well known clothing house, have goue, with
several other very clever gentlemen, from
Main street to the new block of buildings on
First street, which has been christened as
"CoxNERcrAL Row." Their new house af-
fords them elegant and spacious sales rooms,
and gives them better space to display their
extensive stocks. sThis house Is one Of the
largest manufacturers Of clothing in, the
West ont of Cincinnati. Their abundant
means and facilities enable them to give
every inducements to purchasers, in prices
and credit, that is afforded any where else in
the West. In good times they maintain 800
or 400 pairs Of busy hands at work. We
trust as times improve that all these will
find employment in the service Of their old
fair, and liberal employees. This house is
one from whom customers may order theil
goods in full confidence that Justice will b,
