The exhibition of goods was ad- mirably arranged for inspection, and we venture the assertion that a nicer display of silks, satins, embroi- deries, ribbons, notions and staple goods were never placed before the gaze of an admiring public. The rich and beautiful dress goods dis- played on the counters wer a sur- to even his customers, and the compliments were showered down upon the firm by the great throng of spectators, like drops of rain. The millinery and carpet display was very attractive. prise The millinery 1 display was exceptionally pretty, anc the lady at the head of this depart- ment deserves especial praise for the manner in which she had performed her part of the evening’s entertain- ment. By special invitation Gov. More heuse,who chanced to be in the city, was present and lent Mr. Levy valu- able assistance in the way of pre- senting souvenirs to the ies and making himself generally cable, and thus an opportunity was fur- nished the lady visitors to see the governor of the state.
