TROL THE NORFOLK SHOE-MARKET, AT WHOLE
SALE? Some years ago the Proprietor .of : the famous
Ladies' Shoe Saloon, put in his claim to do a large share of
.1. ! . a.1 i 1 . f .1. C3i i - . - t;
iiua jjuruuuur uruiiuu ui iiie oiiuw ousiness, Dy importing
one of the LARGEST STOCKS OF BOOTS AND SHOES
which had ever been sent to Norfolk. Since then, at each
successive season, our stock has gradually increased until
the present time, and now we do a larger business than any
other house in Eastern Virginia, -
The Ladies' Saloon was first established about twelve
years ago, and the Store has been repeatedly altered and en
larged to make room for Mr. ADDINGTON'S increasing
trade, until now the old Store can be no longer enlarged.
He has recently built for himself one of the largest Stores
i- . i ,. -r-r 1 ...
I or nis Dnsiness in xne umiea oiaves.
The New Store is four times as large as the old one, so
that hereafter we shall be prepared with the goods to do the
largest Boot and Shoe Trade done in the State of Virginia.
(A complete description of this splendid new Store will be
given about the 15th of July, when it will be opened.)
At the commencement ot each season we have on hand
from $80,000 to 100,000
worth of BOOTS and SHOES, while we constantly receive
heavy shipments of goods during its continuance. Our suc
cess has indeed been signal, and whv? Because we have al
ways conducted our business on equitable principles, mutu
aiiv oeneutiii me aviicr auu me uuty.
This success is truly flattering to us, insomuch we intend
to make still larger additions to our stock, and therefore in
vite all Country Merchants and Shoe Dealers to come and
deal for the future with us at the new store.
HUNDREDS OF MERCHANTS have already availed
themselves of our invitation, who return and buy goods at
each season, saying, " they can do better at the LADIES'
SALOON than they can do at the Sortk." We guarantee to
sell at least 5 per cent, less than others, and to sell goods
which will suit the retail trade of Virginia and North-Carolina
Merchants better than any they may purchase else
where. The Stock consists in part of
Gentlemen's Fine Boots and Shoes, of every fashionable
variety,
Ladies' Gaiter Boots, Jenny Linds, and other celebra
ted styles,
Men's Calf-skin Brogans, of every variety,
" " Boots, " "
" Kip Brogans, " "
" " Boots, " "
" Coarse, Thick Brogans, fbr Negroes,
" Boots, "
Dutch Women's Brognns, for outdoor. Women, Field
hands, and for Cooks,
Women's Leather Bootees, fbr House Servants, &c.
" Shoes of everv kind and quality,
Boys' Kip and Coarse Boots and Shoes of all kinds,
Misses' and Children's Shoes of all kinds, over 10 dif
ferent varieties.
The attention of Country Merchants is invited to this im
mence Stock of Boots, Shoes and Brogans, at the Ladies'
Saloon, where they can buy every article' wanted by them
at the lowest wholesale prices, thereby saving themselves
the trouble and expense of going to the North for their
supplies.

CLUSTER SPRINGS, IN HALIFAX COUNTY,
Ya. Analyst. The Sulphur water contains :
Sulphuretted Hydrogen Gas,
Carbonic Acid Gas,
Sulphate of Lime,
Sulphate of Magnesia,
Carbonate of Lime.
The Chalybeate Water contains -Cai
bouic Acid Gas,
Peroxide of Iron,
Carbonate of Lime.
The Lime Water contains:
Bi-Carbonate of Lime.
The above analysis shows at once the variety of remedi
al agency which mav be brought in requisition with a view
to the removal of disease. lu further testimonv of their
extensive utility in removing disease, I subjoin the follow
ing items of testimony from distinguished professional gen
tlemen :
Doct. D. P. Gardner, former Professor of Chemistry at
Hampden Sidney College, says of the Sulphur water, that
" It is sufficiently strong for medicinal purposes." And of
the Chalybeate water, that " It is the purest lie has ever met
with."
Doct. J. P. Metteanor savs, "Whv do vou not advertise
your waters more extensively?" Whilst Doct. C. II. Jor
dan of Person county, N. C, Doct. Wm. M. Carrington,
Doct. Wm. B. Jennings, Doct. C. Craddock, Doct. G. B.
Marable, and Doctors J7 E. A M. A. Harris, all of the coun
ty of Halifax, testify to tho utility of these waters in the
following terms : " From experience we can safely recom
mend the Sulphur water in Dyspepsia. It is the best anti
aoid we ever knew. Food cannot possibly sour in a stomach
habitually supplied with the Sulphur water. It is invalua
ble in those chronic derangements of the Liver dependent
on gastric irritation. Torpor of the Liver is speedily re
lieved by it. The worst cases of kidney and bladder affec
tions are promptly relieved ; whilst in uterine affections, it
acts like a charm in restoring and correcting its irregulari
ties and suppressions.
Of tho Chalybeate water, they say: "It is an agreeable
Chalybeate ; none can be found more pleasant or agreeable
to the taste, or more desirable in those diseases which de
mand the use of Iron."
With the above variety of remedial agents, in so palata
ble a shape, located in a beautiful and healthful region of
country traversed by Stages, and soon to bo by Railreads,
the undersigned flatters himself, that the Clcstkb Spuixgs
.will soon become the centre of attraction for the wealthy and
elite of the land. HENRY EASLEY.

UINTON UTLEY'S TOOTH-ACHE DROPS, for
, the cure of the Tooth-Ache: one of tho greatest dis
coveries of the 19th Century. From the numerous ampli
cations I have had for the above preparation, for the last few
months, the uniform success which has attended its use, its
salutary effects, its power to give immediate relief in the
severest coses of Tooth-Ache, I have been induced to offer
it to those who may be afflicted, with the utmost confidence
in its virtue, and the full belief that it will subdue and give
entire relief to the severest tooth-ache without the slightest
injury to the tooth. I have got (and can get) numerous tes
timonials of its efficacy some from distinguished gentlemen,
and all from as reliable persons as are in the State, a publi
cation of which I deem unnecessary at this time, as one of
these Drops when tried in an aching tooth will be worth
more to the manufacturer and the patient, than all the cer
tificates from great men that could be procured.
The preparation is known only to myself. Everyphial is
carefully put up by my own hands in the City of Raleigh,
and labelled with "directions for use, and may be found at
Ira Beckwith's Store, on Fayetteville street, a few doors
North of the Yarbrough House, and opposite Lawrence's
Hotel, where it will be constantly kept for sale either by the
wholesale or retail. Also for sale by the retail at Jones'
Drug Store, Sycamore street, Petersburg, Va., and at Ax
brew Beits' Store, Wake County, N. C. Retail price 50
cents, per Bottle liberal deduction made when taken by the
quantity. '
To all who mav have the Tooth-Ache try it, and then it
will need no puffing.
All orders from a distance promply attended to by Mr.
Beckwith or myself.
