CARVING AND GILDING IN ALL ITS BRANCHES.
In this department will be tbund a very elegant and extensive variety
of Chimney and I'ier Glass Frames, Cornices for Windows, Ornamental
T.,bles and Furniture, and richly mounted Frames in various sizes for
Portraits, Paintings, &c. Paintings and Prints mounted, framed, and
regilt.
PAPER HANGING, AND INTERIOR DECORATIONS
in all its branches, from the most simple to the first style of elegance. A
rich variety of new patterns on show.

IN THE UPHOLSTERY ARRANGEMENT
the greatest attention is paid to unite elegance with economy in character
fur the drawing-mom, boudo:r, dining-room, library, and bed-chambers,
from the most quiet to the most co tly styles. In the various articles of
chintzes, moreens, damasks, silks, &c. A great variety of the most splen_
did and novel styles arc constantly on vi..w of these qualities which can
alone insure permanent satisfaction ; the extreme disparity in prices in
these articles, mainly arises from the inferiority of the fabric.
CABINET, CHAIR, AND SOFA WORK,
manufactured of the most seasoned materials. Int he finish of Chairs,
Sofas, &c., much depends on the quality of the materials used, and the
workmanship. It may not,be unworthy of remark that a similar effect
may be produced at a saving of nearly one half, but which in the wear
must eventually prove a serious disappointment to the purchaser. This
applies also to the manufacture of Cabinet Goods, which from being made
of unseasoned materials and unsound work (that cannot be detected by
the casual observer), can never be of that service and durability so es-
sential. H. L. C. begs to add that he manufactures them on his own pre-
mises, and has always on hand a large stock of well seasoned materials,
which enables him to produce work at the 1 .west possible rate, and of a
superior quality.
STEAM and SAILING VESSELS promptly fitted up ;with CABIN
