ftIHE SUBSCRIBERS having removed to their
J. new store on Main street. erected fer them by
Col Brant, at cost of sixty thousand dollars and
being the largest store devoted TO the Dry Goods
Jobbing Business in the United States, offer for
sale by the piece or package, a stock of TWELVE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS y! of American,
English, French, German and Swiss Goods, direct
from American and European manufac turers.
Our long experience in the Western Taade and
having correct knowledge of the wants Of the
country, enables us TO import such goods as are
adapted TO the wants Of the people.
We believe we have facilities in buying which
are not enoyed by any other Western house hav-
ing resident partners and buyers constantly at the
manufacturers and auctions in the East, and our
agents on the continent Purchasing our goods for
cash and on short time, we arc enabled to buy
much lower than Eastern or Western Jobbers who
buy on long credit and we are always able and
prepared TO take every advantage of a change in
the market, favorable TO cash buyers, which 1er-
chants who buy on credit can not enjoy.
We can afford to sell, for Cash, ten per cent
less than other houses, because we do not sustain
heavy losses by credting extraeagant and inUd-
cious merchants
Merchants who have been in the habit of visit
ing Eastern cities, are assured that they will see as
large stocks Of goods in ST. Louis as can be seen
in New York or Philadelphia.
We guarantee to exhibit larger and better as
sorted and more elegant stock of Fancy and Staple
poous ANOllOllS was ever seen IN one
house in America.
Our Dress Goods are mostly of STYLES designed
by ourselves, and entirely confined to us III this
market.
We are prepared to offer the satne inducements
in silk and white goods as are offered by first class
houses in the East, who only in this branch Of

stocks can be obtained in any of the Eastern ci
