The deficiency of Hotel accommodation in India, China,
and other places in the East to whict, Europeans now resort
in large and annually increasing numbers, is a subject of
general complaint ; and it is e:,riaent that the development
of the means of transit by °"..:ean and river steamers, and by
railways, which has bee:., in rapid progress now for some
years, must imperfect'_,

ascertained and on the continent of Europe, it is now an
. fact that the joint-stock system may most suc-
cessfully-. be applied to the establishment of Hotels of the
first If this be so where good private Hotels before
c4',184,ed in large numbers, there seems no reason to doubt
the
an equal degree of commercial success is attainable by
aPplication of capital, upon the same system. to the same
?bject, in countries where, thouirh the demand Is great and
ancreasing, it may almost be said that good private Hotels
do not exist.
In Calcutta a joint-stock company has lately purchased
and undertaken the management of an Hotel, and the pro-
spects of the entervrise, as a commercial speculation, may be
interred from the very high premium at which their shares
are quoted in the Calcutta market, see "Times" July 17, the
„.glishman'a Weekly Mail" of June 8, 1863, and•
'Allen's
4ndian Mail," viz., £25 paid, present value, £42i ex div.,
equal to 70 per cent. premium, and the payment of a dividend
ct 10 per cent. for the half-year ending 30th April last, equal
te 20 per cent. per annum. Bombay offers a wide field for
the establishment of an Hotel ot a first class character. The
earlyi completion of vast lines of railway converging in the
and of Bombay, and the more frequent steam communica-
tion between that pert and Europe which will soon tak3
Place, must very much increase the demand for such accom-
modation. Tice same may be said of Madras.
It is
