The foUowing is an Extract from our Colonial Buyer's Latter :— Memjouune, June 24th, 1875. Dbar Sir, lam forwarding to Nehon this day, per "Alhambra." 11 CASES and 2 BALES. The bulk nf these Goods consist of Plain and F<wcy Dress Materials, which I bave succeeded in purchasing from Messrs at an incredibly low figure. 'Jhe quantity I hive sent you is, I admit, unusually large for a retail trade ; and in explanation I have to state, that it was only by cleirlng the whole of their Stock that I was enabled to obtain the Goads at what I consider an'uii paralleled price. lam confident we could not import the same Gooda direct from Homo within FIFTY PER CENT, ofthe price. Tho Firm are on the eve of ' Stock-taking, and as the Winter Season is considerably advanced, I presume they were anxious to reduce their Stock. Mr. H informs me that the price of these Gooda was 1/9 Wholesale. This would make them, when they landed in New Z.'a'and, worth about 2/. Considering the enormous Discount at which I have procured the above, I think you will be able to aell thera »t 1/ per Yard all round, aud still realize a small profit. A proportionate quantity of the same Lines have beon sent to our Greymouth, Hokitika, Westport, and Wangauui Branches. The remainder will be forwarded to New South Wales. ONE SHILLING TABLES ! ! !
