I found I knew not what a good herring was until, I feasted on a fat one, fresh from the heather-scented locks of old Scotia. No wonder a successful Londoner longs to grasp the envied position of an Alderman, so that his turbot exis- tence nuiy commence; the whole thing M'as made clear to me. There is less glitter in the large hotels beyond the sea, than in those on our side, perhaps more comfort; no where did I see anything to came up for si)leudor with our " Windsor.

It includes a vast hall capaljle of seating 3,000 ])ersons, a spacious ])romenade, a jtrcftty theatre, a restaurant, billiard, reading and reception rooms.
