THE LUXURY OF NEW YORK HOTELS AND THEIR TABLEs.-It is a matter of much in terest to those who visit New York to keep posted about the hotels. Recently there has been quite rivalry among the first class hotels about their bills of fare, each striving to set the best table for its guests. We speak more particularly of the hotels on Broadway and Fifth Avenue; the Grand Central being the largest, most centrally To- cated and elegantly furnished. Of the four or five leading hotels, the bills of-fare are covered with the names of the most luxuri- ant viands of the season. The bill of the Grand Central especially, deserves setting apart as notable specimen of modern cul- mary skill in the number, variety and rich ness of it's dishes. It contains no less than eleven CID courses for dinner, and gives the hours for no less than six (6) meals every day, for the moderate sum of from $3. to $4. per day, including of course an elegantly furnished room for each guest. It would seem from this that the tours of our travellers and the visits of our busint ss men become rounds of pleasure as well as of business
