A HEW 8VMUER HOTEL. ENGLISH CAPITAL INVE8T OK THK EAST BANK OF TUB HUDSON. Chatham, N.Y., Oct, 12.

It has been rumored for some aays that a syndicate of London capitalists were negotiating for the purchase of a farm and vineyard, Ue property of Frederick Judson, situated on the east bank of the Hudson River about five miles above the city ot Iladson, and that Uey would erect thereon a mammoth Summer hotel, similar to tha celebrated Delmonte Hotel at Monterey, Cel. To a Tings reporter Mr. Judsoa gave the following information He was approached about three weeks ago by a representative of Ue syndicate, and negotiations have ao fur progressed that there remains but tne exeoution the transfer papers to complete the deal. The syndicate la represented In this country by William K. Vanderbiit, which virtually meana tbe New-York Central and Hudson Kiver Railroad Company, and it la sale to any Uat that corporation will be largely Interested In this new Investment of English capital.

There being no Hummer resort of prominence upon the east shore of the Hudson, the syndicate have been prospecting tor some time for a sultubio location for a hotel, and have at last decided upon Mr. Judeon's property aa having Ue beat natural advantages and tbe finest scenery. City photographers have been at work taking views of tbe river and surrounding country, wnloh views are by this Urns across Ue water in the hands of the Capitalists Interested. The Intention of the syndicate Is to erect a mammoth hotel at a cost of a quarter of a million dollars, which will accommodate 1.500 guests and will be conducted ae a high-priced ariatocratio resort. A quarter of a million more will bo expended oa outer ouild-Ings and laying out the grounds.

It will be completed wiihln a year, ao ae to be ready for the season of 1st) A railroad station and steamboat landing will be erected at tbe river, thus affording every raclllty to tbe gneeta, and being so easy of ao-cesa from New-York, Albany, and other principal clues lis success Is almost aa assured fact. The Judson property in question comprises about one hundred and eight acres, and Is situated about half a mile aorU of btoegport station, upon a commanding elevation, and from it are to be seen many of tbe finest and most Interesting views along the Hudson. An extensive vineyard Is oa the premises, and this will bo continued In connection with the hotel upon tbe plan of the celebrated grape-cure eatablish-liahmenU ot Germany and France. About fifty acres ot wood land adjoining the Judson place wlU bo pure based and laid out in a beautiful park, aad in addition there Is a strong sulphur spring opoa the latter property, which can bo utilised tor baths. The investment Is a new one tor English capital, and Ue lack ot Summer resorts upon the east bank of Ue Hudson and Ue central location, combined with Ue attractiveness of the surrounding ooun-try, Ue medicinal qualities of Ue springs, ana Ue teollltles tor guests, will undoubtedly make it as soon as completed on of Ue leading Ham.

It was a happy idea of Ue dramatist, Uough. to make her one of the inmates of the temple who were crushed when the walls fell. The blind hero's soliloquy is beautifully rendered, and Ue picture he presents as his chains snap under the force of his returning strength has the power and simplicity of a tragedy of Sophocles, or, what is better, Ue Bible itself.

The Samson of Salvlnl is, Indeed. Ue Samson of Ue Book of Judges, but Slgnor d'Aste's tragedy is not very inspiriting or Inter esting. Mr. Palmer has given Salvlnl surroundings better than he ever has bad before in America. The scenery and dresses in Samson" are all good.

We could well spare Miss Brookrn's singing and Mr. George Fawoett's yell! But as a general thing Ue subordinate players do not fall into extrava gance.

"Richelieu" will be the play, and the public has not yet grown tired of Mr. Booth's splendidly intellectual and picturesque portrayal of Bulwers Cardinal. Mm a. Modjeska will probably make Julie de Mortemar a more interesting and human heroine than Ue actresses who have been associated with Mr.

To-morrow night, also, at tbe Star Thea tre, we are to have Mr. Florenoe, one of Ue best comedians our stage has ever known, as Sir Lucius CVTrigger, a character that has been raUer shabbily treated since John Brougham and William Floyd died. There is no doubt Uat Florence will make the gallantry and bravado of the Irish knight deuciously humorous. We all know Mr.
