PROVISION BITSINESS

PROVISION BUSINESS,
Since which time IL ever mortal tried hard t.
please, and deserve the patronage of the appre-
ciating public, we think we are the man: how
everwe have succeeded, the best evidence we can
offer is to point to the daily multitude that throng
the gates of No. Main street, and ask them why
this is We leave the problem for their solution.
But the point in our discourse is this before the
war we could purchase goods upon time now we
have to pay the cash; then we could afford to
sell goods and wait for the Wagon - but now
alasl we must have the cash for goods to insure
money. Now upon this line we propose to fight
it out, though it takes all the Capital we can
command to buy goods, and cur kind friends and
patrons will not fal to 'see the point" in dis
course, and make the application for our benefit
and their own. Yours &c.
