BILLS OF LADING STAMPED IN ONE DAY.
GEORGE I\I`CORQUODALE explained in his Cir-
cular, of the 27th ult., the manner in which his
attempts to give facilities not previously enjoyed in Liver-
pool were opposed by the Stamp-office, in the Old Church-
yard. He has now to refer to a Second Change in the
Regulations of that Office, the discontinuance of charging
Three-halfpence for each Transfer Form.
GEORGE M'CORQUODALE believes these instances of a
Public Office competing with a Private Individual to be
unprecedented. But having availed himself more fully
of the privileges of his License by keeping for sale Trans-
fer Stamps, which, until 4 or 5 days after he commenced
the business, had never been sold by any dealer in Liver-
pool, he appeals to the Public for support, assuring them,
that, if he meets with encouragement, the accommo-
dation he has been the humble instrument of placing
within their reach will be permanent. G. WC. begs
to remind Merchants, Brokers, and others, that he re-
ceives Bills of Lading a ,c 1 other Papers for being
Stamped till Seven o'clock every Saturday evening, re-
turning them free of any charge beyond the Stamp, on
Tuesday morning, at Nine o'clock.
BILL, DEED, and RECEIPT STAMPS sold free of
charge for Paper or Printing. Stamps above £l2 to
order.

CEILING CENTRE FLOWERS

A COLLECTION of nearly Two Hundred CEILING
IX FLOWERS, in Bielefeld's PAPIER MACHE, are
now ON VIEW, and ready for immediate delivery. Their
advantages over every other material are universally ac-
knowledged, and the general use of Gas in Drawing and
Dining Rooms render them an essential ornament. They
are fixed in a few minutes, and can be again removed, if
required.

RICHMOND'S WHOLESALE AND RETAIL
WOOLLEN WAREHOUSE,
No. 3, PARADISE-STREET,
TWO DOORS PROM CIIURCEI•STREET.

RICHMOND, in calling the attention of the Inha-
v) * bitants of Liverpool and its vicinity to the above
Establishment,' begs to refer to his Address issued last
Autumn, in which he pledged himself to do a Woollen
Trade on a system never before attempted in this town—
namely, to supply every description of Woollen Goods
at a small per-centage on the manufacturers' prices, for
cash only; at the same time he promised to sell none but
good Goods.
That he has fulfilled his promise, that he has redeemed
his pledge, and that his exertions have been duly appre-
ciated, the extensive patronage, accompanied by assu-
rances of satisfaction from his customers, sufficiently
testify.
J. R. has now the pleasure to announce that his WIN-
TER STOCK is ready for inspection, and will be found
well worthy the attention nor only of the Retail but also
of every Wholesale Buyer who, doing business on J. R.'s
terms, wishes to save the expense of visiting the Yorkshire
or West of England Markets: That Woollen Goods are
higher, and that the Market is still a rising one, there can
be no doubt, yet, in consequence of an early visit, and
making large pu•chases for Cash, 3. R. is in a position
to offer his New Stock at Old Prices, and in some in-
stances cheaper than at any former period. The Stock
consists of every variety of the newest designs in Vesting:
and Trowserings, in every Material in which they can be
produced ; superfine Broad Cloths, in every shade of co-
lour; also, an endless Stock of Waterproof Tweeds,
Beavers, Pilots, and other Materials for Over Garments,
Shooting Coats, iSrc. Special attention is directed to a
large and carefully-selected Stock of Wool Black Cloths.
Doeskins, and Cassirneres, an inspection of which will
prove to the Purchaser that high Prices are not necessary
for the possession of a first-rate Article. In conclusion,
J. R. wishes to reiterate what he has before said, that he
is determined to render himself as celebrated for the good
quality of every Article as for the small profit for which
he sells it.

Every Article for BOOT AND SH OEM AKERS.
TAILORS' TRIMMINGS, at Wholesale Prices.

Youth as an APPRENTICE.
