To the People Of Eureka and Vicinity;
We wish to state a few facts which we
hope will place US in q true business
light and on q sound commercial standing
in this community.
First-We say it without fear of success
full contradiction, that we are selling (and
propose to continue to do SOY first-clsss
dry goods, carpets and gents furnishin g
goods as cheap as they are being sold to-
day in San Francisco or any place on this
coast.
Second-We have no old and shelf-worn
goods which We offer, but all CLEAN,
NEW, STYLISH materials, selected with
great care from the finest and largest
stocks of goods just opened from the East
by direct importers. We have completed
our arrangements with one of the largest
wholesale houses in the world, to con-
stantly secure for us the best of bargains
and the first selection Of new goods in
every instance.
Third-Ws propose adding q small hv-
ing profit to every article we sell. WE
OFFER NO BATS, OR QUOTE FIG
TICIOUS PRICES in order to in
duce people to buy, but place our
goods SIDE Dy Slu6 WIN any anu al
competitors, knowing that upon examina-
ton we will com out ahead. We
lave one price, and mark every ar
ticle in plain figures, so that every
man, woman or child can see for
themselves just what every article sells
for. Since opening, our store has been
crowded constantly, and each buyer has
left with the verdict that they had been
| squarely treated. and served good goods al
low prices. By SPECIAL FAVOR we
have been given inducements by O'Connor,
Moffatt l. Co., of San Francisco, in the way
of obtaining goods from their house.
Should any of the ladies in the community
wish to send away, we keep on hand a
full stock of their samples from every de-
psrtment to select from. which can be
seen at any time in our store.
Remember, one price to all. square deal
ing, no bats offered, goods obtained
strictly from first hands, entire s~atisfac-
ton given or money refunded, and an
earnest desire to please all and obtain a
reasonable share Of your patronage. We
remain respectfully yours.

Virginia CITY.

A private letter under date OF the goth
instant, from q friend in Virginia
City TO a gentleman OF Eureka, says: The
orders from San Francisco to close down
the northend mines to the Sutro Tunnel
has proven quite a wet blanket as regards
the feelings OF the people over the matter
The Obiston shaft on the 2l00 level Is be-
ing bulkheaded to hold back the water
from entering the middle mines. The new
hydraulic pump in the Combination shaft
is doing we'll. There has been no change
in the management yet. The town ia full
Of idle men. Many OF them want TO &c
somewhere, but don't know where to 60.
some are striking out for Montana.
