ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room it is generally the custom as every
one knows to have several champions present to
entertain the public FOR A FEw HOURS; but on
account of so much suffering among our people
we thought proper to give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that benefit, which
we have done for the last two weeks And
again, as 1t Is sometimes the custom Of giving
premiums. such as Watches etc, and having
proof of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy, we have therefore concluded to
give ten per cent. Of our profit to the poor of
Nashville, from the LIST day of April, 1857, up to
October LIST, 1867. six months,) which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor of Nash
vile. We hope that the amateur billiard play
ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain it.
