LONDON HoTELs.-Mr. Jennings's last
London letter to the New York World pic
lures some Of the miserieS American So
journers in the English metropolis have to
endure on account OF the poor hotels to be
found there. Such thing as a good and
cheap hotel, he tells us, does not exist in
London, and it is doubtful If good hotel
can be found there ut any price. How 1t Is
that London, which is visited by so many
thousands OF strangers every day, should
he so badly supplied with accommodation
for travellers Mr.. Jennings is unable to
make out. But that it is about the worst
of all the large cities Of the world for
stranger to get into thousands who have
suffered from the eNactions OF London
hotels and lodging-house keepers can sor-
rowfully attest. The worst OF it IS that In
none Of these hotels do you get the same
comforts that are accessible to everybody In
American hotels. Four-pence for dup OF
two of ink is too high price. A bit OF ice
as big rs walnut, which almost melted
away before you could capture it and put IL
in the tumbler, cost three-pence. You can
not wink without being charged for it.
There is seldom q reading-room for the con-
venience of guests; in the cotfee-room there
is one CODY OF the Times taken, and ii you
ask for it the waiter invariably tells you it is
sin and" II you call for soda-water it il
given to you nearly warm. The resources
Of the table are extremely limited. At tbreak-
fast the waiter will offer you "'am and
heggs," and the wretched creature will
90 on doing so with an unblushing counte-
nance, day after day, for weeks together;
Ask him what soup there is for dinner, and
he will reply "hox-tail"; nor has it ever
entered into his mind that human ingenuity
has at length succeeded in concocting one
or two other descriptions OF soup quite tit
for human food. Suggest anything new to
him, and he looks upon you with uncon-
cealed disgust, as If you were a hairy man
just escaped from the iunges. II you have
q sponge bath in your room it is charged
for extra. The water is SO hard you cannot
wash yourself with it. And whatever may
be the charges for attendance in the bill,
the chambermaid, boots, and waiter will oil
waylay you for more on the stairs as you
depart, and frightful will be their looks and
very disparaging their remarks il you send
them empty away. 44ss.

/, Our CoHoSER.-Dr. Taylor, City Coroner,
IS tired looking for dead bodies upon which

the pupils OF the class Of natural science. He
proposes to show them the macadamized
turnpikes in the moon. II he cannot do it,
we would like to know who can.

AN APPEAL AGAINST WATERhELoN-VEN-

"R1cHNoND, August 4, 1876.
"Messrs. Editors: In our misery we ap-

or law forbidding the awful noises that

VIRGINIA AS VIEWED ACR0ss THE Waters.
We hive received from our young towns
man Lucien B. Tatum, who is travelling In
Europe, q copy Of u Illustration Uniuer-
Eselle, in which there are several views from
Virginia, together with very good sketch
Of the State by Captain Beiard, Of the
French navy, from which we extract the
following:
fWith what Eclat did Virginia first show
her ascendancy in the war for independence
history repeats it on all occasions. It was
There that the first war-cry started. Most
all OF the chiefs Of the Revolution-Wa FASH
ington, Randolph, Lee, Mason, Jefferson,
Patrick Henry-were Virginians. Marshall,
president Of the Supreme Court Of the
United States. who gave the first construc-
ton Of the Democratic Federal Constitu-
tion; Madison, Monroe, Harrison, Tyler,
Taylor, who successfully, like Washington
and jefferson, occupied the position OF
Chief iMugistrat,re' Of State, were also
Virginians. Henry Clay, the great orator ;
General Scott, the conqueror of Mexico
Generals Robert T.. Lee and Jackson, called
Stonewal or the 'nur de pierTS'-the two
heroes OF the war OF secession under the
southern banner, were Virginians as well" !"
The sketches are very faithful and the de-
scriptions very graphic. We are glad that
old Virginia is commanding attention
abroad. We have State for people to come
to, and the acknowledgment Of this fact
will prove gratifying to many OF the best
people on this mundane sphere.

A RICHMOND FIRM AT TUE CENTENNIAL.
Turpin g. Brothers (among the oldest manu-.
facturers in Richmond) make an exhibit OF
gold-bars, bright and mahogany pounds,
cable twist, and other black and bright
work, OF which the least that can be said is
that they are all good, well sustaining their
own name as old and reliable manufacturers,
and also the prestige Of the old State for
first-cass work both in quality and finish.

ADVENTURES OF A HORSE THAT Is NOT
DooIED TO BE DRowNED.-During the Ie-
cent storm which visited this city i horse
belonging to Messrs. j. E. Hanger & Co.
was hitched in Shockoe creek, near the
Chesapeake and Ohio depot. He had been
placed there to cool off. The storm came
up suddenly and with great force, the
creek rose rapidly, and the horse was
borne down the stream irresistibly. He
was carried under the arches under
Shocks old warehouse (now occu.
pied by Captain Samuel McCubbin, chief
Of the Greek Nation), Franklin, Main, and
Cary streets, and finally into the river. Lis
owners gave him up as lost as they saw him
disappear under the Union-street arch.
They were very much astonished yesterday
morning when the horse was brought back
by farmer, who had taken him up on the
road. 1t appears that he had swan ashore
from the river, and-after cavorting about
the country in a terrified state, in conse-
quence of the storm, he was picked up by
an honest granger, who, after three weeks
search, found his owner.
