Mr.. EDITOR Some of the good citizens
of our borough have it in contemplation
to erect large and capacious hotel. The
need of such house, to meet the growing
want of our place, is generally admitted.
Such is the inflow of strangers at partic-
ular seasons, and especially on Commence
ment days at the University, that the ex-
isting accommodations have been found
entirely inadequate to the demand The
prosperity of our place, then, seems to re-
quire a movement of this kind. The
travellers who throng our public thorough
fares during the summer seasons are most
ly gentlemen of affluence and leisure, who
either alone or with their families, are out
upon excursions of pleasure. They want
good accommodations, and unless these can
be furnished them, it matters not how many
other inducements town may hold out,
they will not stop there. They pass on,
to spend their time and money where their
desires have been anticipated and provided
for.
Here there is great ,oant-how this
want can be best supplied-the location,
plan and probable cost Of such an estab-
lishment; we leave to be determined by
the Report of the able Committee to which
the whole subject has been referred.
But there is one point which must be
distinctly understood before many of our
most wealthy and influential citizens can
think of giving it their support Werefer
to the question which is often asked, Is
this hotel to be conducted on temperance
principles or not? Now this is matter
that should be settled at once, for it is one
that very nearly concerns the character and
welfare of our town. And not only so,
but many from a distance, who are expcc-
ted to patronizc it, are deeply interested.
Parents who send their children here to be
educated would not for moment think Of
lodging them where they must be constant
ly exposed to temptation. This matter
was set in very strong light, by the clear,
condensed and truthful remarks of our
friend, James Aiken, before the meeting,
the other evening. These well written
and well timed remarks We hope to see in
print. The pernicious tendency Of fash
ionable tippling houses-the fountains of
all those streams of drunkenness and wo,
which desolate the homes and blight the
fairest prospects of thousands in our land,
was wildly portrayed. We hope, there
fore, that this point will be cleared up,
and that the intention of the movers in
this enterprise will be distinctly avowed,
for the satisfaction of MANY.

PoTAToEs.-Thc farmers in central
and western Massachusetts complain
that the potato rot has, in many locali-
ties, proved quite destructive. The po-
tatoes generally had the appearance of
health when first dug, and the ietId odor
arising from the cellar has often been
the first indication Of the disease.
Considerable quantities Of them have
in consequence been rendered worth
less.

quested by the Commissioner OF PEN

after he left the service but, If not q
widow when the law passed, the benefit

RAiLRoAps AND HoRsEs.-It has been
found by late census that, in conse-
ouence of the introduction of railroads,
,he number Of horses in England has
been reduced from 1890, 900 TO zoe, 900.

land to subsist one horse as It does to
