,spoils of office in order to prcserve it.
they prefer to let it slide.
These lovers of the Union are lit

the best cure for the palpitation

he cried. 81, for one, say, let 'er pal

1ETHEN completed, six years ago, the ST.
w NICHOLAS was universally pronounced
the most magnificent, convenient, and thoroughly
organized establishment Of the kind on this con
tinent. What it was then, it remains ts-dsy-
without rival in size, in sumptuousness, and in
the general elements Of comfort and enjoyment.
The Hotel has accommodations for 1000 guests,
including 100 complete suites of apartments for
families Six hundred persons can be comforts-
bly, seated at the tables Of its three public dinin
rooms, and nothing that modern art has devised
for the convenience and social qualification of the
travelling public has been omitted in its plan, or
is neglected in its practical details. The early
reputation of the house at home and abroad, deri-
we'd from its magnitude, its superb appointments,
and its homo like comforts and luxuriss, has been
enhanced every year by the unwesried exertlons

EXPENSIVE LrxuRIEs.-The arms manu-.
factured by the State and put into the hands
OF her volunteers and militia, are not the
least costly of the luxuries in which tho
good old mother of Presidents" indulges.
Wealude, of course, to the old flint lock
muskets, and other arms issued some years
since. When thecaptain ofa volunteer com.
pany gets arms from the State, he gives bis
bond for their safe return, and the indiyldu.
al members of the company, in return, exc.
cute their bond for the safe return of the arm
entrusted to their cuetody. Very few arms
used to be returned afterwards when compa-
nies disbanded. as they frequently did. The
loss to the State by this neglect, if eummed
up in figures, would startle the people. Tn.
der the system Of Brigade inspection in fhe
new militia law, the abuses Of the old syst, IN
have been done away with. The arms Of the
new pattern will either be returned to the
State Armorer or duly accounted for, Oh the
disbanding of companies now existing. In
truth, it will be to the interest Of the volnn-
teers to return them. for they will have to
pay their assessed value if they fail to do so.
