Surely thelife principle has triumph
ed at Gettysburg wonderfully in the
long run OF events. The battle and its
incident the discovery Of this spring,
have resulted in addition to, rather
than a subtraction from, the sun of
human life. But the great healing
spring is not only saving, and to save
more lives than were destroyed by the
sword in the battle at Getty sbsrg, but
it is repairing the rssases Of war and
Transforming the physical aspects Of
the surrounding theatres of strife. In
the periodical influx OF health pilgrims
to this fountain OF Hygeia, and in the
expenditure Of foreign capital in their
midst, the people of Gettysburg are
being measurably compensated for the
losses they sustained during the battle.
There is something impressive and
awe-inspiring in the rapid transforms
ton of this great battle field, with its
teeming cemeteries and immortal mem
Dries, into gigantic park or pleasure
ground for visitors to this healiug
spring. The number Of health seekers
who have annually resorted to Gettys-
burg since the discovery of this spring
has more than doubled every year;
this season it has more than quad
rupled. Gettysburg and its environs
are again in possession of an army OF
invasion, but this time the invaders
are seeking the preservation OF their
own lives and not the destruction of
those OF others. Every available re-
source Of entertainment aud lodging is
exhausted, and still they come. The
employees Of the principal hotels have
been kept tolersbly busy during the
months Of July and August telegraph
ing or writing applicants for sccommo-
dations not to come. as there was no
more room. 1t really appears as if all
the world would come TO Gettysburg
this season, if they could only be pro-
vided with entertainment and amuse-
ment. The season commenced on the
first OF May, and seems likely to project
into the autumn months. At this rate
will soon be 8 gamer as
we'll as the nation and the human race,
by the battle of Gettysburg.
| cannot more appropriately conclude
this account OF the curative prodigy
which is here astonishing the world,
than BY quoting from some OF the med.
ical reports upon its curative effects.
Medical men are not apt to exaggerate
the virtues OF newly discovered tbers-
peutic agents. Perhaps the tendency
ia in the opposite direction. What they
do say, therefore, is entirely reliable.
Dr. Bell. the author Of medical
work on Mineral Springs, thus cata-
logues the curative effects ofthe Gettys-
burg Katalysine Water.
The Gettysburg Water hssproduced
curative and restorative effects
in different forms OF Dyspepsia, Sickness
ofthe Stomach, Heartburn, Waterhrash,
Acute Neuralgia Pains, Loss OF Ape
tite, Chronic Diarrhpa, Torpid Liver,
Gout, Chronic Rheumatism, Nodosi-
ties of the Joints, Approaching and
Actual Paralysis, Diabetes, Kidney Dis.
ease, Gravel, Hamaturia, Abdominal
Dropsy, Cholera lnfantum, &c.
The New York Medical Record bears
the following testimony to the marvel.
lous power OF this fluid over the human
organism
From experiments made on our own
person as well "a others, we can state
the Gettysburg Water is regulator OF
all these secretions and excretions;
under its influence the kidneys and
liver, the glands OF the intestinal canal
and the skin, all perform their normal
functions; the bowels, if consupaied.
become regular; the skin, il dry, be-
comes moist; the torpid liver is excited
to healthy action, and the kidneys per-
form their iunctions with perfect regu-
larity. There is total absence OF any
thing whatever; the us
nediratrir seems reused TO increased
activity, and all morbid causes OF
bodily or even mental disorder seems
rapidly 10 pass away. The result Is:
appetite and digestion, a treer
strong pulse, calmer
mind, and more tranquil sleep, a
clearer complexion, and an increasing
nervous and muscular power.
A writer for the Medical and Surgical
Reporter, of Philadelphia, thus refers to
one OF the common effects of this fluid:
One of the marvels of the history of
the cures brought about by the use OF
the Gettysburg Water is the removal OF
podosities or hard Jumps and concre-
tons. evidently OF a equity nature.
Intimately connected with chronic
indigestion are diseases Of the kidneys
in one case by diabetes, in
smother bv calculus or gravel-of the
cures Of which, by the use Gettysburg
Water, we have well attested cases.
The same writer further remarks OF
the solvent or dissipating effects OF this
fluid upon Gout, or Rheumatic calculus,
that,
whether we regard these Jumps as
deposits made up of chalk, or OF urate
of soda tissue, we are compelled to say
with Dr. Bell, that the entire removal
Of the inorganic body without surgical
has not, We believe, been
brought about by either internal or ex-
ternal remedies, or external appllca-
tons, or nv both united.-Nso York
