fliZ W. SILVER 7rid CO., CLOTHIERS,
V- -7 • NAVAL, MILITARY, and General OUTFITTERS and
CONTRACTORS, respectfully acquaint the Public, that they
have completed the alterations at their Warehouses, 66 and 67,
CORNIIILL, which enables them to concentrate and exhibit all
the requirements of an OUTFIT. Being the Manufacturers (w.th
experienced managers) of the chief and most expensive portions of
OUTFITS, they arc enabled to produce and render them at
WHOLESALE PRICES; thus preventing MILITARY and NAVAL
OFFICERS, CADETS, and PASSENGERS generally sacrifi.:ing the
usual intermediate profit. L OUTFITS (which are under the
management of Females) on similar terms.
SILVER and CO, having a correspondent in nearly every
ENGLISH COLONY, their customers may at all times avail them-
selves of their assistance. SILVER and CO. pack and ship their cus-
tomers' outfits, clear and warehouse their baggage homewards, pro-
cure and give SIIIP-SAILING information outwards or homewards,
without receiving a commission for such business. Moreover, they
do not allow the too usual commission to persons who introduce
customers to them, that purchasers may derive every advantage.
For example, individuals who are about to leave for India are gene-
rally inundated with applications and lists from Outfitters, who ob-
tain the name and address of the party going abroad from
persons to whom they pay (if they supply the Outfit) so large a cons-
minion for the information, as to materially increase the amount of
the Outfit. Now, SILVER and CO. never forward a list of neces-
saries to any one, unless directed to do so by the party (or friend)
going abroad. Thus SILYEIC and CO.'s prices are t burthened with
commission, because all recommendations to apply to theni are pure
and disinterested.
The OUTFITTING WHOLESALE, and RETAIL CLOTHING
DEPARTMENTS, &c., are at 66 and 67, CORNIIILL, and at
LIVERPOOL. The SHIRT DEPARTMENT for home use is at
No. 10, CORNIIILL. The WORKSHOPS for Clothing, at
Bisliopegatc-street Within ; for SHIRTS and CABIN FURNITURE
at 33 and 34, Nassau-place, Commercial-road ; and for minas,
STAYS, BRACES, &c., at LANDPORT, near PORTSMOU lit.

grants.

TO THE PUBLIC.
" Look on this picture, and on Ms."— Shakspeare.
As now another year is passed away,
MOSES and SOS their wonted tribute pay;
And freely own, with gratitude sincere,
The many favours of another year.
Oft have their warm acknowleagments been made,
For vast success, and glorious public aid ;
But never did such staunch support appear,
As that which honoured the departed year.
Sluing, summer, autumn, winter, bear fresh proof,
I.)r crowding throngs beneath their trading roof.
When Je.nuary's frosts were keenly felt,
Thousamist with MOSES liberally dealt ;
And Winter Overcoats, to suit the cold,
Were purchased at their Warehouse million-fold.
In February's month. and blust'ring March,
'rho public sought the Emporium's lofty arch.
In fickle April, and in milder May,
MUSES and SON'S Spring dresses bore the sway.
In pleasant June, and changeable July,
Vast multitudes were daily seen to buy ;
And such supporters failed not to remember
The City Mart In August and September.
And in October's month did thousands press.
At MOSES' Mart for matchless Autumn dress.
In dull November, and Deeember, too,
MOSES and SON were ever kept in view.
And thus did new encouragements appear
Throughout the circle of the by-past year :
Not only In attire, but boots and shoes,
And also in the furs which ladies use ;
And throngs of buyers might we daily see,
Obtainining flest-class Hats at Eighty-three.
In Hosiery and matchless outfits too,
The trade at MOSES' Warehouse daily grew.
The glorious marks of favour thus presented,
Proclaim the by-gone year unprecedented.
'Twas truly pleasing to behold a throng,
Crowding the spacious Warehouse all day long;
Wblle all the current coins, with constant jingle,
Amid the busy stir were heard to mingle.
Igor was it any sight to cause a frown,
While orders for bespoke were putting down.
Swift went the knibs, and *tiers swiftly teak,
And very swiftly filled each order-book.
The Cutting-room at MOSES' mart has been.
" A cutting sight"—an ever-busy scene.
No time for idleness—no lengthy leisure,l
Could here be had for cutter, shears, or MeitSUre:
All was activity in every part, •
And business "ruled the roast" at MOSES' Mart.
Though scarcity of money roused alarm,
MOSES and SON sustained no trading harm.
No ; on the contrary, as people found.
The real value of a current pound,
They flocked to MOSES' Mart, assured that there,
Unmatched economy is brought to bear.
What now remains ? A task devolves on MOSES,
Now Eighteen Forty-seven for ever closes.
Most heartily do Messrs. MOSES tender
Their thanks for what a generous public render.
But thanks ten thousand times they might repeat,
And leave the task of thanking incomplete.
Yet, happily, they've more that they can state,
And thus they're led to Eighteen Forty-eight.
In Eighteen Forty-eight they mean to steer
Beyond the bounds of each succeeding year.
The recent purchases which they have made,
Will add new benefits to all their trade.
When all the markets were depressed, they bought
For moderate sums their cloths superbly wrought.
They saw the opportunity, and now,
A most immense redaction they allow.
Such are the benefits which here await
Tho purchaser of Eighteen Forty-eight.
May MOSES and the public ever be,
On pleasing terms of trading unity ;
May both the buyers and the sellers find,
That all their mutual interests are combined ;
And may the friends of MOSES (small aad groat)
Enjoy, in every possible estate,
A happy year in Eighteen Forty-eight.

31 One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, er a
sense of right determine the fernier, and miscalculatea hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
coaaprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement: Honour and justice demised that health_ should form an item
In the compact; it alone dignities the alliauce. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty er misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CUIVERWELL'S little
ME34OIRS On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is.
each (by pest, in stamps, is. 6d. each). Let ne imaginatively
Paned, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
ay misinterpretatior, of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the crapyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post Is. Gd.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " liow to be llappy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library voleme, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—tn do unto others as be
would be done unto—to live attar nature's laws—and to keep always
on the "sunny side of the way." The above works way be had of
Sherwood, 23, Paternoster-row ; Carvalho, 147, Fleet-street Mann,
39, Conthill ; Nitisoll, 457, West Strand ; or direct (by post or other-
Wise) from the author (who nay be conferred with personally,
