sHANNONDALE SPRINGS.
THIS healthy and beautiful Watering

THIS healthy and beautiful Watering Place
l. will be under the personal superintendence Of
the undersigned during the present summer, who
will use every effort in his power to render it one
of the most attractive and agreeable watering
places in Virginia. 1t is situated an elevation
or spur of the majestic Blue Ridge Mountain. in
the county of Jefferson, five miles south of Charles.
town, the county seat.
Passengers leaving Baltimore or Washington by
the morning train Of cars will arrive at Harper's
Ferry at haifpast eleven q, nv, from thence in the
Winchester and Potomac railroad cars, ten miles
to Charlestown, where twelve passenger coach
will receive and convey them into Charlcstown,
and, if desired. to the Springs to dinner, over
good road and through lovely country.
The analysis made by the late DR.. De Butts from
one hundred grains Of the water from the main
fountain, afforded So grains of sulphate Of lime,
lOa grans carbonate OF lime, 49, grains of sulphate
of magncsia, (epsom salts,) grain OF the muriate
of magnesia, grain muriatc of coda, 3 10 grains
sulphate Of iron, and ITO grains of carbonate of
iron.
From the above analysis the waters of Shannon.
dale may very properly be chased among the Sn.
line Chalybeates-a combination Of the most valu
able description in the whole range of mineral
waters. 1t may therefore be positively asserted
without exaggeration or fear of contradictions that
no mineral water within the limits of the United
States possesses the same constituent parts or is
more salutary and efficient purgative, than the
water of Shannondale Springs This water acts
as gently AZ the mildest aperient, without giving
rise to those unpleasant sensations of pain and de.
bility 80 often occasioned by ordinary cathart
prepared by the most skilfol physicans.
The free use of this water acts almost immedi.
ately upon the skin and kidneys. removes worms,
relieves the convalescent from bilious or other
fevers, dyspepsia, dropsical swellings, calculous
affections, hemorrhods, scrofula, indigestion, rheu-
matism, loss of appetite, exhaustion, general de-
oilty, gravelly concretions, structures, and q
variety Of other diseases to which man ia subject;
and it is freely acknowledged by all who have
been afflicted with any of the above diseases that
the free of the ShannOndaie waters have effect
cd permanent cures.
Sulphur, mineral hot and cold baths furnished
upon application at the bar.
The Hotel is large and commodous, the cottages
numerous and comfortable.
The table will be supplied with the beet beef,
mountain and valley mutton, together with all
the Injuries afforded in the fertile valley of Vir-
ginia.
The best wines, brandies, and other liquors can
always be had at the table at the bar.

tFOR THE REPUBLIC.
DE prOfuudiS.

Why doth the landscape wear 10 pale hues
Whence il this darkcning film before mine eyes
Doth my life's sun its autumn mists wade through
Are such the shadows Of our evening skies
Not yet has my existence passed the bound
Of its first months Of summers and stand
Blindly bewildcred, in depth profound,
Waiting the pressure of some kindly hand
To lead me
To the bright goal dreamed of--stiii uh"on'
Age hath, like night, a soft aurorai pean'
PLAYING in glory FER its wintry brow
And in it's crown thousand star-fires CLEAN
tn warm the heart stream Timeis chilling now;
But darkened youth has neither sun nor star,
save IN the eternal depths-and mine is dark
with shadows from the graye-land; while afar,
Upon the distant steep, the goal mark
With fearful eye!
Fain would / reach that height before die.
| would have left an echo of mys song
Amid my native hills--soft the air
That whispers music their green paths among
When skies are blue, and summer wanders there.
would have left the memory of my name
Linked with the wild flower of their solitudes,
That children might have lisped it when they came
To the green chambers Of the budding woods,
And sorrowing said,
ssTHE HARP OF FLOWERS rs BRoEEN--sHE is DEAD
Ii may not be--be still, my heart, be still!
Though knowest the green fields on the Sabbath
shore
Where fountains spring, such depths as thine to
fill,
And where this longing thirst is known no more.
There, the bursting flowers, will fall no blight;
Music like that we dream of fill the air;
There viii be morn, and glorious noon: but night
With shadowy wing, will never hover there;
And on the ear
viii fall dear voices that grew silent here.
And friends, ye whom love and sorrowing leave
We will remember me when have passed
From the spring sunshine of our hills, and grieve
That my life IS fountain fled away fast!
Ye will remember me, and breathe my name
Softer and sadder when the form is fled;
Ye will forget nay faults, for loves true flame
Burns brighter for the absent and the dead.
No more, my heart, more
The dream long dreamed-the yearning though
is DER. j.. G. F.
