TO The MERCHANTS OF. THE
South and Southwest.


4 w Jcbbers inthe City of Charleston in
| view OF the present excited state ofthe co,In-
| try, deem it proper TO bring to the notice of
( the interior Merchants the claims we have TO
their patronage and custom. The majority
of us have been long established in business,
and from our experience are well acquainted
with the wants of this section of country.
/ All of US hold sentiments in common on thu
agitating question of the day-slavery; and
all of us desire, as far as practicable to boz
come commercially Independent Of the North.
We have no desire to underfate the energy
and enterprise of the Merchants Of Northern
cities. but we claim to be able to supply goods
in our respective lines, on. as favorable terms
both rs to the price and credit, as the nier-
chants of any city in the Union. We have
facilities for obtaining goods from Europe not
surpassed by any, and our importations from
abroad are very large Notwithstanding the re-
ports to the contrary. circulated by those who
have no knowledge of what they affirm, or
whose interest prompt them to misleai
American goods weobtain from the manu-
factureB on as favorable terms as any Jobbing
Merchants of the Northern cities Why
then should we not be able to sell on as fa-
vorable terms as others?
We are able and determined TO do SC, and all
we ask of you is, to try this market lay aside
the prejudice-for it is only pref udice-that
your customers prefer goods from New York
to those from Charleston, ard build up and
encourage your own >Seaports and yonr own
merchants If we cannot do what We profess,
you win be subjected to very little inconveni-
ence. for opportunities of leaving by railway or
steamer are offered every twelve hours
Our stock will be complete by st February
next, and it remains TO be seen how many of,
those who have heretofore purchased all their
goods in Northern cities viii give Charleston a
trial this spring. go.
