BUFFALO LITHIA SPRINGS, VA..August 10.—The days pass pleas-

antly at the old Buffalo Lithia, and in accuple of weeks the season will be athigh-water mark. Something 1 like onehundred and fifty guests are here, andunlike the brook, "they come and go,"

with the difference largely on the sideof arrival?. The Buffalo Lithia Is differ-ent from any pleasure and health resorton the continent in that indescribablehome-like charm so soon felt by the vis-itor, and that its social edict against

samblins. dissipation and debauchery isa- string-ant and Inviolate as the laws ofthe Medes and Persians. Its hospitabledoors stand open wide for the lady orgentleman strariijKr, who is at o:ice admit-ted to all the privileges of the place, butsince the property came into the pos-session of Colonel Thomas F. Goode, somethirty years ago. and this order of thingsInausruratefl, Buffalo has been an un-comfortable camping place for the gam-bling shark and the wine-bibber. Thosewho have the pleasure of knowing Col.Goode know full well that this order ofthings will prevail as long a.s he is pro-prietor. Neither the :'ani':' of the watersnor thi handsome income from its sale at

home and abroad hn.s turned Buffalo'shead ot heart; th« same old-time simplic-ity, inaugurated by our grandparents, isstill in vogue. There Is no code whichrequires you to dress three or four limesa clay to nrevent criticism, ar.rl the people- who come here usually care less for i!i.;j-play than to rest, improve their healthmd have a good time.

Absent is ih'1 rush, the .ulare and thenoises after midnight, which has so oftenIriven sleep from the couch at other

themselVes with tenpins and severalither names on the lawn; some go

driving, and occasionally extend it to ati-li» to the quaint old town of Clarks-ville, ?ix miles distant. The disciples ofTerpsichore enjoy themselves nearly ev-ery evening, but promptly at 10 o'clockthe band strikes the strains of "Home,Sweet Home,'! and soon the lights areout and all is quiet.
