J. Cosgrave and Co. beg to inform the public that there is an entire revolution in dress, also in the prices of goods. It is necessary it should be so, as Auckland is not in the flourishing position it was twelve monllis ago ; it is like all goldfield cities, suffering under a recovery, the working classes are more numerous and money less plentiful. Therefore, the prices of drapery and clothing must come dmon to suit the times. The population must have clothing suitable for an almost tropical summer. J. Cosgrave and Co. have met the crisis, they have broken down the monopoly \ of large profits that have reigned here for years past. They are determined the people sliall be clad and that cheaply.; a great chance was offered lately, the stock of a large importer of drapery was in the market, a discount off English cost was given, and J. Cosgrave. and Co. became the purchasers, hence our extensive and valuable sale of drapery takes place This Day. — \_Advtd] ■■■
