LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.



EDITOR STAR The idea that all shopping
can be done cheaper at the North than In this
city is very prevalent with the people here,
anC consequently many of our residents defer
thrlr important purchases until they make
.helr usual summer trlp 70 new ork or Bos-
ton. OF course this custom IS far from favora-
Die 10 the business prosperity OF washington.
and yet il itrests upon the real fact that goods
are cheaper there than here, they cannot b.
olameo v no avail themselves OF the opportu-
nifty OF a Journey North 70 do their shopping
But sometimes an idea Is prevalent which is
not rounded on tact, ana having had a little
experience on this point which has taught me
a Lesson, 1 wish TO report II, hoping that others
may profit aud that il may possibly do a little
toward retaining in the city the trade which
naturally belongs to IT,
The purchase tha' enlightened me was OF
carpets. Pursuing the usual method. / Id
not even examiu the article that wished for.
before leaving Washington, but upon reaching
The vicinity Of Boston Thought myself very
uon of a friend TO ihe agent OF the man uiac-
turers, a quality for 81 so per yard which Is
usually sold AT 81 90 IN Boston and New York
After my return, l Glanced to see AZ the store
OF one of our largest carpet and furniture deaf
ers, a piece Of carpet of precisely the same
quality and pattern as mine. Not being very
ousy, stepped TO ask ths prica, thlnking that
the answer would probably give me a co.,
sciousness of having been extremely shrewd
when l purchased my carpet at the Nortl
Imagine my feelings whel was told that tha
cut it, bat il l would take the whole Of the
piece, i could have II tor Si.3J. Wnen l re-
nembered that / had paid 81 for freight from
Boston, and 81. so for every yard Of the piece
l had bought. l did not feel that had been
extremely shrewd ,-and l resolved to do pen.
ance for the injustice that had been guilty
of towards sur own dealers, by immediately
reporting my own folly, and exhort others not
10 follow my example.
l was candid enough 10 express my sense of
having done wrong 10 ,ae gentleman VINO soid
the carpets, and to tell him the price L had
paid at the North. He said my mistake was
only a common one, but he had determined
thar, as far as was in his power, there should
be no iuducement for any resident of Wash
incton 10 60 North or East TO make their pur-
chases; that il should not be said with truth
that the people of Washington could do better
in any northern or eastern market than in their
own city. In addition TO this incident ! may
record the fact that a lady sent back TO Wash
ington for a silk dress that she had looked az
here. after examining the best stores in New
York for the same. d y. l.
