A A N OF BUSINESS.
A Token OF Success ERrned by Years
OF Fair aud Honest Dealing.
Aessrs. SeeEseI q o Fairly Embarked
as Wholesale Dry Goods Dealers

Our business facilities are keeping pace
with our rapidly developing trade, trade
which has made more gigantic strides than
our population, and has ouGstripped every
other material feature of our wonderful
progress. The prospects for the future are
so bright, and the past has been so favor
able for our dry goods houses, that Messrs.
A. Seessel d Son have given up a long
established, eminently respectable and
prosperous retail trade, and gone into the
wholesale line in dry goods. The reputa-
ton of the firm Is such that 1t cannot be
improved by anything that may be said
by public papers; it Is fixed, solid, immu-
table. The Seessels are 6rst-class business
men, who follow their profession In the
true and lofty spirit of genuine merchant
princes. The necessities of the trade in
this city demanded an addition to our
Wholesale houses. The more of them we
have the better it will be for each. The
old and small notion that a few men In a
line is best, has been exploded by philo-
sophie deduction as well as by actual OBJ
ssrvstion. It Is the number of iron men
In Pittsburg that has made the town and
made the fortune Of each. If there were a
particular street in Memphis m~onopolizsd
by ~tsilors, everybody would go there to
purchase clothes. II Is on this principle
that the world sends to Sheffield for cut
lery, to Belfast for linen, to Memphis
for cotton, to Brussels for carpets, and
30 forth to the end of the chapter. Let
Memphis become q great wholesale mart,
let it achieve a name abroad for being
a great cheap market where q country
merchants Wants are certain of being
supplied; and our trade will become Inn
mense. Il is going that way now. The
Messrs, Seessel q Son see this, and are
preparing for q glorious future. Already
IN possession of q very fine custom, they
will now turn their attention to extend
ing their trade in all directions, exhibiting
thst energy snd GOOD Judgment that char
scterized them IN their conduct of their
retail department.
NEW STOCK,
which has been laid In since the retail de-
pRrtment was given up, comprises full
lines of all departments of dry goods,
table cloths, linens, silks, all manner of
wooden goods, blankets, domestic5, call
Goes, ribbons, and, in fact, everything that
may be expected to be fanoied In a large
wholesale drygoods house. The house,
259 Main street, opposite the north side
of the square, is filled both up stairs and
down with g splendid assortment OF all
lines of dry goods suitable for all markets
south or west. In the extensive sales
rooms our country merchants can make
their selections, and get information,
should they need any, which Will be OF
service to them. The gentlemen employed
by Messrs. Seessel are thoroughly
Gcqusinted with their business, so that
merchants will find 1t a pleasure to call
upon them. The public spirit which Is
now q characteristic of our merchants, Is
fully illustrated in the conduct of the
Messrs. Seessel and in their splendid
wholesale establishment. We can conf.
IDENTIFY commend the establishment to all
our country readers.
