They will be sold at a GitEAT Reduction on the former low prices, owing to the £aoi; that being Bought fok Cash a very large discount was allowed him, in con sequence of dull times prevailing at home. The public are well aware that the advertiser has the best chance of (Offering Bargains to them than any other Clothier in town, for the simple reason that he lr^.eps no long array of assistants, but attends to th°- wants of his customers him self, being on the premises fr-im 7 am till 10 p.m., and takes especial pride in seeing them well sui'ed, both as regards Quality, Style, and Price. During his long; business career, by attending to the above, increase of custom has been his roward. His Stock throughout has always been noted for the best and well-spoken of, no kuubisii iinding a place on his shelves, and he makes it a rule never to Buy other people's Old Rubbish at Auction also, but always keeps replenishing it from the Best Home Manufacturers, selected by his own buyer. When any of the Stock becomes out. of Date, instead of trying to pass it okf on Cus tomers as Bankrupt's Stock at enormous sacri fice, he prefers getting rid of it, and sending it himself to auction. He docs not believe in having his Creditors Selling his Goods by Auction, but sells them himself to the public at a LowFiguke, acting on the old adage, " Small Profits and Quick Returns." There is no puff ing about him. His advertisements are always genuine, and are paid for out oi ids own pocket, and not out of those of his creditors. They know they are always sure of having their claims paid in full, and so lets him "rip." The proof oi the above-nientioned can always be found if the nub 'ie will only look at the manifests of the different ships always arriving here from London, I. Levy's name always figuring pro minently as a Latige Impoktek. SPECIAL NOTICE.—As I.
