ENGLISH FASHIONABLE RFsORT.-
Perhaps it is in consequence of the

SKETCH OF THE RAILROAD KING.%
A chicago correspondent of the st
louis Times says: Com. Vanderbilt,
the famous railroad King, paid q fly
ing visit to Chicago last week, being
| believe, his first visit to these parts.
The Commodore is a decrepid old
man; his harris rs white as snow; he
is palsied by age; his hands tremble
like an aspen, and, altogether, he pre-
sents the most pititible spectacle of a
once strong and robust man shOrn
of his strength and weighted down
by bodily infirmitieS. Evidently his
lease of life has not many more years
To run. We have it on the authority
of 44ar.l Twain the humOrist. that
Vanderbilt never performed OnenanIs
action in all his life. Whether the
facts VIII authenticate the truth Of
Marks assertion, / am u%nprepared to
say. But it is certain that his two

the debt side gained ut least one en-
try. The Commodore, belt kAoNn,is
very stylish, if not aristOcraue in his
tastes and feelings. He is partial to
good dinners and good wines. AT the
same time he is not unmindfuI of the
value of gTeenbacks. And Thereby
hangs a tale" Prior to his arrival
here, the COmmoGre autographed to {
prominent hotel-keep9 to have apart

At the depot, however, Vanderbilt
encountered q messenger from a rival

to partake Of the Inequalities of his
house gratis. 1t IS unnecessary to say
that the invitation was accepted with
llacrity. Some tall swearing was in
