Hotels. HP O THE PUBLIC. When 1 made my debut as a new-fledged publican, I addressed myself, through the medium of the press, to the "gentle public." Believe me when I tell you that that mode of address was not penned in any spirit of banter, or chaff, or self-conceit. I merely adopted it as a means of exciting attention; in other words, to make myself known to you. To be successful in my present (for me) big undertaking I must be popular ; to be popular I must first be notorious, and what mightier engine can I employ to attain my object than the lever which moves the world with greater facility than Archimedes could have done even with the foot of earth which the great philosopher sighed for ; the power I refer to is the press; Professor Holloway knows it, Spiers and Pond know it, the New Yorkers know it, and 1 want to know it. Partly by advertising," and partly by my own exertions, do I hope to attain my end, viz., your support. I thank yon heartily for the good start you have already given me ,- it shall not be my fault if I do not come in a winner hands down. Believe me to be yours respectfully, F. B.
