NEW GOODS!
ALL the goods belonging-to the late Firm of J.I M
W. Murphy having been sold out at Auction, a
new firm has been formed with a capital of 30,000,
all of which has been invested in the Northern Markets
for new goods ; and the said firm are now receiving and
opening at the large brick store formerly occupied by
J. (. W. Murphy, direct! from Philadelphia and New
York, an entirely new stiock of ,
FRESH GOODS:
Consisting of French, English, German", Scotch, ajid
American Dry Goods ; Hardware, Cutlery, Queensware,!
HATS, BONNETS, BOOTS, SHOES.
BOOKS, COMBS, ; .
Plated and Saddlery Hardware, !
Carriage Trimmings,
Carpenters' Tools,
And all kinds of GROCERIES and all
other hind of GOODS
We wish to be understood, (not blowing and braErsiriff)
that we speak the truth when we say thai we are open
ing at this time yy
THE LARGEST STOCK OF
NEW GOODS
that has ever been opened in this place; and as for
beauty and. style the ladies say we have the prettiest and
cheapest they have yet seen. And why should . they not J
say so," when our goods are all entirely new and all, I
bought for cash, and such a large quantity W them.
We deem it entirely unnecessary to enumerate :;
the articles composing our stock, as it has become too
fashionable-for persons to advertise three br four times ij
s much as they -actually havt! But suffice it to say,?;
that we have a well assorted stock of all kinds of Goods!
of every description ; and that they are alj paid for, and r
paid for with our own money, With all these adv.n- '!
tages we think we can safely say that we will sell themj'
a little lower than any ojf our neighbors, and we would ii
merely say to one and all to give us a call, hear prices, fi
examine fqr yourselves and be your own judges. Jj
