IOI TWO years perhaps, we
have had the richest, largest,
mostvaried andmost exhaus-
tive collection of dress-goods
in Philadelphia. Before that
VIC may have had the largest,
and even the most exhaus-
tive, but perhaps not the
richest. The slowest trade
10 come to a new merchant
is the trade of luxury. 1t is
the slowest to change from
one to another. But it does
change.
We may say our dress
goods of all sorts are at
about their highest now. .
Second and third circles, southeast

Silks of all sorts have
come; and never were silks
more acceptable. And these
words have a meaning here
beyond any they could have
elsewhere; because Of the
greater variety of wants that
look to us for supply. We
must have all accepted styles,
and all the approved quail
ties Of those styles; and, as
to colors, can you think Of
one that we can 90 without?
A store that has only one

with comparatively few silks.

view OF the reduction Of taxes by the
present session with consequent
material reduction OF the commissions of
assessors and collectors, the governor be re-
quested to bring the matter before the
house. i
This resolution led to a lengthy discus.
sion, many of the members opposing it on
the ground that the increased values more
tnan compensated for the reduction on tax
ation even should the present measure be
adopted.
The resolution, however, was adopted by
large majority, and il is probable that the
relief sought will be reached.
The house then resolved itself into
the committee of the whole to
consider the bill authorizing the
creation OF commission to- act

the Indian Territory and Texas.
The committee to whom it was referred
recommended per diem OF s. instead of
