Call and make an exami nation. T Richard Fcnlxtn.il, Dealer lu Unadulte- ated Liquors. Who b;ii not heard of I'euista'i ? Not to have heard of him is to argue oneself unknown. Perhaps there is no one tinn that has been m jro successtul in their way than Mr. Penistao, whose ttore and warehouse, at No. 43i) Chesnut street, is constantly tilled with those who desire pure and unadulterated liquors, at a reasonaole price. The visitor to this pi are can see large quantities of every kind of liqtior known to mnu. The finest winef, the most cost y bran dies, and the most sparkling ales, are here in profusion, and the connoisseur and the epicure cau each go away satisfied, both lu palate and in pocket, alter a visit to tins place of popular resort. The establishment does not depend on the a:d ef music or the other outside adornments to entiauee its attractions, but only on the oneness and good quality of all that is sold. A glass of tho sparkling old ale, as it conies up from the vaults built away don benea'.h the level of the pavement, is r refreshing draught, and a giase ' of the spark ling Catawba, as it glitteis and flashes in the light, gives a new zest to the appetiuj. In cases oi slcknes.s, the liquor obtained at Pcuistan's can be relied ou for being pure aud harmless. The visitor would be richly repaid for a visit to this establishment by a view of the many con trivanees that are availed off to add to the com fort and convenience of the employes. To give a description of all that is worthy of notice would be almost too difficult a task, and we wonld ask the reader to go and ee for himself, at No. 439 Chesnut street, opposite the Pot Office. McCallums, Crease it, Sloan, Manufac turers of Carpeting. The first and most essential thing that a good housekeeper looks to in first taking to house keeping, is a good earpet. That is, as it were, the ioundation. In olden times, when the pol Ifhed oaken floors rang with the iron heels of the knights and retainers, or the rude earthen floors ol the peasantry echoed the rnde tre.td ot their possessors, carpets were unthought ot. Sometimes, indeed, a matting of rushes would be used as a sort of covering to hide the inequalities of the floor, or to break the soun t of tne footsteps of the inmates. But it belongs to the modern nations to carry our floor cover ings to their highest p.tch of excellence and beauty. To be sure, the Eastern countries and especially Turkey and Persia, turned out from their looms the most ravish ingly beautiful fabrics, that for a long time were considered inimitable. But now the inventive mind of the more civilized and enterprising nations has improved on even thoso fine speci mens of skill and patient work, and we have cam ts of home manufacture that can compare in durability, fineness of texture,' and beauty of coloring and design, with any that can be pro duced in the world. In our own city we have at Germantown a manufacturing concern thaf turns, out most exqui.-ite patterns ot carpets. Wo refer to the Glen Echo Mills, whose pro pnet re, McCallums, Cn ase & 81oan have their wholesale rooms at No. 509 Chesnut street, and their retail store at No. 519 Chesnut street. Any one deeerving a good, curable, and cheup article of carpeting had better give them a call, James K. Kerr, Dealer lu Chluaware.

The latest designs of vases, card-receivers, bronzes, cotfoe cuds.. cologne sets, -rnamenil boxes in ebony, wal nut, oak, anu roeewooi, with a large and select stock of other goods too numerous to mention. An invitation is extended to the public to make an examination before purchasing elsewhere Those desirin? a choice ot articled, both useful and ornamental, should call at once 8t, the esta blishment of James K. Keir. Kockhtll & Wilson, Clothiers. .. The clothing business Is the one that seems" best to adapt itself to tho times. Within the past few years there seems to have been a re generation of the whole trade.. A tew years ago we saw none of the palatial clothing-houses that now tower alolt in all the beauty of Plctou, brown-stone, granite, or Iron. They were, or former'years, hardly more aspiring than a three stoned brick, . and were mostly confined to Market and Second srreete.' But now the most enterprising of them are entering into Cbesnut street. The MessM. Bock hill & Wilson have one of tbe finest stores in the city, Nos. 603 and 05 Chesnut street. The building itself i of fine Plctou stone, and is one ol the ornaments of the . street. .. -..-.- - Oo entering th eye is greeted with the most complete and tlf nLt agHortmeut f everything in tbe gentlemen's clothing Unc. Every possi ble shade and quality are displayed to the curi ous 'eye. and one naturally is at a loss to mnke a selection as he looks aronnd upon such an immense variety. But if he inquires of the obliging sa'efmen, who are1 around in such numbers, he will be as equally surprised at the cheapness of everything. Indeed, the motto of the firm Is "quick sales and small protits," and well they carry it out In all their dealings. Every one can find something to suit him, both In material and in price. The ploughboy, or the poor hard-working mechanic, or the wenlthv man of fashion, can each go away satisfied with their experiences. Perry & Co., Clothiers, proprietors of the "Great Star Clothing Empo rium," No. 609 Chesnut street, above , Sixth, at the sign of the "Star," have on hand a largo stock of ready-made clothing, the best quality of cloth, and the latest styles, coats of all sizes, heavy and light, broadcloth, beaver, cassimere, etc. coats in number to clothe all. Young men, old men, and lads can here obtain warm ing coverings of goodly appearance of finest qualities, suits of clothes, of the latest and most taMcful colors, perfect fits, and moderate prices. Perry & Co. have lonn held the enviable repu tation of the most thorough ot fitters, the best of cutters, and have the best of workmen. If there Is anything that does detract from a person's personal appearance, it is a coat that draws in at the back, a choke tit about the neck, a wrinkled front, skirts that stick out in every conceivable direction an irrepressible coat skirt which pinches, and chokes, and prevents tho wearer irom bending over without fearful danger of a split. Messrs. Perry & Co. have always had the skill to manufacture one of the best tits man ever wore, and thuv always guar antee entire satisfaction to those who order at their establishment. We wo'ild advise our gen tlemen friends to take immediate steps to have their wardrobes replenished by ordering at Perry A Co. C. Somcra Al Son, Clothiers. C. SomersA Son, No. 625 Chesnut street, under Jayne's Hall, offer great ad vantages to the public. Let all those who desire to replenish their ward robes In the most economical manner take the earliest opportunity of visiting the emporium of Somirs & Son, and providing themselves with warm and durable clothinar. : . . i . There is kept on hand at all times a full stock of fashionable, ready-made apparel for gentle men, worked up from the hnest materials, in the most substantial manner, and which Is soil ing at the lowest possible rates. They have asceitaiued tho regular prices of all the leading clothing establishments, and buying in tbe most profitable manner by quantities, are fully able to put their prices below any in the city. II any gentleman de-iirc9 to secure a well-made and stylish garment, let him visit No. 625 Ches nut slieet, and thereby receive groat profit to himself. Fairtll, Herring &, Co., Manufacturers of Safes. The inventive mind has found no mor fruit ful field for its operations than the develop ment of the lire and btirglar-prnol sa'e. So essential to the general BtUety and sneurV.y of tho business man in nil bw operationa have" thesn guards against loss become, . that toe patent sate is ot national importance. Origi nally the chief aim was to render it tire-proof, without any reference to its capabilities to with stand the eiidrts of burglars to force entrance into it. Now to such a piteh of perfection has the manufacture ot safes arrived, that alt the ansof the most accomplished burelar, atded with the most perfect i ils, are unable to force their invulnerable shells. There has lately been invent jd an exceed ingly hard metal, that has been named the "Spiegel Eisen." It is so bard that, not even the finest-tempered cast-Meel can make aiy Impres sion upon it. This metal is used to form the outside plating of tho burgiar-pr ol do ir of tbe Messrs. Forrell. Herring & Co.'s safes. Of its etlicacy the acoount ot tbe altempced rob bery of tbe Kent National Bank, of Kent, Ohio, is a most striking example. - The bink was entered on the 3d of Inst month. Tbe burglars succeeded in torcinc the outer ilre-proof door, but the inner or burglar-proof do r. which :vn. laced wiih tho -Spiegel liieen," deled t'l sir utmost etlorts. Arter tbe robbers left, (he oiti ceis of the bank pot an experienced safe msnu Jacturer to open their sate, whici had been damaged to some exteut. It required three men. working jor thirteen hoiirs, to open th door, liesldes its burglar-proof qualities, the Ileinnp safe has been knowu to sustain th most ii.ter.se white heat o' burning buildings or hours, Hud even days, wituout injury t iti contecits. At the company's o'lice, No. 629 neenui street, ine curious visitor can see some of these salamanders that have stood a fiery baptism in safety. Fairbanks & Kwlng, Manufacturers of Scales. "An incorrect scale will gnaw the very vitals out ot an apparently prosperous busi ness." This is a tact that every business man has fully tested when he settles Lis books, and finds small leturns lor tbe navine oat of krnn quantities of produce. In order to be success ful in a grocery store, drug shop, wholesale or retail establishment of any kind, you must have a pair of scales thit wiW not eheat yourse'l or your customers. The great difficulty with bnsi nef men is to find a pair ot scales that can be rcl ed upon, and which will not want constunt repairing. Fairbanks & E wing have long en jojed the enviable reputation of being the best and most reliable manufacturers of every kind of scales, irom one that will weigh with the roost exactness a Bmsll particle ol gold, to one that can be used in giving the true weight ol the most bulky ai tides. . Wekrhojasiers' beams and frames, with books, bottonis, etc., complete tor every description of weighing, tine gold and druggists' scales, in great variety, for brokers, jewcllws, banks, etc. Let all business men immediately look to the correctness of their scales, and if found want ing, cast them aside and buy those of Fair banks A Ewing's manufacture, which can be fully relied on. Be cautious in jour purchasing, for the well-earned merit of tboe scales bus caused the throwing upon themurketot a multi plicity ol imperiect and worthless ones under the name of Fairbanks' scales, but whioli are spurious and entirely unworthy ot attention. At the warehouse, No. 715 Chesnut street. Masonic Hall, these valuable and reliable buiances can be seen, and obtained if desired, and alto a pamphlet, with diac ranis of the dif ferent modldcations of these scales, in great variety. Call aiound and make an examina tion, and you will find that tney are the best balances made. I. E. Walraven, Dealer lu Curtain Goods. I. E.

There are some persons who seem to shut themselves up within their domiciles as close as hermits, and grudge the ouL1de pedestrians even the glimpse ot an open door. They sur round their gardens with high dead walls, and favor the French shutter system, which enablci them to close their windows against the glances of tbe outside barbarians. There are others who seem to have consideration lor the tired and weary perambulator, and present something to cheer his vision.

How kindly every , one lecls towards those who show so much regard for i tho stranger, and for his feelings I Perhaps there is nothing that adds such attraction to the exterior of a dwelling, or any building, as the adornment to tho windows. If they are not in good taste, they detract Just as much. The In terior, to be sure, is the main thine to be looked after, but still there is something due to outside appearances.
