Gentlemen-Owing to tho benefit received from
nv visit to the White Sulphur Springs last sum-
rncr, I have not yot had occasion to drink any OF
the water you sen. me; but having, on more than
one occasion, used as il came to this place In bot
ties, am Of opinion, if carefully put up, that it
undergoes little if any deterioration or change in It's
qualities or cffcts.
Your friend and servant,

"For the last twelve or thirteen years have re-
sided in the neighborhood of the White Sulphur
Springs and have had frequent opportunities OF
observing the beneficial effects of waters. when-re-
moved from the spring in bottles and barrels.
The aatiue properties Of this wdter depend upon
the SALINE INGREDIENTS which it contains In cor
roborntion of thr opinion, state that have known
individuals in this place use the water after 1t had
been kept in barrels for twelve months, and aior It
appeared to have parted with all or most OF its voa'
tile properties, and that it acted as promptly and
efficiently as when used at the spring.

The same gentleman, in the "Watchman OF the
South,n of the 23d July, remarks. "The Editor OF
this paper has used tho White Sulphur Water free
ly, in his family, and has no doubt Of its efficacy
being great in ordinary cases. Taking into con-
sderation the comforts of home, he would in ordl.
nary cases, prefer the of the water in casks to
a visit to the White Sulphur Springs. The
good effects Of The oater brought in casks TO RieA-
mond hare been rery manifest"
