THE Subscriber after returning Iicr most cordial thanks for the very libe ral encouragement she has hitherto recei ved at the hands of her patrons, begs leave to announce through the medium of t Ii e Press, that she has just returned from New York, and is hourly expecting the ar livalnf her purchases. With due defer ence to the public, truth and justice to her self and Goods compels her to say that, A MORE NEAT AND Valuable Assortment, Was never offered in this section, and that I hey surpass any of her former purchases as much as the effulgence of the sun does the pallid light of the moon mid she would simply suggest lo those persons who are desirous of procuring articles in her line of business, of the most fashionable style and at ihe cheapest rates, to favor her with n call ere they purchase else where, or they may sincerely regret their non-compliance with I his intimation. She thinks it highly probable that among her assortment may be found ai tides vastly superior both in style and texture to any in this place. Believing they will be in great demand, and relying in the truth of the old saying that, they who live for oth ers live the more for themselves, she as sures her friends that her prices for those Goods will not be more exorbitant on that account, than if every store in town was filled to overflowing with similar ones. The following list of articles comprise her Slock: Oriental gros Bonnets, Florence do. Oriental cut do. fancy Tuscan grcs do. Folio do. French gimp do. plain straw do. Leghorn Tuscan do. Swiss lace do. Shell sids Combs, horn quill backs, twist and long Combs, A splendid assortment of bonnet and cap Ribbons, blond lace Veils, do.
