TO THOSE WHO CE.OTEEI
SERVANTS WELL.
Made i'm Western Virginia

NHERE wool is cheap and good, and the
w manufacturer does not hesitate to put it
in his fabrics plentifully.
We have given an order and viii have in
store by the 9TH of September next,
1900 yards drab PULLED CLOTH,
1900 do grey do do all
double width, Of superior quality, at 81
per yard.
$500 yards of those extra wide, bright and
thick PLAID LINSEYS, for servant wo-
men.
1900 yards Of that extra superior, wide,
twillcd, white MERINO WOOL FLAN-
NEL-certainly the best article ever pre-
duced for under-shrts, drawers and skirts
The proprietor of the factory where those
goods arc made, strives to get up the best goods
Of the class that are produced in the United
States. In the opinion OF the very best judges,
he has accomplished the object
We have been searching in vain for the past
ten years, and have not succeeded until now
in finding such fabrics for servants as those he
makes.
We have given him large order thus early
to be certain of supply-giving him ample
tine 10 make them 2cel and thoroughly, as he
does not permit piece to leave the mill that
will not bear the strictcst scrutiny.
Our Virginia and Maryland friends, at whose
urgent solicitation we order those goods made,
will please send in their orders early to insure
n supply, and not he placed in the situation
they found themselves last autumn and winter,
regreiting they had not enough, "and could
not find any that would match them"
We doubt not a casual inspector OF the goods
named above would satisfy any calculating
person" that it would pay to sell their wool
and not trade, but buy better goods than they
get, at much LOWER PRICES.
Ii may be mentioned at this time, that we
propose to add to theabove probably the largest
and best stock Of SERVANTS BLANKETS,
and all other goods in that line generally that

CHEERING News FROM INDIANA. We
learn by private letters from Indiana,
and from gentlemen of well-known iudg-
ment, that this State is sure for Mr..
Buchanan by at least fifteen thousand
nloJority Many astute politicians place
the prospective democratic majority in
the fall as high as twenty thousand
This is cheering news indeed We have
no fears of the Northwest She will
come up to the work like a giant, as she
is, and shake of from herself the last
remnant of bigotry and sectionalism.

Gs' An exchange paper, speaking of
the Germans, says:
A powerful effort has been made by
the Aboitionists 10 enlist the Germans
in the Fremont ranks. One German
paper was bought up by them in a short
time back, and lost six hundred subscri-
bers in one week. The mass of til e
Germans are organizing in behalf of Blu
chanan and the South. They say it was
the Democrats who protected them at
Cincinnati and louisville, when Mr..
Fremont's Khow-nothing friends were
shooting them down like dogs.
