Waite Sulphur .Spriags, Vrginia.-
The great and growing celebrity Of
these Springs--the valuable and sue.
cessful qualities Of the waters, attract
an immense concoursc, not only from
New York. but from the North and
East. II Is supposed that three thou
sand ladies and gentlemen were at the
White Sulphur last season, and as great
Improvements and accommodation are
IN progress, il is believed that the num-
Der will be considerably augmented
next GUNNER. Upwards of 900 were
from New York. Arrangements are
about making TO have dramatic repre-
sensations, concerts and balls during
the season. and the entire energies Of
the proprietors. including a vast expen.
diture Of money 10 make il . delight
ful summer retreat, not only for the in j.
valid, but the healthy. and those who
complain Of debility-of chronic COM
plants, &c. will find the pure air of the
mountains and the waters, . powerful
restorative.
Early in July is the time to 90, and
we notice il thus early in order that
attention should be directed towards
the Virginia Springs by those who wish
variety and are not yet determined what
course TO take. We shall have occa.
sion again to revert TO these Springs,
and more at length in connection with
the valuable quality Of their waters.
