NEW YORK HOTEL,

NEW YORK ITY, U. s.
MY DEAR FRIEND: We have just ar
rived afte: soorm.' passage, and l write
to aivise yo1 of tas, accor ling to promise,
but l ca do little more at present than give
you tins informatio Kate lid not suffer
from nal de mar; it turned out thai was
the worse sailor of the two. If we should
only fad that all IS we'll we shall have
very happy time. l need not tell y on that
KITE Is the dearest, sweet EST girl in the
world. You know that; Wvedale knows
it; every bo1y knows it. The sea air and
the change have lone her good. Sometimes
during the voFa,e she seemed to for ret all
her gloom foreboings She mad, friends
with NEST agreeable American family
.lvIn5 III the Fifth avenue athsr, mother,
two daughters AMI son, very nice young
peopl, all OF them, father ana mother as
young as the rest and they have invited
Us TO dinner. Tho weather is exceedingly
hot, AMI New York is almost like contin-
entail city. / think we sha.l like the Amer
leans " hicn will be quit, in keeping with
nv business experience of them gaine1 in
Manchester though 1 know you are pre-
judic,d on account of the slave business;
but every nation has its peculiar inst:tu-
tons, al1 after all we En- ,iish endowed
the states with this one, to which you and
all OF u now so mucl objact. 1t is like
me, you will say, TO leave what may seem
the bal news of my letter to the las. Jos
is not here, AMI now 1 am sorry Kate did
not let mo writ, mail ahea1 of us to say
we were coming. He left week ago, for
the west they taiak, or for one of the sum-
mer resorts, the hotel people don't know
which. They believe he went west as he
made some inquiries as to the route to
Chicago, and ta4ke1 OF going back to Eng
land by way Of San francisco AMI japan,
which means a tremendous journey, and
dangerous one, across the plains Kate
bears up we'll under this news, which, unless
1t is explained tomorrow by the lawyers in
re the Norbury property business, is rather
extraordinary. | wish we had written to
him; but sufficient for thu day. The best
news is that we have arrived safe and well
Kate far better than when VIZ sailed:
that this hotel seams very comfortable, thu
people civil; and let US hope that Kate's
strange AMI curious fancles will be dissi.
pated tomorrow. If there Is time to put
postscript to this letter before the mail
goes in the rorning | shall adj it with the
latest nsws Of Joe that can be got With
our united loves, / an your true and affec-
tionats DICK.
''P. S. Just time to sa7 have seen the
lawyers; they had written to Kate week
ago, AMI inclose copy of their letter"
