EMPORIUM FOR FOREIGN AND BRITISH SHAWLS,

44 , BOLD-STREET

MR. A. PRINGLE
p ESPECTFULLY tenders his grateful acknowledgments for the patronage bestowed upon him for a
11, period of twenty-one years, and, in retiring from the business, has much pleasure in recommending his successor,
Mr. JAMES MACLENNAN, who has for a long period had the entire management of his Establishment, and trusts that
he may receive a liberal share of favours, feeling assured, from his assiduity acd attention to business, that he will be
found to be deserving of the same.

In reference to the above,
JAMES MACLENNAN
Respectfully intimates to the Ladies of Liverpool that he is now engaged in making preparations, such as the re-decorating
of the Premises, visiting Paris and London; for the RE-OPENING of the ESTABLISHM EN l', which will take place on
or about the Ist of MAY, ►hen he will-be prepared to show a magnificent Stock of every description of

FOREIGN AND BRITISH SHAWLS,
it being his intention to devote his exclusive attention to that department; and he begs special notice to the fact that, as
the entire of Mr. PaiNames Stock was sold by tender, every Article which he will open with will be the newest, the
cheapest, and the most fashionable which he can obtain in Paris and Loudon. He will adopt the same principle in con-
ducting the Establishment which characterised it during the successful career of Mr. PRINOLE, and would respectfully
invite an inspection of his Stock, it being his determination that the greatest attention shall be shown to all his Customers.

NOVELTIES IN FRENCH CACHMERE SHAWLS,
AT JNO. CRIPPS', 14 4. 16, BOLD-MTREBT.

THE NEW TAPIS oft CARPET.WORKED SHAWLS IN BOUQUET OR NATURAL FLOWERS.
TNO. CRIPPS has the honour of announcing to the Ladies of Liverpool, and the Strangers en route,
the termination of another visit to Paris, expressly undertaken for the purpose of making complete his arrangements
with the parties he has employed to weave those beautiful productions; they are especially selected from designs executed
by the hand in the Gobelins of Paris, each separate pattern of which has invol ed years of labour to the inmates of that
Institution. The importance of such a visit at tliia particular period may be estimated by the extraordinary competition,
and consequent changes and improvements, tbecorning Exhibition has wrought in all the various textile fabrics of France,
more particularly in Shawls.

They are now on the Premises in quantities, ready for inspection, and he is prepared to submit to the inspection of
his Customers an amount of novelty acid attraction never before offered by any one House ; and as his new Establishment
is unquestionably the largest for Shawls and Mantles in Europe, so he is determined that his Stock shall bear a corre-
sponding reputation for magnitude.
Oae of the distinctive features of his New Tapia, or Bouquet Shawl, in real Carpet Work, is their immense size,
enveloping the figure in their graceful and ample folds. Another is their undoubted superiority over British in point of
intrinsic worth, while, for style and flowering, they exhibit the most exquisite taste, and are, indeed, a perfect garden of
lowers in miniature.

The New Tapia, or Bouquet Cachmere Shawl, is decidedly the greatest novelty of the last half-century ; and as it is
certain they will be both scarce and dear as the season advances, Ladies will do well to provide themselves from this
magnificent Stock, which in London has no equal. At the same time, Mr. CRIPPS wishes to impress on the minds of his
Customers the fact, that simultaneously with the opening of his large and commodious new Premises, he effected a Reduc-
tion in the scale of his Profits, the success of which has already been amply tested, and now remains a permanent feature.
