The Franco-Prussian war has destroyed and
disabled 30 many skilled laborers, and inter-
rupted the manufacture of French and German
goods, SO that there will be a scarcity, espe-
cially of silks and the finest fabrics, for some
time to come. The first effect of the war was
to throw large quantities of these goods on
the English market, thereby lowering the price.
But now, though peace is restored a long
time must intervene before production will
reach it's former amount, and these goods must
necessarily advance in price. Fortunately,
some of our leading silk manufacturers, antic-
ipating this state of affairs laid in large
stock of raw silk at ante-war prices, and will,
for the present, supply their customers at the
old rates, and purchasers should take advan-
tage of this opportunity to lay in supplies. At

more to enable them to complete the purchase
according to law. They were empowered to
assess contiguous property, under the name of

condemned land, and thought they had done

taken leaves them in the vocative, and now

They are large manufacturers, having in addi-
ton to their mandatory of hats and hat

authority in matters of fashion and taste,
and what they cannot supply the trade in
