Mineral Springs.-lt is quite remarkable that
there should have been recently discovered. both

the properties of the celebrated waters of Saratoga
Both were discovered in boring a considerable
dep'h for fresh water. That a, New York was
discovered but few days since in Jacob street, at
depth of abou, $50 feet. The supply of water is
abundant, and is pronounced by some preferable to
the Saratogs water. Several thousand people Wis
tied The Spring on Monday and Tuesday last, and
on Wednesday notice given that visitors would

The following description of the water is given by

her officers and men by ysLiow fsper, and

who mad repaired on board for the pur
pose of recommending such steps as
circumstances might seem best to point
out, on bis return to Norfolk, express
ed himself in the strongest terms of ad-
niration and gratitude in behalf of him
self and his government, at the humane
and gentle manly conduct of Col. Ora

to land the sick ofths Gree mot on
