HUTCHINSON, PUBLISHER, 272 GREENWICH STREET. 1860. PURCHASING AGENCY. FOR the accommodation of my numerous friends in various parts of the country who prefer not to be at the expense of frequent visits to New York, I have made arrangements with some of the most reliable houses in the city to supply those who may favor me with their orders for BOOKS, STATIONERY, Hats and Caps, Dry-Goods, DRUGS, HARDWARE, FURNITURE, CARPETS, WALL-PAPERS, GROCERIES, ETC., ETC., on such terms as can not but be satisfactory to the purchasers. The disposition on the part of many merchants to overreach their customers when they have an opportunity of doing so, renders it almost as necessary for merchants to give references to their customers as for customers to give references of their standing to the merchants; hence I have been careful to make arrangements only with honorable and responsible houses who can be fully relied on. As my trade with those houses will be large in the aggregate, they can afford to allow me a trifling commission and still supply my customers at their _lowest rates_, which I will engage shall be as low as any regular houses will supply them. My friends and others are requested to try the experiment by forwarding me orders for anything they may chance to want, and if not satisfied, I will not ask them to repeat the experiment. Those visiting the city are invited to give me a call before making their purchases, and test the prices of the houses to whom I can with confidence introduce them. Bills for small lots of goods, if sent by express, can be paid for on delivery, or arrangements can be made for supplying responsible parties on time. Address, =O. HUTCHINSON, New York=.
