These Dresses, so highly approved in Paris, and all the Evening
Parties of the beau monde, may now be seen during the Selling Off at
this Establishment.

Some of the less lavishly decorated will he sold at Eighteen Shil-
lings the Dress, but it must be recollected that this will be less than
half the real value, and the same remark will apply to Vie Silks,
Shawls, Mantles, and Family Linen, which, through the retirement
from business of Mr. Merrett, must be sold immediately.

PRYING INTO THE FUTURE. Young
Lsdies are not the only persons who have wished to pry into
the mysterious volume of the future, for Alexander hinged his enthu-
!dam on similar circumstances. It may be innocent enough to
amuse ourselves with the prospect of reaping a golden harvest from
dreams of hope ; but in these days of practical affairs, and business
in earnest, every one has a right to expect " Value for Value."
The matter of fact realities of One Thousand Eight Hundred and
Fifty-Three are possibly the best interpreters of the events of 1854,
for we may all take the credit to ourselves of being able to tell what
'we already know; and the fortunes of the future may be very well
Calculated by the successes of the past, and it is even possible that
cur expectations may be surpassed in the onward progress of bust-
Bess, that the bright prospects of the future be rendered more satis-
factory in reality, than they were in the representations of imagina-
tion. It is one of the most amiable features of the human race, that
every individual Lady, Gentleman, or Child should possess an am-
bition to excite an influence in the circle higher than that in which •
they move and, it is Dress in Style, Neatness and Excellence,which
terms the primary chain to this social elevation.
Taking steps which no other tradesman ever ventured to ascend,
and holding a position on an eminence which none but themselves
could occupy, E. oSES AND SON have the greatest pleasure in in-
viting their friends and the public to "pry into the future," and to
Campers the advantages of the past, with the certainties of what
mast follow ; they have long supported the title universally bestowed
en them of being the largest Merchant Tailors, Clothiers, Hatters,
Hosiers, Boot and Shoe Makers, and Outfitters in the World, they
have extended the benefits of new styles and artistic designs to all
Classes, with the precision employed on the manufacture of attire
for the peer, they have prepared suitable dress for the artisan,
labotrer, and emigrant. The progress of refinement, the improve-
Mews of manufacture, the revelations of science, and the influence
of capital, they have exercised to the fullest extent in rendering
their productions the most novel, the most comfortable, the most
fashionable, and the cheapest which can be obtained.
The business ofE. MOSES AND SON has the speed of the railway,
with none of its accidents--the correctness of art, without any of its
ImPerfections—the regularity of time, but free from its obliterations
-the universality of light, but never subject to a periodical eclipse
--and well has the public repaid the diligence, skill, and assiduity
'Which has been displayed by E. MOSES AND Sow, by unprecedented
Paironage of the City and West-end Establishments, and their
branches at Sheffield and Bradford in Yorkshire.
Per E. Moses AND Sow to say thethank their patrons and the
Public, would be a very inefficient way of dismissing the favours
they h
have to acknowledge, they cherish an indissoluble remembrance
of the unnumbered instances of public approba ion, expressed both
,1,1 favour of their system of Business, and of the articles they have
"ad the pleasure of presenting to all classes during the past year, and
they are determined to give a most Businesslike expression to their
Crateful recognition of these favours by providing every thing in the
several departments of their gigantic business, infin tely better and
Cheaper than it is possible for others to do. Entering on another
Year under circumstances so encouraging, E. Moses AND SON have
briefly to state
fin , that
Ladies will d the most varied and magnificent assortment of
Dress at their Establishment ; and Hosiery Goods for Ladies, Gen-
tlemen, and Children, distinguished by unparalleled novelty, elegance,
Utility, tied cheapness.
The Nobleman, Man of Business, or Mechanic, will still be pro-
Sided with the most fashionable, moat seasonable, and the cheapest
Attire, either Ready-made or to
Order,
Merchants, Shipper=, Captains, Emigrants, or Sailors, will con-
tinue to derive the highest advantages from transactions at the Es-
tablishment of E. Moses and Sow; the former, from the vastness,
Suitability, and cheapness of the Wholesale Stock, and the latter
from the completeness of their Outfitting Business, which applies to,
every service Military or Naval—to every profession and occupation
to all the necessities of any voyage, and to every exigency of a
(rein elbeate.
The moat stupendous success in London and the provinces is not
the only record which E. Moses and Sots have to make of the past
year. A new world having been created for commercial enterprise
by Australian gold discoveries, E. MOSES and SUN have identified
their business with our antipodes, by opening a magnificent store in
Melbourne—this is another auxiliary to their gigantic trade, and puts
them in constant communication with that colony—(to which, as
'well as other parts) they have outfitted incredible numbers, and are
silly prepared to outfit thousands more with far greater advantages
n the quality, suitability, and cheapness of the goods.
In conclusion, the wide world's population will possess still further
facilities of being furnished with the best, most artistic, most fashion-
able, most comfortable, and the cheapest goods, at the establtshment
of E. Moses and filoN, at its branches, New Oxford-street, corner of
Hart-street, London ; and Fargate, Sheffield ; also, Bridge street,
Bradford, Yorkshire. In an impartial and accurate review of their
business Prosperity at home and abroad, on a just calculation of the
ONg
benefits derived from it by countless thousands, and anticipatin
those advantages becoming still more extensive, E. Moses and S
aka toordlally and ardently wish all their patrons and everybody.
