THE TIMES AMORE important period than the present for purchasing unquestionably EXCELLENT, USEFUL, AND SUPERIOR GENERAL DRAPERY has never occurred arising from the peculiar juncture of tl:me-is6lvertiil agencies which have had the most alarming, general, and distressing in fluence upon commercial operations. PUBLIC CALAMITIES, or the causes that check' the tide of national prosperity and happiness, are not grateful subjects upon which to dwell ; but it must be a matter of deep regret to all possessed of enlarged and benevolent views to witness the disastrous consequences re- have involved themselves in RAILWAY DIFFICULTIES, which paralyze the manufacturing energies of the country, and leave yet untold many a fearful tale of deplorable and utter ruin. Casualties against which human sagacity affords no pro tection, such as the yre 3ent MONETARY EMBARRASSMENTS, together with the almost unexampled duration of MILD AND UNSEASONABLE WEATHER, have caused large Stocks of Winter Goods to ramain on hand, high, in order to prevent further depreciation in value, must be cleared off at such prices as must induce purchases, not only for present, hut ANTICIPATED NECESSITIES To many unconnected with Trade this may be difficult of comprehension : to the man of business it is too painfully JOHN BRISCOE, 60 8- 62, OLDHALL-STREET, has secured several extensive Lots of Goods that have been recklessly thrown into the London markets by various Maim facturers, alarmed at the late POLITICAL CRISIS, and which are now offered for sale at prices that bear no rela tion to real value. A quotation of Prices, it is to be regretted, as used by the mass of advertisers, is generally fallacious, but the following brief enumeration will furnish a slight medium by which to judge of the advantages and general character of the Goods now offered : CHIOCE SPITALFIELDS DUCAPES: AND TURCS, IN CHECKED, STRIPED, PLAIN, AND SHOT, From 18e. per Yard FASHIONABLE TARTAN SCARF SHAWLS, at 7:. 10d Superior GALA PLAIDS, ALL WIDTHS, from 63d COBURG ORLEANS, AND MERINOS, IN FIGURED, STRIPED, and SHADED, at 9d.
