Lst year, an act was passed, for a State

those named ia Mr. Hillman's letter, (as
copied below,) if such bid tbould be
i.flered, and, if none such were obtaiued,
providing that no further proceedings to
open the road should be had for one year,
thus affording time for a repeal at next
session. Senator J.ihriS'm said :

The Hotel here struck us a being
rather odd for such a beautiful and ricb
country. Tbe best of them are generally
destitute of carpets, and havo a remarka
ble paucity of chairs, table, wash-stands,

before retiring, i to go in to some neigh
boring, uninhabited room, and procure Ihe
necessary towel, wash bowels, &t-, giving
sly laugh to himself at tbe anticipated
growling of tbe occupant when be comes
to claim bis own. Batf as every body
did it, and every body expected it to be
done, we get along peaceably. Tbey have
little enpola no the top, io wbieb there
ie big hell, with rope coming into tbe
j ball, which is need to oall 8 (errant, and
I is rung twice for meals. We occupied,

j the old "Kentucky Hotel," which was
perfcot labyrinth of rooms, and reminded
I you of the descriptions you read of in Far-
j ton' life of Jackson. Nearly a whole
foulest place 1 have met with : an odor
strong enough ,0 overset a wel! person
ome out of it when we opened the door.
; With this exception, we have a high opin-
ion of Mt. Sterling, of its hospitable peo-
I pie, and of the country. The town is in
a little valley, and the slopes or the u.lia

There is a good Court House
hr. hut thn T ill is a d sirraea. Perhana

, crime is so rare that the people think the
I . . . . .. .. .
i odd straggler that caiamita it is deaerviog
of the worst treatment. It struck me, too,
j ---
j that perbspj the people are ao hospitable,
so accustomed to looking to their own
... . f
homes and the houses of their friends, for
i rest and comfort, that they come to regard
the Hotel as a mere stopping place. Cer
tainly, Ihe requirements of the people give
character to tho hotels of a country.
On the bite of this Court House, stood
an old log Court House which witnessed
the maideu tff rts of Henry Clay, and bis
"silvery tones" were beard last addressiog
a Jury in this one. Oa the walls are
portraits of their Judges and Lawyers,
Garrett Davis, Dr. Hood, and others.
I notice, nobody is addressed as "Mis

"Ho! Captain," with a peculiar intonation
of Ihe voice whhb I can't illustrate.
Could you give liuff!e Valley a wide
extent hundreds of miles, say with its
rolling bills, its Ligb cultivation without
its bad pike, but a good pike in every di
rection without its bold mountains, that
I miss ao much without its fine horses
just now, as Hobs aod Feds, (as they are
termed here) have made use of tbem ioso-
! mnch that many have oot enough draught
and work animals to put in their crops,
yet remembering that Kentucky had tbe
fin.t horses in the world, and there was
.. ' . .
or aged matron or sire, but had their own
horse with all tbo gifts that God bas
ever blessed a country, 'bating the niggers
and whiskey, you can form some idea of
the lines in which our lot has fillcn.
