IMPORTANT NOTICIk TO THE INHABITANTS OF CLYDE AND SURROUNDING DISTRICT. JEFFERY AND FRASER, while thanking tho Public for the liberal patronage accorded them during the past two years, would intimate that they havo added to their BREAD AND BISCUIT BUSINESS A Stock of GROCERIES, GENERAL PROVISIONS. DRAPERY, &.c.; and they trust by their supplying a Firstclass article at the lowest remunerative rates, combined with punctuality and civility, to merit a share of public support in all their branches of business. J. and F. would further intimate that they will now charge NINEPENCE for the FOUR-POUND LOAF, instead of a Shilling. The reason of the reduction is that they have got their Business into proper working order, and the fact that they are now in a position to bny large quantities of Flour from the first hand. J. and F. would beg to assure the public that this is not one of the usual squibs, or fluctuating reductions generally resorted to by opponent bakers in order to make the weaker party collapse, and thus have the field to themselves, but they havo duly considered the matter, and can conscientiously state that it shall be a permanency.
