WYMOND & CO., as tbe production ot our well-known "LOCAL INDUSTRY," is but a SPUKIOUS IMITATION" of the TWEED MANUFACTURED BY US. WEBLEY BROTHERS. "WTJIOND AND CO.'S EXPLANATION. P.S. — The explanation advanced by Messrs. Wtmond and Co., to our minds, is by no means satisfactory. Granted that by inserting the word IMITATION the latter part ot the advertisement is disposed of, there is still the former part of the advertisement to account for, — namely, "To Supporters of Local Industry.". How the importation and sale of foreign goods can be called a branch of " Local Industry," we are at a loss to understand. We still believe it was the intention of the Advertisers to palm off their goods upon the publiu as genuine Nelson Tweed With reference to quality and durability, perhaps the best argument in proof of the superiority of our Tweeds is [ to be found in the fact thai they have been so universa'ly imitated. We leave the matter with the public to judge who is right in this matter. 2302 ■ TWO MORE GOLD MEDALS AND THREE SILVER MEDALS AWARDED TO EHE . L 0 R E N C E .

THE EXACT ANr?POSI^IVE MOTION of every part, with no uncertain springs or brush : pads, renders it almost impossible for a Florence Machine to get put of order, and enables even an ordinary operator to use it successfully.
