MESSRS. HALLEN'STEIN BROS., i Of the New Zealand Clothing Factory, following the example of some of the large manufacturers at Home, ami more especially with a view of preventing the importation of English clothing, intend opening an extensiv* [ Retail Establishment for the sale of their manufactures. For this purpose, they haTr i fitted up commodious premises at the corner of the Octagon and Princes street, which arc | to be opened ou Saturday, May 27. This branch will be uuder the immediate management of Mr. Laurensou, and under the supervision of Mr. B. Hallentteiu, the head of the New Zealand firm. Messrs Hallenstein Bros., under the management of Mr Anderson, a partner in the wholesale and factory branch, started the New Zealand Clothing Factory about two and a-ha!f years ago. They commenced on a comparatively imall scale ; at present, they employ between 200 and 300 hands. They have had to overcome many difficulties and much prejudice, but now their goods, as will be seen fiom the ships' manifests, are being sent to all parts of New Zealand. In Dunediu only they have found persistent opposition on the part of the larger houses who aie glutting this market with imported goods and, no doubt, the retailers find it to their advautage to push these iv preference to local manufactures. The proprietors of the New Zealand Clothing Factoiy have, therefore, very judiciously decided to introduce their manufactures uirect to the large consuming population of Dunedin : and, in order to do so effectively, they have determined to sell a single garment at the wholesale price. The selling price is to be marked in plum figures on every article, from which no abatement will be made. The business is to be conducted strictly on the cash principle, and all goods must be paid for on delivery, but, any article not found suitable may be exchanged, or the tnouej letumed As will be seen from the garments presented by the New Zealaud Clothing Factory in aid of the Benevolent Asylum, and now exhibited in this buildiug, they are superior in style and quality, and at a piouortionately lower price, tliau anything that eaa be imported. But, iriespective of all these advantages, it is to the interest of everyone to support an industry which employs local labour, and is a direct benefit to the butcher, baker, farmer, mechanic, shopkeeper, mei chant, and to all sections of th« community.
