ments which render it extremely valuable in the
moval OF great variety of Diseases as well as the

A sample of Water from a remarkable Spring own
ed by Dr. Buzzell, has been analysed by me- and Its
composition aseertained and class determined.
1t is like the sPoland Water'' a medicinal water,
dependent less on the amount of saline matter pres
ent, but more on the Kind of compound. With the
chlorides OF sodium, magnesium and calcium, COM
monty found are crenates of iron and lime and
silcate of potash and soda: the whole amounting to
nine and six-tenths OF one grain, in one gallon.
This water is entirely free from the usual organic
matter, is saturated with nitrogen gas solution
and is therefore very light and agreeable bever
age in this respect resembling the Clarendon water
Of Vermont 1t belongs the class of gaseous waters
with slight alkaline action, containing silicate of
potash. Respectfully,
The Public should also be apprised of the superior
location OF this Spring. it being only about one-haf
mile from the bridge leading from the Portland and
Boston Depot, in pleasant prospect of the city of
Portland and where patients and visitors can enjoy
the advantages not only ofsea air, but of bathing in
sea or mineral water under the same roof.
As this mineral water contains elements of self
preservation, passing through several strata of MAN.
ganese it can be kept any length oftime pure and
fresh when first taken from the Spring. not under
going the slightest chemical change in taste quail

valuable water to take board their vessels especi
ally in long voyages And it can be obtained by the
barrel or quantity for this purpose, the Spring
flows at leastone thousand barrels per day. e4
