A CARD.

To THE PuBLIc.-Owing to the false i'm.
preston made upon the mind of the public
with reference to the What Cheer House, in
consequence of the change recently made in
this establishment, it seems to be necessary TO
make statement of facts, in order to correct
these false impressions.
In the first place the What Cheer House
has not been "curtailed," restricted" and
'nearly ruined" as has been stated but has all
the room and superior facilities and convenien-
ces for accommodating the travelling public
that it possessed prior to the recent change
including Eating, Lodging, Library and Read
ing rooms, Museum, Laundry Office, Barber
shop, ETC., ETC., to say nothing of the improve
ments made and the great reduction of prices
In place of the old dilapidated rooms in the
part of the building vacated, an equal number
has been fitted up in elegant style, rendering
the What Cheer House superior even to what
it has been heretofore. We can assure those
who may favor us with their patronage that
their accommodations shall be ample, their
comforts enhanced, and their privileges as nu-
merous and unrestricted as ever
r. B. WOODWARD, Proprietor.

ORovILLE RALRoAD.-Concerning opera-
tions on this road, the Marysville Appeal, of
Tuesday, has the following:
The Oroville Railroad Company has made a
beginning on the work at this end of the pro-
posed road. Mr. Binney. the contractor, has
commenced camp on the road to the Park,
about mile and half from town. An office,
lodging tents and boarding house are going up,
and in the course OF week the first ground
for the grading will probably be broken. 1t
is proposed to put about one hundred men at
work, and the grading viii be forwarded with
as much expedition as possible the cash sys-
tenn in she payment of work being adopted by
the contractors. In this connection, it is only
a simple act of justice to the Company to say
that they only ask of the city of Marysville the
right of way from the terminus of their road to
the levee. for temporary purposes, as they want
to convey their iron and other materials from
the landing to the permanent track by means
of their own track, and they expect to take up
their temporary road when the railroad no
longer needs it for building purposes.
