been aoewteute4, to- giving it, and now,
when it is ahnostitoo late, renew their ac
quaint ance with us. : We are pleased to
see them thus invite ; our merchants to'
their 'market, thoo we fear it will be a
long 'time before they recover from the
neglect of the past. Philadelphia has
eminently superior claims upon our trade.
than New York, pein g ,:the metropolis of
our State; - but if it has failed to enjoy the
profits of that trade, the fault is with her,
not With us. I Oni merchants trade where
there is most inducement held out to
them r hykeepingf that particular market
carefully before them in the columns of
their newspaper„and to. the neglect of
Philadelphia to call their attention to
her wares, must lbe attached all blame,
for, her nut receiving a larger portion of
our trade. We believe that the commu
nication with Philadelphia is jost as good
as that wath New York, and her claims
upon our trade are 'certainly more prom
inent. , We hope, therefore, that our
merchants will give. her claims some at
tention,in future and in order that they
may know where to make their purchases
with advantage, 1\43 ash them to look over
