new and complete Gazetteer Of The Ua,tted STATES.
Edited by T. Baldwin and j. Thomas, M. d.
With new and superb map of the United States,
engraved on steel.
The publishers take pleasure in announcing the
completion of this, the most elaborate, compre-
hensive, and perfect Gazetteer Of the United
States that has ever issued from the press In its
preparation no considerations Of expense or labor
have been allowed TO interfere with work de-
signed to be as perfect possible in every de-
pertinent, and in all Of its detail Nor have the
successive issues Of other Gazetteers, hurried
through the press to claim the market, tempted
the publishers to offer their book before all the
ample census tof 1850 and other material in the
hands Of the editors were fully digested snd accu
rately arranged.
When the Gazetteer was first announced 500
pages, or at the most 900, were designed as the
limit Of the book. But so vast was the amount Of
matter, accumulated through the personal labors
of the editors and their assistants, as well as
through the active efforts Of several thousand cor
respondents in all parts Of the United States the
work has swelled to near 300 pages. The
amount Of new matter which il contains, all Of a
recent character, is very large, and in many IN
stances embracing statistics and populations to
1853. This gives Il an intrinsic value over every
other work Of the kind In existence.
We therefore offer our Gazetteer confidently, as
the only complete and thoroughly reliable Gaset-
teey Of fhe United Stdtes yet published.
As above stated, the work is now ready, and
will be published in December, 1853 Price TO
subscribers, SO so; TO non-subscrbers, 81

nice room. We don't want you. Go away,
mister!" exclaimed the indignant Jones.
We found hotel at last the identical Hotel
dItalie. Two men carried our valises there
from the cafe. Upon coming at the door,
they put the baggage down, and two other men
carried them up to the room.
All four stood in the room looking at us.
How much?" said to the men whom / had
hired
"a dollar said each.
Jones gave a loud chem" and, overcome by
emotion, sank into chair. stared at them
in unutterable astonishment. Yet, if their i'm
pudence was so inconceivable, what could
say to those who had carried our things up two
flights Of stairs, when they each demanded q
half dollarl
gave dollar for all. The man to whom /
offered it, threw it contemptuously away.
"Oh, very well, muttered, taking it up and
putting it quietly in my pocket Jones, ring
the bell!"
Jones did SO, and the waiter came up.
"Cameriere," said T.
"Signor?" he replied
"Turn those men OUT
"Sgnor?' said he
Turn these men out, or corps de Baccho
I'll have them all up before the police tomorrow
morning for swindling.'
The men all turned pale at the word poll
zia." They went out sullenly one by one, with
out anything for their labor. Oh, magic word,
"polizial" blessed the tyranny of Naples.
We walked down the Strada Nuovo that
evening among the gaily decorated throngs Of
people, among the laughing joyous crowd,
whose only aim seemed to be the pursuit Of
pleasure. What whirl of excitement along
the crowded streets what wonderful carriages
crowded with giddy men and women! What
occupations! what curiosities in the shop win
dowsl Can any place be like Naples?
Emerging from the throng Of people, we
walked down, far down, to the Villa Reale, and
amid the quiet groves inhabited by marble
fauns, and nymphs, we sat and gazed out upon
the glorious bay, now all golden with the beams
of the setting sun. The hills of Baioc-those
classic hills--were crowned with floods of gor-
geous light, as the sun went down behind them.
Soon the moon and ten thousand stars cleaned
from the deep blue sky. A thousand subdued
sounds arose from the city and the bay, and
placidly returning to the hotel, we sought rest
in slumber.
