this country, at which time 1t was known
and visited, as well as for the luxury and eX-
eellence OF lie baths-is ready for visitors.
Colonel EuBASK, theglorious host and pro-
prietor Of the establishment, still manages.
II Is place OF beauty and grandeur that mo
one can fail to admire. There is charm IN
the Warm Springs and the daily life there
that is peculiar. The scenes and the ar
OF the buitdings-if that maybe
called arrangement which may almost. as
well be described as derans sement-seem
to give \ tone and bearing to the society of
the place that promotes the ease and grace
Of social Intercourse. The spacious porch
In front OF the hotel has mysterious effect
upon those who, sitting beneath its shelter,
in sight OF tho lovely mountain before it.,
the civilities OF social life.
The Warm is in q region Of plenty. and
the larder of the establishment is always
rich, and is commended by the acceptable
manner in which things are prepared in
the kitchen. The place is admirable alike
for seekers of health and pleasure.
CApoN SPRINGS AND BArlis.-This water
ing place has an excellent reputation for
curative powers In some very troublesome
and prolonged cases that have batlied the
faculty. We are inclined TO faith in extra
ordinary cures wrought by the waters
springing from the earth. All who. are I'M
pressed with early teaching must entertain
a lurking superstition, II you please, that
tends TO faith in cures that are wrought
by unaccountable means-such as waters !:
ride the wells OF scripture ages, bathing
in Jordan, &c. For this reason we have
fingered by the fountains, and hoped that
all sufferers who rcSortcd to them might be
cured.
There is perhaps little more OF mystery
about Capon than most other springs.
There are striking facts about it going to
show this. We commend the place to visi-
tors as well for its fine scenery as for it's ad-
vantages OF healthy location, fine tempera-
ture, and the curative powers OF its waters.
Mr.. WILLIAM II. SALE, popularity known
for some time as one of the managers OF the
place in partnership with Mr.. WILLIAM
FRAZER, is the present lessee and man.
ager OF the property. See his advertise
ment.
JORDAN ALUM SPRISGs.-This place has
the alum waters in all their degrees and
phases, and is famed for its fine buildings
and their arrangement for the promotion OF
the comfort and enjoyment Of its guests.
1t is this year under the direction OF Mr.
JOHN w. CAMERON, former manager, who
is assisted by our old friend WOODWARD,
well known to the public as IN energetic,
polite, and obliging landlord. See adver-
tisement.
BLUE RIDGE SPRISGS.-This watering
place is upon the Blue Ridge, where it is
crossed by the Atlantic, Mississippi and
Ohio railroad at the point OF its lowest de-
preston. 1t is Immediately upon the road.
You get out OF the cars into the porch OF
the hotel. or course the surroundings and
the views are admirable. The water is COM
mended highly-especially for dyspepsia,
D. disease still most troublesome to society,
the hardness OF the times.
Hard times, that restrain people to frugahty,
whet the appetite and tempt to indiscretion,
Just as excess in drinking often follows pro-
longed drought Of liquid indulgenccs. So
now there seems to be as much dyspepsia as
and Mr.. BROWN, Of the Blue Ridge
will be overwhelmed il only the dyspeptics
90 to his pleasant summer resort. See ad-
yertisement.
HYGEIA HoTEL.-This grand establish
ment, at "Old Point Comfort" is as good
as any for saltwater bathing, and is excel
lent for the salt air and for the grand waters
that are beheld thereirom. There the guests
see the merchant marine and the national
vessels moving grandly before the hotel.
You are inspired by the sea-breeze as it
sweeps through the spacious porches Of the
hotel, and the leaping waves impart an eH-
hilarating effect that speeds the pulse and
enlivens the spirits Of the beholders.
The Hygeia is one Of the most admirable
OF hotels, and its proprietor, Mr.. PHoEBUs,
a practical, attentive, and considerate host
one who knows what's what as we'll as any
man on sea or land: -y.-'s<
It will be seen that an arrangement mas
been made, by which pleasure excursions
from Richmond to Old Point, including
board at the Hygeia, may be enjoyed at all
times during the season at rates that are; 80
reasonable that there are few who cannot
lind means to enjoy them. This is an inn
portant addition to the resources OF the
Richmond people for recreation. ;.
