CHANGE OF FIRM.
Geo. n. Paine a Go. Removing TO
Arkansas.

The cnterprising and popular firm
of Geo. N. Paine & Co., dealers in
staple and fancy groceries, at the cor
ner Of Vance & Lauderdale streets,
has sold out to NJ. G. King & Co., who
will continue the business. Mr.. Paine
is one of our rising young merchants,
and we regret to lcse him and his
clever partner, Mr. L. V. Dixon. Mr.,
Paine has, however, already estab-
lished a prosperous house at Aber-
deem, Arkansas county, Arkansas, on
the White river, and has removed
there to remain permanently, to do q
general merchandise business, hence
they have sold out in order to concen-
trate their efforts at the new and in,
viting location. Mr.. Dixon will re-
main to wind up the business of the
firm, and make headquarters at the
old stand. All persons indebted tt
Paine & Co. are requested to be ready
to settle when bills are presented, anC
bills owed by the house will be pait
as soon as collections can be made
say by the 10Th inst. When this bus
mess is settled, Mr.. Dixon will ioiI
his partner at Aberdeen.
We commend both these young mel
as worthy of public confidence, &C
commodating, enterpriSing, and reli
able. They are a valuable accession
to the community in which they hav
located.
