The deficiency of hotel accommodation in India, China, and
other places in the East to which Europeans to. resort in large
and annually Increasing numbers. L a subject of general com-
plaint and it is evident that the development of the means of
transit by ocean and river steamen, sal by railways, which has
been In rapid progress now for sane year., must imperfectly
fulfil all its important objects, so far as European intercourse
with the .at I. concerned. until this want is adequately
supplied.
Is England, and on the Continent of Europe, it is now an
ascertained fact that the paw... Lock system may most suc-
cessfully be applied to the ettabilsirnent of hotels of the first
clam. If this be so where good private hotels before existed in
large number., there seems no reason to doubt that an equal
degree of commendal success is attelbable by the application of
vital, upon the lame system, to the same object, in countries
where. though the demo., Is great and increating, it mai almost
be loud that good private hotel.. do not exist.
In Calcutta a Joint Stock Company has lately purchased and
undertaken the management of a hotel, and the prospects of the
enterprixe aa a commercial speculation. may be inferred from
the very high premium at which their shares are quoted in the
Calcutta market—see "Times" July 17. the "Englishman',

num. Bombay offers a wide field for the eaten slunerit of •
hotel of • firstnlms character. The early compleMon of vast
tines of railway converging lu the island of Bombay, and the
more trequent steam communication between that port and
Fume, which will soon take place, must very much Increase
the demand for such nem:inmate/too The same may be said of
Madras.

It is under these circumstances that the Oriental Hotels Com-
pany Limited , ls mtablished, in the confident belief that the
application o European capital to India in this form will be not
ler profitable than metal. It ts proposed, hr the lint insuineo,
to supply the urgent requirements of liombayami Pointde Oafle.
There are other equally imports, t places which will naturally

Madras, Simmer*, and Kurrachee ; not to speak at many very
important rAlway Rations In the Interior of India, when Cher'-
are now no hotels at all. -id where, so • comparatively small
outlay, there is a large field for profitable operations.
The larger class of the Company's Motels will afford all the
conveniences of the best Eur peen hotels, adapted to the climate,
and to the habits of thaw for whom they are Intended ; wi list.
In even the mealiest tiers, the health and comfort of the inmates
will be carefully studied.
