kND-HAyANA, December Is, lS4l,-lt has long
been matter of regret to the inhabitants of this city
that on the arrival of nyalids from the United States
with letters of introduction, il has never been in their
mower to recommend them a suitable residence in
The country. 1t has therefore been necessary for
such persons, either TO take up their abode III the
hotels in town. where the noise and hustle of crowd
ed city, and the want OF the pure atmosphere and
calm retirement of country life, prevent their de-
irving that benefit from the change OF climate which
they naturally expect, or they are compelled to go to
places in the country where adequate preparations
have been made for receiving them, and where the
apartments accommodations and manner OF living,
are in no wise calculated for persons IN delieate
state of health.
From a due consideration of this want and OF the
GREAT benefit that would be derived by lnNalids VINO
Seek to regain that health in the mild and benehcent
climate of Cuba if a suitable abode should be pro-
Sided for them, the subscriber, medical practitioner
long established in this city, has appropriated MS
beautiful coffee estate called the Buend Esperda-d,
situated in the most healthy and romantic part oil the
country so as to form residence equally agreeable
and attractive In order to carry out this intention
10 the fullest extent that professional knowledge and
long experience of the effects OF tropical climates
could attain, no pains have been sparedt 10 form an
establishment which affords to the invalid, as well a.
TO the healthy ysiter every rational enjoyment that
can be derived from dwelling in the mildest climate,
surrounded by the most picturesque vegetation The
grounds laid out in the beautiful style OF coffee es-
tate, comprise ABOUT NNt nunuTeu acres Inc DWisd
Esperan-a is situated the south side OF the island,
and is thus, in d great measure, sheltered from the
chilly winds which now and then blow from the north
during the winter months The district in which II
lies has been, from It's extreme beauty, termed the
Windsor Of Cuba. The house has been built with
every attention to those comforts Indispensable to
inyalds and of which the buildings of this country
are so destitute All the rooms have boarded floors
and glass windows The establishment is on the
footing of that of private family, Of which the guests
form part, making themselves quite at home, and
without being confined to those regulations which are
necessary at hotels In this establishment the invalid
has it in his power to vary his amusements, by walk
ing in the shady avenues of mango and palm trees
riding on horseback or IN yolante, or visiting the
neghboring estates, thickly spread through the
populous country. A large sugar estate close at
hand affords an opportunity of drinking the hot cane
Juice, while the surrounding woods furnish amuse-
ment to the SPORTSMAN
The subscribers numerous family resides constantly
on the premises
