HOTEL lNTELLIGENcE.-N has been announced
in various quarters that the Messrs. Howards who
have established the hotel so extensively and "a
vorably known "a Howard's Hote,'' in. Broad
way, have disposed of that establishment to Capt
Roe, ofthe "Empire" steamboat, and Mr. Thomas.
1t is also stated that the purchase was made for
$50,000 The gentlemen who have thus become
the proprieters very competent to undertake the
task OF keeping this hotel in the same excellent
style for which it has been celebrated under the
regime Of the Howards. Captain Roe is well
known to the travelling public for his gentemanly
demeanor, capacity, rand skill Mr. Thomas, also
OF Albany, is equally well known, and no doubt
will contribute his full share in keeping up e;cha.
racter of the house.


As for the Howards, we are glad that they have
done well in short time. We presume be-
ing relieved now from the labor Of keeping such
large establishment, they will retire to some of
those beautiful retreats with which their native
State, Vermont, abounds and where could they
find more attractive spot than some one of those
delightful places in the neishborhood of Burling-
ton on Lake Champlain!


So much Tor this hotel We also understand that
the new hotel on the French plan which has been
in process Of erection for some time past in the
upper part OF Broadway, is TO be opened in Novem-
ber, and that 1t will be kept by young gentleman,
pupil of the famous Cozzens of the "American, -
and now one of the "native" Aldermen of this
city II we may Judge Of the pupil from the capa.
city OF his Instructor, we cannot doubt that his
house will be well kept But he will require, as the
house is to be kept on the French plan the aid of
some one well acquainted with the mode of con-
ducting hotels in Paris


Great preparations are also making in Washing.

sary. During the last few years Gadsby's HOTEL %
as IT has been called, has been kept in the most
bungllDg and wretched style. Nobody can imagine
a more wretched place than "Gadsby's" under the
old regime, particularly since old Mr. Gadsby lett
it, We are therefore glad to learn that Mr. Cole
man, formerly Of the Astor House in this city, has
undertaken the reformation of that house, and that
it will be kept hereafter in such excellent style as
to secure the appreciation Of all christians and gen
tlemep who may stop there. Mr. Coleman takes
with him to Washington a very high and we'll

there and introduce new era in bookkeeping in
the city Of magnificent distances.


we also understand that certain parties, in this

ness, intend erecting splendid hotel in the course
OF year or so, which will eclipse all those at pre-
