The Fall Trade.

The kall Trade
Our wholesale merchants are receiving their
stocks for the Fall Trade, prepared for and
expecting largely increased business In this
we have no doubt their expectations will be
fully realized. The extraordinary demand for
all the products Of the country for the last
twelve months, which has stripped the farmer
of every thing available in the way of pro-
duce, and left him with a well filed purse
the general pecuniary ease which has resulted

20 place the country in an excellent condition,
and to afford an unusual amount of means for
indulging in all the comforts and luxuries
which our market affords. In addition to all
this the magnificent yield which the present
season has afforded TO the husb8ndmar, is
enough to gladden. the universal heart, open
the purse strings, and enlarge the liberality of
all classes These considerations are, then, a
sufficient basis upon which to predicate the
opinion that the trade of the approaching fall
season will greatly exceed that of any of its
predecessors in this market.
In looking forward to a heavy business du.
ring the approaching fall, our merchants have
not been unmndlul OF the advantage of buy
ing early. They have, in many instances,
therefore, purchased goods at prices which, if
they were sent back to the jobbing houses and
manufacturers now, would afford handsome
margin for profit Al kinds of prints, tick.

vonced in the Eastern markets since our mer-
chants have laid in their fall stocks, and 1t
follows, therefore, necessarily, that for these
important items, Nashville is a better market
than New York We need not tell our friends
in Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky and Geor-
ga, therefore, that this is the place for them
to make their purchases.
1t should be borne in mind, as well, that it
Is not in one department alone, that the whole
sale market of Nashville offers superior induce
ments to the retail dealer. An examination
of our wholesale dry goods houses will reveal
the fact that in fancy articles of ladies' dress,
such as silks and all the richer and more ex.
pensive varieties, they are supplied with
stock unsurpassed In splendor and variety by
any other market. As for the last four years
they have been gradually extending this de-
pertinent of their trade, and each season has
surpassed its predecessor, so the fall season of
1855 will far surpass any thing ever before
seen in this market These goods are adapted
TO an exten sve city retail trade, and embrace
every thing usually found in the largest assort-
ments of Eastern jobbers. The taste and abil
ity of our wholesale merchants in making
proper and judcious selections in this depart.
ment have never been questioned, and we sd
wise those of our friends who contemplate
trip East TO give them a call before they 90.
If they can be supplied with every article
here required by country merchants, and upon
better terms, calculating expenses il is plainly
their interest to buy here. We are satisfied

do this.
Dealers from tie country, however, gener.

buy their Boots and Shoes, their Hardware,
their Drugs, Books and Stationery, Furnishing
Goods, Household Furniture, Fancy Articles,
Groceries, etc, upon as favorable terms here
as elsewhere. II not, there is still no sntii
cient indueement for them TO come here. We
are happy TO say that in all these departments
our market can suffer nothing in comparison
with the most favored in the country.
Our wholesale Boot and Shoe establishments
have also done prosperous business, and are
