sDeeIaI Notice

ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room it is generally the custom, as every
one knows, to have several champions present to
entertain the public FOR FEW HOURS but on
account OF 80 much suffering among our people,
we thought proper TO give the orphans of this
city and poor Of Chattanooga that benefit which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again. as il is sometimes the custom of giving
premiums, such as watches, etc. and having
proof of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy, we have therefore concluded to
Nashville. from the lst day of April. 1867, up to
October LIST, 1867, (six m0nths,) which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor of Nash
vile. We hope that the amateur billiard play
ersand the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain it.

OUR WHOLESALE TRADE. - The an
nouncement Of Messrs. Evans, Fife & Co.
drygoods iobbers, in orr advertising coli
umns, this morning, reminds us that we are
on the eve Of the usual fall trade. The
stock Of these gentlemen, now opening aud
to be constantly received till the close Of
the season, is so ample and varied that we
were led to inquire Of them their expecta-
ton as to the extent Of our fall business in
the jobbing line They replied that their
information justified the opinion that there
would be a greater demand at this point
than at any time since 1850, and they were
preparing accordingly. Their sales during
the year past, exceeded in amount, those Of
any previous year, before or since the war
Retail merchants have ascertained that
they can purchase here as cheaply as in any
other Western or Southern market, and
that il is 10 their interest 60 stop here. Our
iobbers, on their part, present variety,
that the stocks for retailers can be made
up complete in all branches, here as well
as at any other point
Messrs. Pigue d Manner in the same
block with Messrs. Fife & Co., are opening
20 the wholesale trade a heavy stock Of
hats, boots and shoes. The extent Of their
business and good judgement in purchasing
enables them to compete with any other
market.
In other departments Of trade, upon in>
quiry, we learn they all are looking for an
increase OF business during the season that
is now upon as. Our grocery merchants,
hardware dealers, druggists, etc, are pre-
pairing for increased sales. We trust that
their anticipations may be fully realized.
