Washington lies in the Southwestern portion of the State, the Clinch mountains, which sep- arate it from Russell, forming the northern and the Tennessee line the southern boundary, with Smyth and Grayson counties on the east, and Scott on the west. The county was formed in 1776 from Fincastle. It is watered by the three branches of the Holston river, which afford a variety of excellent fresh-water fish. The Norfolk and Western Railroad extends through the middle part. The character of the country is undulating, the soil fertile and pro- ductive, abounding in the spontaneous growth of blue grass, and well adapted to the cul- tivation of clover and other grasses. Fruits of various kinds grow to perfection. Abun- dant crops of corn, wheat. rye, oats, tobacco, hemp, &c., are raised annually.


The raising of improved breeds of horses, cattle and sheep is extensively carried on in many parts of the county. Inexhaustible beds of gypsum. (plaster) and salt are found on the north fork of the Holston, and have been profitably worked for many years.


Some of the finest mineral waters to be had anywhere are located in this county. There are valuable springs whose waters are sul- phur, chalybeate and alum. This county is celebrated for the number and high order of its institutions of learning.


Courts


The Circuit Court meets at the Courthouse the fourth Monday in January, March, May, September and November.
