The Hot fpring is about fix miles from the Warm, is much fmaller, and has been fo hot as to have boiled an egg. Some believe its degree of heat to be leflened.
It raifes the mercury in Farenheit's thermometer to 1 1 2 degrees, which is fever heat. It fometimes relieves where the Warm fpring fails. A fountain of common water, iffuing within a few inches of its margin, gives it a Angular appearance. Comparing the temperature of thefe with that of the Hot fprings of Kamfchatka, of which Krachininnikow gives an account, the difference is very great, the latter raifing the mercury to 200"^ which is with- in 12*^ of boiling water.
