THE SPRINGS VALLEY NATURAL Curl
oS!IlES.
There can't be a rrcttier-l would say
.rauucr if could appreciate scenery bet
trr--l@lt than the valley that strikes the
view upon arriving at the summit OF the
warm Springs mountain. But 1t has been
written up 30 often and So much better
than can do II, that only give a practical
statement Of the variety Of waters which
rise In it. You first strike the Bath Alum,
where there are eight springs not ten yards
au"rt. one of which has alum water, an.
other chalvbcate, another sulphHr--cach OF
the eight Welding i different water. Then
Won come To the Warm Springs, with the
water IL rs degrees; and further on the
Hot. with The water ut lie degrees. And
last, the lIcaiiug, with q water which no
body can undcrstand. l say nobody can
understand il, for | heard to-day OF cure
which will battle the "faculty,' however
clihr they may give the reasons for it. Be-
tore The present season opened Il lazy OF
Stauuton, who had suffered with neuralgia
until she was willing, in deSpl!r, to try any
for i,f
I,.r>. When she came she was unable to
bear the faintest light upon her eyes With
eat great agony, and i'll two weeks she
could bear the strongest without the slight
IT Inconvenience, and went away cured.
NO ANALYSIS of the waters can account for
this remarkable cure.
Among the natural curiositics near here
are the Falling Spring and the Cascade.
The former Is eight miles from here, aud is
the stream from a bold mountain spring,
which falls over the perpendicular side Of
the MOUNTAIN Il distance Of one hundred
aud fifty feet. and the other, about 4 mile
oil. is stream large enough to run mill,
which tumhleS over Il less prccipltouS
height, and in its descent forms Il series OF
beautiful waterfalls. 10 these may be add
cd TWO caves in the mountain in front OF
the hotel. The entrances 10 them are not
larger than i flour barrel, and though re-
pealed attempts have been made with lead
ana line, no bottom has been discovered.
