T1sr FALL TRADEs- The season 10 q hand i0r
the vi, rinia and Southern merchants 10 parchass
IN air fall and winter supplies Where viii they 90
~ nrocure those suppliesf Where they caa obtain
the hest articles on the best termsa We doubt
vbe,her many OF them win be governed By such
.o,rnon senss course. Regardless of their own In
,erests and the interests of their own dear South
,bev will travel hundreds of miles North, sp nd
their money amongst strangers, perhaps be swim
died bv sharpers get inferior Yankee article and
nav more for il than it can be obtained for at home.
This has been the course long, too long pursued by
seutherners, to the great injury of their own Sec
ton. It has become fa.hionable and ike many of
the common fashions OF the times, 10 persevered in
notwithstanding all see the absurdty and folly Of
such system. As public journalist devoted to
the South and the wesr of It's citizens purchasers
az well consumers, we mean to contribute our
humble ef,rts in breaking the enchsntment which
distance seems to lend to many of our merchants,
and which has so long and yet strangely induced
them to patronlse NORTH, to aid Ii uuld.ag W
Northern towns, and thus impoverish and retard
the growth and prosperity of their own State and
section.
What goods do the Virginia or Southern country
merchants want, which cannot be obtained as good
and cheap here as at the North Cloths, linens,
cottons, and dry goods of all kinds sugars cotfees

and hats, hardware and cutlery, stoves, iron, cop.

cines, saddery and harness, and in short every
cription of goods needed by the Southern merchant
can be had here, and, we v1nture to assert, of a
quality generally superior to the Yankee produc
tons of the North and in many cases. alter deduct
ing the cost of transportation, greatly below the
amount there paid for them.
Many Of the goods reiered to manufactured
here with view to suit the peculiar wants of the
South, many are imported directly from Europe
and all have been selected TO suit the wants and
tastes of a Southern community.
Our wholesale merchants now receiving their
fall supplies, and we invite the attention of retail
merchants to their stock, before they 60 farther in
all probability to fare worse.
Theie remarks, of which design a continue,
ton soon elected by casually passing yester-
day down Pearl l4h street, and observing in that
great commercial emporium, the large quantity of
goods already received for the fail trade in the
fine stores in that locality; and the may be
already observed in many ot the stores OF Main aud

Let the Southern merchant, when leaving home
for the purchase of goods take this city in his route
and he can soon determine whether re
