I AM now receiving and opeining in the town of MINDEN, a choice and select assortment of NEW GOODS, to which I would respectfully invite the attention of purchasers. My stock comprises a general variety of both DRY GOODS and GROCERIES, which I selected myself, with much care, and with an eye single to the wants and demands of the people. I purchased my Goods, too, at a time when the market chanced to be lower than at any other period of the season; and I will be able, and am determined, to sell at the very lowest rates of the trade. My customers shall not have it to say that they can get Goods cheaper at any other house in Minden. 
  Having lived in this community always, I claim to know something of the wants of the people, and think I have reasonable grounds to hope and expect a liberal share of the public patronage. 
  My manner of trading is to make quick sales and small profits - to live and let live - and not to make it all in a day, or off of one man. 
  When you come to MINDEN, inquire for and be certain to call at the house of W. T. HADLEY. Dec. 16th, 1865. 51-

IF you want something very neat, or even fancy, for your wife, daughter or sister, call at the store of W. T. HADLEY.

FAMILY Groceries, Confectionery, and good things generally, for sale cheap for cash, at the store of W. T. HADLEY.

POWDER, Shot and Caps, all of the best quality, and in quantity and of sizes to suit purchasers, and at lower rates positively than can be had elsewhere in the market - if you do not think so, call and see at the store of W. T. HADLEY.

LADIES' and Misses' Fashionable Hats - the neatest, prettiest, and cheapest in the market, at the store of W. T. HADLEY.
