We desire to call the attention of eur
lady readers to the large and well se
lected stack of trimmings, lacegoods,
hosiery and gloves, at the ladies';empo.
riuth of 7,7. W. mopripml, 81 mao- e i
Itroet, and advW to call and ex
amine it, whether they desire to purchase
or not. It is always a pleasure to exam
ine line goods, and the gentlemanly_
salesmen at this establishme.ot deem it a
pleasum to exhibit goods. The stock
as: been selected with great care by
M? Moorhead in person, who purchases
trem Ilnd bands in the East, and is there 7
by enabled to sell at prices much below
those who purchase from jobbers and
brokers and consequently have to pay
more for their goods. The latest styles
In all lines of goods may be found at 81
Market street as soon as they appear in
the. Eastern market.
The idea formerly existing that a first
class article of - Queensware could not be
manufactured on this side of the ocean,
has been most completely exploded, by
S. M. Kier ktr. Co., proprietors of the Key
stone Pottery, No. 363 Liberty stret, by
the prcduction of a ware from their
manufactory in this city, eqUill, and in
many respects superior, to the best Liv
erpool ware ever iworoied. For strength,
durability and beauty of finish, the
Keystone Pottery ware is unrivalled.
It is manufactured in all the latest de
signs and after the latest patterns, and
finished in any manner desired Owing
to the fact that this ware can be pur
chased from 20 to 25 per Cent. cheaper
than the imported ware of the same
r quality, it is almost entirely superceding
the latter. Dealers should call and ex
'amine it.
