CONVULSES NEW YORK frM CITY flALL™ CENTRAL PARK. OLD ESTABLISHED MERCANTILE HOUSES, WHOSE BOLVENOT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOUNDED ON INDESTBUCTABLE ROCKS OF UNLIMITED OAPATAL AND UNQUESTIONABLE CREDIT. TotM and Fell in a Day ! Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing manufacturers who had mode up numerous stocks from materi als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith on lively ar.d profitable September trade, absolutely relying on it for furds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there was nothing left for them to do but to fail and turn their goods over to an Assignee. It was bad for them, but it is in your power to make it good for you, for, as usual, when good goods are to be sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that we were already pvepaicd with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil drens and.Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from 30 to 60 per cent, of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o’clock Monday Mornfilg i and itgwill be to the interest of every one in this city or country to be on hand, for at the prices we propose selling these goods you were never offered them in the history ol the dry goods, clothing, boot and shoe trade.
