The people Of the United States are very sensible
people They show their good sense in hundred dfer-
ent ways Let us look at it in one particular point Of
view. Whenever wherever travels in the United
States, whether by steamboat, coach railroad mat
ters arranged that the interests Of the travelling
vehicles and those Of the Hotel keepers clash or
in contact Consequently the various proprietors
live together in harmony and work into each others
hands. Hudson River steamboat leaves New York in
the evening just after the passengers have dined or
taken their evening meal at their hotels The vessel
rives Albany Troy in the morning, sufficiently
early to allow the passengers plenty OF time to attend
with their baggage at the railroad and take their
breakfast at their hotels At the places along the line
Of the railroad it is arranged at Utica, Syracuse
Rochester Lockport, Buffalo &c. that sufficient stop
page is made to allow passengers to take their meals
tie money in the they pass through disposed
And when the passengers arrive a shipping port such
Oswego Rochester there again the steamboats, and
hotels in harmony for the passengers embark
until they have taken meal at least In the town.
How different is the state of things in Canada in Wes
tern Canada at least. Here apparently, the propre
tors Of steamboats, consider it their duty to guard
the they carry against the possible contin
touch at than their safe and speedy conveyance.
And why! Net outof sefnterest nature but out Of
sheer indifference The steamers leave Toronto for
Kingston in the middle of the day but at such early
hour that except in few instances the
ston 1t is contrved that the passengers barely
time to shift into the river boat where they breakfast
Thus the hotel keepers Of both Toronto and Kingston
derauded OF the exercise Of their legitimate calling
When the Montreal boat arrives at Kingston, 1t s ut
such hour there barely time to shift into the Toron





spending farthing for dinner And without entering
into particulars nearly the complaint may be made
with the arrangement Of the Bay of Quinte steamers
at least with those of the day boats


1t is very true that the interests of hotel
vastly inferior to those Of the public at large and
quenty If 1t be shown that the public better
served by the present mode of conducting the travelling
business than by adopting that Of the United States of
course all complaints fall to the ground But this
deny No travelling this continent is expeditions
as that in the State Of New York. And yet We have
shown how amicably the steamboats, and hotels in
harmony. No in that State complains Of detention
the road vexatieus taxation at their hotel All
travellers have little matter either Of pleasure
business to attend to- in nearly every large town they
touch and in addition to the excitement of stretching
their legs for few minutes and taking their meals in
comfortable and clean hotel, instead Of heated and
crowded cabin they would consider it real privilege,
could stay be made sufficiently long to enable them to
accomplish It, Another important consideration is the
folowingthc public great gamers by the keeping OF
clean and handsome hotels which only be done by
the patronage the public Now If the hotel business
be ruined that business In Kingston, the public
will be the losers in the end In the above have said
nothing of the people generally Of Kingston who al
equal losers by the present arrangement Of things
Instead of all gaining less by the influx Of ira
velcrs it is of consequence to them steamer
brings up down a hundred passengers than II she
brought so many barrels OF flour
