FOR THE MAN WHO WILL DUPL1-
CATE OUR PRICES.

Determined to keep up with the times,
and wishing to save the people OF Martins
| burg and vicinity the trouble and expense
| of running or sending TO Baltimore and
elsewhere for their goods, we have pur-
chased one of the largest and best assorted
stocks that we have ever offered in Mar
tinsburg, and we confidently assert that
we will sell at less than city retail prices
1t is hardly necessary to call attention To
our Domestic Department, as the enor-
nous business we do in that line attests
the fact that we must SELL CHEAPER
than any other house in town; and when
we come to FINE GOODS, the difference
is far greater. We will therefore call at
tenton to our LARGE ASSORTMENT of
CARPETS and OIL-CLOTHS, which we
are selling at RUINOUS PRICES. Beau
tiful lngrains at so, GO, 20, 80, 90 and
100 per yard Rag Carpets as low as so
cents per yard; Floor and Table Oil
Cloths in almost every width. quality and
price. A splendid line of DRESS GOODS,
all the latest styles. Silks from 81 up ;
heavy Gros Grain for So, as good as you
can get for 50 90; in Black Alpacas We
defy competition we have them from 20
cents up TO beautiful Silk Warp for 81.
We have added fine and complete line
of MOURNING GOODS to our stock
Australian Grapes, yard Wide, so cts all
wool Delaines, single width, 379 cents
do. yards wide, 81, worth 81. so; Blk.
Cashmeres 81 to 81 80; Honey Comb Bed

Liner = DE Damasks, Napkins, Towels,
Ha -Aerchiefs, Hosiery, Ribbons, En-
Jideries, Laces, Edgings, Ruflings,

Our stock ofCassimers, Jeans, Cottonades
and Linen Drills, is large and under the
market. Notwithstanding the hard times
we propose. to PUT DOWN PRICES to
suit the times, and sustain our reput ton
for selling cheaper than any other house
in Martinsburg. No trouble to show
goods. d. w. TIMBERLAKE.

A Paris correspondent writes am
told that Nine. Nelson's marriage was

part OF her husband as well as her own
that no fell in love with her while she.
was studying for the stage and was very
anxious to marry her and free her from
all necessity of ever appearing in public,
he at that time being quite wealthy. But
the fair Christine, with full and well
founded confidence in her own powers,
declined to relinquish her hopes Of fame
and fortune, but promised she would
marry him and quit the stage as soon ms
she had amassed fortune equal to his
own, which amounted to 1000,000 Of
frances (S2oo,0oo). Time passed on;
