Excerpt from Haddon Hall Cheerfulness is the handmaid of health and although there are many patients in and about Buxton, they do not seem to suffer much: there are more smiles than moans in the Bath-rooms, and rheumatism is not a disease that makes much outer show of anguish. The grounds and gardens of the Buxton Improvement Company, with the grand pavilion, central hall, concert hall, corridors, conservatories, and other attractions, are made pleasant by music and flowers. The air is genial and gentle, and yet strong for Buxton is one of the most elevated of the towns of England - the lowest part of the town being one thousand feet above the level of the sea. The baths are well ordered and well managed the water, though it be mineral, is as clear as crystal and the draughts are to many as were those of the Pool of Siloam. The records of arrivals at Buxton show how numerous are the cities and towns that send invalids to its health-giving waters. We are not, however, writing a guide to Buxton, or we might describe a score of objects, curious, interesting, and instructive, within a walk or a short drive of the town, to say nothing of its very comfortable hotels and lodging-houses. All we need add tor the information of the tourist from Buxton to Haddon is, that by means of the Midland Railway he will reach Bakewell, some two miles and a half from Haddon; or Rowsley, which is scarcely two miles distant from it - the line rrrnning in a tunnel through the hill on which the Hall stands. There are also coaches, waggonettes, and other conveyances making the journey, and private carriages, at moderate charges, can always be had for this delightful drive.
