The METROPOLITAN HoTEL.-New York
is half mad in the way Of building new
hotels, several having been finished with.
in the last year or two, and a numb err
more are now in course Of erection, The
Metropolitan hotel is one of the largest
and most magnificent establishments in
the country. We passed through this
house few weeks since, but before it was
entirely furnished, and observed that evc-
rything was being carried out in the most
costly, grand, and comfortable style. II
will be opened on the LIST of September, by
the Messrs. Leland, gentlemen we'll cal
culated for such an establishment. In
speaking of the Metropolitan, the Journal
OF Commerce says:
This huge establishment, after an ex-
penditure of $3.50, 900 and three years Of
constant labor, is on the point Of compile

the most gOrgeously furnished hotel Of
its size in existence. Magnificent mirrors,
costly upholstry and cabinet ware, choice
marbles and rich velvet carpeings, rem

hundred parlOrs, with bath rooms and
chambers attached, are richly oyerIaid
with velvet carpetings Of the most costly
kind, and Oyerhung with drapery Of a
design and shade corresponding with the
fresco paintings Of the walls, which In
no two apartments are the same. Be
sides these, there are about 200 gentle.
mems rooms, finished in a style but little
inferior, with hot aud cold baths, and
every other convenience. Allthe pTinci.

Caution TO LErrER, wR1rrRs.-.TE

CAUTION TO LETTER. WRIrERs.-.The
Supreme court of New Hampshire has
given a judicial exposition Of the law on
the subject Of love letters, by instructing
jury in recent case, that where a
written correspondence is kept up be-
tween an unmarried gentleman and an
unmarried young lady, of suitable age,
who is not his relative, the most common
and natural inference is, that it is upon
matrimonial subjects Young marriage
able ladies, at least prudent ones, do not
allow themselves to be engaged in a cor
respondence with unmarried men, unless
they suppose marriage contract existing
between them, And unmarried men do
not desire that such a correspondence
should be carried on where an engage
ment does not exist, unless it be from
some improper motives, or with the hope
and expectation of an ultimate engage
ment. If these instructions are to be ia
ken as law in other States, all sentiment
talittes, not looking to matrimonial con-
illusions, between unmarried persons. of
opposite sexes, will have to assume an
oral character

man The citizen-soldier Franklin Pierce,
knows no North no South. He recogni-
yes his obligations under the Constitution
and is ever ready to carry them out in
good faith. Whatever then, may be the
result of this canvass, it behooyes the
South, as one man, to rally to the support
of Pierce every Southern State should
cast her vote for him. Let this be done
and we verify believe it will do more to
put down sectionalism and slavery agita-
ton. than any and all things else that
could be done. The safety of your pro-
perty, the quiet of your hearth-stones, the
very existence of this blessed Union de-
ponds upon the silencing the demagogues
who would wage an eternal war upon
Southern institutions !. and the man who
viii not upon alloccasions boldly and firm
ly maintain the Constitution and the Laws
who will not speak out in season and
out of season. his opinions upon this, to
Southern men. the all important question,
is unworthy of their support and should
be discountenanced by them. Z" He who
is not for me, is against me-" Let the
watchword be" The Union ofthe South
for the sake of the Union" =

a LIE OUT SoMEwHERE.-We sometime
since published an account given of di-
alogue between Henry A. Wise and Mr..
Mapp, the Delegate from Accomac, by a
correspondent of the Baltimore Argus
In the dialogue Mr.. Mapp is made to say
that he heard John P. Hale, of New
Hampshire, say that che would head an
army to march against the South to put
down slavery" and that Gen. Pierce said
" if he did, he would first have to walk
over his (Pierce's) dead body, as he
would head an army to oppose him."
Mr. Hale has come out in letter de :
nying the truth of the whole statement,
and refers any who may be disposed to
doubt his denial, to Gen. Pierce himself.
The letter of Mr.. Hale placed Mr.. Mapp
in rather an awkward position. and he,
also, writes letter. in which he complains
that the conversation between Wise and
himself, was not fully reported but does
not deny that he made the statement impu-
ted to him; the only correction he makes
is this. He says it was about five years
ago that he heard Hale and Pierce speak,
and the article Of the Argus correspon-
dent. stated it as having occurred abou
two years ago. The affair" is between
Messrs. Hale and Mapp, and we don't
care which has 10 father it.
