vHNH T. proprietor of the above establishment,
= after making many efforts to effect that
object succeeded few months past in procuring
the services of chief Manager, whom he knows
to be thorough bred, experienced, and skilfu
manufacturer, of which the most satisfactory evil
dence was Immediately given in decided i'm
provement both as TO quantity and quality of the
manufactured articles--all of which, he can yen-
ture to say are now. of first rate quality. He
would give notice to country merchants that he
has determined in future to sell to them at about
the Baltimore and Philadelphia prces-especial-
ly the Tarns-for CASH, or on short time for GOOD
negotiable paper, and feels confident thew would
find 1t to their interest TO call and examine the
yarns and goods before proceeding northwardlv
The PROJECTORS object in adopting this course is
so far as concerns himself, to change the policy
which has heretofore prevailed of endeavornp TO
keep up the home market of Virginia Yarns a.
bove what the same yarns sold at i'm the Northern
Cities-which gave to merchants in distant states
a decided advantage over Virginia merchants, or
compelled the latter to purchase Of Northern
Commission Merchants, and other than of the
Virginia Manufacturers, to the loss of both in the
expenses Of transportation to and from the North
ern cities. He regards the present price of Yarns
in Baltimore and Philadelphia as at about IL cts
per pound, for Nos. ranging from to IL, and
small advance for numbers above--at which rates
he will now sell with discount of per cent
for cash. ]. TIMBER, AXE.
