TO BUYERS OF

WOOLLEN

G o_o D S,

(WHOLESALE AND RETAIL.)
WE beg to intimate that our SPRING STOCK is
now complete ; and we feel confident, should we
be favoured with a call. that our Styles and Prices would
induce you to purchase largely.
Having taken advantage of the late flat season, and
visited the West of England and Yorkshire Markets at
times when cash buyers were scarce, we have no hesita-
tion in stating that our present Stock, which is unusually
lane, is considerably cheaper than the present manufac-
turers' prices.
In SUPERFINE BROAD CLOTHS our T. M. has
been particularly careful in selecting only such goods as
we can with the utmost confidence recommend. On very
low-priced goods there is certainly a small advance, but
middle and superfi.te qualities are quite as cheap, if not
cheaper, than at any former time.

Tire FANCY TitiItISERING Department contains
every novelty in Doeskins, Tweeds, and Cassimeres ; also
a great variety of Merinos, Gambroons, Drills, &c.
In FANCY \VAISTCOATINGS we have almost every
new design in French and British manufacture.
The extent of our recent purchases, combined with the
immense variety of Fancy Goods, render our present
Stock unusually inviaing •• a larger, cheaper, or superior
Stodi of WOOLLEN GOODS will not be found, not
only in Liverpool, but in the Nletr•polis. •
The greet increase of our WHOLESALE 11. BADE
has encouraged us to a corresponding effort to render our
[louse worthy of the support we continue to receive; and
we now feel persuaded, should you favour us with a visit,
or entrust us with your orders, it would be the means of
extending that confidence which has hitherto been so
largely bestowed upon us.
We are, your obedient Servants,
W. AND T. MORRIS,
so, LORD-STREET.
