What it lias done and is now doing can be seen by any one wishing to purchase re ferring to our books. The situation of the building is such that it com mands the greater part of the custom coming to and passing through this place. For the amount of capital invested, there is no bu siness that a person could engage in that would pay as well. J. H. ROBERTS & CO. Sept 11, 1856. 38tf NEW LAW HOOKS.
