GLENN SPRINGS. ITS PAST AND PKKSKNT?ITS LOCATION, TRADITIONS AND III8TORY. To the Journal of Commerce : Those of your readers who are beginning to cast about for some place ol rest and shelter during the hot mouths which are approaching, will bo pleased to know that this celebrated watering place is now open for the seaaou. Glenu Springs is situated on a high ridgo, dividing the Fair Forrest and North Tiger Rivers, ninety miles rather northwest of Columbia, within five miles of the Spartanburg and Columbia Union Railroad, aud twelve miles south of the town of Spartanburg. It is accessible more conveniently by hack from Spartanburg C. II., by a pleasant and picturesque drive ol less than two hours. Professor Tourney, in his geographical survey of the State, speaking of this route, says: Pctwceu Spartauburg and Glcuu Spriugs the Fair Forrest has scooped out a channel iu the Gneiss rock, at the foot of a hill, forming a wild and picturesque little view.? Gneiss i? also well exposed at the quiet and pretty spot called Cedar Springs, uow an asylum for the dumb, deaf and blind, where a bold spring of pure water issues from a fissure in the rock. Glenn Springs is classed by Profcsscr Walter, in his work on mineral springs, among the Sulphur Springs. Put the analysis by Dr. C. U. Shophcrd, of the Charleston College, shows it to contain besides sulphuretted hydrogen, sulphato of magnesia, carbonate of lime, and sulphate oflinio, and is, therefore, both alkuliuc and saline, and hence the very large class of diseases which it benefits and cures. Indeed, there is scarcely an ailment, except well developed tubueular consumption, and that in the last stages, which it docs rfot benefit. T-.wJ:*: ih.t i i - - - i iuuihuu oiijf.i tu.iL in iiiu } car i <u tf ovir a century ago, when the wild deer, ami other denizens of the forest, were plentiful in the District of Spartanburg, old hunters observed trails converging from all points of the compass to a certain marshy cove at the base of a hill, where this celebrated spring is now situated. To this marsh these wild animals were in the habit, in the spring time and summer, of resorting, to drink the water whieh run from it, aud many an antlered buck has lost his life in caring for his health. After the time of the deer and the buffalo, the cattle of the early settlers had the same resort, and when lost from distant sections, they were almost always found at what was then called the "powder marsh." The early settlers observing this fact, scooped out holes in the maish for the water to fill up, and used them as bathing places for their children and, indeed, all who had any eruptive disease ; and for years and years it was regarded as a sovcrcigu remedy for compluiuts of this character. An old gentleman, of some sixty years or more, now living in this vicinity, informed me that when a child he was bathed in a little puddle below the spring, for some eruption, ho said the itch, which it effectually cared. At that early age the spring was not found, and the water was only used for bathing purposes. Subsequently, however, the spring was discovered, and the people began to imitate the example of their cattle, and commenced drinking the water, whieh they found, if . possible, more effieaeioun, Umu l>?v\iiug ~ it. It is said that Chancellor David Johnson, many years ago, bought the tract of land upon which the spring is located, giving for it an old horse, and afterwards sold it fur a profit of four hundred dollars-a good large ^ profit, but not equal to fifteen thousand dollars, whieh it. subsequently brought. About 1SJ?, after the spring had attained something more than a local notoriety, 31 r. John 15. (1U iiu, of Uuiou County, while on a visit to his brother-in-law, Mr. Austin Spands, who then owned the property, hearing of its wonderful cures, bought an interest in it, and moved up for the benefit of the health of bis wife. They wcro child less and had been for year*, but after one season, Mrs. Glenn's health improved most rapidly, and she became the mother of a bouncing boy, who still lives in the neighborhood, a standing monument of the virtue of (.Slenn Spring water. After this, the fame of the spring extended far and near, and a great many persons resorted to it for their health. Cabins were built all over the place, and yet there was not room enough to accommodate the people. Mr. Glenn was unable to build, and he was induced to sell out to a company of gentlemen, consisting of Dr. Morris Moore, Dr. Winnsuiith, Dr. A. 11. Irvine, Dr. Vanlew, Dr. Thorno, Davis Caldwell, Ilobert Mooreman, Geo. Ashford, Knight Sims, Win. IVanot, Morgan Houston, Sauil. Brown, J. II Glenn, and some others, whom my informant does not now remember. These gentlemen obtained a charter from the Legislature, and in the year 18*18 built the present hotel and eight cottages in the lawn. The main hotly of the house is sixty feet square, three stories and a half high, with three wings filly feet each, two stories and a mill nign. i no rooms arc ample amJ well arranged. There is a fifty feet dining hall room and parlor, besides billiard room, card room, reading rooms and reception room, and there are six rooms in each of the eight cottages. Upon the completion of the hotel, there was a grand opening, and at once it became the fashionable resort of the State. Many resorted to it for pleasure, but uiany more for their health. Kvcn committees of the Legislature, made it a place of meeting in the interval, and the celebrated acts of the Legislature of 1830 and 1840, defining the duties and liabilities of the district officers, not keounty, when peculation and fraud were unknown, were drafted here, and here many of the chancellors drafted their most important decrees. Under the management, however, of this company of distinguished gentlemen, it did not nrovo a financial success and in a fexv years it became the property of Mr. John (J. Zimmerman, who managed it successfully and satisfactorily for some teu years, and j j j m m U > * < - ?? ??? Q ?. 1 nd During this time Dr. M. Liborde, of the South Carolina College, says of it: '-One of the best watering places in the Southern country is situated in Spartanburg District | ?I mean (ilenn Springs. This has been | a place of great resort for the people of the t State, and has acquired a well merited celebrity. Many of the most distinguished gentlemen of South Carolina who have spent s seasons at the Virginia Springs and Sara to I fi ga. have pronounced it fully equal to these 1st world renowned places. I w i 11 ii i i T TIT?? 1*1- ii ?i Id 1853 Mr. Zimmerman sold it to tho ltevs. Mr Arthur and McColough, for the purpose of opening a feuialo college, but iu this they did not succeed according to tb> ir anticipations. Besides, the people clamored for it as a resort for health, aud it was , again opened to the public by Mr. J. C. Januey, of Columbia, aud others, until the war. After tho war it was opcucd by tho Miss Fowler, and is now owned and open to the public by Dr. J. W. Simpson aud J. Wistar Siiupson, of Laurens, who moved to it for the benefit of their health. These gcntlouicu arc improving and fitting up the house and grounds, aud hope to make it, as iu auti-belluui days, a place whero tho good people of tho Statu can uiect together during the summer months and talk ovor their troubles of the past, their dolivcrcuco Irom carpet baggq? and corruption, aud their bright aud glorious prospects for the future, under Hampton, honesty and houic rule. 80 mote it be. Invalid. THE LATE MISSISSIPPI TRAGEDY. There has been rarely heard a more horrible and mournful story of the savagcDess and wickedness of lynch law than that of the lute murderous affair at Do Kulb, Kemper County, Mississippi. Do Kalb is an unsightly little hamlet in Kemper County, a majority of the inhabitants being colored men, and which, after reconstruction, was controlled by a small clique of native white men, their leader being Judge Chisolm, wh had been a Judge of Probate uuder the Confederacy, and when the civil government was re-established, obtained the office of Sheriff, in which positiau he virtually ruled the county for seven years, until the political revolution of 1S75. His Republican local administration was intensely unpopular.? Mr. E. V. Smalley, one of the New York Tribune a correspondents, says that taxes were enormously high, and that over 100,000 acres of land were sold for taxes, and are still held by the .State, no purchasers havingbcen found. Of course, Judge Chisolm had cncuiic", and their report was that while he was p or when he went into office, he left it worth 950,000. Some years airo there was ill-fmdiiu? hn. twecu Chisolui and one John W. Gully, an active Democrat ot' the county. Xo personal encounter, however, grew out of it. A partisan of the Judge, Benjamin Hush, had quarreled with Gully years ago about a business matter, rnd in 187J a street fight took place in De Kalb, in which Samuel Gully, a brother of John \V., was killed, and Kush was severely wounded. About the same time, a man named Gilmer, another of Cliisoltil's adherents, who kept a store at Seooba, shot and killed a Democrat named Dawson, who, it is alleged, entered his store for the avowed purpose of killing Gilmer. The same year Kush was shot and severely wounded by some person lurking behind a church in De Kalb. As a result of the campaign in 1875, Judge Chisolui and his friends lost their offices. In 187(5 the Judge ran for Congress and was defeated. The campaign was a heated one and much violence was developed. In Deccuibcr last an attempt was made to assassinate John W. Gully. Suspicion fell upon Kush, who soon after left the State, and has not been seen in Kemper county siucc. On the 2tith .ult., John W. Gully was assassinate*) by some person hiding by the roadside, who robbed him of his boots and money. It was believed that Kush had returned, but as no trace of hiui could be found a story was started, which is said to originated with two colored men, that Chisolui and Gilmer were accessories to the crime. On Sunday the 2Jlth of April, Judge Chisolui, Gilmer, one llosciibauui, a friend of Gilmer, and several others, all of whom were Republicans, were arrested on warrants sworn out by various parties, but for what particular offense is not stated.? They were placed in jail, as a uiob threatened their lives, The young daughter of Judge Chisolm nobly clung to her father, and, with her brother, a lad of twelve years, was imprisoned with him. She returned home, and secreting ammunition about her person carried it to her father, who somehow had become possessed of a gun. A short time after, Gilmer, in attempting to escape, was shot down and instantly killed. The mob then began firing through the grating of the jail, inflicting mortal wounds upon Judge Chisolm and his daughter, and killing outright the little son of the Judge, who was endeavoring to shield his father. Judge Chisolm and his hcroical daughter have since died, the latter of gangrene of the arm. (Jtimer is spoken of as an unprincipled man and something of a desperado. Hut the Chisolms were people of refinement and some culture. The father is said to have served bravely in the Confederate army. There is no proof whatever that he killed (jully, nor would such a man be likely to rob an enemy of his boots and money. Whether he was guilty or not is no exculpation of the murderers of himself and family. A more atrocious crime is not recorded in the annals of lynch law. The attempt, however, to inako it out entirely a political quarrel, or, what is more ridiculous still, to pretend that is was a result of disaffection to the Union, conld only be suggested by the ultra partisanship which seeks to make capital for its own purposes out of every act of disorder and violence which occurs in the Southern States, without regard to the larger number which occur in other sections. The leading orirans of Southern sentim. ni have emphatically condemned the Do Kalb butchery, the New Orleans J'icui/une, the Democrat, and other journals looking upon it as casting a shadow over Southern society. In this they arc no doubt right, and it behooves the people of Mississippi to strengthen the hands of the executive and judicial authorities of the State in meting out the utmost penalties of the law to the perpctra tors of this great crime.?Jiultimore Sun. A curious experiment with the magnet was recently tried in fjondon. A boy had broken a needle in tho calf of his leg, and Wtfuiu ?ti>o-?vi?ig to inatrumonl? it was decided to try the effect of a powerful magnet in withdrawing tho steel. After a number of exp :rinieut.s in different positions the needle was drawn near the surface on lie opposite side of the leg from which it mtcred and was easily withdrawn.

A number of' other prominent citizens got round the edge of the mule and took hold. 'Now, boys, we'll lift liiui up ; heare to,' and they made a mighty effort to put him on his pins. The mule rose like an insurrection of the Louisiana blacks and when he let his hind leg out it put Long Brown slap up against the back steps of the International Hotel. Then ittried to turn {} handspring and the sole of his lore hoof fouuda I hiding place in tho diaphragm of Mageey" ami his gulp of dissatisfaction made the boys along the street laugh with delight. The aim of the parties who had the mule was now to hold him down. He was changed from a passive to an aggressive uiule in a twinkling. Like the sea in a calm it was placid and dormant, but the breath of the tempest made it aggressive and all-devouring. The sweep of its loug hind leg commanded tho respect of all who saw it. Tho strokes of its hoof fell on the c.irt like the shock of the ocean's billows upon the,rocks; the cart began to succumb, a#d dissolved into kindling wood aud toothpicks. The harness began to fly, and one after another the fragments went flying. There was good stock in that mu'c, but the stockholders began to drop it like so much llye Patch or Golden (Jharriot. The mule flung off it3 parasites, and rising with a sucrt, shot off for the hills.

Tiie Xicmtft Kack Not Dying Out.? Douglas Fox is an intelligent colored citizen of the suburbs of Ridgcway, a deacon iu the llaptist Church, a carpenter and a farmer, and was ouo of the managers of election at Ridgcway box who voted for Hampton and Reform last November. A few days since. Douglas Fox came into Hidgcway wearing a rather lugubrious cast of features, and announced that the evening before Hayes and Hampton had called at his house, and that he had not the means to entertain these distinguished strangers in a manner suited to their rank. Surprise being expressed at the vagaries of these dignitaries in thus travelling incog., he explained that his visitors ne.e l.?utv pM, uolrthat they have never resided any vuorc else~ltnnrzrt house. In other words, his wife had proson: ted him with twins. He said he had a full I wardrobe for one, but that this thing of twins had up-et all his calculations, and be 1 was then purchasing an outfit for the other. The most interesting feature of this eir, cumstnucc is that six years ago Douglas was ! presented by his wife with triplets, all boys, I two of whom are still living. Four years j ago she gave birth to a daughter, and two years ago to a son. Seven children at four i births is rather crowding things. Douglas believes that there is magic iu a name, and in calling his children in honor ol the two leading men of America he hopes he has giv en them n good send-off in life. Wo are informed that Douglas has been married thirteen years and has eleven children.--UVhmsbnro' iWicx, 5t/i instant. .?. - ?

These parties arc much elated at this determination on the pari of the Executive,' and say that though the withdrawal of the troops ana mo interference ot the (Joinmissioti were a mistake, they have still a chance to maintain the organization of the Republican party.
