The ST. CHARLES OF ST.. ANTHoNY.-A CORES
pondent of the Democrat, Jeromus Jayhawk,
Esq, fellow Of Infinite wit and good taste, and
nothing about him to find fault with except his
accountable Loco Focoism, thus justly compli-
ments this popular hotel and its guardian
spirits" .l
DEAR COLONEL:-At the close of nv commu-
nicatl on in the Democrat of last week, l reaues-
tea you to write notice of the st. Charles Ho-
Vel, at ST. Anthony, upper town. but see that
the paper was SO crowded you had not room for
one. Now to show what great man can do
IN small village, for Mr. Clark is as great a
man in his line as ever knew will state that
his business increases so fast that he is Obliged
to enlarge the extent of his dominion although
one would judge from the numerous and we'll
furnished apartments which the house contains.
that he had plenty of room to flourish around
In already, and for many years to come 1t is
not so, however, but to make it so he intends
soon, TO build on the east side of the present
edlnce wing fifty feet wide by one hundred
deep, and on the west side another forty feet
"iae ana one hundred deep; which he thinks
VIII answer his purpose for few years and
then II he should want more room he will add
a story or two on the whole fabric l think he
shows good economy in this last intended move
ment in building upwards, because the land
over the top of the house will not cost him any
thing but that is neither here nor there.
The rooms in the proposed wings will be large
and airy, and of course well furnished; and the
house will then be sufficient to accommodate
two hundred dodgers. The new dining room
will be capable of accommodating seated at ia
ble with pIenty of elbOw-rOom, an indefinite
number of persons. This room will have high
ceiling and will he light and well ventilated.
He intends also to have baths on the premises,
which will form another feature of attraction;
when his ideas arc fully carried out he thinks
he will have house that any living white man
who knows hO,c to live, would be glad to stop
at either for long or short time. 1t is so no,r,
for when person goes there he wishes to stay
as long as possible; but Mr.. Clark means to
make it more so. The fact is he is so tasty that
nothing but first class house can lie kept by
him; and although he keeps one now, yet he
thinks he can improve it, and SO he is going to
enlarge and beatty the whole concern. Well,
success to him, and may he be able to find an
abundance of the good things with which he
feeds his guests: for he always has the very best
the market affords, and some things besides that
cannot lie raised on farm.
No one from these parts can get by the house
OH ride, without stopping, for the attraction
is so strong that stop he must; and therefore,
Colonel wish to offer for your consideration,
as they say in political meetings, the following
query:-are you ready for the question!
Why is Clark's Hotel at st. Anthony's Falls,
like a very bad looking counterfeit dollar:-
Because you can't pass it,
Yours. as ever,
JEROMUS JAYHAWK.

All along the line of the Cleveland and
Pittsburgh Railroad, the people of Ohio turned
out masse to welcome Gen. Scott as he pass
ed along. At Salem four thousand people
gathered. At Alliance was throng from Cam
ton. Wooster &C.. and speeches were made by
Gen. Larimer and others. At Ravena, Hudson,
Bedford and Newburgh crowds stopped the
way. Scott leads the column, and. as ever he
leads it to certain victory.
CRIME IN NEW YonK.-The Journal of Com
merce of Saturday, says that during the pre-
cedlng six days, there were eight cases of muir
der. homicide or deadly assault in the civ by
the knife, the pistol or brutal violence, and
three of the sufferers are already dead! A
gentleman was twice fired at in Broadway. yes
terday morning, at four O'Clock. and the bone
of his arm was badly shattered.
GEN. SCOTT's ROUTE-We understand from
gentleman just from Maysville, that Gen Scott
will leave that town on Tuesday, and proceed
to Paris. Bourbon county. to attend the aori
cultural fair there. He will then 90 to Ley
ington, and will probably reach Louisville on
Thursday. We may look for him here. then. on
Friday or Saturday. From this city his route
will be through Hamilton. Dayton &C.. to the
Lakes.
The reception given to General Scott at
Maysville was truly magnificent affair. The
town was brilliantly Illuminated; bonfires
piaZed along the hills the bells rang cannons
were fired and five or six thousand people as
sembled on the wharf to welcome the Old
Hero TO kentucky.-Cin. Gag.
BTsHoP CHAsE.-This eminent and valuable
prelate died ut Jubilee OIL Monday last. The
sad intelligence will awaken a profound sensu
ton on both sides of the Atlantic. Bishop
Chase established, we believe, the first Protest.
ant Episcopal Church west of the mountains
this was at New Orleans-how many owe their
origin to his untiring energy. we cannot now
state but few men, however, have been 30 ac
tive in the establishment of religious and litera-
ry institutions in the great west. The founder
of three colleges-Ohio. Michigan and Illinois
owe him their profOundest gratitude. His life
will be the history of the church in the West
and remain to be written. We leave it to ADLER
nands to pronounce his eulOgy His talents
were eminently practical and the energy of
his will would have placed him in the foremost
rank of any profession. Such men invariably
make enemies, they however attach warmly
many friends. Bishop Chases friendships were
in every State of the Union and in every mart
OF Great Britain. He has been unwearied in
his Masters service-he has gone to his reward

The New York Mirror says the sunny climes
OF Italy are becoming very attractive to our
American ladies. Private letters from Europe
state that quite number of ladies from the
United States-now in London and Paris-in-

nouncement has had its effect. A large num-
