THE GRAND CENTRAL HOTEL.

Among the most striking types of the pro.
gress of the age, is the development OF palatial
hotel enterprises. New York has just ushered
in a new triumph In this particular. The Grand
Central Hotel, situated on Broadway. midway
between the up town and down town notels,
rears its magnificent marble front ana sWal-
lows up almost an entire block. Only opened,
as it were, on yesterday, it has become airea9y
crowded with guests, from every part OF the
country. Asyou enter its magnificent portals
the brilliant coup d'oeil exceeds any thing yet
produced in this country or the world. one
becomes absolutely confused with the sur
rounding magniacence. 1t has to be seen TO
be appreciated The Grand Central bears
about tho same relation to other hrst-class no
tells as the Great Eastern did to other hrst-class
ocean steamers. With between one and TWO
hundred rooms more than any other hotel on
this continent, the Grand Central is the eolos-
sus of the age. In all the appointments, every
thing is fully up to the mark for hrst-class
New York city hotel. The carpets, furniture,
parlors, linen, and all the ct cetcT1, are gorge
Gus.
The genial proprietor, Mr.. Il. L. Powers, Of
hotel renown, whose remarkable admin1stfa-
tive qualities eminenty fit him ts preside over
this modern coliseum, and all his numerous
CORPS of assistants, are most attentive, polite
and kind, and appear TO run the vast eslao-
llShment with natural ease and system. a.
ready the Southern element is concentrating
at this house, where one is almost certain to
meet Will friends and acqCalntances Willionl
the trouble OF going around In the search TO
the other hotels. To enter upon minute de.
scriptlon of this new wonder OF the world
would be tatiguing, from the iEexhaustibillity
OF detail Suffice 10 say. that those who may
favor the Immense establishment with their
patronage. cannot fail 10 be pleased with The
genuine courtesy extended, and to retain
agreeable remembranccs oil the uniform anu
polits civiii;ies showered upon them. The
price 0! board at this hotel is exceedingly
moderate ranging from three to four dollars
per day, according to location OF room.

PENDLEToN, December &c.
I think I have not written line for our
paper since our Waterloo defeat at the late
elections. We were somewhat reconciled to
this defeat by the declarations and promises
of the opposite party Of reduction OF taxes and
retrsnchment generally. Have these promises
been corried out Not one. The powers that
be have not only not reduced fees, but have
created new offices and officers TO swallow up
additional taxes on the people. Thank God,
the negroes are feeling it up here to-day.
The collector said 10 me: II have collected
about one hundred and twenty dollars out OF
them to-day. and / will sell every id negro
out if he don't pay up" remarked, that's
brother Scott's work, boys. You did not ex-
pect them to make You pay tax, OF course.
One remarked to me: Mass George, think
I am too old 10 pay poll tax" think so,
too, Burnett, but it is said you voted the Re-
form ticket. hence SCOTS mirons are on you
as they have been on me 10 force me to pay
q tax three times on the same property.
But, Mr.. Editor, 1t is too late to quarrel.
They have got us on the hip, and will keep MS
there yet awhile, fear. Look at our young
friend Crittenden's resolution, supported by
all the Reform party, and how summarily dis
posed of by the cormorants in power. Would
it not be better for the people of the State, Mr..

The following complimentary notice Of Billiards.
Panarazna of New York city is extracted from
the Richmond State Journal:
..4Ne were in New York last night, starting at
eight o'clock, and returning by ten-the quickest
trip on record. We neither went in balloon, by
! Dunham's steamship line, by rail, nor by tele-
greph-and yet were there in propria persona an !
saw all that was worth seeing. This miracle
was performed by simply walking up to the cor
ner,of Third and Main streets, and taking seat
in St. Adams hall The magic wand of Profess
. sor Albert Norton waved gently; we felt q
slight rustle.of the air, and, presto, were in
the very heart Of the great American metropolis
the centre of the civilized world.
Of course, we were only there in spirit aad NY.
only present on canvass, but then it was SO
perfect, so true to nature so recognizable in ev-
erything, so New Yorkish, that we really mag
ined for two mortal hours we were "walking
down Broadway on midsummer morn. This
is one Of the largest and most perfect panoramas
that we have ever seen, if not one of the great
est works of art. Taken in connection with the
interesting lecture delivered by the exhibitor,
which was done in a mastery style, we have
rarely been present at more pleasing and in
structive exhibition. To form the least idea OF
the magnitude of New York, and all that in the
great city is, from her grand public schools, no
Bile churches, splendid hotels, and most pleasing
attractions down to the societies of her thieves
and rowdies, enc must see this panorama, and
heAr Mr.. Norton's lecture.

Progress.

Onward seems to be the watchword Of
our enterprizing people. They mean to take
no step backward. We are happy to state
that the spirit of enterprise which character
ised our town last year seems to have suffered
no abatement Before the spring has fairly
opened, we hear of number Of import
ant Improvements which are on foot. Al
ready, probably dozen costly brick build
ings are contracted for, or are in process of
being contracted for.
Our enterprsing fellow citizen Mr.. B. 7.
Bagby has already torn down the former resi-
dence of the late Dr. Addison Waddell, and
commenced the foundation of spacious and
elegant brick building with two large store
rooms on the ground floor and handsome

| When the sun his rays were shedding
Beaming, cleaning, fairly streaming
| through the trees;
And I watched the streamlet glistening,
| AS entranced there was listening,
| To the melting, merry music of the breeze,
| When beneath a tree reclining,
Where no ray of sun was shining,
| Lo! saw a fellow-being on the ground!
Though no other feature shifted,
| Quickly soon his eyes uplifted-
Upward lifted as he wildly looked around.
| "Good FRIEND" said | approaching,
"Do not charge me with encroaohing-

So left him there reclining,
Where no ray of was shining,
And frequently wondered at the words the man
did use;
Thinking surely twas mystery,
And that some hidden history
Was weaving round myself and Simons goods.
So then resolved to buy them;
Nay, felt compelled to try them.
And behold! I've cause for gadness
