from the Talle, but alfo from thefe following Experiments. 
'Spirit of Sal Armoniac with Spirit of Wine a little alter’d it, and 
the fame Spirit with Urine turn’d it of a whitilh Colour. Alfo 
Oylof Tartar per dchtjuipim made ic Milk v;hite ; and Powiefof

that thele Waters mult proceed from Vicfiolico Chalybeat Veins, 
wherewith the adjoyning Mountains and V^alleys abound. There 
are here and there, other Chalybeat Springs in the fame Moun-
