The subscriber having for nine years past re ceived a liberal patronage from merchants, and p. incip.-lly from gentlemen of business at his lor nier liotel in Broad street, is satisfied from ex perience that early rnea's to many are more ac ceptat le ; thcrelore he has had his house so con structed as to be ab'e to serve meals to such at eany hours. The hours adopted for meals are as ful ows, viz; In Gentleman's dining room upon Ist floor, Breasfast at 7 or half past 7, with refeiente to the season of the year. Dinner in same at 2 oxioik. In Gentlemen's dining room upon 2d story, and also in Ladies’ ordinary, Breakfast from Bto 10 o’clock, and Dinner at half past 3. Printed bills of fa.e are daily got up for the different dining rooms, as it is optional with Gentlemen to ta;%e their meals in either of the Gentlemen’s dining rooms, without giving any notice of their choice ; the subscriber hopes the* ext a trouble and expense in the attempt to suit their convenience in this respect will be propelly appreciated by a generous public, and that a commensurate patronage will resud therefrom This House possesses every convenience that the subscriber could devise, and is universal.y pio nouuccd by visitors to lie the most replete in its internal arrangements—its construction for light and air being superior to any other House in the city. In addition to the many advantages and comforts over most Hotels, it has a living spring of pure soft water upon the premises, which,apart from its intrinsic worth as a wholesome beverage, so un usual to be found in the lower part of the city, adds very much to tbe safet- of the establishment in case of a fire on or near the premises; a power ful force pump being attached to the well to force i water therefrom, as well as from the various cis- j terns in the yard, to the reservoirs under the roof, I from which, by use of the house, wati r can le forced over any' part of the premisi s in an instant, i In short, this establishment has been got up without reference to cost, and it is the intention of tbe subscriber to have it stand among the very best ; iiotcN in the country. He hopes to be favored w ith a share of public patronage. June 2—6 t D. D. HOWARD. I V lURING my absence from the city. W. If. _i f MAfIAHRV. K.Si).. will att-. nd to the office of city Bheiiff. WM.
