THEREFORE, READ THIS.
IJELOW WE PUBLISH A NUMBER OF LETTERS, FOR WHICH
} we request a careful perusal. Many people have been taken in by
glaring advertisements, so that it is often very difficult to convince them of
the truth. But 1 am determined to ho known all over this country as a
strictly honorable business man, and have adopted this method to convince
everybody. A postal card of inquiry will determine their genuineness.
Certainly with such proofs as these, who dare still doubt our integrity? We
are proud of possessing these letters, and wo publish but a small portion
of those we have, and with considerable pride we assort that there is not
another Dry Goods House in this country which can produce such a num
ber of bona fiilo recommendations.

last week and am pleased with them.
Mrs. H. T. Kennon.
Wo will send samples to any one who will write ns for them, with
prices marked on each piece, provided a 3 cent postage stamp is enclosed.
Please Take Notice of the Followiiitfi
1. Remember samples only give an idea of wlmt goods arc, but do not give the
article full justice.
2. Do not have any hesitancy in ordering the goods you want, for we guarantee
every article to come up to sample, and if unsatisfactory, it can be relumed to us at our
expense and ttie icill refund (he money .
3. Should any article turn out unsatisfactory, which might occur through an over
sight or otherwise, do not prejudge us of having done so intentionally, but give Us the
benefit of the doubt, and before returning it, white us your ’complaint, so that, if possi
ble, we might arrange matters satisfactorily, without the trouble and expense of returning.
4. Calicoes we cannot always match in the pattern, as we sell large quantities of
goode and it is impossible to keep every pattern for any length of time. Such and simi
lar goods we guarantee to fill, by giving the same quality, and as near the same pattern
as possible.
5. We ask as a favor that parties ordering goods be very particular in writing their
name and shipping point in plain letters, to avoid mistakes; also, to make their order
as definite as possible, especially on articles, of which samples cannot be sent**we would
ask to give us a limit in the price, to enable us to form a proper idea of what the article
is to be.
G. Whenever it is possible, we prefer the money lo accompany the order, but we
will send the goods C. 0. D. (cash on delivery) by Express, and it' /-(quested, we will in
struct the agent to open the package for examination, before paying for it.
7. We do not sell on credit under any consideration. If previously arranged, we
will take a cotton factor’s acceptance in payment’.-
8. Do not order any goods unless you have the money ready to pay lor it.
0. We prepay the freight on all orders amounting to twenty dollars or over. This
is the very best we can do, for our profit is so slight (rts we retail our goods at wholesale
prices) that wo cannot afford to do better. We admit there are houses who pay freight
on ten debars worth of goods, but common sense teaches plainly that their profit must
be larger than' ours. or else they could not afford to do it, and therefore, in such cases,
the party ordering the goocTs of such a house pays the freight after aft —only indirectly.
Wc have endeavored to be as honest and candid in our statements as the
language at our command can do it.,, and if this fails to* convince, wo do not
know what can.
We hold ourselves' legally responsible to carryout the above assertions
and consider this a binding contract, entered upon by us freely and volun
tary, and afiirm its herewith by our signature.

“NEWSY, SPICY, RELIABLE^”
THE
Atlanta Constitution.
| |NDETt ITS NEW MANAGEMENT.
X; The Atlanta Constitution has won
for itself the title of the leading journal of
the South. Its enterprise, during the re
cent election excitement, in sending corre-
to different portions of the coun
try. and its series of special telegrams from
Washington while the electoral commission
was engaged in consummating the fraud that
placed Radicalism once more in power in
our natioiuT councils, are evidences con
spicuous enough to prove that no expense
will be spared to make the Constitution not
only a leader in the discussion of matters of
public concern, but a leader in the dissemi
nation of the latest and most reliable news.
There is no better time than nerw to sub
scribe for a fresh and vigorous newspaper.
Albeit, there has been a quasi settlement
of one of the most difficult and dangerous
problems of modern federal politics, the
discussions springing therefrom and the re
sults likely to ensue have lost nothing of
their absorbing interest. In addition to this,
the people of Georgia are now called upon to
settle tne convention question, and in the
dissension of this important subject (iu
which the Constitution will take a leading
