Coprrt*b> A Spring Opening. Wc have none. No chance for , I ; If we would keep our choice;] .i-things put away until a given time, 1 ' and then offer them to the public t I at once, we should be foiled, for < I I people come in the winter when the 1 : 'frost is in the air, and snow and ice s I the earth in bondage, while our 1 1 preparations are just forming for s t j the spring campaign, and demand ] t' the new goods. It would be ungra- 1 : cious to refuse ; and so. perforce, we 1 r cannot have a Spring - Opening. ; - But we can open with a spring, and 1 1 , as we write, while hardly a Cjrstingj i , bud is to be seen upon the trees,') j the spring trade is springing on ui ,1 . with a refreshing rush.
