BARNES HOTEL, MISSISSIPPI CTTY.-f the
last weeks sweltering experience in the city
has not created desire on the part of our
people to get into a more comfortable place,
they must be differently constituted from
folks in general, and strangely oblivious to
all that is agreeable and healthful. With
the thermometer ranging above ninety
during the day, and away up into that re
gion at night, those who endure such heat,
when they can with ease escape it by few
hours run on the Mobile Railroad to Barnes
Hotel, at Mississippi City, must Be season.
ing their constitutions for still warmer
climate, where a good deal of weeping,
wailing and crashing of teeth is said to be
done by the residents. At Barnes Hotel
the guests enjoy the cool breezes of the
gulf, salt bathing, the best sport in fishing,
and every comfort that modern enterprise
has enabled the hotel keeper to provide for
the bodily comfort, all for the very mode
rate sum of eighty dollars per month,
twenty-five dollars per week, or three dol
lars and half per day. Here in the city
sleep is almost impossible at night, while
there one is famed into peaceful slumber
by the sottest Of zephyrs, while being lulled
by the gentle beatings of the rising tides of
the great deep. Here the heated piles Of
bricks and mortar, and the efiuvia from
evapOrating cutters all combine to take
from life all enioyments, while there every
breath is laden with the perfume Of the
pine forests or the exhilerating salt of the
gulf, to which the open glades of the pine
forests and free stretch Of CLASSY waters
offer no distractions. In a word, it is the
place TO 60 to, if You wish to recruit ex-
hausted energies and avoid all the disa-
greeable concomitants of city life at small
expense, and without making long
journey.

9!effysburg KatnIysIne water and spring.


Attention is invited to the reduction in
the price of the Gettysburg medicinal
waters. which is announced in another col
umn. 1t is a step in the right direction on
the part of those who monOpolize the sup
ply of this invaluable medicine. The New
York Express remarks that the principle OF
seIf-preservatiOn conceded TO this tiuidwOuld
impart to the fluid great value as healing
agent, even if it only possessed one-haf OF
the virtues ascribed to it by high medical
authorities. Phe experience of thousands
of years has proved that natural pharmacies
of medicinal waters are the only remedies
for many of the diseases engendered by
civilization, and the bottling and preserva-
ton of these fluids, without loss of thera-
peutic virtue, is a problem which has taxed
human ingenuity from the earliest times.
This important problem, according to con-
current testimony, has been solved in the
great labratOry of nature, in which are com
pounded the waters of the Gettysburg Kat
alysine Spring. If carefully bottled they
retain their sensible and curative properties
for years after their withdrawal from their
sources. This renders practicable the trans
pOrtation of 1.-THE springs to the bedside of
the afflicted everywhere, and to the homes
of the INDECENT who can not afford to 90 to
them, but who mag be, nevertheless,
stricken with some of the diseases of artf-
cial life for which these natural medicines
are the only remedies.
Yet, notwithstanding this portable pro-
perty of this Auid, we learn that the hotels
and boarding houses at the Gettysburg
Spring are beginning to receive guests for
medical treatment. All the signs are that
with the additional attraction of the cere-
monies of the military indication of the bat
tle-feld which is to take place this summer.
the crowd of health seekers, pleasure hun
tiers, and sight seers are to be more numer-
Gus there than at any former season.
