Drapery. QPBN I N G J) A Y, SATURDAY, JULY 31, 1869. INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. THE following list, having the appearance of being given in detail, shows only a portion of the Stock opened up for sale. The prices quoted, together with the Co* Innial va ue attached, brings out prominently the advantages obtained by purchasers. Household Drapery comprises an assortment of goods always in demand ; the more especially at this season of the year—such as Flannels, Blankets, Sheetings, Quilts. Counterpanes, Huckabacks, Linens, Hollands, &c., &c., —while the prices quoted offer special inducements to those desirous of furnishing economically. The Mantles and Jackets are worthy of special mention, embracing a few select novelties, together with a class of goods not always obtainable and marked tor their usefulness. To the Dress Department, I have given my earnest attention, and with long and active experience, aud a thorough knowledge of the requirements of the Colonies, I can with confidence invite an inspection of the variety of fabrics introduced, the qualities and selection of colorings, and specially to the value, as conducing favorably to the interest of buyers. The difference in rental of the new premises as compared with the old, is more than balanced by tbe reduced rate of insurance on brick buildings as compared with wood. It is worthy of remark, that three months ago I tendered an offer for these same premises ; the landlords being large importers intlie same line as myself, it was presumable that I should not prove so desirable a tenant as one who was not importing, and I take this opportunity of thanking them for their kindness in placing the premises at my service, and on terms extremely liberal, enabling me to open up my goods with greater pleasure, aud certainly much more conducive to the convenience of those favoring me with their patronage.
