THE NEBRASKA SALOON
AND RESTAURANT.
A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

Since I have succeeded to tho sole
management Of the above popular
House, it has been my constant aim to
make it n place Of Agreeable resort
for the business classes and visitors
generally. No pains or expense have
been spared to place my establish
ment on footing that will bear favor
able compurisoii With the most fash
ionable and best regulated saloons in
the Southwest. How far hare been
successful i'll my efforts to please all,
can be best attested by the recent
handsome improvements tho munif.
cent patronage l have received has
enabled me to perfect and for which
return grateful acknowledgements
to one and all. j.,
Having secured the services Of
Messrs. DowNER and HiNsoN, both
clever, popular and experienced men
at the business, think risk nothing
in saying that the public will in fu-
ture, as heretofore, find the Nebraska
conducted on plan such as to chal-
lenge admiration and command u con.
tinuancc of that generous support
hitherto extended by an apprcciating
community.
The nattering success that has
crowned my efforts Of late, has deter
mined me to increase the "arca of my
usefulness," and | take pleasure in in
forming the public that shall, as soon
as | can perfect few preliminary ar.
rapgements, open q RESTAURANT
on scale that will do credit to Mon
roe. A good RESTAURANT is an essen
tial adjunct to q public saloon such
as the Nebraska, and the choice things
that will abound in the various APP
pointmcnts of the one, will find coun-
tcrpart in the other.
Tho want of public Eating Salool
has long been felt here, and the grow
ing Importance of Monroe, added tc
the now fixed fact, that we are soor
\ to have the Railroad completed to this
point, imperativcly demands tlu
something should be done to meet tho
wants of the hundreds and thousands
that will be thrown in our midst; and
it would be mortifyng indeed to hav,
i, it cast up to us by criticising strang
crs that the boastcd capital of Nortl
a Louisiana cannot so much as afford
"cup of warm coffee" or u dish Q
$ cham and cggs' to the weary an
hungry traveller This must not be
and as far as my humble abilities vii
y permit, am determined to contribut
G my share towards sustaining the rel
Il ntation of the town, by providin
J, suitable means of comfort to thos
l. who may visit us.
i Again do return thanks for til
kind encouragement l have received
G which has enabled me to refit and en-
C belish the Nebraska in its presor
sumptuous style; and TO the fine .iuds
ment, taste and skill of Messrs. Listt
= & Lanigan-two as experienced worl
men as ever welded paint-brush-

The nlethodist Conference.

BUFFALO, May 23.-Nineteenth day Of the
N. H. General Conterence.--At an early hour
to-day the galleries and that part of the floor
of st. James Hall set apart for spectators was
densely crowded, mostly by ladies.
AT ten o'clock the special order was taken
up, which was the consideration of the reports
of the Committee on Slavery.
The resolutions presented by the majority
were read, and DR.. Kingsley moved the adop-
tion of the first one. He intended to make
no argument now for himself and friends.
He was willing the subject should go to a
vote now without debate. They did not
come to debate, neither were they afraid of it.
He bore witness to the Christian feeling and
harmony which had characterized the dis
cussion of the subject on the committee, and
he hoped that the same spirit would con-
tinue in the discussion now about to take
place.
Rev. Mr.. Coombe, of the minority, then
took the floor, and proceeded to discuss the
report. He was interrupted by the thirty
minutes allowed TO each member, and was
unable to finish his argument.
Mr.. Moody, of Cincinnati, followed. His
| argument was decidedly anti-slavery; de
nOuncing the evil of slavery in the strongest
terms, and giving twenty-ohe reasons why
he was in favor of the majority report.
Mr.. Moody was followed by the Rev. Mr.
Wilson, of Maryland.
