AS Intimately connected with the subject
upon which we have been writing for the
las, few weeks, we will make remark or
two, in regard to springs, mineral waters.
&c. Iron is a mcaI, So generally d1,,scl
Throughout the mineral kingdom, that per
haps VIC ought 10 be more surprised from its
absence, than at it presence, in the ordina-
ry waters of this country. Mt that water
possesses the property OF combining with
pare iron, for this is iiot the case, much Of
the Iron found in this country exists in the
form Of The sa'ph1fn, which has yell w,
shining n,:;alic appaaran e, and is often
ml<lakrn hy the common pcop.c for some
thing vAl;lahi". The sui phurrt of Iron, i;
easily t'cc"nnfoscd by the action of atmos-
rhcrc air; heat, or moisture, and when thus
dccomroScd, and in some instances recon-
blned. ill the form Of AlllairS, Corbonatc<,
&c, i! is hcl in solution by water, and is
an excellent tonic. 1t possesses this prop
cr'y in proportion to the quantity Of Iron
contained in it. "Sulphur watcr," derives
lis p"rnliar''y, generally, from the sulphur
existing i'll the sul plrct Of Iron. Water i'm
pregnated with sulphur is valuable in some
diseases, as for instance, in diseases Of tic
skin, and in those diseases where laxaliycs
arc necessary. We know Of no "T,;mc
stone watcr'' in AbbevilIe, and at the same
time we believe it is here, for the Granular
Lime Stone is primitive rock, and this is
primitive country. We are muling to
h@zzardMe opiuion Aat Lime stoue qculef"
aoM get be 5ovu1 IN Abbeville
We suppose that Iron, Sulphur, Lime,
Mngnc$ia: and Alum, will probably consti-
tute the basis Of all the valuable mineral
waters that will ever be found in Abbc vile.
Some OF the gasses, as Hydrogen, Sulphl-
rettcd hydrogen, and Phosphurelted hy-
drog"n are occasionally found in com
bination with water about swamps,
marshes, &c. The presence of tho two
former, may be tested in the following man
ner. On walking about such places bub-
bles will rise to the surface very numerous
ly, and il lighted candle, or torch, be ap-
piled to them, they will instantly inname.-
The latter will burn spontaneously, the mo,
ment it rises to the surface without the ap.
pication of fire. One word as to the Hot
or Warm springs, spoken Of in the books,
and which are occasionally to be found in
this country. In our opinion the water OF
these springs, is heated by the interior
spent up fires referred to in our first arti
cle We confess we should regard coun
try where these springs are found as ra,he,
unsafe i'll consequence Of its hab.zilyto vol
canic action, Earth quakes, and the like
and at the same time centuries, upon cen
turIes, might elapse, without the developc
ment of.any thing Of the kind.

Matching Fish Matching eggs by
artificial heat is well known and ex-
tensively practised in China, as is also
the Matching Of fish. The sale Of
spawn for this purpose forms an i'm
portant branch Of trade in China
The fishermen collect with care, on
the margin and surface Of the water,
all the gcIatnous matters that contain
spawn fish, which is then placed in an
egg-shell, which has been fresh emp
tied through small hole, which is
then stopped, aud the she'll is then
placed under a sitting fowl In few
days the Chinese break the she'll in
warm water; (warmed by the sun. -
The young fish are then kept in water
until they are large enough to be
placed in pond. This plan in some
measure counteracts the great destruc-
ton Of spawn by troli-nets, which
have caused the extinction of many
| fisheries.

I'm affecting scene Extract Of
letter written by Lieut.. Arthur, of the
LIST Mississippi regiment, to his broth
er, the editor ofthe Vicksburgh Wing,
dated Camargo June ed, ls47:
'Whsn General Taylor parted with
our regiment, he expressed the deepest
emotions. After recounting the con-
slant and faithful service and the uni
form good conduct Of the regiment he
babe them adieu--wishcd them a hap
py voyage TO their friends and families
and happiness through lie. He cx-
pressed great regret at being forced to
part with regiment which had rem
dered him such efficient service, and
had accompanied him through all the
pcr:ls of the past year. But he said
he had the satisfaction to know that
they had honored themselves, and
honored the State they represented, as
well as having sustained him, and
would therefore be received with re-
spect by their friends at home. When
he babe them final adieu, he shed
tears like a father parting with favor
tic child. The old war-worn soldier
although ne is as unyielding as a man
can be, has heart worthy Of its fame
and it's services, and he cannot conceal
its real feelings"

Cen .Nia0n and Santa hind
Gen. Minon, whom Santa Anna de.
nonnoed for a want Of skill and cour.
age at Buena Vista, has published in
the Repubiicano refuta,ion Of the
charge brought against him. He de-
clares that the assertion by Santa An.
ma, of the want OF provisions and wa.
ter in the army, is falsehood. He
states that he himself had cattle to the
number Of 600 head, besides maize and
flour, Of which he apprized Santa An
ma. He further asserts that the lat
ter's retreat was unjastifiable; that tho
manner of it was sill! more so--mo.
wing of in the darkness OF the night,
and leaving hundreds Of his poor
wounded soldiers to their fate on the
held--more like a fugitive hiding
from from his enemy than General
