The following complimentary notice of Jewett Wilcox and the Tremont house, Chicago, we take Irom the Pock laland, Illinois, Argm .- There is no hotel in the West that is more popular nor any bi tter deserves i s reputation than the Tremont house, Chicago. This magnificent palace ol luxury is one of the best hotels this side ol New York, and lor comfort, ap pointments and bill of tare is unsurpass ed anywhere. There is something more needed in a first-class house than a good room and board, ana that is coarteous treatment. Tho Tremont combines all these qualities, and not only are guests given all the comtorts that tnoJeru im provements can give, but there Is that about the house that makes t ne feel at home always. This has been the secret of the success of tho Tremont. Jewett Wilcox, the gentlemanly manager and Messrs. Weutworth and Swilt.the clerks, seem fo vie with each other as to who shall add most to the comfort ol the guest. The house is thp most elegmtlv furnished in the west and has lately been refitted and renovated throughout, mak ing It what its name Implies, the "pal ace hotel" of the coiiutry. The A.-qui takes pleasure in commending its readers and the public, generally to the Tremont, which stands without a s nperh-r In the hotel line. Iu Iliiiikruittry . In the matter of Louis D.
