NEw ARRASGENKNT.-One of the greatest
wants Of both citizens and strangers in Washing
ton, at all times Is reliable Alphabetical Bust
ness Directory, which they can lay theff hands
on at any time and place, and Instantly ascertain
the name and location Of the principal arm or

To supply this universal and ever-existing want
we design shortly commencing the publication
OF such Directory in the Daily star, and to that
END have directed an agent to call on our princi-
pal business Arms, and give them an opportunity
OF being represented in desirable an arrange

ably double that Of any other daily paper in the
world, published in a city Of the population of
Washington. In the District of CoIumbia, IL is
taken In nearly every famiiy-certainIy in nearly
every one able to pay six cents per week for a
newspapeF-and, besides, falls into the hands of
nearly every stranger that comes into the Dis
trici- The advantage of being represented in a
conspicuous Alphabetical Business Directory,
appearing daily in its columns, requires no COM
ment at our hands. In these days of general BUSH
ness shrewdness and enterprise, such an arrange
ment, we fancy, has only to be suggested to be
understood and appreciated.
