Drapery. PRINCES STREET. R APERY g ALE. IN furtherance of Doing Business on a method I believe quite new to the Province of New Zealand, and especially that of Otago, and according well with a system which for several ye irs I uniformly adopted in the Australian Colonies, proving eminently successful, greatly to the advantage of Purchasers, and answering the view of the Seller, I purpose offering the Residue »of my present opened Stock at prices considerably reduced, shewing discounts varying from 20 per cent, to 65 per cent, RICHARD MILLS.

THE offering of Goods quite New, Modern . in Style, and combined improvements of manufacture, all of which have been so recently imported at Reduced Prices, notwithstanding the value at which they have been sold heretofore, and the marked contrast with Colonial Prices ruling in Dunedin, is a method of business which colonial merchants may possibly won der at, but a man who buys his Goods well, and knows how to select them and pays for them in cash, has a perfect right to sell them at whatever price he may think proper, and therefore, in deference to the kind Patronage accorded me by the Ladies of Otago since landing in Dunedin, I have now resolved to make Reductions on Surplus Stock, the special obj ct in view being to hold over no Stock that may be quitted or disposed of.

RICHARD MILLS. WHEN Men in Business c dculate with that nicety and certainty the expense at which they cm carry out their arrangements, and command facilities in their transactions, as we.l as attain certain objects by a Moderate Outlay, they are naturally induced to regard the means as a part of the necessary success, and adopt them accordingly.

THIS System of Business now being tried as an experiment only, if successful, may be taken as an effort to infuse fresh vigor and more enterprise, into one of England’s most favored distant communities ; and English merchants may contemplate with pardonable pride and complacency the effmts made by British emigrants who go forth to make a home for themselves in a distant land without forgetting their Mother Country; reproducing with necessary modifications the institutions which flourish so eminently amongst those left behind, and approximating so cl sely to the manner o doing Business at Home.
