CHELTENHAM, JULY SO.

NOW that the _close of the session is generally considered to
be close at -hand, arrangements are making in almost every
quarter of this - delightful watering-place for the accommoia-
tion of several famnieS of distinction, who usually pass the
autumnal months in this pleasant retreat from the turmoil of
the great world—recruiting their health, and enjoying the
" thousand and one " agremens that are to be found here and
here only. Though serious apprehenstoes were entertained
that the Installation at Oxford, and the Musical. festival at
Westminster, would militate seriously against the interests of
Cheltenham during the present summer, yet these inauspicious
forebodings were.not realised. In no preceding season had
the Montpelier Pump-room been so crowded by the votaries
of health in the morning, or the musical promenades been
graced with so numerous and fashionable a concourse of
the votaries of pleasure • every succeeding evening; the
quadrille balls in the Rotunda have been more than
ever popular and attractive. A project has latterly
been started for the erection of a magnificent Hotel,
on the site of the Imperial Pump-room. This under-
taking, which will give to Cheltenham a new and most im-
portant feature in one of the most princely establishments of
the kind in the kingdom, is supported by some gentlemen of
fortune, who have taken shares in the plan, and it is estimated
that upwards of 50,0001. will be expended in the erection of
the Hotel, the frontage of which will extend to ')5O feet, and
the depth will be 140 feet. If the design be carried into ef-
fect, it will certainly be a splendid edifice, containing several
suites of handsome appartments for the accommodation of fa-
milies of rank and distinction, and upwards of one hundred
bed-chambers, besides servants' rooms. The site is within
view of the High-street, from which the Hotel will be distant
but a few hundred yards, and the approaches to it are through
luxuriantly wooded drives and.promenades.
We have all the bustle of the election for the eastern, division
of Gloucestershire going on around us, but we are little dis-
turbed by it here. No doubt is entertained of the success of
Mr. Tracy Leigh, who is the advocate of liberal principles,
and strennously supported by the friends of the late Member,
Sir B. W. Guise. The death of. Earl Bathurst occasions.
another vacancy in the representation of This county; and Mr.
Hicks Beach has announced himself a candidate for Cirences-
ter • and the elevation of Mr. Hanbury Tracy to the Peerage
will leave a third seat (Tewkesbury) vacant.
Amongst the most recent fashionable arrivals here are .the
Earl and Countess of Moray and family, Lord Emlyn, the
Bishop of Cloyne, Dowager Lady and Miss Ford, Lady
Barry, Lady Gordon, Sir G. Whitmore, Sir G. and Lady
Wood, Colonel and Mrs. Coghlan, Colonel Macleod, Colonel,
Mrs. and Miss Lutter, Colonel Llewellyn, &c. &c.
