Stepping into the Immigration effiee yesterday we were informed that seven letters had just been received from nor thern eop!e making inquiry as to nc commodatious to be had in this State by parties coming South to spend; the win ter months. We were informed that these letters were . coming, in by every mail and that most of them were in re sponse to a two-line advertisement in serted in the New York Times! The writer of one of the let ters stated that as "Florida was out of the ques tion," he wished to secure permanent accommodation for himself and family for, the winter months and wa willing to pay a good, price. It is evident that many of. these people are looking out f i new winter quarters and that the utten tiou of many of them is Iknu;. directed toward this State.
