In addition to what we have already received new goods will be arriving during December and early part of January. All Settings are 18-Ct Gold. Pearls are of fine quality, properly.set in the gold, and do not fall out. All gems are also of excellent quality. Brushes and Mirrors are made with the metal stout enough to stand _ ordinary wear, and are not loaded with pitch, as is often done. The bristles and glass are of best quality. Wo have a large stock ol Pearls, Diamonds, Rubies, Emeralds, Olivines, Sapphires, Opals and Turquoises unmounted. We would call attention to the quality and value of our goods. ..Country correspondents may have <roods forwarded on approval.
