Bradford's 5priugs.
IT is a circumstance of no small impo?
portance to the citizens of this State to
have a convenient and healthy situation, to
which they can have access during the
Summer and Autumnal moaths.
The Bradford Spring* at this time, ex
I hibit such a situation. The buildings,
here, are capacious and convenient ; and
are as well calculated for the accommoda
tion of the delicate and infirm, as those
who are in search of pleasure.
The situation is, probably, one of the
\ most eligible that this country affo rds.
The elevation is considerably ahove the
common level of the surface. The rise
and declivity ot the hill is gradual and re
gular : and its summit smooth and un
broken. The Springs empty out of the
basis of the hill, at different apertures,
where it abrubtly breaks off, in almost, a
perpendicular dcscent.
The water is a strong mineral. /It is
transparent and palatable. The ingredi
ents which form the composition of this
mineral, have not yet been accurately as
certained by chymical analysis. A ,f^w
individuals have annually visited those
Springs, and those alone, can form an ad
equate idea of the advantage which results
. ?rom attending them.
The ruinous condition of the buildings
in all probability, and the want of accom
modation has, hitherto, prevented a* num
ber of persons from attending these Springs.
But the subscriber flatters himself that he
is now, well preparcfl for the accommoda
tion' of a number of persons. And he
pledges himself to spare no exertions to<
render the situation of all those who attend
these Springs both coiqfortable and agree

Extract of a letter from a respec
table house in Liverpool to their cor
respondent in this city, dated 1st
July, 1810.,
The weather lately having been
rather cold and wet, our -harvest will
not be so early aa the finanes* of the
spring led us atone time to antfcipaie,
but so far no actual injur, had t>eeu
done to the growing crops, and they
are reported in general to look well.
With, future favorable weather, it
will therefore be perceived from the
state of the average returns at present,
that our ? ports may be exnected to
close next quarter against all descrip
tions of Foreign Grain, more espe
cially when it is considered, flint
while the import rates remain fixed
at what they were, the market prict a
of every thing under a return to n
metallic currency are relatively redu
ced.
