The amount Of money spent at the
Capitol for hotel boarding or Mt house
keeping is astonishing, as viii be seen
by the following extract from Wash
ington letter;
Senator Cameron and his wife board
at the Arlington Hotel, aud pay $3.50
per month, very small sum for Sena-
tor. Senator Feuton, who stops at the
same place, pays $1,000 a month. Lit.
tic s. 5. Cox, the biggest Democrat iu
the House, pays $1,000 per month, aud
the other evening he gave $500 din.
Der at his boarding house. How long
will o members salary last al this rate !!
Mr. Huntington, the Cashier Of the first
National Bank, gave dinner to the
JaPs, where there we're twenty persons
present At $50 per plate, or in the aggre.
gate $1,000. Dr. Hembold, Of Buchu
notoriety, was here for two weeks, and
paid 500 per day for board and lodging.
A parlor and chamber IN the second
story of a first class hotel here, rents
for $3.50 per week, or $1,000 per month.
Many Of the Senators aud members who
keep house live much more extrava.
gantly. Senator Chandler lives at the
rate Of $50, 900 per year, aud General
Butler spends four times his salary as
a member One Of the colored members
pays at the rate Of $3.50 per week, and
another's expenses are probably as great.
The other three colored members goit on
the economical plan, say $500 per month.
BY the way, we are promised new hotel
here to cost at least one million Of dol
lars, to be the largest hotel ID the couu-
try, aud TO be near The Capitol. The
proprietor Of the Arlington says it win
pay, aud with his experience he ought
to know.
