo, cupled by a Famous Bandit and At3ur' derer. A letter from Hnntingdon, Tenn., to the Nashville World says: On the 11th instant we left Huntingdon for the southwestern portion of this coun ty for a few days' bird and squirrel hunt, having for our companion A. M. Lee, the acknowledged prince of post masters; and let ussay when Hunting. don loses him she will lose a postmas ter that has. pleased every one without a dissenting voice. His. duplicate can not be found. Bcing securely seated behind a two-forty (hours) thorough bred, we were soon on our httuting ground, it being in the immediate vicinity of where we both wore born and raised, as a matter of course we were well acquainted with the woods. Vbile followhng a rocky branch known as the Gin branch, we came to where it skirted the margin of a high hill, our setter, .Charlie, made a dash at a rabbit and both rabbit and dog disap peared in the hill. The entrance was what we supposed to be a crevice in the rocks, as the margin of the hill was covered with large sand rocks; in at moileint the bats came pouring out by the hundreds; the weather being chilly, they fell to the ground in a stupor as soon as tile air struck them their slit'jers had beenh disturbed by the dog. We were enjoying the - flii when, to our astonis-hment, several large hnried owls came flopping out One ga:te a d1ismlral hoot as though he had not seen dayIiglht in years, or wished to t'rightenu us away. .Becotn ilg uneasy For fear our (log could not return, Mr. Lee went to the entrance of t hle Cave, taking a pole and probing some six feet, lie made an abrupt angle to the right; the opening was barely sutlicieit for a colmmon sized man to enter; he groped his way until it be camue S dark that lie returned and revealed the terrible news that it opened out into what lhe b.lieved to be a large hall, and that lie could hear Charlie ruinuing about and whining, as though he was lost and could not find his way out. We sent to a Ieigh boring houtse and procured a lantern deternined to rescue Charlie at all hazards. With lantern in hand we both entered, compelled to crawl on ianis and knees for some distance before we could walk erect; the ci trance turned first to the right then to the left inl a zigzag form; finally we met Charlie, and his bark, as it echoed and rc-echoed, astonished us to such an extent that, we raised our lantern over our heads, which threw a bright light around we stood dumb for a moment-we were shocked and horri fied-the sneroundings were revealed; we were in a large room, ceiled on sideCs and overhiead( with rude clapi boards ; before us sat a large table wvith a mutilated pack of cardls ini the cenutre; heavy wvoodeu chairs around the table and a couice of large and rough shop made(1 kives on one corner. - As soon as as we could col lent our sensesS aind calmi our, staggered1 brain wve found we were ill a secret cave that had onice b'een ocenmpied by a band of outlaws, bit w ho or wh'len was t he question, in surveying the room, which wtas 1 8x 18, wve found( ill oe0 corner a black someithing , h ohlIinug thue light close ouir bilood wOa sle- it waos a large black iuani, hiis skini and Ilesh dry as t hose wihio in anien:ut. d,tys w ere gi venu pas sage over Sharoni.

Thus far there ' hav bel .but two formal. applicationo received at the department for the appointment of postmaster in the city of Charleston, They are signed by Messrs. W. M Thomas and T. B. Jonea, respectively. I was unable to ascertain who thehr eudorsers are or any of tWe insidt facts pertaining to their applicants as the rules of the doparktment prohibit the giving out of such information, From all that I am able to gather on the subject, there will probably be a lively contest over the post ofilco at Columbia. There are two applica tions on file for that office, one from W. II. Gibbes, and the other from John S. Leaphart, at present the dep. uty postmaster. Senator lamipton, while not pledging himself to any one, has informed the postmtister.geueral that he desires to be hleard in behalf of Mr. Gibbes before an appointment at Columbia is agreed upon. The appli. cation of Mr. Gibbes has the endorse inent of more than threethundred prominent eitizens of Columbia. Rep resentative-elect W. H. Perry is sup porting the application of Mr. Leap. hart. If the postmaster-general should decide to give the appointnient to the candidate having the greatest number of signatures to hiii; petition Mr. Leap. hart will probably be successful, as lie is endorsed by nearly five hundred patrons of the otilece. Messrs. Richard II. Cain and It. D. Reed have filed applications for the postnastership at Sumter. The com. mission of the incumbent expires on the 22d instant, and it is supposed that Representative Dargan will have the naming of the appointee. Thus far lie hits not intimated to the depart ment. whom he proposes to reconnend as neither of the above-naied appli cants has his endorsement. For thc postmastership at Aiken, Mr. James E. Crosland is lie only applicant who has made himself knowyn to the depart ment. The commission of the postmaster at Anderson expires on the 19th of May next. Mr. Robert V. Todd has the enidorsement of Representative Aiken and stands a very good chaice of sc. curing the prize. Mr. George W. Fant, who was formerly postmaster at Anderson, would like to preside ove the oflice agaian, but he ainunounces that lhe will not engige in any scratnble for the place. There is now a vacancy in the oflict at Newberry Courthouse, Postinaster Robert W. Boone having resigned, and no one has yet beon appointed it his stead. ltepresentative Aiken has recommended the appointment of Mrs Herbert for the position. More than a week ago the case was made tt i favor of Mrs. Ilerbert and placed1 upo)0 the desk of the postmaster-gener.al. 11 is probable that tier appoiantment wvil be senit to the Presidenit for approvat as sooni as the postmal:ster-genealt cat get away from the place-buniters aauf devote a' few minutes to the legitimate business of the department.
