! THALurMER BROTHERS, COL Broad street.
What shall we say of Thalhimer and his
brother? And still greater conundrum,
How are we 10 give a just description OF
the magnificent display OF Christmas goods
we have lust seen exhibited in their store 7
Certainly they are we'll known. They have
| long devoted their lives to betterng society
| in the fttest modes Of life, and they have
| met with most creditable success. or their
goods we can only mention few of the
tempting and useful articles which our linn
tied understanding OF such business allowed
us to take in from the abundant supply.
We observed figured, plaid, striped, and bro
caded goods, and three-buttoned kid gloves.
Now we do know young lady who aSpires
to sixteen and eighteen button kids (not
that her aspirations have ever yet been
gratified), but we are Of opinion that three
button will do for ordinary people, espe-
ciaIIv when offered at Thalbimer's low
prices. Then, too, we saw alpacGs, ana
poplins, and merinos, and cachemlres; em-
press cloths and delaines; shawls. skirts,
| dear hoods, and sweet nubias, and enlbra-
cling jackets; and cassimeres, Waterproofs,
and doeskins. Then, too, there is an In
vitins stock of hosiery, furs, gloves, hand
kerchiefs. and velvet pockets and porte
monnaes. But we have gone beyond our
depth, and will leave Thalhimer Brothers
to tell their own story. 60 and see them
at No. COL Broad street.

agree with us that they are supplied with
fancy articles al infnitum. They also have
prayer.books and Bibles, and hymn books
