Gen. SAMUEL HOPKINS, who commanded a division of the army in the war of 1812 with England, was a citizen of Henderson (see sketch under Hop- kins county). Rev. JAMES MCGREADY, a Presbyterian minister, who distin- guished himself in the Green river country in what is called " the great re- vival of 1800," closed his earthly career in this county.

HENRY COUNTY.

HENRY county, the 31st formed in the state, was taken entirely from Shelby county, in 1798, and called after the great orator Patrick Henry, the governor of Virginia in 1776 when Ken- tucky first became a part of Fincastle county, Va., and was after- wards organized as Kentucky county, Va. Oldham county in 1823, and Trimble in 1836, were formed partly from Henry county. It is situated in the north middle portion of the state, on the Kentucky river, and its northern line reaches to within 10 or 12 miles of the Ohio river. It is bounded . by Carroll, E. by the Kentucky river, which separates it for 20 miles from Owen county, s. by Shelby, and w. by Oldham. The surface of the county is generally undulating, in some portions quite hilly. South of the Little Kentucky creek, which empties into Ken- tucky river, the lands (called by many the sugar lands) are re- markably rich and fertile, producing the best hemp ; in the oak lands, fine tobacco is grown, and the beech lands yield corn abundantly. Tobacco and corn are the leading crops ; it is the 9th largest corn-producing county in the state.

Towns .- New Castle, the county seat, incorporated in 1817, is situated near Drennon's creek, 4 miles N. of Eminence, on the Louis- ville and Lexington railroad, and 26 miles from Frankfort ; pop- ulation in 1870, 670. Eminence, 4 miles s. of the county seat, and 40 miles from Louisville by railroad, (incorporated 1851,) is an enterprising and thriving town. Campbellsburg, (incorpor-

ated 1840, as Chiltonsville,) Pendleton, Sulphur, and Turner's, are growing stations on the Louisville and Cincinnati railroad ; Jer- icho, Smithfield, and Pleasureville, (incorporated 1842,) stations on the Louisville and Lexington railroad. Lockport, incorpor- ated in 1854, at lock and dam No. 2 on Kentucky river, 31 miles from its mouth, is the principal steamboat landing for Henry county. Hendersonville, 6 miles w. of New Castle, Port Royal, 10 miles N. E., Franklinton, 8 miles E. of New Castle, Springport, on Ky. river, 20 miles from its mouth, and Gistville, are small places.

The Kentucky River Bluffs, on the eastern borders of Henry county, are 376 feet above low water.

Lead Ore is reported to have been found between Marion and Springport.

Silver Mine .- In January, 1872, silver ore, containing 54 per cent. of sil- ver, was reported to be discovered on the farm of Dr. D. B. Reid, on the bank of the Kentucky river, in Henry county.

Mammoth Remains .- At Eminence, the summit level of the Louisville and Lexington railroad, in a shallow cut of that road, have been found, from time to time, numerous bones and teeth of the mammoth-in such a soft decayed condition that it is difficult if not impossible to remove or preserve them.

New Castle is about 110 feet, and Drennon creek 170 feet below Eminence. Springs .- In the immediate vicinity of Eminence, a saline chalybeate water flows, apparently from the bone bed spoken of above.

Drennon Springs, or Lick, on Drennon creek about a mile from its mouth at Kentucky river, was at one time, for a few years, one of the most popular watering-places in Kentucky. Since the destruction of the buildings by fire. a few years ago, it has lost its importance. The water is a strong sulphuretted saline, containing in various combinations salt, soda, magnesia and lime-act- ing not only on the skin but as a mild aperient, diuretic and diaphoretic.

The lick was discovered on July 7, 1773, by Jacob Drennon (from whom its name) and Matthew Bracken-in consequence of information purchased by presents, a few days before, from an old Delaware Indian at Big Bone lick, in Boone county.

HENRY COUNTY.

Hon. ZACH. F. SMITH, of Eminence, Ky., was born in Henry county, 1807; finished his education at Bacon College, Harrodsburg; 1852, married Miss Sue, daughter of W. S. Helm, of Shelby co., and settled down to agricultural pursuits ; 1860, sold his farm, intending to remove South, but was prevented by the War; for a number of years, was the teacher and elder of the Chris- tian Church in New Castle, and from 1857, was president and secretary of the Kentucky Christian Education Society, of which he was one of the found- ers-an institution which, with an endowment of only $50,000, sustained and educated at college, during his presidency, over 100 young men, nearly all now in the ministry or engaged in teaching. As a member of the board of curators of Kentucky University he has been very active and very useful. But in August, 1867, was opened wide a field of operations just suited to his taste and experience ; he was elected, by probably the largest majority ever given by the people of Kentucky for that office, Superintendent of Public Instruction. Of the eminent men who have championed the cause of public education in the state, no one has more clearly apprehended its vast and vital importance, and the comprehensiveness of its universal relations. Real- izing that to increase the facilities for public education, the essential and in- dispensable need was an enlarged financial basis, he applied to the legislature to increase the school tax from 5 eents to 20 cents on the $100-to be submitted for ratification to a vote of the people. Such active and persistent opposition was developed as delayed the passage of the bill until the second session ; but the efforts of Mr. Smith and the friends of the cause succeeded at last. The canvass before the people, into which he threw his whole strength, was marked by such energy and practical wisdom as never fails of success-re- sulting in a majority for the law of 24,679 in a total vote of 133,493.

The full fruits of Mr. Smith's reform policy-as set forth in his special report to the legislature, and embodied in a bill for the organization, endowment, and management of the common schools-were defeated for the time. Some of its important features were adopted ; others then rejected, have already been engrafted upon the law ; the leaven is working still. Revolutions some- times move slowly ; a tremendous impetus to the cause of publie education was given by the popular vote of 1869-it was not to be expected that the whole work of improvement could be wrought at once. He struck for : 1. Higher qualifications and better compensation for county commissioners ; 2. A trained corps of professional teachers in our home population ; 3. Educational literature, a journal, district libraries, popular lectures, etc. ; 4. Graded and high schools in the cities and towns ; 5. Uniform text-books; 6. Reconstruc- tion of district organization, and enlisting more competent trustees; 7. In- greased importance to the Department of Education, as among the other State Departments; 8. The right of country districts to vote special taxation for increased school terms, permanent buildings, etc. Patience hath her perfect work in this, also. Mr. Smith is a practical philosopher; and while, in the changes of the day, this work was removed from his hands, can watch with proud satisfaction how other able men are developing and engrafting upon the state his noble poliey. His friends point with thankful pride to the following results of his four years' administration : 1. The extension of the school ses- sions to five months, theretofore only three months; 2. Monthly wages of teachers doubled, and as a whole these wages were tripled; 3. Number of school districts increased ; 4. Of schools taught, of census pupil children, and of attendance at school, the increase was twenty per cent .- and in the amount and quality of education given, and in the active interest created in behalf of the public schools, the increase exceeded one hundred per cent. For the first time in Kentucky, institutes improvised for the normal instruction of teachers were put in operation; the standard of qualifications of teachers was advanced, and officials and the people were awakened to new life and activity on the subject.

But the work which will most pointedly and permanently identify Mr. Smith's great energy and enterprise with an important portion of Kentucky, developing the resources and largely increasing the prosperity of that portion, is the Cumberland and Ohio railroad-now under contract and being steadily built from Eminence. on the Louisville and Frankfort railroad, through Shelby, Spencer, Nelson, Washington, Marion, Taylor, Green, Barren, and Allen

HENRY COUNTY.

counties. It contemplates a trunk railroad of some 425 miles, through central Kentucky and Tennessee-with northern termini at Louisville and Cincin- nati, and southern termini at Chattanooga and Nashville. Mr. Smith, its chief projector and its president, secured, before putting the line under con- tract, county and other subscriptions in Kentucky amounting to $3,600,000, besides over $1,000,000 for its extension into Tennessee. The wonderful energy which has thus far (Jan., 1873) succeeded against supposed conflicting interests. and a vast amount of prejudice, deserves to achieve the early com- pletion and extension of this magnificent enterprise.

PATRICK HENRY, from whom this county derives its name, was one of the great lights of the revolution, and an extended sketch of his life belongs more properly to the history of the American republic. He was born in Hanover county, Vir- ginia, on the 29th of May, 1736, and his early years gave no promise of the dis- tinction which he acquired in subsequent life. His education was limited, em- bracing the common English branches, with a smattering of Latin, and a pretty good knowledge of mathematics, for which he manifested some degree of fond- ness. He was married at the early age of eighteen, and engaged successively, but most unsuccessfully, in the mercantile. agricultural, and again in the mer- cantile business. When his family had been so reduced in circumstances, as to be in want of even the necessaries of life, he turned his attention to the law, and after six weeks' study, obtained license to practice. It was then, and not till then, that his star arose and took position among the bright galaxy of the day. His genius first displayed itself in the contest between the clergy and the people of Virginia, in an effort of popular eloquence, to which Mr. Wirt has given im- mortality. His second brilliant display was before a committee of the house of burgesses, on a contested election case-and here the successive bursts of elo- quence in defence of the right of suffrage, from a man so very plain and hum- ble in his appearance, struck the committee with astonishment. In 1765, he was elected a member of the house of burgesses, and prepared and was instrumental in passing through that body, a series of resolutions against the stamp act, and the scheme of taxing America by the British parliament. It was in the midst of the debate which arose on these resolutions, that Mr. Henry exclaimed : " Cæsar had his Brutus, Charles the First his Cromwell, and George the Third "-" Trea- son !" cried the speaker-" Treason ! treason !" echoed from every part of the house. Henry faltered not for an instant ; but taking a loftier attitude, and fix- ing on the speaker an eye of fire, he finished his sentence with the firmest empha- sis-" may profit by their example. If this be treason, make the most of it." From this period, Mr. Henry became the idol of the people of Virginia, and his influence was felt throughout the continent, as one of the great champions of civil liberty.

He continued a member of the house of burgesses till the commencement of the revolution-was one of the standing committee of correspondence, and a member of the Virginia delegation in the first general Congress which met in Philadelphia in September, 1774. He acted a short time in a military capacity, but felt that his influence in civil life was more important to his country. Re- signing his military command, he was chosen first governor of the common- wealth of Virginia, and successively elected to that office while eligible. In 1786, he resigned the office of governor. He subsequently declined the appoint- ment of the legislature as a member of the convention which framed the consti- tution of the United States ; but was a member of the Virginia convention which assembled to ratify that instrument, and, as is generally known, arrayed all his great powers of eloquence against its ratification. He became afterwards, how- ever, a firm friend of the constitution, and of the federal system of government established by that instrument. In 1791, he retired from public life-in 1794 from the bar, and on the 6th of June, 1797, he closed his brilliant and eventful career on earth, leaving a large family in affluent circumstances.

Patrick Henry was a natural orator of the highest order, combining imagina- tion, acuteness, dexterity and ingenuity, with the most forcible action and extra- ordinary powers of utterance. As a statesman, he was bold and sagacious, and his name is brilliantly and lastingly connected with those great events which re- sulted in the emancipation of his country.

HOPKINS COUNTY.

HOPKINS county, the 49th in order, was formed in 1806, out of part of Henderson county, and named after Gen. Samuel Hop- kins. In 1857, before part of its territory was taken to fornr Webster county, it was 40 miles in length and 26 in breadth. About one-eighth of it was in cultivation, and there were over 100,000 acres of superior bituminous and cannel coal. It is in the western part of the state, and bounded N. by Webster county, E. by Pond river, which separates it from McLean and Muhlen- burg, s. by Christian, and w. by Caldwell and Webster counties. Green river is navigable for small steamers at all seasons, Pond and Tradewater rivers for small crafts and rafts in the winter and spring. The county has three classes of land-ridge, or hill land ; bottom, or black flat land ; and rolling lands, with soil mainly a freestone, based upon reddish-yellow clay foundation. Timber abounds, of the finest quality and greatest variety.

HOPKINS COUNTY.

The Iron Ores, within 1} miles all around Providence, were analyzed by Prof. Robert Peter in 1856, and found to contain some as low as 26.845 and one as high as 64.266 per cent. of iron. Iron ore, of fine quality, is found over a large portion of both Hopkins and Webster counties.

Coal .- Hopkins county is rich in this mineral beyond computation, her provision of coal (before Webster was taken off) exceeding that of any county in the western basin. Ten veins of coal, generally well developed, extend over nearly the whole county, in some openings S feet thick, and all the out- crops are of easy access. The town of Providence (now in Webster county) is at the top of a hill, around which 3 veins of eoal, each 5 to 6 feet thick, are exposed, in scareely 125 feet of measures. The Henderson and Nashville railroad runs between numerous coal banks ; in the s. E. portion of the county all the creeks-Clear, Lamb, Riehland, Stewart, Caney, and Pond, and their tributaries-seem to run purposely to expose thick eoal banks; Dozier's mountain, Buffalo mountain, Wrighit's ridge, Bear Wallow, from base to top, look like a suecession of coal, iron, and limestone strata. The coal from one bank contained as little as .820 and from another as high as 2.796 per eent. of sulphur.

Baron Frederic Wm. Augustus Steuben, the distinguished (Prussian) inspector- general of the Revolutionary army, shortly after the elose of the war for in- dependence, visited Kentucky and located some land. Tradition says that he was wounded by the Indians at or near a liek in Hopkins eounty, called (from that cireumstanee) Steuben's Liek. He died in Utiea, New York, Nov. 28, 1794, and a copy of his will was sent to Kentucky, and on file in the court of appeals, but destroyed by fire when the papers of that offiee were burned. Among its provisions was a bequest to Capt. Meriwether Lewis, his former aid-de-eamp, of one of his swords, and a legaey in money of perhaps $2,000- for the reason that Lewis' salary of $500, as secretary to President Jefferson, was insufficient to support him in the style his position demanded. There was also a legacy of perhaps $2,000 each to certain of his servants-on con- dition that at his death they should lay him out in his military eloak, and at the expiration of a designated time bury his body in a secret place which he had pointed out to them, and forever keep the place concealed; any dis- closure of this secret to forfeit the legacy. In attempting to remove his re- mains, a few years ago; they were found to be petrified.
