WOOLLEN GOODS,
AT W. AND T. MORRIS'S
WOOLLEN WAREHOUSE,
30, LORD-STREET.
WE have this day received several • •Trered Pieces
of Woollens. Our present St. • is by far the most
extensive in Liverpool. We are n • aware of any House in
England who keep. so large an -sortment, and we feel the
utmost confidence in stating t there is not a House in the
Kingdom which is able • isposed to serve WHOLESALE
BUYERS ON MORE AD NTAOEOUS TERMS. We would call
particular attention t • •ur present Stock of
PILOT CLOTH" warranted pure Wool.
BEAVERS a.. OTHER MATERIALS for OVER COATS,
Ditto, and Waterproofed, in all Colours.
DEVONSHIRE KERSEYS, ditto, in all Colours.
WITNEYS and ALPACA CLOTHS, shrunk.
WEST OF ENGLAND DOESKINS,
FRENCH DITTO, Double and Treble
Milled.
SCOTCH TWEEDS,
SATIN & VELVET VESTINGS, several Lots at Half-price.
OCHER VESTINGS, in immense variety.
P.S.—We would caution Purchasers of Pilot Cloths and
Beavers to examine into the Strength of the Cloths, as three-
fourths of what are manufactured and sold in the Yorkshire
Markets are made chiefly of shoddy, or devil's dust,—and,
although they appear fine to the eye, they are, in reality, quite
tender, and can give no service to the wearer.
