Time—2:31}, Batus oF LEUK, SWITZBRLAND, August 10, 1t69.—Since the early times of the sixteenth century, when old Matthew Schiner, Arch. bishop of Sion, came to bathe his rheumatic limbs in the heating waters of Leuk, have the hot springs of this locality been known for their Twelve fountains of living water pour forth their continuons currents to the svriace of the ground, steaming hot—causing the thoughtful traveler to recall the old story of the Datch- man, who on stopping in his jouraey to water Bis borses cried out in dismay to his son, “Drive on, Hans, drive on; Hell is not far from dis place!” But most assuredly in this beautiful valley does one look in vain for any other reminder of the regions of darkness, for nature has here Performed some of her noblest work:. and directs the soul of man heavenwards by every aspect she presents. The snow capped peak of the Torrent-horn, standing guard at the head of the valley, im- Ages in its brilliant purity the sanctity of the heaven it seems almost to reach: the mighty cliffs suggest the eternity which alone can out- last them; the misty waterfalls, which recent rains have caused to spring from every crag on the mountainside to baptize the fields be- neath into newness of life, speak of the cleans ing which comes not of water, but of the Spirit; while the blooming valleys, rick with cora and wine, tell of the loving care of Him through whose ordering it is that seed ture and harvest, summer and winter fiil not in their beneficent gifts to man. So beautiful is this valley of the Dala, a trib- utary of the Rhone, that while many yet come hither tor the baths, more are attract’ i by the wild scenery of the place and of the Gemm: Pase, immediately beyond. Hence at this sea- son the little bamiet of Leukerbad is nightly filled with tourists from a!l the countries o¢ Europe with a good representation from America, earnestly engaged in “doing” Swit- zerland. We are tarrying here to-day on account of the rain. Notsoa party of stout English people who entered our hotel at2 p.m. drazgied and beat 1, but merry erough from their walk of sixt on miles over the pass, which they had braved in spite of the storm. It was inspiriting to see a tall man of sixty, Wish bis davchter,each about six feet high, come in from sucha wa'k looking as though they could easily repeatiton the morrow, (as they doubtless will.) Poo! of steaming water thirty feet square, m which twenty or more ladies and gen- Vepen, irvsed themselves up to their chins, each with a little floating stand near, to be cen coffee, tea, books, chess-men, &c., according to the tastes of individuals. In these great tanks, with the water at its natural tem- perature of 124 degrees Farenheit, the bathers remain from two to five hours daily—specta- tors being admitted free of charge. I need not Assure you the sight is amusing. From the enormous head of an over-fed gouty old gentle- man to the pale, pinched face ot a rheumatic young girl, nearly every possible variety ot human countenance was presented in the baths help being reminded of tne walrusses and sea lions, which one always sees in the Arctic rc- gions. The approach to Leukerbad from Sierre, the Present terminus of the Rhone railroad, is most romantic. A fine road with numberless tarn- ings winds up the valley of the Dala, revea'= ing atevery mile views most grand and pic- FROM SWITZERLAND. WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS.
