SPECIAL DEPARTMENT.

     THE GUIDE now has a world-wide and rapidly increasing circulation, is purchased by all classes, and is read in all parts of the world.

     We have deemed it important to insert a condensed list of the principal Bankers, Manufacturers, Importers, Merchants and others, who are engaged in different kinds of legitimate trade throughout the United States. We admit none but those who we think are, from position, integrity and ability, worthy to be rated as first class, and those only who can be recommended with implicit confidence.
