There is n blaze of gold carvings, fine mar

and silver plate. Flowers and plants there
are. in profusion, and every surrounding il
that of luxury and wealth. TIL dining room
lisa great court, rooted with paneled cary
ings of gold and white, and with tiers Of wide
galleries looking out upon it and rising one
above another. 1t is as large as a good sized
theatre and in decoration does not look unlike
one of the best of theatres. The band is in
one of the galleries. It is an excellent
one n it renders the finest music
during the dinner hours, which last from
$3.50 p. M. to $3.50 p. m, The dinner is a table
dh6te, and it takes about one hour to go
through its various courses. Between 500
and 900 people, / judge, were dining in it
when took my last dinner there, and the
crowd was o well dressed and fashionable one.
Each party had a table I'd itself, and many
ladies' were among the number. This dinner
costs three shiilings and six pence and three
pehce for the waiter, which is included in the
bill. This makes a total charge of eighty
seven cents for a fine concert and an excellent
dinner, which you viii agree is not dear.
This does not, however, include wine, and es
every one drinks hare, che dinner amounts
to as much more as the drinking tastes Of
the diner demands.
The dinner from the joint is a f~avorite meal
with Londoners. 1t consists Of soup and a
cut of roast beef, lamb, or veal, with yeee.
tables and cheese. The Albion, Simpsons,
the Rainbow and others are among the old.
fashioned English restaurants OF this stylf.
AT Simpsons I have had many a good
saddle of mutton, and I like tho way it is
brought to the table. A table on rollers with
a fire burning upon it, and over this the great
platter on which rests a big roast OF fish, is
rolled up to your table, and a cook dressed all
in wEite cuts off the smoking slice before your
eyes and lays it freshly cut upon your plate.
A good dinner from tho joint costs about
seventy-fve cents, and for this you get
all the meat and vegetables you can
eat. 1t is the dinner for a hungry man
or a DR., Tanner. The quality is good
and the quantity is unlimited, as YOU
can repeat your order ad libitnm without in
crease of price.

The popular line of steamers, the
Flora and the Atlantic, will run as
usual this season. from Cleveland, To-
ledo and Detroit to Mackinac, Alpena
and way ports, leaving from Ashley
& Mitchells wharf at the foot of First
street. Capt. S. B. Grummond, the
owner Of the above steamers, has dur
ing the past winter bestowed more
than the usual care in repairing and
thoroughly overhauling them, en-
ploying large number of men dur
ing the whole winter.
The propeller Atlantic received a
new cylinder with sliding valves, rid
ing cutoff, and all modern improve
ments, new smoke-stack, new decks,
etc., at an expense of about $4,000.
The steamer Flora, new main deck,
new wheels, and repairs to engine.
Both steamers have been newly and
handsomely painted, the cabins well
renovated and newly furnished, and
made as comfortable as possible.
Capts. j. II. Jones and w. E.
Conner, will again command these
steamers, the same as last season.
The other officers will be as follows:
Steamer Atlantic.-Clerk, Joseph
King; Steward, John Mulligan /;
First Mate John Kenyon; First En-
gineer, Geo. L. Simmons.
Steamer Flora-Clerk, John Por-
teous; Steward, VIM. Thorpe; First
Mate, VIM. Smith; First Engineer,

These boats will start as soon as
navigation opens, and be the first to
reach Alpena and Mackinac. Capt.

ed in the study of geology, I asked
the privilege of visiting the works
and examining the different strata
passed through during the process.

description, let it suffice to say that it
was similar to that passed through at

was struck, one hundred and fifty

the salt strata rests was reached, Civ

the failure at Alpenai Think 10 this
wise, II ! am correctly informed, the
gent who done the boring here, was
from the oil region, there when oil
is struck they cease boring, using the
