MR. HODGSON respectfully invites the attention of the
Public to his SPLENDID assortment of every
description of

FURNITURE,
AT HIS DEPOT, IN CHURCH-STREET,
which is allowed to be the most extensive in Liverpool, and
excelled by few in the Metropolis; the Mart thus affording
to the purchasers the best opportunity of securing
HOUSEHOLD GOODS AND EFFECTS
ON THE MOST ADVANTAGEOUS TERMS,
as every article which domestic comfort can require or wealth
command is exhibited to the visitor in infinite variety.
The Rooms are unusually lofty, giving facilities for the
display of every description' of Goods.. In measurement the
first Sale-room exceeds 90 feet by 20 feet, and the Anti-room
70 feet by 17 feet, together with a spacious Warehouse con-
tiguous, which, having the advantage of being on the ground-
floor, are better calculated for Sales of Household Furniture,
Manufacturers' Stocks, Glass, China, &c. In addition to
which, Mr. HODGSON has recently built a commodious
PICTURE GALLERY at the rear of his Premises, Church-
street, (with dome lights &c., essential for the proper display
of HIGH CLASS PAINTINGS,) for the reception of

His long experience in the business he submits as a guarantee
for every attention to their interests, assuring those who way
have occasion to purchase, that the practice too frequently
adopted of procuring New.Furnitute, manufactured by un-
skilled artificers, is, in very many cases, attended with an
immense pecuniary sacrifice in the first instance, and a serious
loss eventually, from inattention to the material by the
manufacturer.
