EXTENSIVE WHOLESALE Dry Goops
HoUsE.-An advertisement addressed to the
country trade by Messrs. Jas. Low g. Co.
Lou 'sville, will be found in to-day's paper.
This old established Dry Goods house has
by its fair dealings, extensive and varied
stocks, and low prices, secured large por-
ton of the trade of this region, as well as of
every portion of the West supplied in any
degree with Dry Goods and Domestics by
Louisville. Their sales are over one million
of dollars annually. We are assured from
reliable source that they buy all their goods
for cash. The discount for cash pays the
expense of getting prints from the East to
Louisville, and gives about two per cent pro-
mt on the agents prices in New York and
Philadelphia. This house can certainly
make 1t to the interest of merchants going up
the river to make their purchases of them
An examination of their goods and prices
will not injure at any rate. Our advertising
columns generally notice their most import
ant arrivals of goods.

day evening give an English performance
introducing several popular plays, songs
ere. Due notice of plays, songs, etc. will
be given. Mr.. Thielenan aud his fami y
give good performances in German, as we
understand, and at the very beginning IS wcr
