DRAPERY. DUNEWK, March, 1873. In publishing the'following “ Extracts from our Home' Correspondence,” we wish tr ihow, without laying claim to advantages not possessed by others, that our Goods arr purchased in the best markets, and on the most favorable terms ; that they are selected with the greatest care and judgment; that no effort is spared to secure the newest, most fashionable, and best goods of every class, and that no house is in a better position to give sterling value to their customers. SHOWN, EWING, & CO. EXTRACTS FROM HOME CORRESPONDENCE. “ Since date of last letter shipments have been despatched by the several vessels bound for your port, all of which, with others longer afloat, cannot fad to ooen lip to J ()U J CQLlie satisfaction, and secure the groat desideratum-viz. a still larger increase of business. * # * * # * “Mr Ewing (who is at present in the manufacturing districts of Scotland), from his long experhncelid thorough knowledge of the requirements of the Dunedm market, has rendered invaluable assistance in securing for you the right class of goods, and unques tionably Gie e ff ort g ; yo u will, during the winter at least, be ab’e to supply your constituents at old prices. ... The bulk Stock held over from season will give you an immense advantage over those requiring to buy now, as the advance on heavy woollen goods, such as Blankets, Flannels, &c., is enormous. * * * * * * “ Your increased orders have caused all difficulties in the way of going to the fountain head entirely to vanish, and now I venture to say th*t no firm can get readier access to al desirable people. ... I believe everything going out this season will bear parison with anything reaching your market. . . 1 here is no earthly reason why you S uld not compete successfully with any wholesale house in New Zealand m the matter of va e. “JACKETS AND SHAWLS.—By this mail you will receive six cases, one of which contains the very latest styles. The mantles are very richly trimmed this season. “ MILLINERY, as you will see, is from the leading French establishments, and ought to be all that can be desired.” “ STRAW GOODS, tho’ vastly in excess of orders, must be right. . . . 1 never saw cheaper goods. ... By Charlotte Gladstone you should soon have one portion of the 20,000 Hats before mentioned. They are a desperate bargain, and ought to do you RIBBONS. The new colors, so recently considered ugly by many, m"e now all the rage. A full variety has been sent. Watered ribbons will be much worn.” “FURS, having been bought in summer, are fully a fourth under present prices.” “SILKS. More than usual attention has this season been given to this line. The Blacks, in particular, you will find are exceptionally good value. You may safely warrant every through, where the best value and most suitable goods were secured wherever met with. You will find some very choice things amongst it.” “WINCEYS and SKIRTINGS.—Of these, Mr Ewing seems to have made some very large and satisfactory purchases in Aberdeen, Perth, &c. ; but upon these and other Goods purchased in bis tour, he will no doubt make his own report. “PAPER MODELS.—These life-size Models represent the very newest designs in Dresses, Mantles, Jackets, Tunics, &c., &c., made specially for you. “FANCY GOODS. —Everything new, pretty, and seasonable has been sent in Clouds, -arfs, Gloves, Collarettes, Real Crochet, New Laces, Belts, Falls, Fair Nets and Rolls, » &c.
