CoLUN1R1A BEING THE LARGEST

COLUMBIA BEING THE LARGEST
" interior town OF the State, We see no
reason why business should not be trans
acted in a manner commensurate with
its size and Importance, or why all class
es of Merchandise cannot be afforded at
rates that will prevent purchasers being
reminded of 40, thereby strengthening
the impression that San Francisco is the
only locality where goods can be
obtained at reasonable advance upon
importation cost,-which is doubtless an
error, as after the first bait is taken.
Should an up-country buyer be found
ignorant Of that market, the TAR
IFF" is introduced in peculiar, but
profitable style; 50 that, with road and
river expenses, an occasional lunch in
the Bay City, and transportation of pur
chases home, the prices range higher
than what we Can and " WILL "sup-
ply the goods for here. Our facilities
warrant US in speaking thus frankly
A Partner resides at the Bay, and has
only himself to blame, if not posted on
prices in San francisco, and the wants
of Columbia. A Partner here, sells at
rates that will surprise all who may
chance to inquire
TRADERS, HorEL-KEEPERs MINERS,
here, and in the adjacent Camps, can be
accommodated with all descriptions Of
of Merchandise, in any quantities, at
regular San Francisco prices, freight
and commission added; always have
their goods aoarramted to be of the very
first quality, and delivered in good Or
del, free Of charge.
This place enjoys the deserved repu-
tation of having good society. Families
are being attracted hither, to locate per-
manently, and must be supplied with
the necessaries and luxuries of life
We are prepared to meet any emergen
cy, arising from sudden influx of pop
ulation, or brisk demand, occasioned by
bad roads, during the winter, and
would say to all, call upon us and be
satisfied.

FLoUR.-NOtwithstanding the present higf
price of -four, there is enough of it in the
country The price must come down SOON
The Portland Advertiser says -four is still
pouring into Portland from Montreal. By the
piles on Atlantic wharf, and in the storehous
es, 1t would seem none hereabout should be
in want of bread.
The Boston Traveller says some Of the
flour dealers in Boston are reduced to the ne
cessity of receding from the high prices which
they have attempted to establish for that sta
pie article of food. Not less than one hundred
and sixty thousand barrels of flour are in the
hands of dealers in Boston.
The Boston Post says it is believed among
the knowing ones that it will be impossible tC
keep the price of flour at the present high
rates.
