Av E THE respectfully pit E,ii s announc e that JAMES'S s-e BUILDINGS, lia OPENED L N u E IF D STREET, for the purpose of carrying on an extensive Ready Money Trade in TEAS and COFFEES. The Traffic in Tea, an article grown almost exclusively in one district of Asia, and in a country,' comparatively isolated If from Western Nations, affords one of the most remarkable illustrations of the energy and enterprise of modern commerce. The trade now rOgu!arly employs 60,000 tons of first-class British spipping, and annually contributes £ - 3,000,000 stiriin; to the Exchequer. The total cost of the article to this country is estimated at about XiO,OOO,CUO annually. In the hands of our Merchants in China it is the great article of barter, which enables them to dispose of the productions of our manufac turing industry, which are taken in exchange for it by the chin ese l A trade of midi magnitude, involving interest's so important, connected so'intimately with the social habitA of the commu nity and with the donicsiic ccomitny-of every family, renders the price and quality of the article supplied an object of para mount consideration to all COI.I/fliers. The employment of ample resources, both in the possession of adequate capital and the acquirement of extensive experience in the first mercantile houses connected with the trade, en courage us to anticipate that the advantages we are thus enabled to afford will be appreciated by the public at large. We deem it needless to indulge in professions of unprecedented cheapness and exclusive. advantages, in the conviction that the judgment of those who may favour us with their support will be the best security for the continuance of their favours.
