GREAT SELLING OFF, by Mr. FOSTER, the
ACCOUNTANT.

MR. FOSTER has instructions to submit for
SALE,.in Lots, as prepared for Auction, 27,000/.,worth
of LINEN DRAPERY GOODS, being the Stock adver-
tised for Auction on the Premises, CORNER of FLEET-
STREET and. FARRINGDON-STREET, trading under
the firm of HE BBLEWHJTE and CO., hoticC having Wei
given that an auction is not permitted by the lease.
Mr. Foster, in calling attention to this immense sale of goods,
begs to remind:ladies and families that they are not expected to
realise more than half the original cost, the object being to clear
the whole off th e premises, and any portion remaining must of
necessity be removed to his Auction-rooms. Ladies are soli-
cited to make ai'lowances for the awkwardness of the assistants,
being mostly ycmung men from his office, consequently unused
to this method e f selling goods over the counter.
The following is about the reductions intended to be made.
The linens being the larger portion, will be reduced as under:—
s. d.

730 pieces of Irish linen, mostly Knox's make, that cost
from Is. 6d. :to 2s. 2d. per yard, ladies may choose
from all, at 26 yards, for
About 850 of hr..s curiously fine numbers, worth from
2s. 9d. to 3s. 3sl. per yard, will be likewise reduced
to 26 yards for
1,600 or more pieces; that are soiled, amongst which are •
some warranted fabrics, will be reduced to 26 yards for 21 0
The sheetings and table-linen require particular notice. The
respectable family trade carried en for thirty years at the eta-
blishment rendered it necessary to keep isone but fine and war-
ranted goods, consequently ladies will not be subjected to the
chances usual on sellimg off stocks of risking the durabiliity.
Fifty pieces of linen sheeting are reduced to be sold in the
length only at 4s. 6d. to 10s. 6d. the pair, those at lOs. 6d.
being three yards wide, and real Barnsley manufacture, having
originally cost 2s. 9d. per yard. Should the length be found in
convenient a further reduction will be mada in the price. The
tablecloths, although of the finest description, are mostly soiled,
consequently the reduction must be immense. Some superb
damask cloths, three yards long, will be sold as low as 6s. 6el.
each ; lots of good linen breakfast cloths will be marked from
Is. to 2s. 6d. each, and about 130 cloths, from three to six
yards long, many ws,rth three to four guineas, will be sold none
higher than fifty shil lings. s. d.
The blankets will be sold, two yards long (larger sizes in
proportion), the pair .. 4 0
A kit of blankets, that weigh eight pounds, will be sold,
the pair
A bale of counterpanes, many near three yardslong, will
be sold, all each
About 800 expensive quilts, that cost 21.0. to 255., will
be all sold, each........ lO 6
160 dozen of cambric handkerchiefs, worth is. 9d. each, _

will be sold by the cloy Tit, only at ............... 9 6
A lot of lawn ditto, will ;be reduced to, the dozen 4 9
Horrock's long cloths, u sually sold to the trade at 6d
per yard, will be sold, •10 yards for... l2 6
Prints will be reduced al 1 under 4s. 6d. the dress, to 2 6
All Sherriffs and Cobden's best prints, usually so expen-
sive, will be sold, the dress 4 0
1,400 shawls, and 9001. worth of rich silks will be sold at any
reasonable price that may be offered.
Mr. Fester would not have midertakon the sale had he not
felt satisfied of the character of t be goods to be sold, and ladies
may depend that every article will fully answer the description
given in this advertisement, or at the time of sale. The prin-
cipal part of the stock having been kept in their wholesale ware-
houses, will be found in good condition, and any person buying
in large quantities, no obstacle will exist in the way of price ;
also a liberal discount will be allowcsi off the bill when it ex-
ceeds 101.

Mr. Foster particularly directs the attention of families re-
quiring Carpets—many superb patterns in rich Brussels will
be sold without reference to the cost, go,vd qualities at 2s. 6d.
and 2s. 9d. per yard ; several lots of goo d wide Kiddermin-
ster. excellent qualities, Is. 4d. and ls.
The Foreign Tablecloths are now on &ie.
All Letters, containing a remittance, st.xictly attended to,
and in conclusion, Mr. Foster begs to add that he will not
allow on these premises any article to be sold. but what is per-
fect,' and that he can feel justified in warranting.
Observe, the sale is nor on at Hehblewlsite's Warehouse,
105, Fleet-street, corner of Faringdon-street. Omnibuses pass
every minute from all parts of the town. it 'will be found most
convenient for Carriages to set down in Farrit,gdon-street.
