Tha Firm are on the eve of Stock-taking, and as the Winter Season 13 considerably advanced, I presume they were anxious to reduce their Stock.

Considering the enormous Discount at which I have procured the above, I think you will be able to pell them ;it 1/ per Yard all round, and still realize a small profit. A proportionate quantity of the same Lines have been aent to our Greymouth. Hokitika, Westport, and Wanganui Branches. The reuuinder will be forwarded to New South Wales. ONE SHILLING "TABLES ! ! !
