In either case, we ought to be prepared for the worst. If a general war breaks out the price of nearly every article of commerce will rise. Among other commodities wool and labor will go up. Now is the time, therefore, to lay iu a P stock of clothing, before the general advance begins. In order that we may not be caught napping we have just purchased a Splendid Assortment of Winter Tweeds and other materials necessary to a well--6 equipped tailoring establishment, which we are prepared to offer at unusually low l * prices for cash. Regarding style and fit, it is almost needless for us to repeat what everybody knows, viz , that by our scientific mode of cutting, and the care exercised by us in fitting the figure, a mis-fit it an impossibility.— Craighead and Co., Merchant Tailors, Tancred street.
