Viec Of these Springs Watering Place.
II is no longer question whether this place will
be fashionable summer resort for those whose
lives bound up in the city during nine months Of
the year; that doubt has already been solved the
only question there can possibly be s, whether it is
not very to become the most desirable retreat
in the United States. Apart from the inducements
which it presents to those who suffering under
variety OF diseases, in the incompatible qualities of
its mineral waters, it affords the most picturesque
views OF natural scenery, and is situated in COOL
healthy, and delightful section of the country II is
well known that the Newark river flows through
this portion of the State, on whose banks repose in
sacred remembrance of the records of revolutionary
valor and suffering and whose woods and glens are
the abode OF the romance Of earlier days. Wander
ing leisurey over hill and dale, you may visit many
spots OF thrilling interest described In Stones life of
Brant, and tread the ground trod by the noble
chiettain and his savage warriors.
Leaving the cars at Paatine Bridge, the route to
this place leads distance of about eight miles to the
southwark, road gradual and easy in its ascent,
from which the traveller may look down upon beau
ful villages here and there decking the landscape,
or raising his eye, may rest it in pleasant contem
plation upon the hills beyond, where the pretty cot
tage peeps out coquettshly from behind Its veil of
trees and shrubbcry and smiles upon his visit while
on all sides the delightful fragrance of ripening
fields of grass and grain, and the gentlest breeze
waited fresh from the green leaves, impart joyous
exhileration to the whole system. Driving onward,

wings, appearing ready 10 take its flight from the
emlnence on which 1t stands suddenly breaks upon
the sight. Here the kindest host, and the readiest
attention is waiting for you. You meet with no
scoding landlord, and stupid servants, who tear the
baggage from your hands, and dash II into your
face or mistake your toes for pair of stairs, but
every thing works by the regular machinery which
resides in the heads and hearts of Landon and
Gardner, well known as the proprietors of other
