Mr. EDIroR have been pleased t61ee in your
columns advertisements of Beaufort, Re Sulphur
Springs, in Catawba county, and Kittrelrs Springs,
in Granville county. These, with many other places
in North Carolina, furnish healthful and pleas

to insults from fools and fanatics.
To those who desire sea-breczes ard Sea-bathng
Beaufort is the place have never had the pleasure
of visiting it myself but from faithful desci ptions,
l doubt not it is one Of the most pleasant summer
resorts upon the whole Atlantic coast.
The Messrs. Backnall, the proprietors of the Kit
trell Springs, are intelligent and enterprising gen.
tlemen and have made heavy OUTLAWS in preparing
for the accommodation of visitors The qualities of
the water are unsurpassed by any chaly in the
country, and their healing and heath-givng effects

picturesque country, where the lovers of the beau

The White Sulpher Springs, in Catawba, hereto
fore almost inaccessible easily reached the
Western n. c. Railroad running within five miles
of them They are in portion Of country that
"down country people, would consider mountain
GUS and are surrounded by wealthy and intelligent
population. Notwithstanding their almost lin

Capt. II. l.. Robards, of Salisbury, has become the
proprietor of these Springs. l speak knowingly
