Novi Sad in the 19th century
Having crossed the bridge, we entered the town of Neussatz, and were no longer in Sclavonia, but in Hungary. The Danube here separates the two countries, Peterwardein being on the Sclavonian side, and Neussatz on the Hungarian. We were directed to a very large and handsome-looking inn, where all appeared conducted quite on the regular hotel system, and we found everything very comfortable; the beds were good, and the chambers very passable. There were two large coffee-rooms, which appeared to be always filled with guests; there were several billiard-tables, and numbers of players, and at night the place was crowded ; cards, dominoes, chess, &c. were all going forward, and we entered into conversation with many pleasant and wellinformed men.
