Particularly devoted to the general trade interests of the country, has an established commercial circulation extending throughout the Southern and Western States.
The success that has marked the career of the St. Louis Commercial is so complete that whilst it is a matter of no little satisfaction to ourselves it should also be a source of gratification to our thousands of patrons. The Commercial has made itself as necessary to the merchant as The Family Bible is to the household, especially those residing at a distance from St. Louis. The merchant in the country checks his invoices by our questions, he regulates his purchases and sales to a large extent by our reports of the condition of trade and the prospects of the market, and always is well posted as to the enterprise and also the general capacity of the city firms for transacting business and supplying the class of articles he needs.
