Tit 7' O X T II R E A 1) ING! WORTH THINKING ABOUT!! O R AM' S HOTEL (Late Prince Arthur Hotol, and the Retrospective), 11OBSON AND WELLKSLKY-STRKKTS, AUCICLAND. | TO THE INHABITANTS OF AUCKLAND AND T«AVEILING PUBLIC. Ladies and Gentijcmen',—Since my two last advertisements were issued, when 1 had the honour of drawing your attention In tho first inatanco to the KHECTION OF THE FIRST PART OF THE HOTEL, and in the second inaiunco the recognition of your patronage, the succcks bo far financially of the Hotel, the hope of a further extension of your favours, and in dicating tin; future prospects and improvements, of the City of Auckland, since and including those periods three and a half years hnvo rolled away. The Proprietor hopes tho shortcomings—the j little deficiencies of management, and. the in ability of not accommodating all that came to the Hotol, have none with it. But whatever has been, or what may be. let us hopu the year '85 will reveal, and be the (orcrnnnitrol'many years of success and prosperity for those who may try for it. The retrospect of a man's life—his business, the town in which he livea, or even the world which holds them both—may or may not bo plea- Rant to contemplate, yet its reminiscencea can bo used aa guiding posts for all future actions. The physical aspect of Auckland city and its Burroundingshttsforthebetterchanged so rapidly to tho astonishment of all. and unaccountably so even to its oldest inhabitants. With them in the perspective it is positive. The old suburbs absorbed by tho city; new suburbs formed ; now streets made ; buildings erected that would do credit to the older cities of the world—all of this newly-croated power is but the result of Nature's bountiful gifts: without it, man's utilitarian proclivities in many respects would be useless. True then amongst the manybuildingimprove nients in the City, hotel accommodation iB the most conspicuous, and without presumption it may be mentioned ORAM'S HOTEL stands prc-ominently the best in Auckland. According to tho original design, the Hotel has advanced one stage further towards its final completion. The new addition with Its Hydraulic Passenger and Luggatre Lift is nearly completed, a description of which, with the whole Block, will be Riven in another Advertisement, At present tho Proprietor would wish to draw the attention of the public to tho almost insur mountable obstacles an Hotel like ORAM'S (or in proportion much larger houses) have to over come if it is to be successful in every reßpect and become established and gain tho confidence of its patrons. In the large cities of the world how oft and unfortunate it is we find Promoters erecting colossal edifices with their gorgeous appoint ments and costly conveniences, surpassing in magnificence our kingly palaces and oriental aplendour, tho wonder and talk of travellers, tho pride and pleasure of their cities, commencing their career on a road of fiLino, with bright prospects for future suc cess, so soon to realise the position of an unpay able concern. And why is this? Not because tho management is not good. In Great Britain hotels havo some of tho best and smartest tradesmen in tho communities to supervise them. In America tho genoral belief is some ef the beat commercial men they have are those whorunthoirHotols. On tho Continent of Europe Hotolkecpers surpass even those for precise management, their unlimited attentive ness, and tho happy knack of supplying every little want to their vlaitors. Again, these large Hotols in their different countries have, too, tho advantages of liberal LlcensingLaws. They havo night liconses to recoivo visitors. Visitors can receive their friends in Public Apartments every day in tho week, night or day. without having the quibble (if wanted) of a Licenalns Act thrown In their faces. Tho Hotels are not compelled to light tho streets of the City by night; tho respective Corporations do that for their citizens. The police do not patrol ita halls and passages; tho State have faith ill their good management. But, with all this in ihoir favour—theso stupenduouß structures, rearing their heads aloft in all tho powerful grandeur of well-to-do trading concorns, aro but aorry investments aftor nil. Again, Why is this ? Because thoy have not what ORAM'S HOTEL Han always endeavoured to cultivate, a good LOCAL TRADE. A House like ORAM'S is ac much a necossity for ono class of cußtomers as tho other. To tho Local Public it is a guarantee tho Wines, Spirits, Ales, &c, will be sound, good, and genuine. A proof of this—tho many orders supplied by ORaM for Brandies, &c, as Medical Comforts. The importance of ono class of ORAM'S TRADE must make tho good conduct of the other part umiucstionuble. Yet tho Proprietor is afraid this is but littlo considered by a great many of the people. Let it be assumed then, if large Family Hotels in tho older World, existing under such liberal licensing laws, having encouragements from their respective Governments, do .find thoni aolves weighed down by their own enormous expenses that they barely exist, what a strugglo muat it be thon for hotels of the same class, say hero in Auckland, with comparatively the same expenses, governed by an arbitrary licensing law which knows no distinction levelled up or down, whichever it piay be called, to one class of Hotels. Tho proprietor of ORAM'S HOTEL cannot but think the advantages named in the foregoing of these linos accorded to such Family and Commercial Houses in the Old World should lie given to the samo class o( Hotels in New Zealand, especially When tho Management is willing to pay for those advantages. Tho anxiety, hard v\'ork, long hours, and heavy rcsponsibity. bound tvp as'tbjCyare iv the good management o f mch costly establishments, have but little sympathy and no encouragement shown them within or outside of their own sphere. As a rule,' acting up to and abiding by the laws which govern tboni, houses like Oram's Hotel'haa a strong flght to make, and but a poor show against tho trickery of a dobaucltcd trado. Rogurdlcsß, too, of tho benefit they are to tho Towiib (indeed, a much greator benefit to the Towns than to tho Proprietors), and mindful of their dignity, Hotels Ilka dram's muat lay a motionless mass at tho feet of party spirit, and realise party Bpirit to govern them. To this class of tho trade, thon, such ha 3 been ttio retrospect of its existence. And in conclUßlon it is tho oarnost wish that the Proprietor of ORAM'S HOTKL shall some day realise tho fact this olaaa of trade will live down tho petty annoyances and all unchari tablencsa it is continually liable to. and will rise abovo the obstacles which surround it. and the arbitrary power which tends to debase it, and that this most difficult trado shall at no distant time bo pointed out with respect avi one of tho principal amongst bo umny oOiYim'ercittl enterprises which prop tha flnuncial systems of this world, and that tho Proprietor of ORAM'S HQ'rEL, enuoavouring to givo every satisfaction', wnich lays In his power, shall realise the oontinufid and over increasing support in tlju future which has so liberally been accordod to him in tho past, is tho earnest wish of yours, Ladies and Gentlemen Obedient nUJTUBER,T ARAM, PROPRIETOR.
