The Sensation of the Period |
Strange but True!
HARD TIMES Pc GONE.
| IL / AVlNG been watching for some.
IL time past the financial pulse OF the
| country and the ever varying events OF
the trading world with view to the in
crease or decrease our weekly purchases.
we are prepared to announce to our mum,
erous patrons that our Investigation Of
these subjects has been perfectly satisfac-
tory and that we have as a consequences
forwarded larger orders than ever be-
fore to our New York agency.
The year 1851 therefore begins with
flattering prospects for fartuers, mechun.
les ana all other lab0rers alike. Y'n.
financial pulse OF the countryi is steadily
improving and having returned almost
toa hard money basis, we shall gradu-
ally but surely recover our former pres
tiGe and the SO long declining prosperity
of our beautiful Southern land. Beink
firmly Impressed with the fore-shadow-
ings ofthese approaching events we have
| made arrangements commensurate with
the demands they will disclose.
Our Agent in New York is already in
| receipt OF our Instructions directing hina
to be on the alert for every sale and fail:
ure as we'll as every house tottering on
the brink of bankruptcy. SO that he. Will,
cash in hand may take in every bargafp
and thus enable us during the present
year not only to increase our own re.
sources, but to become also a never
| changing source of assistance to our
| friends by selling them goods far below
the Wholesale marked Of New York.
1t was the credit system that paralyzed
onr Industries in the past and caused SO
| II,
every article needed for family consump-
tion doubled In value. Thus while labor
was inadequately compensated, goods of
every description approached almost fab.
ulous prices and the daily sweat of O.
mans brow barely obtained for himself
ana family the coninlonest necessares OF
life. loo much credit will always create
demands greater than the sources of sup
ply will satisfy, hence everything takes
III upward tendency under it's operations.
On the other hand cash transactions will
make the supply larger than the demand
ana consequently goods fall to bottom
prices when this rule prevails.
We pay cash tor all our goods before
they leave the place bought from. Hence
our ability independent OF our unrivaled
incilities for buying) to outstrip and un-
derseh an our competitors. The mer-
chant who buys OH time, (anu who of
them doesn't) not only has to pay the higll-
est prices for what they get but also the
additional percentage added OH all crediI
sales. Now al this comes out OF the con-
sumner, the MAN who patronizes the time
merchant at home. 1t will ut once be
perceived that the difference between us
Is vast indeed, and that the buyer on
crcdit system canuot purchase goods az
market prices. while we, by paying cash..
get the most extraordinary bargains at o.
large discount on Wholesale cash prices.
IL Is therefore quite cas-, Tor us to sell
