I would also intimate that I have just opened up a very large lot of very choice and suitable COLONIAL CLOTHING, Made m Melbourne to my special order I from Colonial Tweeds. The quality of j these Goods is well-known, and the Prices I am able to sell them at are much under what people have been m the habit of paying. The public can rely on a regular supply of these being kept m stock at both branches, Bulls and Feilding. The public will be consulting their own interest by inspecting the Stock ; the variety is very great, and bought m the very best Markets, and on the best terms; by this I am enabled to Sell>at Moderate Prices, which Mill compare most favourably with Wellington or Wanganui — 1 invite comparison with both places, D.
