WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, June 21.-A sojourn for
the last four weeks at this faramed Spa of the South
has satisfied me that 1T has lost Of its admirable
curative powers, 10 certainly has not any of its
extraordinary beauties by the blightng war that lin
gered so long upon this immediate region of country.
1t is quite as beautiful in itself and in all its sur
rOundings as when in bygone years the elite and
fashionable of the South and North quaed It's heal
ing waters reDOsed under the shades of its ancient
oaks, and inhaled its invigorating atmosphere at
once the most elastic and lunginspiring that can
anywhere be found upon the surface of the globe.
The present prOprietors the Messrs. Peytons, with
an energy rarely equaled, have effected much, and
deserve favorable award of public opinion for their
successful efforts in repairing the breaches which
wears of war and disuse had brought upon the prop
erty-for bringing it fully M to the comforts and
capacity of accommodation which it possessed IN the
moro palmy DAYS of the Republic, and for again pre-
senting it TO the public as they now do, as ilrst-
class resort for the seekers of health aud pleasure
The company now here is about as large as 1t usu-
ally has been at this early period OF the season. some
from the South and Southwest, few from the Pa
cihc coast but principally from New YORK, Pennsyl-
vania. Massachusetts,, and Maryland. Among the
yistants now here have been gratlfed TO observe
several noticeable cases OF recovery from the use OF
the water and baths, and especially IN rheumatism
daily observe two Northern Thenmatlcs on the
grounds who came here two or three weeks ago. and
then moved about with great difficulty by the AID OF
canes and cTutches but who are now so lar restored
as scarcely to give in their movements any evidence
of ever having been affected with the disease. lhe
gayeties of the season will, suppose, open as
usual early in July and an unusually large crowd Is

pected railroad terminating here will certainly be In
