We learn from reliable authority that a new hotel is soon to be opened at Powellton, Mr. John T. Powell having leased his large dwelling to a gentleman from the North, who will enlarge it and convert it into a hotel. Powellton is delightfully situated on the seaside; and with proper hotel accommodations cannot fail to attract a large crowd of visitors during the summer months.
