to fortune.
A. B. CLARKE, 141G Main street Here we
| have variety not yet mentioned in our list.
| Fine table and pocket cutlery and razors.
The latter are very keen, and will take otf
the rough beard of the inan; but they are
still not so sharp as the raZors used by some
shavers in town. With your "lather and
shaVe"; yet, Mr.. CLARKE, you can have
sharp raZors without vaiuly competing with
such Incompatible edged.tools. There is
great margin inside those which you may
occupy to the entire satisfaction Of your Gus
toners. Mr. CLARKE has spoons, plated
ware, bells, &c. The Christmas variety
would be decidedly delinquent without his
branch Of trade.
| w. H.. TATuM, 514 Broad street. More
mince-meat! More smoked tongue and
smoked beef and hams and Jamaica rum,
| French brandy, and whiskey, and teas, and
ct ceterd. All, dear reader, it is a hard trial
for n lnan to read over and write about these
tempting comestibles ard sauces, and liquors
and teas! 1t keeps the mouth'e 'ever watering
| and yet ever dry. We arc fast to the stake
or Oh the gridiron, we do not know which.
As you can do lis no good, comfort yourself
| by supplying your pantry and storeroom
with the good things of Mr.. Tatum. Take
| 'cm at once. If you have pity enough for US
you can invite us to your "spread" when
| they are served.
| ". II. ADAMS, 622 Broad street. "Atti1c-
your gold-plated jewelry, lace collars, hand
kerchieis, human-hair braids think of that j,
| long curl$, &c, &c. If you can't " curl in
this store. where will you? This is an en-
| terprising house, and has much to please the
fancy. Since Adams day great many fan
| citul things have been added to personal at.
f! tire. Adam and Eve did not pin together
the fig-lcaves with which they screened their
nakedness, when they got ashamed, with
gold-plated fastenings. Compared with the
| people now, how green they were. Had
they enjoyed the advantage of William II.
| Adams's stock they would have left the gar
| den quite funcifully. Go and see it.
LISSEMASN, 420 Broad street. Here we
have things very much diversified. Lime
man renews old garments by giving them
new color and bright, bran.neW surface.
| But he does great many other things. He
sells toys and dolls, and flies and drums, and
trumpets and tire-crackers. With these much
may be done to help on merry Christmas.
See Linnemann and dye. ILL.,.
| L. WAGNER & Co., Sixth and Broad streets.
| This concern, like many others, gives q
finish and grace to the drug store by The adj
| diton of ladies' fancy articles, such as work
| boxes, toilct-Stands, perfume-boXes, and i'm
| ported perfumes. These perfumes are, many
| Of them, put up in new vessels, made in ini-
tation of ducks, peacockS, deer, etc, allording
A fine example for New England Purtans
in retailing contrabrand lifhors. 4 cock
tail out of peacock's tail wouldn't go so
badly, and auld cronies might duck to one
another very happily out of ducks BILL
But here wc have no necessity to disguise
our liquor, and less to disguise ourselves.
WAGNER sells the genuine perfumes in these
| taking exterior forms and let the world
Nag, and Fashon-flcklc .adc-changc as she
may. these perfumes will bcawayS in vogue.
Il. III. BEAzLEY, corner OF Hull and Elc-
renth streets, Manchester. Let us cross
over the the free bridge is not quite
rcady-and take peep into BEAzLEY's cor
acr. His public service is the Improvement
of the understanding Of the people. Look
10 your footing. When stranger meets you
ne looks first at yotir face and then at your
!tet. Take care that they are well fitted
| with nice shoes or boots. Bcazley sees to it
That none shall haycan excuse for going slip
shod.
GEORGE KLEIN, 614 Broad street. Here we
are, boys and girls, i'll the midst Of the toys
| IF every variety. Mir. kleih has n class CT
toys and articles for the instruction as well
~ the amusement Of the young, such as
mechanical toys" too-chcstS, &c. With
one Of these tool-chcsts boy may build !,
kennel for his dog before Christmas !; indeed,
he may make himself useful in many ways,
especially in saving through the palingS,
chipping the furniture, and making the steps
more safe by inroadI with saw, and axe,
and chiScl. Let us so, children. to k!ein's
and get all these things.
JoHN II. DosCHES 4 SoS, 800 and 5l1
Broad street. More boots and shoes, and an
excellent assortment Of trunks, ladies satch-
els, &c. Now, these gentlemen understand
their art. They'll fit your foot, and that is
IN important matter. With an ill-ttting
shoe there is nothing tit to sec OF to hear, or
to smell or to taste. The world is all wrong
and delights not a man. He bad as well be
in some torture of the Inquisition. Boschen
is no conspirltor with DR.. Schultz to increase
| his business. That's saying Il great deal for
B. Boots and shoes are not bad presents for
Christmas, and anybody but an elephant
going to travel would not object to q trunk.
zee BoSchcn & son,
T. BALMER 4 Co., Sl4 Main street. This
is one of our fine grocery establishments,
offering great many things needed for the
tables of good housekeepers. Dried and
smoked meats, sauces, teas, liquors, preserves,
prepared food, and Il great variety Of other
things we need not mention. Go and sec.
Bnlmcr Il Co. import Il good many "rosv
and balmy" things from abroad, such rs
wines, liquors, &c. This is the second or
Ihird establishment we have noticed to-day
, without I single cheer, and although we are
getting tired of it, we must shy that Balmer
: Il Co. have Il vast variety suited to Christ
mas, and calculated to make people think
better Of themselves and all mankind. We
might possibly be made very amiable to-
!, wards B. & Co. Do you see it?
WooDHoUsE d PARuAM, 1905 Main street.
We write the firm with pleasure. We have
known it long and fayoraby. Gentlemanly
obliging, systematic, and neat, describe the
demcanor and the style Of tho house. The
stock, always well arranged, includes many
of the best books for the season, among them
superb English books, beautiful works for
young people, Bibles, prayer-books, desks
&C., Ill constituting the most appropriate
and seaSonablc gifts. Before the war this
house was one of the most extensive and its
stock one Of the best in the South. 1t is fast
redcquiring its old position, after having risen
up from the fishes.
NowLAN & Co., southwest corner Main
and Tenth streets. Here, dear young ladies
and young gentlemen, we find first-class and
most fashionable jcweiry. Think of the s,l.
perb gold watch aud the chain, the necklace,
the ear-drops, and the rings. All, the rings
and the sweet young lady who
"uad little finger with little ring upon 1t ~
