TO MERCHANTS PLANTER8 AND
0THRR8.
HAVING become jHjrmnnently located
in Chnrlnten, I am prepared
to do anything in the line ot' a general
Agency and Commission buaineaa entrusted
to me. I intend giving the greater
portion of my time to the filling of country
orders for Groceries, Provisions, Dry
Goods, Hardware, Clothing, Boots, Shoes,
Drugs, Paints, Oils, Fruit, Liquors,
Books, Stationary, Fancy Goods, or any
thing else that can l?e obtained either in
this or Northern Markets, and through
the arrangements that 1 have inade with
the leading House*,.dealing l',c >d>o\e
articles, I shall l*eable to innke purchases
on better terms than the Merchants or
Planters themselves could, thereby not
only saving them the difference in the
price of the aritcle, but also the necessary
exorbitant expense of time nnd trouble attending
a visit to this cilv. I will also
personally attend to the selecting, pack
ing, marking, and shipment of good*. ??>
m lo avoid nil mi-take*, ntnl damages
wh'ch generally arise front want of a little
attention.
In addition to the alatve, I will alw? attend
to the di?|>osal of any produce lit it
may I# shipped to me. Any ponton* desirou*
of making shipments produce of
any kind, had better write to ine, anil I
will give them every information as regard*
the Market*, manner of packing,
and how to abip them. From my long
experience in a general mercantile busttiiiena,
1 think I can give perfect xatinfliction
to all, and auit the moat fastidious
taale in my selections.?(Jive me a trial
ia all I aak. For my services I shall require
a small commission, not exceeding
ten per cent, according to the nature of
the business.

The Citizens of the Union suffer much from di
orders of the Liver and Stomach, scarcely ar

maladies, hence life wears fast. The fair se:

remedied by continually keeping the blood pui
and the Liver and Stomach in * healthy actioi
when life will (low smooth", and resemble plan
