BY w. MI. TOLBERT 4. co.

Having heen solicited by the united request oil
the State Rights and Democratic parties of Mssis-
spi and especially Of this section of the state, we
have been prevailed upon to publish weakly new
spapsr, to support that creed ofpohtics, which the
name we have assumed demonstrates. Firmly pre-
suaded that the liberties. prosperity, happiness and
indepedencs Of south, are deeply involved m these
momentons questions, now agitated throughout the
Union. The period IS at hand, when Il oehooVes

Doctors Fowlkes Il Borland,
GeRtIemen:-Y Yours of the 4th inst was handed
me on the 9Th, and embrace the first opportunity
of attending to its contents The White Creek
Springs, in this vicinity have long been celebrated
for their medicinal qualities, and have been, annu-
ally, the resort of persons in had health. The very
limited means of accommodating visiters at the
place, has however; prevented general resort, and
driven hundreds to other places, who would gladly
have attended White Creek Springs. Chronic disea-
ses of almost every description, within the reach
OF remedies, have been in part or wholly, removed
by them. The very great variety in the qualities of
the water Of the Springs at the spot, and in the inn
mediate neighborhood, gives this place very deci-
ded advantage most Watering Places. Their
situation, in broken healthy part of the country,
and only eieUeR miles from Nashville, are croum-
stances of much Importance. AS before observed,
they have been beneficial to PERSONS in almost eve
ry variety of chronic diseases but in those o. the
stomach and bowels, the skin and the gladular sys.
tenn, their beneficial effect is very decided.
With ample mean of accommodation, have no
doubt, that they would deserve such rank. At
ter what have said, need hardly state, that these
waters exert a very beneficial influence over the
mercuTial disease; and act very decidedly in restor
ing the broken up constitutions Of Southern vaetu-
dinarians, who have been handled with equal sever
ity by disease aud doctor.
Hoping and beIieving, Gentlemen, that your en-
lerprve will result in great and abiding benefit TO
yourselves and the public.
remain yours, very respectfully,

that water together with two other sulphuretted
tiers, and marked my results on three different papers,
1.-The two mentioned waters were given to me by
two members of our Legislature, and during the
time, was transcribing and calculating these re-
suits, mislaid the notes which / had kept OF the
White Creek waIer--I could find il no where: so
was obliged to recommence. When, last week, I
had finished the alysis, used, for the calculations
the same book had used before and lo-and see !!
found my notes in that book recollected now,
that / had put them in place which wished to
read again | found that my second analysis coin
cided with the first; except that small quantity Of
the sulphuretted hydrogen gas had dissipated, SO
that il had some good effect. So here, the result of
my labor.
100 fluid ounces the water of White Creek Springs
contain
sulphuretted hydrogen gas, Sl,25 cubic inches
Carbonic acid gas, 1922 &c
These 100 fued ounces, contain 80 grains of solid

use Of the water, should again become deceased.
