dance with general wish expressed by visiters at
the seat of Government, that commodious and
genteel place Of resort for general refreshments
might be established on the plan of some Of the
most celebrated Northern and Eastern Restaura-
teurs, the extensive establishment known as the
Fronting the Unitarian Church, and in rear Of
Coleman's Hotel, has been reftted and furnished
for the purpose, and the Saloons are now an
nounced as being ready for the reception of COM
pany, with full supply of choice Game, Oysters,
and every delicacy Of the season.
A separate entrance to the establishment will
introduce ladies and gentlemen to reserved Sa-
looms, where they will meet with the most respect
full attention., and parties may depend at all times
on being served with promptitude and at moder-
ate charges.
The style in which these Saloons are fitted up,

fdently believed, will be satisfactory.
