ply OF Staple and Fancy, European, India, and American

VIII constitute the largest supply we have ever had at one
uine' ami such an one as we think will be found worthy

virginia. The purchase and importation of so large a sup.
ply, in the very embarrassed state in which the country
mas oeen, have required about as great efforts rs we have
ever made. The whole was undertaken and effected. from
a desire and determination Of meeting any demand which
might be experienced here aud in the hope, as the inn.

make the inducements to all who may come here 10 pur.
chase, as great as they can be made. We have said more
ON TINS subject than we should have done, because oil in
umauons we have received, that from the very embarrass-

In the country, that there would be few or no goods of
consequence received here ioT The Fall-and for the pur.
