THE CLEVELlHD.
WOOL DEPOT,

EsIa bIIshed In the Winter Of 1851:
HAS been In operation over four year., daring
Ilvhieh period, lhOash its progress has been
impeded By the adverse years Of o54 and Is.
o., the pFAetieabllitJ Of the plan has been
clearly demonstrated. That the house affords
superior advantages 10 the WOOL GROWERS
or THE WEST as 8 medium Tor passing tneir
wools into the hands Of the manufacturer, is
nov no longer a question. But although q
Very l4Bge number Of wool GioWers have avail.
ed themselves Of these advantages during the
last four years, yet. surprising AZ Il may ap-
pear 70 many, our receipts have been larger
from Merchants and WOol-buyers than from
WOol-goWers, and this may be accounted for
mainly from the fact, that, as 4 class, Wool
growers have been more easily Influenced and
misled than the former, BY The statements Of
a few operators who are wholly opposed 10 al
efforts baving for their object the systemati-
Eing Of the wool trade, or the enhancement Of
prices 10 the producer.
The past year, characterized as Il has been
BY the most disastrous financial embauass-
ments, has been one Of the most unfortunate
for negotiating and managing sales Of wool,
and the fact that the enterprise has been re-
markably successful notwithstanding these dis
advantages, and given almost universal satis-
faction 70 consignOrs, should, we think, inspire
sufficient confidence to induce large eOnsign-
ments from wool growers.
To those who have been prejudicec BY false
rumors, and who have manifested want Of
confidence we have frequently made advances
equal 70 the price they have been offered for
their wool. Such advances, how ever, should
not be required, as the enterprise was starte q
for their benefit, and this object has been stead.
lily kept in view, and We hope the encourage.
ment will be such as TO enable US to continue
our efforts. Indeed, wool growers, particular.
" the present year, cannot afford 10 do with
out such influence and facilities as this House
can extend to them.
This year must be apeculiarly favorable one
for wool growers to test the merits Of the Wool
Depot system, and We hazard nothing in assur-
ing those who are disposed to consigu TO US,
that they win avail themselves of
BETT E r PRIC ES
than they can OBTAIN by any other method, and
and would we trust, become permanent friends
Of the enterprise. At this House, the
Wool is Closely ClaSsifed
Into different styles and grades, thus render
ing it more attractive TO the manufacturer, who
frequently does not wish to purchase mixed
lots, Here he eau obtain the particular grade
Of wool adapted to the quality Of goods h
manufactures, apd thus can afford TO
PAY 3 TO CENTS POUND MORE
Than under the old system of employing a.
gents and sub-agents to canvass the countr!
70 procure bis stock. Here he can find uni
form grades, which are so well known to Eas
tern Manufacturers, that the only expense at
tending their buying is a letter or telegraph
dispatch, ordering any particular grade anC
quantity.
To those.who wish to consign Wool to us
We will forward sacks, by express or other,
wise. numbered and marked so that no othe
direction would be required to have the Woo
reach US.
