TUB SEW SOUTH.
The publishers of the Baltimore
Manufacturers' Record will shortly
issue s book on the South, from
the'pen bt Col. M. B. Hillyard, of-
New Orieaqi. :The ; book will be
called "The rfew^BOuth,” and will
embody an accurate *and impartial
description of the Southern States,
noting each State separately, and
giving their distinctive features
and cbaraeteristlcs. At present
there Is no tingle source trom
which can be gained a reliable and
unbiased description of the whole
South. This publication will sup
ply that want. It will treat of to
pography, Soil, climate, woods,
water-courses, resources, manufac
tures and bui-.Ii laws as are needful
to bo known. It will portray the
attractions to the capitalist, and
those seeking homes In the South,
in the lines ol manufacture, horti
culture and agriculture. It will
show what the South it and what
she is likely to become by reason
of her almost untouched, and
unknown resources in soil, climate,
rainfall, marls, minerals and geo
graphical position, and the vast
variety of prod ucta possible to
vylse and varied husbandry, and a
grasp of her rich opportunities for
manufacture.
The book is entirely new in its
scope and design, and aims to be
a guide to all seeking information
on moBt vital. matters.. No such
book lias ever beon written; and it
meets a want now imperative to
those seeking information as to the
South. The author, who is well
known both North and South fo r
his long identification with South
ern development, and through his
contributions to Northern journals,
is an able and pleasing writer, and
is Well fitted by his may qualifica
tions for writing a book of this
kind.
It is a work that should be read
by every man in the South as well
as every one who has any idea of
ever locating here.
It will ho a book of some 400
pages, and will be gotton up in
handsome stylo. The price will be
in*paper covers, 15 cents ; in cloth
$1.26'. 1 Subscriptions can bo sent

UNLIMITED CAPATAL AND UNQUESTIONABLE CREDIT,
Tottered and Fell in a Day!
Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing
manufacturers who had made up numerous stocks from materi
als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith
on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on
it for funds 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 he sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that we
were already prepared with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand
Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil
drens and t 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 Morning
These Purchases iviQ be Put on Sale
and itjwill 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 of the dry goods,
clothing, boot and shoe trade.
