Hotels—European and American'. Mr. Anthony: Trollope, in liis new work upon North 'America*, dees mot conceal the disquietude which settled upon his mind be cause the hotels in this country, were not the same, in all respects, to his own serai detached house in one oi the suburbs of his beloved London. An under-enrront of dislike and diisatisfactien flows through the book, finally swelling to a chapter upon this subject. - Mr. Trollope has travelled largely, it seems, and courteously communicates- his observations upon the comparative demerits of hotels in various countries. He evan believes, “in his pride, that he would himself'fill the position of a landlord with some chance of social suc cess,' though probably with none of satisfac tory pecuniary results.” Every person knows what a compliment'is conveyed in our five words “He can keep an hotel;” but, as we take it, the phrase ah>6 implies that no must manage so that the hotel will keep him. Much “ social success” can he achieved by giving turtle and venison, terrapin and campis-bick,' salmon and reed-birds, at the price of clams and chickens, pork and beans, porgies and poreh—but “it would not pay,” ana, there fore, Mr, Trollope’s ability rote of Boniface may birsafely questioned. The Swiss , hotels, he assures us* are the best of ail known to him—though they are a little close in the matter of cold water j restrict ing a man to a slop-b'-siu full for his ablu tions, and not being cheap nor always quite honest. The inns of the . Tyrol he re ports as very cheap, but abounding in ; stench and nastiness.' .In Italy lie fo.urnl the prices low and the accommodations good— the landlords having a tendency to cheat (of course, they could not often come oter such. a sharp fellow as liimsell), but cheating « with a grace that has been worth all the money.” The inns in Germany,-he reports, were not clean, with a great scarcity of water and oivi lify. The dearest, and certainly not the best, were the hotels of France. In the provinces, by no means so cleanly as those of Italy, with wines generally abominable, and cookery of ten disgusting. In Paris, grand dinners may he had, and riany luxuries—except the luxury of : comfort. Even their good coffee, he says, is a thing of the past, and he fancies that they import their own brandy from Eng'and and manufacture their own cigars. French wines, this hard-to-be-pleased gentleman adds, “.you may get good at a Paris hotel, but you would drink them as good, and much cheaper, if you bought them in London and took them with yon.” The worst hotels in the world, he rtellsus, are In Havana—“nothing:can beat them in filth', discomfort, habits of abomina tion, .and absence of everything which the traveller desires.” In the countries here mentioned the guests are expected to sit down together at one table; conversation is possible, and there is the show, if not the reality, ol society. . The same pre vails in America, but Mr. Trollope complains that our hotels are very much larger and more numerous than in other countries—because there-is more travel, and because there are many permanent, as well as transient guests we use this last word tinder protest, not being able to comprehend how people who pay for their board and lodging can he called guests, or the recipients of biapitality. Mr. Trollope objects to a great many things in our hotels. Ho commences with the terri ble suffering of writing his name iua book. “ This inscription,” ha sadly murmurs, “ was to me a moment of misery ivLich'l neVdr could go through witti equanimity.” He felt an noyed because the office clerk did not instan taneously tell him whether there was room for him. He objected to being unable to get a dressing-room as well as bed-room, and pro tests against the immensity of ladies’ parlors. He mentions, as an indication that we are not gnite devoid of civilization, that “ in the large Eastern towns baths are attached to many of • the rooms.” This ho evidently did not ex pect, for he adds that he always'earries his own bath with him, and never failed in getting wafer! The average price of our hotol living, which he rather highly estimates at §2.50 a diy, « co vers everything that is absolutely necessary, including servants.” Extra charges, which he admits a man may avoid, are higher than . in any other country which ho has visited: —" .hit were for an extra sitting-room; wine; washing, (“ fourpenco for everything washed ; a cambric handkerchief or muslin dress all come out at tbc same price,”) and so on. The extra sitting-room, however,-is inevitable in English hotels, where it is expected, also, that the traveller shall, order-a bottle of, wine at dinner “for the good, of the house,” and where, also, washing is charged for at the usual American rate, without being so neatly and exped’ilioualy executed. Of the honesty gene rally prevailing in American hotels, Mr. Trol lope speaks favorably :—the female servants he condemns as “uncivil, impudent, dirty, stow,” but believes that “they keep their hands from picking and stealing.’’ : ■ It was 3lr. Trollope’s misfortune, while at j American hotels, never to get any food that j was palatable.ln private houses he “dally j sat down to dinners'quite as good as any my own kitchen could afford me,” —but, in the hotels, eating was “ a disagreeable task, a painful labor.” Every thing he ordered came to him, he laments, swimming -in rivers of gTease. In a word, Mr. Trollope dislikes American, though it much , resembles French cookery, and the complaint comes cnriously froin a John Bull, Whose cuisine is the ridicule of foreigners,—of whom a witty Frenchman complained that he had two hundred religions and only one. sauce,—the' inevitable melted % butter, thickened with flour, and boiled down tp oil. Much: as he dislikes the American hotels—though his final confession is that “ they afloid an immense amount of accom modation, and for the orJinary purposes of a traveller are very cheap’t-iMr, clares that the Canadian hotels are infinitely worse. ■■ Be is candid, too, upon English inns, flunk- ing that Englishmen have no :great right to be proud of them, now that the old English way side inn lias been superseded by the gloomy, desolate, comfortless, and almost suicidal railway hotel.: In English hotels alone is still preserved the theory of solitary existence. There, the traveller has his breakfast alone, Ms dinner alone, his pint of - bad and dear wine alone, and his cup of tea alone. * His dinner is cooked lepafately for himself, and, tkore.- fore, cannot be good at the price, though that is high. /Be takes'it by himselt, at a. little table in a coffee-room, or in a private sitting- probably looking ’out upon a stable, in its old, faded, and dusty fur niture, Spaying from threo to five dollars a day exfra’for this melancholy cell of solitary con- with extras for fire and light.. The food, -Mr. Trollope tells us, “is never good, but it is usually and the wines are almost always bad—but you may pay for a bot tle, and fall back upon a pint of ale. The attendance is good, hut charged for in . the bill—besides whatever private pay ment is made to waiter, -chambermaid, and “ boots.” This charge, by the landlord, for servants, is ar rational and just as if he. were to put separate items in his : ill for rent, water, taxes, and so out j;f inally| Mr. Trol lope says, «An English Inn to a solitary tra veller-without employment is an embodiment of dreary desolation. The excuse to be made is that English men and -women do not live much at inns in their own country.” Would it not be strange if they did ? 'the potential Times is resolute, every au tumn, (when Parliament is not sitting, and: there may be afalling-off-in the usual mur ders, robberies, and suicides of the season,) in condemning .the present system of English hotels. A. few weeks ago it. declared that “ the want of a good hotel, conducted-on' .the AmSripan principle, for travellers in London,; probably losesto shopkeepers and tradesmen in * North Amorlcu. ■ By .

B. liippincott; & Co* ' y.OTla YAQ' r ''-i T JHT JJU' PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, JULY 3, 3862; tffiat city some hundreds of thousands yearly.” Mr. Fetridge, the latest American traveller who has treated on the subject,* enumerates hotels in London from the Clarendon, Lpug’S; and other West-end houses, where the cost of plain living varies from $5 to $lO a day, down to cily-hostelries, .whore a man may take plain meals in tbo corner of a coffee-room at the cost of $2.50. Bntthereis not yet a single hotel in London, like the Continental and the La Pierre, the Washington and the Merchants’,' whore a traveller can live respectably, cheap- •! ly, and well, at a ialr fixed price. At our ho tel-tables there is a greater variety of food, and of a better quality, tban the leading London houses supply at twice, thrice, or quadruple the cost. The improvements and comforts of modem times, with reasonable charges, are yet to be supplied in London. Sqcba house, as our own “ Continental,” conducted on the same system, wholly by Americans of expe rience and tact, would effect a social revolu tion in London in six months; • We notice that there is now a project to. raise $500,000, in shares, to .erect a great hotel in London, on the American principle. "The site, containing half an acre, is that now occupied by Lyon’s Inn, formerly a residence of law students, situated in the Slrand,_not. far from Somerset Bouse, The Temple, Lin coln’s InD, and the London and Southwestern Railway dnd the Mew Chariug-cross termini. As with our own Continental, part of the. ground floor.will be let off -as shops. “■ '“ The plans show,” we - quote-from the prospectus,- “ that the hotel will contain'.upwards of one hundred and eighty bed=iooms, besides coffee, dining, sitting,. smoking, and- billiard room's; also, a coffee-room for ladies and families re siding in the hotel. Many of the bed-rooms will be fitted up to serve as bed and sitting rooms after the manner of Continental hotels. The arrangements will combine all modem improvements, with fixed daily charges lo include, every expense. There, wiii-be tables d’hote at different hours of ,;the day, at‘ a ' moderate scale of. charges. Apartments will > be let, at prices varying with the different -floors—residence for fixed periods • being subject to. -specific terms—and every ef fort will bo made to give to travellers and visitors in London the.' comfort and privacy of home, , with superior hotel accommodations.” The sum of $500,000 appears inadequate to.» effect all this, but the Directors. declare that two-thirds of that amount will suffice, and that in their deed of : incorporation, -under the" Joint-stock-Compa nies Act, they will take power, to increase the • capital. They expect, from tiie profits which the existing joint stock hotels, in London have made, that ,thi3 new’speculation must realize .profits. of. at least fifteen totwenty per cent. . It is singular that, just at the time when M». Trollope’s book was undervaluing the advan tages of the American hotel system, his coun trymen should be making-energetic exertions, at some risk, to natnraiize.tliat system in Lon don. II cairied into effect,!t .will materially interfere -with Morley’s, Radiey’s, -and ■ the' other .West-end and city-hotels, which have heretofore made large profits out of Ameri can travellers.- If . .this .proposed .Strand Hotel were more westerly, by even as few as five or six blocks, its prospects of suc cess would bo more immediate. Suro are we, however, that a well-conducted Ame rican hotel in London mustultimately attract, not only American and Continental, but also the immense mass of English travellers, who are naturally disgusted with the extortions, ex pense, and discomfort of hotels kept on the ’ old and bad system. .

Towers of the Topographical Engineer Corps” (in ser vice duringnthe- Mexican oampaigh) has .been placed as our brlgadibr general, and other, minor changes have taken place not important to men tion. In my visit to Ball Run battle ground I was surprised to find it a most magnificent spot for con tending armies to moot upon. It i 3 nearly a year, since the painful history attached to this bloody field was still the .desolation, oc- • casioned by the conflict of the 21st July, IS6I, has not been removed. Prior to that date agricultural pursuits had made-.it a perfect 1 garden 1 scene,’ the ‘] land being of excellent quality and under good cul tivation. Now, it •is a- barren ; plain—fence less and.overgrown with grass. 0n all sides, it is skirted with a donso wood, the northwestern portion of which seems to have been visited by the sternest strife. Near this wood is where Sherm in’s battery (Union) was taken—the horses which had assisted in dragging, the battery over the plain, driving the enemy boforo it, had reached the wood just in time to receive tho charge of the Blaok- Borse Cavalry, and a pile of their bones, now ly ing where they fell, is a monument to the memory of the occasion. But the'horrors of the results of the fray are exhibited by the bones of our birave soldiers strewn around the fiotd! Here a trench,' wherein our troops were thrown and meagroly co vered, stretches over the ground they had endea vored, to wrenohfrom their foe. Individual graves ■ are numerous everywhere.';: Clothing, sueh as. coats and pants of blue used by our troops, is scat tered over: the surface of the . earth—in some ■lnstances, the bones of the owner still within its folds—and the trunk of a soldier I gazed upon, that had recently been torn from its grave by some ruthless hand, possessed me -with...horrible reflec tions, and,’turning from.the melancholy scene, ;I retracedmy steps to.camp,' pondering upon the ut ter want of humanity among our barbarous foe, and the want of appreciation of a bravo soldier after 1 ; “ shuffling off .this mortal, coil.” Pieces of car tridge boxes, bayonet; belting,; and other small utensils of an equipped;soldierJ,:iay about promis cuously. The trophy hunters had been over the spot in large numbers, and everything that could be used as a memento; had been secured. Prom the battle-field following Bull Run still remains the long rifle-pit, over, two miles in length, through which Petrolled on my return. qWith Glen. Pope at our head, we will no doubtbo beard from occasionally—quite refreshing, for it will let the mass know that there is a corps d’armce in Yirgininjworthy of note. To-morrow will be brigade'inspection, the entire division turn-' ing out in their best style. .. I must now go to work and “brightenup.” , J. T. H., 30th Regiment, P.

[Special Correspondence of The Press ] Nashville, Tenn.v Juno* 28,18G2. So engrossing and absorbing has been the interest and sympathy of the country for Bast Tennessee, that the western division of the State seems to have beon\Blmost overlooked. Wo have accounts from there of the most cheering character. The Union sentiment diffused among'thepeople, in those coun ties, has never been overooihe. During the regally gubernatoriarreign of Bham G. Harris, we fre quently had intelligence of the conduct obtaining in the western district, which gave uneasiness to the powers at Richmond snd'Nashvill e:. Proclamations glowed with of 11 sequestration,” ; of the prison and:of tbe scaffold; the press fulminated itg anathemas; and speakers grew hoarse in denuncia tions of the-mbn who could be guilty of'the heinous offence of .“disloyalty:to-the South.” All this, however,vonly seemed to suggest prudence and caution, and tountensify their 'feelings' r of patriotism. The moment there was an indication of the ap proach of the Federal arms there would bo in creased. and renewed demonstrations of sympathy with- the ; United btatea Government. Now, in several counties, .they feel .comparatively safe, and the Union flag-waves unmolested, the emblem of their loyalty and the object of their ftffeetions. - ' ‘ -ACYANCB -OP - IIUELI,. Yob have heard that General Buell is moving toward Chattanooga, with a force ample for the capture and occupation of that place. It is Jo East Tennessee the dawn of the day when she will be “ redeemed, regenerated, and disenthralled by the genius of” American Liberty. ' Permit mo to thank you for the article in TKs ; jPrtss, some days since, upon “fault-finding.” Let me arsure you that nothing so enoourages a per sistence in the rebellion as the complaints that tire too frequently made by the Northern press against military and politioal officers of the Government. : Our, Secessionists seize and. devour everything of the kind with'cormorant avidity.. They insist that, ;t a house divided against itself cannot stand,” and that the: rebellion will triumph, not by the power of its arms,- hilt by tho divisions of . its adversaries. You cannot conceive, how deeply, mortifying it is to the Union men of Tennessee'tolobserve the great readiness of Northern papers'&r ll fault-finding:” It is truly gratifying to notice the total absence, of aDy such complaints on tho part of our people here. Is a general unfortunate, wo deem it a misfortune: to ourselves and to the Government, and, instead -of pausing to oensure, regard it as a greater incen tive to' unity and unanimity. Is a general suc cessful, we say he is “ the right man:in the right place,and are inspired -with greater hope of a speedy triumph over the rebellion. To a person.who was here during the existence of the sway of the/ robots, the changes which have occurred in the sentiment of the people, in so short a time since, from- prejudice and passion to cool reason and true patriotism, are most astonishing. They are beginning to feel that their only salvation' ft'. under the constitution and the laws j; and that it. Is the intention of the Administration to execute thelaws. : , Our merchants are beginning fully to realize to what extent they oarried their folly and madness in tbis rebellion. The last season opened upon them without customers and without, goods. Their Northern debts have matured, and now come upon them, when what funds they have are depreciated from twenty-two to fifty.per sent.,, and the large debt, owing them, by the country; and which usually, constituted thoir principal means of discharging , -their , Northern liabilities,,. -com pletely fails them. Davidson is, perhaps, tho only county in the State where there,is a she-, riff, and there is no judge of any of the State courts; so that it is impossible to briug-sait, except before magistrates whose jurisdiction’is limited, on accounts, to two hundred and fifty dollars, and, on notes, to five hundred dollars. But even if, suits should be brought, judgment obtained and execu tion issued, there again would arise the question of currency. Silver, gsld, and- treasury motes are the only legal tender; and- they cannot be had except ’at the rates, indicated. The consequence is, there 'is not, perhaps, a merchant in the State but could he sued to insblvtnoy.; and tho moment Northern creditors begin to:itie, their-debtors! hero will be 'driven into assighments, mortgages, deeds of .trust, &cJ They ean avail themselves of the Federal Court te institute suit, hut the result will, be as I have stated ; becauso. both under tholawsof the "QnitedStatee and the State of-'i’ennessbe, debtors ■ have a right to prefer creditors.
