beautiful and patriotic address, abound

ENTIRE PRODUCT OF TWO FACTORIES

| NXTE have the ENTIRE PRODUCT OF TWO
w VIRGINIA FACTORIES that are sent
to this region Of country. They make exclu-
lsvey to our order and with an eye expressly
TO the wants of our customers, the most supe-
rior Grey and Drab PULLED CLOTHS, Coun-
try Flannels wide plaid, and the Country
straight-striped Linseys" that are produced in
the United States.
The "pick'' of their whole product is sent to
us the inferior and rejected lots are sent to the
Northern commission merchants.
The goods we offer are regarded by compe-
tent judges who have purchased Of US for years
past as vastly superior TO anything produced
in this part of the world.
The factories are located in Western Virgil
mia, where wool and labor are cheap and are
literally employed in their production.
The immense lots Of all superior fabrics for
servants wear that annually pass through our
hands enables us to offer really the most supe-
rior goods produced at about the same prices
usually charged for the inferior grades.
Farmers and planters who clothe their ser
wants well, will find our stock Of goods adapt
ed for the purpose the largest in the District
In addition, our stock will be found most
ample and complete in al departments of all
frst-class European and American Fancy and
Staple Dry Goods.
The heavy Woolens for servants will be in
store by the 18th of August 1858, and we
most candidly suggest that it will be best for
our customers to make their selections early, as
it is Of frequent occurrence that our supply is
not more than half equal to the demand.
We would also name in this connection, that
we are the largest operators in all kinds of
Blankets in our market, especially White and
Grey Blankets, Of superior quality and at low
prices, for servants.
One price only, marked in plain figures, and
no salesman in the house permitted to ask or
take fartl0g over or under the marked price;
hence, no purchaser is deceived.
Da5- We are not opening any new accounts
&sss- All old bills presented monthly for
pryment in cash consequently we are enabled
thereby to continue our low scale of cash prices.
Strangers and all others most cordially soil
cited to examine our stock if but fer their own
qualification. They will at least learn the
lowest cash prices.
Our Northern and Eastern correspondents
send us new supplies daily. We are therefore
presenting at all times the largest and most
com prehensive stock Of first-cass staples, with
all attractive novelties that bear the impress Of
substantial merit.
va Good articles, low prices, and fair deal
ing may be relied on in all cases.
