fire place, besides the old Batn. The water is in
riched with the marine salts, and all those valuable in
gredients whereby it is constituted a light and pure
chalybeate, which instantly pervades the ra ft remote
recesses of the human frame, warms and invigorates the
relaxed conftitution,reftores the weakened fibres to their
due tone and ebfticity, removes every obflruQjon to

becomes thereby adapted to most cold, chronical dis
orders, lowness of spirits, weak digestions and nervous
complaints.

sons of sobriety and property. The Terms will be
