Monroe, Oct. *50.-tf, BMirrtfscmrnts. THE NEBRASKA SALOON AND RESTAURANT. A CARD TO TIIE PEBLIC. Since I have succeeded to tho solo management of "the above popular House, it 1ms been my constant aim to make it a place of agreeable resort for thb business classes and visitors generally. No pains or expense have been spared to place my establish ment on a footing that will bear favor able compnrisuti \Vith the most fash ionable and best regulated saloons in the South-west. How far 1 have been successful in my efforts to please all, can be best attested by the recent handsome improvements the munifi cent patronage 1 have received has enabled me to perfect, uiid for which I return grateful acknowledgements to one and all. Having secured the SfcrviceS til" Messrs. Down itn and Hinson , both clever, popular and experienced men at the business, 1 think I risk nothing in saying that the public will in fu ture, as heretofore, find tho Nebraska conducted on a plan such as to chal lenge admiration and command a con tinuanco of that generous support hitherto extended by an appreciating community. The flattering success that bus crowned my efforts of late, has deter mined me to increase the "area of my usefulness," and I take pleasure in in forming the public, that 1 shall, as soon as I can perfect a few preliminary ar rangements. open a RKSTAURANT on a scale that will do credit to Mon roe. A good Restauiiant is an essen tial adjunct to a public saloon such as tho Nebraska, and tho choice things that will abound in the various ap pointments of the one, will lind a coun terpart in the other. 'i'lio want of a public Eating Saloon has long been felt hero, and the grow ing importance of Monroe, added to the now fixed fact, that we are soon to have the Railroad completed to this point, imperatively demands that something should be done to meet the, wants of the hundreds and thousands that will be thrown in our midst; and uld be mortifying indeed to have it cast up to lis by criticising strang ers that tho boasted capital of North Louisiana cannot so much as afford a "cup of wann coffee" or a dish of "ham and egg«" to the weary and hungry traveller. This must not be; and as far as my humble abilities will permit, 1 am determined to contribute my share towards sustaining the rep utation of the town, by providing suitable means of comfort to those who may visit us. Again do I return thanks for the kind encouragement I have received, which 1ms enabled me to refit and em bellish the Nebraska in its present sumptuous style; and to the line judg ment, taste and skill of Messrs. Lister & Lanigan—two as experienced work men ns ever wielded a paint-brush— am 1 indebted for tliu handsome city like appearance and imposing mein of the building. OUSBUN JONES.
