of the purchase of Judge Jett and Mr. Scott:
We can only wonder, thnt capitalists have

immense success, nnd in its palmy days, wns
one of tlie most famous, fashionable and
popular watering places in the South. It
was a favorite resort with Henry Clay and
the old citizens in the community about it,
still tell with much pleasure and pride of
the time when Mr. Clay nnd his distinguished
friends used to frequent its halls. Its
many delights nnd advantages in former
years, attracted wealthy, fashionable and
arihtociatic people, ny scores, iromaii parts

managed, as it will be, it is destined to
soon become one ol the most popular resorts
