to the Ware*House adjoining, lately occupied by" Winn
A Rogers, where they are prepared to receive Cotton and
Merchandize. This house is put in good repair, and it as
safe as the other from fire, ami they regret that in their cir
cular they designated Hamilton A Reynold's Ware-House
as the one to be occupied by them, but trust this notice will
reach their friends in time to prevent mistakes in the deli
very of Cotton. They feel it their duty to slate lie follow
ing circumstances: in July last they leased of the proprie
tors ihe first named property—took possession, and expect
ed to occupy it throughout the season. Early in August an
execution against the owners was levied on it, and on Tues
day last it was sold by the sheriff, and notwithstanding the
subscribers bid liberally for it, they were out bid by a com
pany—who is now in possession.
