EAST AND WEST, TWO HEMISPHERES OF TRADE..
We are ;la accustomed to symbolise ; but the progress of the sun
of civilisation, manufacture, science, and literature from east to west,
and the concentration of power, influence, riches. and skill in the
western nations is illustrated in the commercial transactions of E.
Moses and Son. Their magnificent business career commenced in
the east of the metropolis and 'extended over the known world, and
at the urgent request of their friends, patrons, and the public, they
'founded a branch at the west end. There, and at the Parent Esta-
blishment, they have continued to furnish the most seasonable, the
most fashionable, and the best Dress for all classes at the most eco-
nomical prices.
Winter Attire, Overcoats, Paletots, Waterproof Dress. Juvenile
Clothing. Uniforms, Liveries, Ladies' Habits, costumes fer all sta-
tions and professions, the Working Man's and the Seaman's clothing
being provided with the same industry, at prices never imitated. In
conjunction with 'the Tailoring and Ready-made Clothing bnsiness,
E. Moses and Son have long had the lead as Hosiers and shirt
manufacturers. To their Branch Establishment, New Oxford-
Street, they have added a Hosiery Department, which cannot be
equalled for extent, magnificence, novelty, and splendour of stock ;
it affords advantages too numerous for detail, but which will he
highly appreciated by the nobility, gentry, and the public, as such
Hosiery Goods may there be selected as cannot be obtained else-
where.
. Merchants, Captains, and Emigrants derive the greatest advan-
tages from investments in the ITholesale Clothing, Boot and Shoe,
and Shirt Department, at E, Moses and Son's.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against inaposition,havin; learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have
