BKRKKLY SPRINGS, Aug 5th.
After pleasant journey on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. rendered interesting by beautiful
mountain and river scenery, arrived here yes
terday, and now after tasting of the good things
are among the most healthful and pleasant 10 the
State, and should rank equal to the White Sulphur
OF Greenbrier. The water is pure and free from
the Irritating saline matter, which, with few exs
ceptions is fault at watering places 10 this region
oiEthe country, and piece of news to your lady
rendering the skin white, soft and fair. I don't
mean BY this to convey the Idea that 1t is "foun,
tain OF youth and beauty" or any of that sort OF
exlravagant talk, but ito effect upon the system
works an astonishing change In the appearance oil
tne skin, az any one who closely observes our lady
visitors may see.
The springs are situated In the midst of beauti.
fu scenery, which well repays walking mile or
two to see, and that mile two walked before
breakfast will give the invalid an appetite seldom
experienced In the dusty crowded city.
Colonel j. strother, our host. Is gentleman
which Is quite enough to say for any body. He
