TIE CITY HOTEL, n. ORLEANS -
Often has it been our pleasing task
to direct the attention of our readers
to this excellent house; but we have
never published one word concerning
it which was not strictly true. Hav-
ing recently enjoyed its many col-
forts, we will give our readers short
description Of the City and its many
advantages over all competitors:
1t is pleasantly situated at the cor
ner of two of the principal streets,
Common and Camp; its commodious
verandahs, long, wide and airy, e.
tend around the entire front of the
building, attording a view of those
streets, stretching far beyond the
scope of the eye; here can be seen the
business life Of the great mart, includ-
ing men Of all nations.
Next in point of attraction, is the
great variety Of edibles; the beasts
of the forest, the fishes of the sea and
the birds of the air are here served
mp in style that would do honor to
Delmonico--it would seem that Mr.
Morse, the "prince Of landlords" had
endeavored to "reider the resources
of heaven and earth tributary to-
the larder Of his house. The kitchen
department is unsurpassed for COM
fort and neatnesS; we walked through
a long range of stoves, dishes and
tables, and saw nothing to excite the
criticism Of the most tidy housekeeper.
The rooms are large, well furnished,
and comfortable, every guest having
one to himself. Speaking of rooms
reminds us Of the only deficiency in
the apparatus of this house; je., that

fort of guests, we have an idea that
the above mentioned gent will not
long have the pleasure of Judging
bed time for weary travellers. But |
our readers need not fear being an
noyed by such treatment, for we have
never seen more polite gentleman
than Mr.. McDermot, the head clerk.
Another great fixture ofthis house,
is cur esteemed friend, Col. Dustan,
who kindly offered to conduct us
around the city and aid us in "see-
ing the elephant" After thorough |
examination Of this house and its
competitors we do not hesitate to

LITTLE THINGS AND LITTLE PEO-
PLE.-Little thiL gs and little people
have often brought great things to
pass. The large world in which we
exist is made up Of little particles as
small as the sands Of the sea-shore.
The vast sea is composed of small
drops of water. The little busy bees,
how much honey do they gather :
DO not be discouraged because you
are little. A little star shines in the
sky brightly in dark night, and
may be the means of saving many a
poor sailor from shipwreck and a
little Christian may do a great deal
of good if he or she will try. There
is nothing like trying.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2j.-There is
intense excitement in political circles
here. in expectation that the Judicial
~ Committee will report to-day in
favor of the impeachment of the
President. The purpose of the Radi-

fully and even bitterly declared with
in the past day or two, that the most
incredulous regard a serious move
ment towards the indictment of the
President as a settled part of the
Radical programme of proceedings.

and the cures affected by his medicines have been
very numerous and truly wonderful. DR.. ScHEScK
