LINC1LNTON, July 81.
With the excellent arrangement.
which the efficient mhuagt mtnt of the
Carolina Central Railroad Company
have adopted, you now leave Vii
nIngtOn at 3 . clock p. N. and arrive
at LlncOlntOn al . o 'clocl \. m., a very
pleasant town on the Western extension
OF the G. G.. T. T.. The climate her
is bracing and cool at night, WINCH
compen safes one for the heat OF
the day. The society here i
AS pleasant as you will find in the
State. There are several churches
here, embracing most all denomIuu-
tons.
The services at st. Likes were
very much enjoyed last ) Sabbath. the
music being very good, and the servi-

Rev. Mr.. Netmore, "a dIlIgeut worker
IN the cause of Christ, who atteu -
several paris hes III tins section of the
country Two mics from LIncOltuu
you will find the Burton Springs, d
water which sooner or later must be
widely and tavOrltely known for it,
great virtue III the cure OF Dyspepsia,
and IN fact, Is good for most cases OF
chronic Affections. The writer saw te.,-
timonials Of some Remarkable cures ;
persons spending the summer at Lin
cOlutOn can have this ater brough. to
the N every day and II keeps perfect,
ly sweet tor long time, retailing Its
properties, therefore It's not lit cessury
to visit the Spring to be benefited 10y
the water. Leaving LlncOlnton, you
proceed up the road to Butftiow, the
present terminus of the &. &. Rail
road. You then take stage a distance
of to 3 miles urIngs brings you to
Cleaveland Spring. the hack passes the
Springs, on It's way to Shelby, ii thriv-
ing place, and is possibly destined to
bee me very important town. There
are several WilmingtOuians now at
Cleaveland. now enjoying tue waters,
which are White Sulphur, hon g.
These Springs are susceptaDle of very
great Improvement. The waters are
superior. Among others from VIII
mington, Mrs. Mag B; Mrs. Q; Mrs.

pleasant ride across the county, dis
tance of, say 26 miles from Lincolnton
brings me to the Catawba White Sui
phur Spring., which are in Catawba
county, eight miles from Hickory
StatIDn. There | found "A good many
W1imlngtonians. and Fay etteviIilalS,
who seemed to be exhiIerated from the
effects OF the sulphur water, mountain,
air, good eating, &c, Among others
MIR. B. G. w; &. W. w; MIR. S. n.
M. and w,te. Of Wilmington, were
there with portions of their families.
Mrs. d. Il. NJ. of W, WAS also
there adding lustre to the society,
which was very pleasant, music hav-
ing charms to sooth the savage. I
Was led to the parlor by the very
sweet strains winch proceeded from
MIR. l.. OF Charlotte, and the charming
Miss May .. of Salisbury, n. c., who
certainly add very much 10 the guests
who are about 300. There might be a
decided improvement in the string
band, which is very poor, and a thing
which ought to be remedied by
the proprietor, as good music adds
materially to the pleasure of a water
ing place. On the train between
Statesville and Hickory, the writer
met the charming Miss Florence H.,
SO much admired-and justly so-for
her great beauty by the Wilmington
beaux. She Is sojourning at Hickory
for season.
Now, word in favor of Wilmington.
The salt air, the fine fishing and sail
ing, should attract the mountain peo-
pie to visit our city by the sea, and
thence to the sound and Smithville,
and in making the change they will
lind thst they will be very much ben
ehtted by the salt air, change of seen
cry, etc. L hope our turnpike road
will be completed by another season,
and then persons can have access to
the sea shore without much trouble |
or expense.
In conclusion, would state as fact
that about two weeks ago a hail storm
