COMPTON HOUSE.

Unlike any other Stock J.. M., and Co. have had the Oppor-
tunity of submitting to their Friends the Departments are less
numerous, but the character and style of the Goods much more
costly and e;egant, doing credit to the taste which selected
them for that superior description of trade to which " Bold-
street" lays claim. _ _ _

The present depressed state of almost every business, whe-
ther foreign or domestic, is unfortunately too well known ; to
force, therefore, such (foods as thes‘, on the market must ne-
cessarily entail a very serious sacrifice, as will be seen by the
Prices at which the whale of this Stock will be Sold. It con-
sists of

SILKS.—This portion of the Stock is not large, but of a choice
and superior character, suited for Dinner,
Walking. or Carriage Dress ; and some idea
mail be formed of the great reduction from the
following quotations:—
Those Dresses previously offered at
7 Guineas are now marked 4 Guineas.

SHAWLS.—This Department comprises One-third of the entire
Stock, and is worthy the special attention of
Gentlemen wishful to make a handsome present
at a comparatively small cost.
A considerable portion, namely, ALL WOOL,
both in Longs and Squares, is suitable to the
Season fast passing. '1 he prices of these, there-
fore, will indeed be tempting; as will also the
rich Cashmere, French. and China Crape. Those
marked by Mr. Scurfield
15 Guineas will now be sold for 8 ;
PI„ 12 PI 7;
4 2 •

and the other p-ortion in similar ratio.
ALL WOOL—Although these Goods may fairly be considered
PLAIDS. a staple Article of the Trade, and therefore not
liable to the fluctuations in value of either the
before-mentioned Departments, nevertheless, as
the Winter is so far advanced, the prices will
be found to little exceed One-half what they can
be sold for when purchased ordinarily.
CLOAKS.—These being particularly for Winter wear, all are
of a comfortably warm wrapper description, and,
in order to make a speedy clearance, are marked
just One-half their Value.
MANTLES—Among these will be found some of the most
and Rare and Novel Designs, very much diversified
VISITES. in character, from the Rich Fur-trimmed, lined
with Silk, and handsomely quilted, to the lighter
description more adapted to the coming season,
being fully as great a reduction in price as any
other portion of the Stock.
