A Lasge Hotel.—"lt-is not often/ says a Pennsylvanian correspondent, "that I puff" an hotel; but, when I pay my bill at the rate of four dollars a day for Bleeping in the ' milky way,' and feeding on a bill of fare, it's a privilege and pleasure to mention such an institution. The Ata« lanta, Ga., is the largest hotel, I presume, in the world. The halls are so long and winding that many waiters get lost, while going after a pitcher of water, and are never heard of until their remains are found years after. I went in one morning and ordered breakfast. A small coloured boy took my order, and it was so far out to the kitchen that he was grown and grey-headed when he got back. The hotel is a very large hotel, and everything about it is large, from the feet of the clerks and the mouths of the* waiters to the bUls. It is provided wilh all modern con* veniences, hot and cold water, bajr wiadows, idiots, dirty sheets, everything to make the traveller happy, including an undertaker's establishment for the accommodation of such boarders as starve to death while waiting for the waiters. Ifcis a very large hotel,, and everybody stops there just once.
