| MessrS. Edtors In my first letter ] gave
brief account of my voyage from New York to
Liverpool. Now propose TO speak Of my journey
another part OF the kingdom. As soon we
| had landed and passed the scrutiny Of the custom
house. we were glad to make our way to one OF
| the nearest hotels that we might there rest
awhile from the fatigues Of the voyage, and, II

head, that nausea Of the stomach, and that I'M
steadiness Of the limbs, which had been brought
on by the protracted and unnatural motion to
| which we had been subjected during the ten pre-
cedinp weary davs. particular hotel had been
| recommended to lis by n friend who had had much
experience in travelling between New York and
| England He described the house as one that
was comfortable in its arrangements. and Mt the
| same time very reasonable in its charges, and as
it was not far from the place Mt which we landed

place of rest for few DAYS at least but we were
sadly disappointed in our expecta:ions-our own
experience soon told us that our kind friends
estimate of the house was altogether too favor
able-and that in respect to both the particulars
which he had specified As the result Of this dis
covery we made up our minds to auit It as soon
| ~ possible but at the same time we deemed 1t
advisable to remain there over the Sabbath, and
to make the best OF such accommodations as we had.
