two huildings, which are thrown together by 1 "
the ,partitiun wall being removed, here a
trout of upwards of 40 feet on Gay street, and
extend back 170 feet to Frederick street.
They are six stories high, and devoted mdely
to show-rooms, except three small apart
tnents, which are used as a finishing room,
r upholstery shop, a nd a counting-room.
The Lower story is on a level with Freder
ick street. It is devoted solely to ordinary
ehaniber bedsteads, kiteheu furniture, fire., of
which there is an immense stock, corn rrising
irrest many varieties of style and descrip
tion
The second floor, that on a level with Gay
Street, oat/tains a great variety of furniture,
Which is placed here, we believe, more as
samples of styles and descriptions than for
purposes of sato. Here are found fancy bed
steads, tiefas, rocking chairs, wardrobes, ta
bles, stands, tic., from the very finest destrlp
tions tO ordinary cherry or maple furniture
which the most economical housekeeper is al
most compelled to possess.
On the third fluor is a magnificent display
Of parlor furniture, comprising splendid rose
wood, walnut and mahogany: tete-a-tetes, so
11,st arm and parlor chairs, in coverings of
richest brucistelle, plush and hair cloth ; also,
every variety of eteger or 'what-nob," and
some very handsome wardrobes, escritoires,
buratto*, hat and umbrella rocks, .k.c. Some
of these are of descriptions sufficient to grati
fy the greatest lover of luxury and di- t iiay,
while others rear the appearance of utility
and durability, and are bell at prices more
suitable to the purse of the man of moderate
income.
The fourth story contains an astonishing
variety' of chamber furniture in setts, varying
from $3O to $175. and of course from common
to magniteent. We also found here a variety
oreane seat chairs, rocking-chairs,washstands,
tables, &c.
In the sth story are all kinds of dining-room
furniture, of varluus prices and styles, dis
played, smug which are extension tables of
every size, lounges, settees, dining-room
chain, Lc.
The Gth story is devoted exclusively to com
mon Windsor chairs, rocking-chairs, sick-rouru
chairs, kc., &c.
One striking peculiarity of this establish
ment is the facility with which any single
piece of furniture contained in Bean be shown
without disturbing any other piece. This af
fordi the purchaser a fair-chance to examine
all and select to suit his own taste or judg
ment. And any one wishing to make pup-
chases in this line, who could not be suited
here, must certainly be must extremely fastid
ious.
Another advantage offered here is the fact
that there are sufficient number of polite
and obliging s sllft`ilUell to wait on all who way
come in; and it is male the duty of these,
too, to show the establislunent throughout to
any who may call and express a desire to pass
through it, even though they should nut be
purchasers. This establishment is frequent
ly visited by strangerl from Boston, New
York and some. of whom are
engaged in the same business, and all agree
in pronouncing- it the in .st extensive as well
as the best managed furniture warehouse in
this country.
We have already sail that no mantifactur
ing is done in this building. Mr. M's. fur
niture is niannfletured by his own employees,
but in seseral different .hops. each undes the
supervision of all excellent laird onupetent fore
man. The relation he occupies to his work
men is such that any piece of bad work may
be thrown hack upon their hands, without de
triment to his interests, and the result is that
complaints are seldom heard of any article of
furniture sent from this mammoth furnteire
warehouse.
Another great desideratum to the purcha
ser is the I•iw price at which Mr. 3l.'s I ,, ftetia
enables him to furnish any article in his line.
In this respect the inducements he offers are
fully-equal to those of any other cquipetitor
either here or in other cities. And, again,
Ildter — the purchasers Late eqneludecl their
bargaining. they may repair to the spacious
obearratnry, which eurinountip the building,
anti enjoy a splendid view of the city.

The trial of Mrs. Emma Augusta
Cunningham, (claiming to be Mrs. Bur
dell,) accused of the murder of Dr. Bur
den, Dentist, of New York city, was be
fore the Criminal Court of that city
week before last. The mysterious man
ner iu which-Dr. Burdell was murdered,
created a profound sensation throughout
the country, and is still fresh in the re
collections ..of the people. There were
those who believed Mrs. C. to be the
guilty party in the transaction; but the
case R-as not !wide out before the jury
and the trial was brought to a close on
Saturday evening week, by tri• .jury
rendering, a verdict of "not guilty"
against the accved. Mr. Eckel, impli
cated with her in the murderous 'charge,
was dischargod on his own recognizance
in the sum ofBsooo to stand his trial.—
As Mrs. C. has been cleated, it is not
probable that the Commonwealth can
sustain a case against Eckel. The trial
commanded a great deal of - attention
during its progress.
