DOWN IN TENNESSEE. 
All the principal hunting aud fishing 
grounds in Tennessee are easily accessi- 
ble from any of the points described as 
being on the lines of the several rail- 
roads herein mentioned: 
On the East Tennessse, Virginia & Ceorgia 
Railroad.— This line runs through a moun- 
tainous portion of the State, and affords easy 
access to some of the best hunting and fish- 
ing grounds in Tennessee. In the mountains 
are deer, an occasional bear and panther, wild 
turkeys, and ruffed grouse. In the cultivated 
fields aud along the hedge-rows, are an abun- 
dance of quail ; in the woods and thickets are 
plenty of rabbits and fox and gray squirrels, 
and wild fowl are numerous in season, in most 
of the lagoons and rivers. Woodcock are of- 
the flushed in the marshes and swamps. The 
fishing, as a general thing, does not amount 
to much. In some of the mountain streams 
in Johnson, Sullivan, Carter, Washington, 
Greene, Grainger, Hawkins, and a few other 
counties bordering on the Cumberland Range, 
are speckled trout, but most of the waters 
contain only the usual Southern varieties of 
fish—black bass, pike, perch, cat-fish, &c. 
The best points along the route are easily 
reached by stopping at Union, Philadelphia, 
Jonesboro’, Midway, Rogersville, Greenville, 
Russelville, Mossy Creek, New Market, 
Athens, Cleveland, Ottewah, Strawberry 
Plains, Louden, and Tyner’s. The country 
around Union, in Sullivan county, is high and
