The general scales of prices of all kinds of Drapery, Silk Mercery, Carpets, Furnishing, and Clothing have been by their grand system altered and reduced. , These very circumstances will so largely benefit the Purchasers as to amount to a great saving in their yearly expenditure. . , opinion of countless observers, that such advantages as K. G. & Co. offer to -Buyers, will appear more strikingly when seen than whenadvertised. Several shipments of Spring and Summer Drapery, Silk Mercery.{Carpets, Floorcloths, burnishing, and Clothing, now on view in the undermentioned departments SILKS— The demand is every day increasing for their celebrated Black silks.

Prices vary from 3s 6d to 14a per yard, SILKS— The greatest choice is here of Colored and Fancy Silk Dresses j and the greatest praise is that they are good and cheap.
