THE EAST and NORTH at WAR.—
There is nothing more probable than a severe struggle be-
tween the forces of the East and the Powers of the North. War is
frequently denounced as the consumers of life and property, but
there are some contests which preserve the former in the greatest
comfort., and are the means of increasing the latter in a surpassing
degree.
The East and West-end powers of E. Mons and Sox are concen-
trated to resist the unpleasant invasions of North winds and all in-
auspicious seasons. and the success their new Attire for Autumn and
Winter will have is past calculation ; suffice it to say, all the fabrics
that Art and Manufacture can produce hive been carefully selected.
All that skill and experience c uld introduce for novelty and com-
fort has been incorporated for the production of Winter Attire, such
as is destined to surpass that of any previous seat on ; and while vll
classes may avail themselves of the most fashionable and the
cheapest Clothing ever offered, the vast stock just prepared by E.
Mons
and SON will afford admirable opportunities for selecting the
