popularity and patronage not vouchsafed to any
other Southern watering place. 1t has more

mediately efeotual-for with the vigorous start
of the bile commenced a rapid recovery
The reader will perceive, says the Washing
ton Star, at a glance, that this is mere ed
parte statement; and that the poetic Willis
fails to remove the doubts excited by the old
woman's felonious allegation and subsequent
expectorant insult
