INTRODUCTORY NOTE.
The Authors of tlic present work have frequently
heard a wish expressed for a more complete set of
Adtanoe Tables than any hitherto published in
thid country. To meet that want the following
Tables have been prepared, and are now offered to
the Mercantile Public, in the belief that they will be
found, not only more comprehensive, but also more
accurate and reliable than anything' of a similar kind
in use. A glance at a page will show the arrangement
of the work. The top line contains the rates per
Cent, and the left hand column the prices or sterling
costs.
The Flannel Table will be found a new, and it
is hoped, a valuable feature in a work of this kind.
It may bo proper to state that repetend decimals
and others, where they exceed the five thousandth of
a cent, are expressed as a one hundreth part, for ex-
ample, 60 per cent on a penny is 0,026606, expressed
0,02*'', 80 per cent on the same amount is 0,02999,
expressed 0,03. The computations have been made
with the greatest care, and the method adopted in
checking the proof-sheets has been such as almost to
preclude the possibility of typographical errors occur-
ing.
N.B.—The attention of Buyers is directed to the
cards of some of the leading Importers and Wholesale
Dealers, which will be found in the concluding pages.
