A First-ctass House Friday last
our merchants were visited by Mr. Men
Eel, of the Commission House of Men,
eel 4 Son, New York. We have no
hesitation in saying to our friends that
there is no better house on The conti-
nent. They have transacted a heavier
business for merchants in Southwestern
Virginia than any house we have ever
known, and have given the highest sat
isfaetiou--their sales generally soon
made and the cash RENTED by check
at once. Their sales for one house, in a
neighboring county, were $4,000 for
one season. We bespeak for them a
large custom from this country. They
recommend the shipment Of dried fruit
in barrels. See their advertisements
elsew here.
