As soon as the cold weather was over and the spring fairly 0Hiicu, the Mill and other tiling newssary were inovetl t the plaiv, and the work of violating the revenue laws vvu resinned. Several "rtin" were made, and Jones bepui to coiifrratnlate himself that he had at last found a rcfujfe beyond th pryinj; eyes of the govern rut-tit iiirtlins, wherche i-ould pursue hi avocation in ihim'. Hut ula.! how little we know even of the im-nii-diate future, and how orten do the very steps which the tranrrcsor take to Insure concealment and salety, lead to his swift mid certain destruction !

The alarm was riven through the sparsely sct ths.1 iieighlK)ihool. A small number ol men gathered, and accompanied bv Mr. Jones and her son. n youth ten or twelve year of age, they starbnl up the gorge in the direction of the stillhoue. , On reaching the buildiog they found the door closed ami l:iteiu-d, and" no sign of Jones or any one else could be seen. Mr. J. called t fie name of her husltaud several time; no response, however, came back to relieve In r anxiety. Hut upon attempting to force an entrance they were gn-eti-d with thoe jsi-uliar iio-e of warning which the ear of the Ka.t Tennesxr mountaineer never fails to n-cognize. The door w as at once broken down, and a sinht met them that caused aH to start w ith fright and horror. The form of the distiller lay upon the floor, with eyes starting from their sockets-, the feature:- horribly distorted, and body swollen to twice its uual proportion, while the whole interior of the buildinjr was alive w ith rattlesnakes, some in coil and ready for battle, but the larger proportion stupid and inert as though they had Ix-eti iinbibinjr litM-rally of the illicit fruit of the still.
