u SOUTHERN CHEMICAL WORKS, anx-
ious to disappoint of the regular customers of
the establishment, is compelled, in view of the diff
fculty anticipated Of filling the unprecedented!y
large orders that are being daily received, to inform
all the old patrons of the BI-SULPHITE OF
LIME, manufactured at the great Southern Works,
that unless they send in their orders early, SO as
to secure them eligible place on the order books,
some disappointment may be experienced in their
receiving it, which would be vexatious to both
parties. Already preparations have been compile
ted at the Works to make sure of having at least
FORTY THOUSAND BARRELS of the BI-SUL-
PHIIE prepared; but even this large quantity
would seem to be insufficient, so unusually heavy
are the orders received from old customers, and
many new ones, who heretofore have either not
employed this most valuable defecator, or have
procured it from other manufactures.
The strength of the BI-SULPHlTE now being
manufactured at the Southern Chemical Works of
H. BONNABEL, will be found uniform and of
greater strength than at any other period no pains
or expense having been spared to bring this invalu-
able chemical product perfection possi-
ble and to make it worthy of the high character
the Southern Works have already secured with tie
