 anything got up in New York or elsewhere.

 from. 
 
 East Lake, Queen Anne, (irecian, and other desirable styles, from

 to order in every style. We are now having made in Fran e fifteen 
 pieces of the latest and best patterns of Coverings in Raw Silk Turkish 
 Tapestries, Persian, Danish and Norwegian Cashmeres. Tampas de
