THE BUFFALO AND ANDALUsIA STEAM
FxRRY. AND TIE ILIISo,, TaADs-The estab-
fishing If This new ferry, which plies across
the river between Buffalo, ON the Iowa side,
and Andslusia. On the Illinois side, ten mles
below Davenport, is matter OF great impor-
tance to the merchants and business men of
this city. and we trust that its proprietors,
Messrs James Ruby 4 Co.. will find NO lack OF
encouragement 1t is a fact which has, within
the last few months. become highly apparent.
that the trade of . large section of country on
the Illinois side. which has hitherto been trib.
utary to other places. principally Rock Island)
is fast finding it's way to this city. This has
been induced principally by the policy Of low,
prices and fair dealing adopted by our mer.
chants. and also by the liberal exertions they
have made to this end. That this trade. al.
ready large from the counties of Rock Island
Henry and Mercer, can be retained and large.
" increased from month TO month and year to
year. there remains not shadow Of doubt,
and further. that our enterprising merchants
will lose no opportunity to afford solid induce
msnts to bring this end about. We are very
confident
The opening Of this new ferry is an extra.
ordi' ary inducement to the people Of the
counties mentioned-one which they will
most fully appreciate. 1t brings them 1t once
three miles nearer this city, which affords
them better market, both - regards sell.
Ing their wheat. corn. oats. AID other produce.
and psrchssiug such goods - are indispen.
sible. wsdo not say this bosstingly. or with
the least intention to deceive our friends into
patronizing our merchants in preference to
others-If any proof 10 demanded to substAn.
tiate our statements. We can furnish it In
abundance.
We would cay to the farmers and others on
the Illinois eide. that our merchants and deal.
ers will continue to offer you just such advan.
tages - you have heretofore had. and since
the ferry mentioned has been permanently
established. We think you will not hesitate to
avail yourselves Of them. For your wheat you
can always fiod = ready market, at . better
price than you can find in Rock Island you
will not have 90 far to haul it. BY three miles
which max es six miles difference in the trip
you will get the ready cash. and whatever
you may wish TO purchase Of our merchants
will bs offered at such rates - will prove most
satisfactory. To those who have already test.
