| TEXT | A prominent house engaged in the carpet and oil-cloth trade, is that of Mr. Reuben Smith, Nos. 18 and 30 Astor Place, which was originally established as far back as 1830, in Pearl Street, and was eventually removed to its present eligible location during the current year. The premises occupied are very spacious and commodious, and comprise a first floor and basement one hundred and thirty by fifty feet in dimensions, which are furnished with all modern conveniences that good taste and enterprise can suggest. The stock carried is of a varied and complete character, and include a splendid assortment of Axminster, Wilton velvet, pile tapestry, Brussels, ingrain, and Turkey manufactured carpets, also China, cocoa and Napier mattings, imported mats and rugs, linoleum, window shades, etc. In these goods Mr. Smith carries an extensive stock, received direct from the manufacturers, and shows an ample selection of all the standard designs in new shades and colors, a trade being transacted that extends throughout New York and New England. Mr. R. Smith is the oldest merchant in the carpet trade in this city. The manager, Mr. S. C. Croft, has been connected with this establishment for the last sixteen years, and has made hosts of friends in consequence of his kind and courteous manners and undeviating probity. |
