We chronicled, q few months since, the pur.
chase of lot on Augusta Street, by Messrs. H..
Ker & Bro. Today we call attention to another
factin connection Herewith. They commenced
the foundati on of a two-story brick store-house,
245 feet front by 10 feet deep, soon after their
purchase, and in SIS days after the first spade Of
earth was thrown, they ha6 moved into their
handsome Store-aouse, with a new and large
stock of Goods. This speaks louder than words
of the enterprise Of our people, Merchants, Nc
chanies and Others, and gives q clue to the cause
OF Staunton's m UGH TALKED Of progress since the
war.
We received a few days ago from our friend
WE. Snapp Esq, 8 package of very fine whisky,
manufactured under his superintendent, at the
Gistillery of Mr.. Bowman, in Rockingham coun-
ty. After being subjected to . trial, by compe-
tent judges, it was pronounced IN article Of yu-
perior quality.
Mr.. Snapp has been for years past engaged, Ell
tlier as a distiller or superintendent of a distil
lery, and by his continued success, has won the
distinction of an expert in the art of distil]ation.
He has a good supply on hand, and would be
pleased to FURNISH, at moderate rates, any one in
want of a first rate article, entirely pure and uns
adulterated. ~
