SotTTHBRifEii Job Office- We would again
call attention of the public generally to the
superior inducements offered for executing
Job Work in the Soctbebnkr office.
It will be done up in a style equal to tlie
best offices in the country, at rates as low as
the lowest, 'and with a promptitude on a
pai with the promptest. i
'We assure our merchants and business
men in general, that now there is no necessi
ty for them to send North to have their work
printed, such as "bill-heads, letter-heads, tc
. Leave your orders with the Southkrxer
ftffice; the same will be filled in a manner
equal to your wishes both in style and
prices thus encouraging home enterprise
Notice The tax paid by W. A. Mehe-
gan, manufacturer of the Banker's C'gars,
the Cniied Sutei Government for the
year 1871, was One Tlfousind" Nine Hun
dred ami Foi'ty-ieveu Dollars and Fifty
Cents $;,047 50. This tax was paid by
the manufacturer of the Banker's Cigar,
and is a larger amount than the combined'
payments of all the manufactu'ers ar.d
dealers in'the City of Nif Ik, Va. Such
evidence is pno!' positive of the merits of
the above named Cijrars.
