HAYWARD PRESUMES to solicit the attention of his Friends and the Public to his TAILOR AND DRAPERY ESTABLISHMENT, No. 50, BOLD-STREET, where, by long experience, punctuality, and, especially, Style of Work executed, he has sincerely aimed at the satisfaction of the Public and to secure a part of its pa tronage. In doing this he does not profess to sell " below prime cost," as this could only deceive the unwary and offend the intelligent ; but he des profess to offer to his customers articles which, in QUALITY, FINISH, an d prITCP ('O3IMNED, 01.0 at lonot o. l aniko khoac c4ll, house in Liverpool, and he is determined to make it not less the interest than the pleasure of his Friends and the Public to confide to him their orders. He grounds his claim to consideration on the guarantee offered by experience, zeal, and a moderate Establishment and expenses, although in Bold-street, and puts forth the following List of CASH DOWN Prices, not to show how low he can quote, which is neither his wish nor practice, (trial being the satisfactory proof,) but to correct any public misapprehension, by showing, that to sell cheap is not the peculiar prerogative of the so-called Cheap Esta blishments in this town : Superfine Dress Coats, (say any Colour).£2 15 0 Do.

Rubbish may be met with at any time, any where, and at all rates. He has but to add, that, while he would ever recognise the fair claims of honourable competition, the experience of above twenty-five years enables him confidently to af firm, that, in all cases where extremely low prices are quoted, extremely low qualities can alone be furnished ; but, in articles of sterling value, the purchaser, to his cost, discovers that he has to pay, in all cases equal, in many cases ABOVE, the rates of established and respectable houses ; and it is due to himself to state, that no shop in town can supply a respectable Article on more advan tageous terms. British, India, and China HANDKERCHIEFS, in great variety. 50, Bold-street, August 1, 1844. UTH ! ! ! One br4,bt sunny day Truth would hover away, And seek through the populous town, That temple alone She could call as her own, As claiming the highest renown ! " Professors" she found Did most thickly abound, But their " actions" were short of their " sayings!" Then quickly she flew, And her path did pursue, For " that" was no place for her staying. At last did she stop At Hyam's famed shop, And found it was worthy her dwelling ! And delighted, she own'd, That the public had found A place which was proudly excelling. Says Truth "I confess, Your prices for dress, As daily in print we see quoted, Are exactly the same As for cash all obtain." Now this makes B. Ilyani so noted: CAUTION!

The public need hardly be informed that the extreme price, owing to the high duty of 225. 10d. per gallon upon Foreign Hollands, has always ope ra t e d aga i ns t its general use. This cause no longer exists, as C., P., and G. are enabled to offer their British Hollands, of the highest legal strength, at less than half the cost of the Foreign, namely, 16s. pet gallon, or 365. per case, con taining 12 bottles.

AMERICAN ICE. LYNN'S WATERLOO HOTEL, RANELAGH- STREET, LIVERPOOL. WILLIANI LYNN respectfully calls the attention of the Nobility, Gentry, Hotel-keepers, and others, to this beautiful and cheap article of importation. It is in SOLID BLOCKS, weighing from One to Two Hundred Pounds each. and is as CLEAR as CRYSTAL; it can be sent to any distance, with very trifling waste, and is used for a variety of purposes that English Ice cannot be ap plied to. W. L. has imported some PROVISION SAFES from America for the use and comfort of Private Families, the REFRIGERATOR, or, as sometimes designated, A. MINIATURE ICE-HOUSE. This is a new and use ful article of furniture, rapidly coming into use in northern and southern climes ; it is designated to keep cool and sweet such dishes in the culinary department as are ne cessary to be protected from the heat of the weather during the summer season. The REFRIGERATOR is now considered an indispensa ble article in the economy of every good housewife : the quantity of food it preserves will more than pay the cost of the article in one year. They may be seen in operation in their various valuable and useful purposes at the WA TERLOO HOTEL, and families can be supplied with them on moderate terms. AMERICAN ICE. WHOLESALE AND RETAIL.

FRANCIS GILLIES HENRY respectfully acquaints his Friends and the Public that he has taken the spa cious Premises called KIRKDALE HOUSE, Kirkdale, where lie manufactures extensively VINEGAR of a quality far superior to any ever before offered to the Trade and the Public, in soliciting whose support it will be his earnest endeavour to give every satisfaction to those who may favour him with their orders, feeling confident that a single trial will insure him future favours. In the preserving and pickling of Fruit at this season of Housekeeper year, every ousekeeper who possesses &Ileac) , of taste knows of what essential importance it is to have Vinegar on the quality and purity of which every depend ence can be placed. In drawing attention to his White Wine Vinegars, F. G. HENRY guarantees to the Public that it is produced from Vinous fermentation only ; that it will never, like other Vinegar, become opaque, but it will ever retain its brilliancy and lympidity in any climate, even if exposed to the air in open vessels. It is not only free from Sulphuric, but even of Pyrolig neous Acid, of which nearly all the White Wine Vinegars offered in the market are now composed. It is of the highest purity, and possesses all the strength and mellowness of the Orleans Vinegar. His Vinegars, Nos. 22, 20, and 18 are warranted free from all deleterious compounds and adulterations; and are preferred before the best London Vinegars.

A S an ordinary beverage, BETTS'S PATENT -El BRANDY is congenial to the most delicate consti tutions, and as a Medical Stimulant it is peculiarly adapted to persons of bilious or dyspeptic habits; for Preserves and Confectionery, for Culinary Purposes, and for fortify ing Home-made NVines, it is invaluable ; and, indeed, to whatever use adapted, it is in every respect preferable to Foreign Brandy.

TheBRONZES are of the most recherche description, consisting of Copies from the most renowned Antiques, Historical and My thological Subjects, and the imaginative designs of the first Continental Artists, at the head of whom Fratin, Gechter, and Cumberworth should be specially noticed. Illustrations of Torquato Tasso's Poem, " Jerusalem Delivered," Figures of Richard Coeur-de-Lion, and other distinguished Crusaders, will be found well deserving at tention. F. L. H. has again replenished his Stock of CLOCKS, direct from his Manufactory at Paris, which includes every variety of material and desig❑ in which it has been prac ticable to produce them. He would also refer to the Assortment of CHINA, containing some beautiful and guaranteed specimens of old Sevres, and some imitations of Dresden, so perfect as not to be distinguished from the real, except by the most ex perienced connoisseurs. The importation of BOHEMIAN GLASS is more extensive than ever, and for beauty of design and richness of tint, cannot be surpassed.

THE alteration in the d u ty on COFF EE i nduces them to pay particular attention to that article, and the process on which so much depends for developing the agreeable aromatic properties of that wholesome berry, so as to enable their Friends to indulge in the use of a de lightful beverage at the lowest possible cost. They have erected an Improved Apparatus for Roasting Coffee on the Premises, by which there is a considerable saving in price and improvement in quality. The strength and flavour are retained, which otherwise evaporate ; so by this method they are enabled to sell a better article at a lower cost. They beg to direct attention to the mode they have adopted of Roasting, Grinding, and putting it immediately into One-pound Tin Canisters, which will be found to re tain the fine aroma for a considerable time ; and they deal out a genuine article for the smallest possible profit. LIST OF PRICES. Per lb. Fine Ceylon Coffee.. Fine old East India This will be found on trial a really fine Coffee. Finest Costa Rica .. is. 6d. Very superior flavoured, and much admired by connoisseurs. Finest Jamaica Genuine Mocha The two latter qualities possess that fine aroma so much sought after by judges of the article, and are highly re commended. Twopence will be charged for each Pound Tin Canister containing the Coffee, and will be allowed for when re turned. They particularly recommend the Coffee put into One pound Tin Canisters to families and large consumers, as being decidedly preferable to its being wrapped in paper. Family orders, either by post or otherwise, punctually attended to, and delivered daily, free of carriage, within three miles of the Establishment. T.
