NEW HoTEL-The subject OF erecting fine
and suitable Hotel in the vicinity of Broad
street, TO accommodate the large travel daily
thronging to our city, is being quite busily
canvassed. There are enterprising men enough,
with means enough, interested peculiarly in
that locality to secure the success of such an
enterprise, if once undertaken. There is no
doubt that better location could be secured
more convenient to the Square, but because
there is not union enough among the capital
lists and property holders in that locality to go
ahead with a work so palFably necessary to
the prosperity Of the city, is no reason why
every body else should hold off Let US have
a hotel somewhere-no matter where. If one
Is erected South Of Broad street, it will be of
immense advantage 10 business in that locality.
