Tho proprietor is Mr. James V7. Fowler, and with a display of taste for which only woman usually receives credit, he has fitted up a Fashion Empo? rium and tilled it with an assortment of goods in Iiis line which is irresistible. I reckon that more irate wives have been appeased by Fowler's beau? tiful headgear presented by penitent husbands 1 than would fill the largest church in this place." The Proprietor of the "Emporium of Fashion" takes pleasure in proclaiming to the public that he is now prepared re show a hand? some stock of Dry Goods and as g-and a display of M'lilnery as can be found in the State. In Dress-Making he is prepared to insure satis? faction to the most fastidious. The Ladies in charge of the Millinery and Dress-Making Departments have returned from their visit to Ealtimore with a complete under? standing of the Fall styles in their respective De? partments. I am not going to charge high prices, neither am I going to charge such low prices as will cause a failuro in either branch. No busi? ness is worth following unless such prices are realized as will insure success. Bridal outfits gotten up at very short notice. Goods suitable for any kind of Dress always on hand. Trim? mings to match. Dresses cut and basted at short notice; Ladies sending orders by mail for Hats, Bon? nets, &c, will please mention color of hair and eyes, whether married or single, and any other particulars that would be of use to us in getting up any article of Dress.
