My dear II
In my last letter, I suggested some of the ad
vantages, which not only this village and its iin-
idiatc vicinity, but the state would derive from
these sprint's. At first thoucht it mav seem to
you a whimsical notion, that, they will also be of

such an idea is not wholly visionary. . Indepen
dent of the medical virtues of these fountains,
the waters of which, it may be said in a literal

are other considerations still more important.

most successful intercessors for conciliating and

wealthy politician in the ancient dominion, who
depends, more on the fascinations of his bottle,
than of his talents and attainments, for the ore-
servation of his influence. In the moments of
conviviality, we forget our picjudices and bury
our animosities. When I am takinar wine with

the different sections of our country. It will be
lound, that the people of the south are not all ty
