THE 'EXPENSES OF THE WAR.
The enthusiastic manner in vrhich the Forces let t their native
land to fight the battles of freedom and commerce, will not suffer us
to shrink from the responsibilities ehich will arise from the under-
bikini; though, at a time of scarcity and high prices, it will be an
ineenvenience to ell classes.
The increased Inenme-tax may seem very unweicome, but the
outlay will be refunded the most ample and satistactory manner
to all patinas of the establishment of E. IVIOSEs & FON, and their

An immense variety of Novelties are ready, and ethers in conrse

tages which no other house could secure will be assn sated in the
magnificent display made by E. Moses and FoN in eiegant >ttire

all previously exhibited, the prices are considerably lower than those
