| TEXT | Mr. Van Horn began business in 1860 on a small capital, and by untiring devotion to the same since that time has established a trade and business connections extending at the present day over a greater portion of the United States. The premises now occupied by him consist of a spacious and commodious warehouse, 25x200 feet in size, embracing three floors, running from Market to Campbell Streets. These three floors are filled with a large and complete assortment of merchandise, embracing every variety: Fine walnut bed-room suites on first floor; on second floor, carpets, parlor suites, library, dining-room furniture, lounges, oil-cloths, stoves, bedding, mattings, etc.; third floor, ash and enameled bed-room suites. Part of this floor is devoted to the manufacture of fine parlor suites and other furniture to order. All prices are popular, and special credit is given. Goods are delivered free to all parts of New Jersey. The valuation of this immense stock varies from $75,000 to 150,000, and the annual trade reaches 100,000. From twelve to twenty-five assistants are required in the various departments of this extensive establishment, and the trade continues to increase in importance. Mr. A. H.
