All persons who may have occasion to use
liquors of any kind for medicinal or mechani-
cal purposes, are informed that the City Agen-
cy is supplied with articles of excellent quail
ty, selected expressly for these purposes. No
liquors will be sold at the Agency except those
purchased of the State Agent, and they can be
relied on as pure and of standard proof as GER
titled in the certificates of analysis from the
State Assayer. The price list has been revised,
and only sufficient profit will be charged to
meet current expenses. We think this mode
of conducting the agency cannot fail to receive
public approval. Per Order ..ls au1tF
