They re fer to the high reputation of the several hotels now under their management (the Arlington and Norvill Houses in Lynchburg, and the Ar lington. in Danville, Va.) as an evidence of their ability to carry out their promises in good faith. With ample means amt resources, they do not hesitate to pledge to the people of Geor gia especially, as well as of the whole country, that THE KIMBALL HOUSE will be kept up to so high standard of excellence as to delight all who may seek pleasure and com fort under its roof. The city of Atlanta enjoys well-merited fame for the liealthfulness and salubrity of its climate, being 1100 feet above sea level; and hence is be coming both a favorite Summer and. Winter Resort. Its splendid elevation fortifies it against the en croachment of malarial diseases, and exempts it from the enervating influences peculiar to many less favored localities.
