In calling The attention of the public TO these
Springs, as a watering place, the subscriber takes
occasion to remark, that they are no discovery
although uni nown to the distant public until the
last two years. For many wears they lave never
failed TO get more visitors from the SURROUNDING
country thin the Improvements could comfortably
accommodate, who VIII readily testify 10 Their me
diclnal virtues
Since last season. several large and comfortable
framed cabins have been erected, which, added to the
large and ootnmodious Hotel and Cabins built pre-
yions that time will enable me 10 entertain larger
company with more comfort.
The water has been analysed, and found TO con-
tain the essential Ingredients sulphur, soda lin an
unusual proportion) and magnesia; and the subscfI-
Der can say with the fullest confidence, that if certi-
caics of required they can be obtained OF
many individuals, whose experience of their virtues
enable them TO say that they are unsurpassed by
any water in Virginia for most of the diseases com
mon 10 our cmate-In cases of confirmed dyspepsia,
or less deranged condition of the stomach aud
bowels, in pulmonary or liver diseases, more par
ticulary the attcrn all diseases OF general debility
whateyer-and peculiarly fer delicate females and
children, these waters will be found possessed OF
remedial virtues of certainly rare efficacy. For this
fact the highest authority among the medical faculty
