As cathartic and Alternative, my past expert.

has no superior here OF elsewhere. Its exemp
ton from clay. and the small relative quantities
of iron which enter its composition. render it one
of the best If not the very best mineral water for
commercial purposes; while its ability to with
stand the trying influences Of warm climates and
sea voyages, make it very desirable water for

These properties, together with the gentle.

portion of Thursday was spent by the party
IN the lobbies OF the House and Senate, where
Mrs. Fry was introduced to the members and
senators. She is certainly very prepossessing
and has n winning, placid smile bright,
