Amin 10 Warm sprInE..

ED. srArEsMAS STARTING at half-past S. o.
clock A NJ, about a week ago, FROM Walla WallA,
| found myself comfortably settled at the Warm
Springs House the same evening. A good nights
rest, with the pure air of a higher altitude and
under the shadow of majestic trees, was truly
iuvigorating, and the morning atmosphere was
refreshing to both body and spirits.
Breakfast over and digested by cool walk,
the warm bath was the next luxury, and, Mr..
Editor, am unable to describe the sensation
which bath in this water produces. Conceive
if you can the highest state of felicity that the
human body can enjoy and then add to it the
desire 20 remain in that state for an indefinite
time and that may suffice until you try it your
self.
The natural temperature OF the water is near
er what you would have it than could be pro-
duced by any artificial process. Methinks one
could sleep in its limpid bed and dream of foat>
ing towards Paradise. The water is impregna-
ted with sulphur or other minerals so as to give
it a most agreeable consistency. 1t has also a
peculiarly cleansing effect, and after few ablu-
tons the skin becomes almost polished.
There are two springs near together, each
gushing from a scam in the rocks which form
the right bank of the Umatilla river. The lar
gest spring comes out about seventy-6ve feet
above the level of the river, Fl ON which the wa
ter is conducted to bath room below and falls
about ten feet into large bathing tub, afford
ing an opportunity for the bather to enjoy a
splendid showering.
An eminent German chemist has analyzed the
water and pronounced it equal to the celebrated
springs at Baden Baden, Germany, and it is
therefore of great value to invalids who arc in
weak DC ,icatc state of health. A weeks trial
by an invalid member Of my own family has
proved good testimony In its favor.
The Warm Springs House is Kept by Mr.. Clute,
with the assistance of Mr.. Kelly, and with the
pleasant and accommodating treatment of these
gentlemen and their estimable ladies no one can
fail to enjoy the time spent at this place.
Another enjoyment at this delightful retreat is
in trout fishing Take a stroll any morning or
evening along the river bank with hook and line
and you may return in hour or so with Il
string of fish weighing from two to ten pounds
each have INDUCED in this recreation with
decided satisfaction and made delicious break
fast of fish of my own procuring to enjoy with
other good things.
advsse the carc-worn business man, who
delves in the dust from carly dawn to the late
shadows of evening, to take his family weary
with domestic drudgery, and leave their cares
behind them and seek this calm and healthful
retreat ard become wiser and better in due time.

THE Power BEHIND TIE THRoNE-It
is reported of Secretary Seward that at late
Diplomatic dinner he remarked, that although
Abraham Lincoln was nominated for Prcsi-
dent over his head, yet he never allowed any
mortal being to go between Lincoln aud
himself; and although Andrew johnson had
been selected without his co operation, yet
no living man would ever be successful in
standing between him and the present Exec
utive. Those who were familiar with affairs
at Washington during Liucoln's aduinistra>
ton, know that Seward was /" the power be-
hind the throne" and that not a single move
ment of importance was made without the
Secretary's concurrence. The my policy"
of Andrew johnson is the policy that Sew
ard originated whilst Lincoln was yet alive,
and it is the policy that will be adhered to
despite the rawlings of the mad fanatics who
have temporary control Of Congress.

FRoN BLAcKFoor.-Mr. E. B. Whitman ar
rived this week from BIackfoot and gives LIS
some interesting items from that quarter. He
reports that inst at the present time the country
is in every respect greatly overdone. There is
large surplus of miners and men of almost evr
cry trade and profession in the country, and
goods and supplies of all kinds are so plentiful
as TO bar ANYTHING like high prices or large prof

every trader and packer similarly circumstanced
has done hence the mines and business points
BY being thus overdone are made to appear much
worse than they really are. The prime cause Of
the stsguation in business is that nearly all the
trains arrived in the mines about the same time
and their goods were thrown upon the market
together. The supplies brought up from St.
Louis were not so large as were anticipated
many of the boats being loaded principally with
machinery.
