of Cloths, Cassimcres, Corduroys,
Jeans, Kerseys, Shawls, Collars,
Cuffs, Cravats, Hose, Suspcnders,

Abbeville can boast of as fine a
Millinery House as any in in the
State OF South Caroina-in fact, as
fne as any in any city, North or
South. The stock will compare with
any Retail House in Charleston, Bal
timore or Now York. The Ladies'
can have no plea for sending off for
their millinery any longer, for Mcssrs.
Fowler & Mcdonald can show rs prct-
ty goods, as fine goods, as stylish
goods as can be found in Baltimore
or New York. And, besides, they
can prove their prices to be from IS
to 90 per cent. lower than city prices.
They have every style Of Hat and
Bonnet that is out. Should any new
and novel style make it's appearance
in New York, they have arrange
nents by which to get it immediately,
hence there is no necessity for the La
dies of Abbeville to pay city prices
when they can do better at home.

both in Europe and Americ:;, and, we
think, has tho confidence Of everv
