THE WARM SPRINGS.


We ask the attention of the reader to the
advertisement in another column, of this &C.
LIBERATED watering place. 1t is situated amid
some of the grandest and most beautiful see
merry of Western Virginia. The views from
various points of the Warm Springs noun
tain, are justly celebrated, and the prospect
from the famous rock, 27OO feet above tide
water. one of almost unequalled magnifcence
and loneliness.
The valuable properties of these Springs
as medicinal waters, are well known. In dys
pepsia, of long standing, in chronic rheuma-
tism and paralytic affections, their effects
have been remarkable. The opinion is ex
pressed by high medical authority that the
Warm Springs Bath, with the water taken
internally, assisted by proper regimen, mode
rate exercise and pure air, will have more eff
fcaey in many chronic diseases than all the
drugs that can be prescribed by the faculty.
No one who has bathed in those waters will
ever forget them. The pleasure and volup-
tuousness of the enjoyment were worth vi
sit to the Warm Springs, without regard to
their curative properties.
DIR. peterborough, the late proprietor.
made some valuable additions to the bathing
advantages of the establishment One of
these is a cold plunging bath, alongside the
gentlemens bath, and which is supplied with
spring water from the neighboring hills.
The bather can thus, if he chooses, use the
Russian plan, and leave the warm pool for
plunge in the cold reservoir This is LuX
uRY, however, which none but the strongest
constitutions can enjoy without hazard.
The hotel and other accommodations for
visitors are of high repute.
ABOLITIONISM ON ITS LAST LEGS.
The antics cut up by the aboitionists on
the last 4th OF July, are better calculated to
make people laugh at, than to dread them
Burning up Constitutions, burning efigies,
chasing and rescuing imaginary fugitiyes
and all such sorts OF superlative and exagge.

sitely ludicrous and farcical. They ought to
be more economical of their mad DISPLAYS
or they will exhaust their supply of tom
foolery, and become fiat and insipid at their
future celebrations. How they are to surpass
their incendiary absurdities on the last ma.
tional anniversary. we don't exactly see, un-
less they throw themselves into the fire
which is "eonsummation devoutly to be
wished"
DIR. Franklin, in letter to John Jay, once
remarked that the desire of pleasing, by
perpetual rise of compliments, in the polite
French nation, had SO used up all common
expressions of appreciation, that to use them
almost implied censure. Hence music"
said the philosopher, that formerly might
be sufficiently praised. when it was called
bonnie; to 60 little faster, they called it er-
ceHente; then saper6e, magnyfqae, erguise,
celeste; all of which being, in their turns,
worn out, there only remains dirime; and
when that is grown rs Insignificant as its pre-
decessors, think they must return to COM
mon speech and common sense"
We would suggest to the aboIitionists that
unless they husband their billingsgate, and
cease to pilo up the agony of their fanati-
cism in language and action. to such an ex-
height, they win be exposed to q
psril which we are sure would be to them
.etribution more terrible than any which the
avn could infict-"a return to common
peech and common sense"
