/. 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 months 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 down to suit the times. The population must have clothing suitable Jor an almost tropical summer. J. Cosgrave and Co. have met the crisis, they have broken down the monopoly of large profits that h%ve reigned hers for years past. They are determined the, people shall be clad and that cheaply ; a great chance teas offered lately, the stock of a large importer of drapery ivas in the market, a discount off English cost was given, and J. Cosgrave and Co. became the purchasers, hence our extensive andvaluable sale of drapery takes place This Day. — \_Advt.~]
