A ADDRESS
The Public, by this time, must he aware of the fact that E.
MOSES and SON, at the conclusion of each year, make a iTactice
of reviewing the progress which they may have aiade, and of ac-
knowledging the same in a plain business address to their supporters.
If such, however, were not the general practice of the proprietors,
there would be every reason, on thi present occasion, to issue a "spe-
cial circular" as an acknowledgment for those obligationslwhich have
been so apparent in the year 1819.
A glance at the past twelve months is sufficient to convince the
proprietors that their Establishment is daily rising in the estimation
of a discerning public.
To no period can E. :110:ES and SON rarer hi:which every en-
couragement has not been affordeitto them.
Each of the four wiccessive seasons of the year has had its amount
of public favour, and no declension er fluctuation has at any Ili%
been apparent. Among the records of the past year must be name
the establishment of Two Branch llouses (the one in Sheffield, and
the other in Bradford), and the partial completion of a Metropolitan
Branch !louse at the West End.

It is scarcely necessary to allude to the circumstances which led
to these steps being taken. The name of the proprietors being every-
where known and approved, a most extensive country connexion
was the necessary conseqience ; and as two favourable opporunities
presented themse ves, the proprietors availed themselves of the
same; and studied, thereby, their own interests mutual), with
those of their supporters. The inconvenience of distance was at
once rem ived, and the advantages accruing frotn a purchase of
MOSES and SON'S dress secured to numbers who otherwise could
not, without sending to town, have realised the same.
The Bradford Branch House has now been in operation for nearly
twelve months; and so successfel has it proved throughout this
period, thst E. MOSES and SON flint it difficult to express their
feelings of satisfaction and gratitude under the encouraging eircum-
I /mem It was considered by many persons who were witne.ses
of the opening and subsequent scenes at this llouse, that the suc-
cess attendant on the speculation was without precedent in the
annals of trade.
What has been said concerning the Bradford Branch Is, in every
sense, applicable to that at Sheffield, which has been established
nine months. To imagine that anything short of real merit could
have produced all this, would c. rtainly be a cenclus on not at all
warrante by reason. The perchases made on the opening days at
these Branch Establishments would have soon caused a diminution
of
asllyupport, had net sound quality and general superiority been
re apparent. So satisfactory, however, were the goods obtained
—so thoroughly were all nromises fulfilled, as to qualty and cheap-
P4,5,a, that all classes in these imperant localities rallied rouad the
Proprietors, and heartily backed the speculations with their cmii-
tenanee and support.
It has already been stated that the Metropolitan Branch, in the
Rest
End, which will be opened in the Spring, is the result of an
increasing public demand for the goods supplied by the Proprietors.
Such is a correct statement. Nothing but a positive assurance that
melt an extension is really required would have led E. MOSES and
SON to have added thus to their London speculations, which, apart
Tom that under consideration, had no equal in the world.
Not to acknowledge obligations so essential would be tantamonnt
:o a forfeiture of nll future favours. But E. MO-E 3 and SON are
•esolved to convince the public, both by word and action, that their
tumerous favours are grateful:y received.
The Proprietors hold out no false hopes to the public, when
dating, that the year 1850 will be distinguished for improvements
ind advantages on a scale more advantageous than has ever yet been
!xperienced. It is by this means alone that E. MOSES and SON
tope to secure future support from those who have so liberally a deg
Item. The Proprietors might particularise those arrangements for
be coining seasons which arc already ill progress.
They have In pr paration a stock of Spring and Summer Dress,
which, for cheapness, utility, and elegance, was never surpassed.
[hey would also impress upon the notice of the public those variene
trticles which ore now on sale for the winter season. They have
to he.itation in asserting that such an assortment is not to be met
vith ellewheee in the trade.
E. MOSES and SON, in conclusion, would wish all classes of
heir supporters in every sense " a happy new year"—a year free
rom these party international broils abroad, and those poThical dis •
elisions at home, which cannot fail to operate inimically with our
,unmereial trading and domestic well being. The proprietors trust
hat those who aid them, together with those who are not numbered
tmong their supporters, may have to declare, when the clock strikes
v•eivs on the night of the 31st of December next, that the year
;7,0 has proved .e them a year of uninterrupted peace, prosperity.

are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify.

for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the
convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to form
a deduction from the claim on the Policy ; and as the As-
surance may be relinquiebed at any time without payment
of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to
assure for the first five years at time more than half the usual rate,
and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice.

of s creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the

GRIM.S TONE'S AROMATIC
REGENERATOR.
If you are in want of that beautiful adornment of the human
figure, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or
of any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer, an 11+.
bottle of Grimstones Aromatic Regenerator. This is an essential
spirit, drawn Cram aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Her-
bary, Highgate), which has been long known to the nobility and
gentry, by whom it in highly appreciated for its manifold virtues, too
numerous to be set forth in an advertisement, but may be read in his
pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed,

Mich pamphlet has the signature of William Grimstone, Merchant,
Herbary, Highgate, and will he found at, page 11, un•fer the copy of
Mrs. Weekly's Letter to the Editor of the "Times" newspaper, 7th
of August, 1846.
_ _ . . _

This pamphlet is forwarded through thu post, on receiving two
postage stamps. . _ _

The Arounitic Regenerator can be forwarded through the post on
receiving a post office order for 4s. Gd., 7e. ad., or ids., which in-
cludes the postage with the case.

The I I s.'size Contains four of the 4s.
A few of its many virtues, as thousands can prove, are published
In the pamphlet enclosed with each bottle.

Reader, reflect for a few minutes, and if you are 40 years of age,
you will remember the thousands of blind you meet with in your
walks, others with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was
the demand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re-
moved those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward,
clear-sighted people (the climate is the same) ? I'll tell you the cause
—the universal use of Grimstone's Eye Snuff! and because it cured
Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, Qatar ,ct, Nervous Beadach, and Deaf-
ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi-
cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67
cases of cure being proved by the informers, still it was an act of
oppression; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq.,
altered the label, and sanctioned its sale under order of the Lords of
the Treasury; the letter of protection, signed by Berries, V sq., to
Mr. William Grimstone, bearing date 18th February, 1525. This was
on account (,f its curative qualities, being sold at that time in canis-
ters, within the reach of every poor family. But tinder this order of
Government it is obliged to be stamped.
