Hotels in st. Paul and in Minnesota.
The ST Louis Intelligenrer addresses an
Enquiry to the Pioneer, as to the character

respect, TO the large and increasing demands

which the charge is only 5, 90 per day, by
the day. OF course no house can be KEPT

lean, with few rooms aud scanty accommo-
s:aiions. OF common boarding houses, say
IL, IS 90 per week, we have plenty-and
/ VERY good ones Of their kind. The old
house formerly kept by Mr. Bass, opposite
sthe Minnesota Outfit, is about refitted now,
land will soon be open-perhaps in a fort
might. This, if well kept, will add about
sone-thrd to the present hotel accommoda-
stions. We learn also that the large brick
buildings up town, owned by Mr. Rice, are

THAT in about ten days, there will be four
hotels; AID we think strangers may I've pref

salso being built, a very large wooden build

Pos, Office, on the north end of the lots now
occupied Ivy the Central House. These
houses however, will not be in readiness for
'many weeks yet.
For three years, we have been trying to

Letter from j. ). RrcRea.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Is, 1852.
Editors Mississippidn
GENTLEMEN--I received last evening
the Flag OF the Union, containing a let
ter over the signature of III. s. Foote.
in which ] find the following remarks
relating to myself:
Whilst the people Of Mississippi
continue to have no representative in
the National Senate but Mr.. McRae,
who, judging from his late speeches in
that body, is resolved to do all he can
to cause the Union Democracy ofthe
State to be misunderstood by their bre-
thern elewhere," sc
Iwould not netice this remark at all
were it not that it carries with it the
implication Qhough merely expressive
ofthe opinion of Mr., Foote,) that in my
speech, to which he refers, it was my
purpose to misrepresent the position OF
what he terms the "Union Democracy
of the State" His statement, so far
as it conveysth the implication. is not true
Nor, in my judgement does my speech, re-
ferred to by him, misrepresent, or cause, in
any manner to be misunderstood, the position
of the Union party in Mississippi. Such
was not my intention. Imade no mention
whatever, Of what Mr.. Foote calls the
Union Democracy Of the State" There is
no such expression in my speech. The
number of Democrats composing in part,
the Onion organization in Mississippi, Is Sc
small compared with the great body, o
thatlorganization. that | have never thought
of it as a Democratic party, and certainly
have never mentioned it as such.
You will be pleased to publish this let
ter merely to keep the truth Of facts correct
ed in the history of the times. Very truly
yours, j. J. McRAE.

We soc several objections TO the bill. which

however is Of a very serious character, and
as IL Is In the power Of the Board Of Police

law imposes upon the Probate Clerk and
Sheriff much extra labor and makes no pro-
vision for their remuneration. The lsboref
is wothy Of his hire, and we see 70 sufici.

WM. s. PATTON.

ORIENTAL BEcGARs-The following ex'
tact from a late letter from Pompeii, will
show how feeble aud how uncertain are the
affairs Of man. The time once was, when
the streets OF that buried city were ,hrong
ed with millions Of the nobiest Of our race
moving IN all the marts Of business and Of
life. "Sun Of the morning, how arr thou
fallcn."
We walked into the garden and saw The
statues and fountains looking as fresh as il
the owner would soon return and all would
go on as before. IL was a strange and
thrilling picture Of the past, and as we came
out Of the door on the Mosaic pavement in
front OF the mansion. we looked through a
rent in an old wall aud saw Vesuvius spout
ing up fire and smoke. The only living &C.
cupants Of Pompeii, beside the guides, are
the beggars. A more heaven-forsaken set
Of wretches never before existed. There is
scarcely a uhOie man among them.
Some are blind, some are halt, but all are
miserable to n degree | never before con-
ceived possible. It is astonishing how lit
tie boeiy a beggar wants to thrive on. Give
a man his head ard never mind about the
rest OF the system. Beggars without arms
are crying out for aims at every turn in
Pompeii, and a pair Of good solid legs can-
not be found in the whole city. To-day ]
saw something in the road shutting toward
me, which | at first took for a game cock,
as it wore a red feather on the top of its
head, but on its nearer approach | discover
ed it to be a man cut off just below the
waistcoat pocket. 1t was a lively little
junk too, and ] doubt not but that | shall
NEE: the other half Of its body begging in
Herculaneum tomorrow on its own &C.
count. Perhaps the whole affair nm to-
gether once or twice a month, and has a
quiet little set down to divide the spolls
equally.
