Having been called to New York by a telegram announcing that several large Importing and Manufacturing houses were on the verge cl
bankruptcy, and that if I had any money I could purchase a lot of goods at less than half their value, I packed up and hastened away
—to be prepared to give my customers more goods for their money than any one—and without any exaggeration I have purchased the
Best, Prettiest, and Cheapest line of pods ever exhibited in Georgia.
All I ask is an examination of my goods to convince the most skeptical that I MEAN WHAT I SAY! These goods are New and Fresh
and were bought for the CASH and I am bound to get my money back—nothing more, nothing less. My goods were selected with great
care, as I know the wants of die people ot this city and surrounding country. Below I quote some of my new prices. I will sell

It is sometimes remarked that
certain stalwarts don’t seem to
know that the cruel war is ended.
The tax-gatherer does not know,
and Congress is on a par with the
stalwart and tax-gatherer. During
the past ten months the govern*
meat received from war taxes, still
in force, the sum of $55,608,777
over and above what it had to pay
out. So it has been for nineteen |
years since people supposed the war j
was ended.
