I FIXOR some time, he Undersigned has
/ R been paving the way Cor an animal
publication, in book form. chat should be
particularly adapted to the wants Ola busi-
ness community; one in which Merchants
and others might publish their cards, al
a cost comparatively insignificant to each
but forming, in the aggregate, a sum sufH-
cieh, to justify The publisher 10 devoting
the attention requisite 10 insure a wide.
extended circulation lh the statcs where
their principal business may lie, and, al the
same time as permanent as extensive.
Al first an almanac was published, TO
which advertisements we're from year 70
year appended until my Southwestern Al
manac for 1886 contained ten pages Of ad
veriisements from New Orleans, Na,cbcz.
Vicksburg and Columbus, with a circulation
of about 5000. Now, for 1887, more ad-
yertisements are already received, from
New Orleans, Natchez, Grand Gulf Port
Gibson, Vicksburg, Satariia, Manchester,
&c, &c. Owing to this increase, and the
prospect Of more, an edition Of at least
10000 will be published in October, under
the name of
VOSE'S SOUTHWESTERN DIRECTORY,
FOR 1897.
An almanac will .e attached, and useful
information inserted in orGCr to secure a
PERMANENT circulation, and copies of the
directory, (of which sales of several thou
sand have already been made in advance,
will be distributed to all places where ad-
yeriSments are made; besides free circu-
lation of about 1000, to every post Office
and printing office ofthe Southwest.
The undersigned will be at the following
named places on the days specified, viz:
AT the city Of Natchez, Adams county,
September 18th;
At st. Francisville, West Feiiciana; on

Al New Orleans, September 9th, and

Gentlemen at, or near the places above
named, wishing to advertise in the Directo-
ry, will please put their letters in the prop
err post office, before the dates above given
addressed to H. VcsE, Bat, advertise
ments directed to the undersigned at Grand
Gulf, or New Orleans, prior to October
18th, will probably reach in time, w. ii.
Fox is agent for this work, at Natchez.
The price Of advertising is 81 per line
and although banks, &c. will be cursorily
noticed, their heads will do well to send
advertisements in lull, which will then be
known to be auHlentic.
Insurance, Packet and other companies,
wishing their advertisements widely spread, |
will do we'll to have conspicuous ADVERTISE
ments in the Directory. In favor of collie
ges, academies, &c, a deduction Of 80 per
cent. will be made on the cost Of advertise
ing, after the first s..
Lawyers and physicians advertisements
will generally be charged s., and will be
suitably displayed.
Thus it is that every one can have his
name and business in Directory, every
year at a small expense, aud with m,rc
profit to himself and convenience to those
wishing to transact busincs with him, di-
rectories, because of the immense circula-
ton. 1t is hoped and expected that, in
course Of another year, the increase of ud-
vertisement will justify the undersigned in
having a bound book. The price, this year
is only $50 per thousand. Advertisers will
please address,
