Something New at Virginia.--The greatest excitement in the clothes dealing line ever known at Virginia is progressing there now. A firm recently established on C street [Barmir Bros], posted notices and advertised to the effect that they would sell clothing or anything else in their line, fifty per cent cheaper than any other dealers in town. This created a belligerency, in consequence of which the other dealers yesterday started in to undersell them and run them out. The well known and long established firm of Haas & Co. advertise to-day to sell one hundred per cent. cheaper than anybody else, and the consequence is that a huge run is being made on their establishment. They will sell full business suits, of first rate material, for ten dollars each.
