SMALL, THE COFFEE TRADE THIS important branch of commerce (particularly as 1. attached to our own port) being now consolidated by the operation of the New Tariff, has caused a considerable alteration in prices ; and in accordance with the system with which we started this concern, when alterations take place, we deem it requisite to give it publicity, which we shall al ways keep in view for the benefit of consumers. _ Having by careful estimate of — all the different varieties now in THE PORT OF LONDON, and comparing the same with the qualities here obtainable, and the quantities likely to be forthcoming of the most deservedly popular sorts, we are now prepared to submit a scale of prices which will be found to include the long-expected desideratum of ECONOMY and EXCELLENCE. Much has been said of the disappointment that would be found in the operation of the New Scale, as only one penny per pound reduction appears to be made on by far the g reater portion of the RAW COMMODITY, namely, on East Inia and Foreign kinds, and twopence per pound on British Plantation, of which the consumption is diminu tive compared with the former, as will appear by the official returns, to which we refer you ; this would seem to be hardly acceptable to the consumer, but this narrow view of a grand commercial question shuts out the most important feature, since it is not the mere statistic impost, but the important fact of the FINEST COFFEES grown on the face of the globe being now admissible at the same duty as trash, which will give the immense advantage, when energy, experience, and capital are employed to secure it. This is lost sight of by the majority of dealers who have no opportunity of seeing all that comes to EVERY MARKET, and without this the best purchases are never known to them ; and pass for the most part, into hands who tax largely on the unwitting confidence of those who never see the said goods until they are in second hands. The absurd practice of sending cargoes from foreign ports half round the world, to be re-shipped and re-entered at the Cape of Good Hope, to the great deterioration of the quality, and thus largely enhancing the cost, IS NOW EXPLODED, so that the first cost of the article has to be added to the re duction of the tax. H., W., and Co., taking their data from these points, lost sight of by most, &Id acting up to their determination, have made arrangements always to secure just that description of goods which will, by contributing to their correspondents' interests, increase their credit and connexion, and enable them to supply henceforth FINE MOCHA.

THIS Company, established by Act of Parliament, afforas A the most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only requires, when an insurance is for the whole period of life, one-hall of the very moderate premiums to be paid for the first five years after the date of the policy ; the other half may remain, subject to the payment of interest at 5 per cent. annually, to be deducted at death, or may be previously paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate income to secure, by this arrangement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time, after effecting the insur ance, succeed to or acquire a fortune, he may relinquish his policy, having only paid one-half the premiums for the first five years, instead of the whole, as in all other Companies. Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of £2B 16s. 3d., for the first five years, and afterwards the full premium, £57 12s. 6d. yearly, secure to his widow and children, at his death, payment of no less than £3OOO, sub. ject only to the deduction of £144 is. 3d., being the amount of premium unpaid. On the Ist of July the Board of Directors added 2 per cent. per annum as a bonus to those assured on the partici pating plan, from the dates of their policies, thus appro priating £2O a year as an addition to every policy for £lOOO. The following table will show the amount of the bonus on policies for £lOOO since the commencement of the Company in March, 183 1 : - Sums Assured.

RECENT events have awakened so general a feeling of the momentous importance of securing a protection from fire to Deeds, Records, M.SS., Books and Papers of Ac compt, Cash, Gunpowder, and all combustible materials, that THOS. MILNER and SON feel excused in again in viting public notice to their Patent Fire-resisting Deposito ries. Having submitted their one-chambered Boxes, of one inch in thickness, to severe trials in the principal towns, they have received from the authorities of each the most satisfac tory certificates of their efficiency for ordinary casualties ; and being confirmed in opinion by a long course of experi ment, that, under suitable modification of chambers and thickness of boxes, the peculiar principle of their Patent is capable of affording security under the severest ordeal likely to occur in calamities of the kind, they respectfully solicit the consideration of Gentlemen interested in mechanical science to the subject generally, and investigation into the pretensions of the various means of security in use, their own amongst the rest. M. and S. are prepared to submit their manufactures to public trial with any others of equal dimensions, whilst their comparatively moderate cost renders them extensively avail. able: The certificate of the satisfactory trial of their Boxes in Liverpool bears the signatures of the following Gentlemen, to whom permission of reference is kindly given , THOMAS BOLTON.

Liverpool, June 20th, 1842. We have this day witnessed the trial of one of Milner's Patent Fire-proof Double-celled Gunpowder Magazines, of twelve inches external, and six inches Internal diameter and height, filled with highly combustible materials, papers, and a packet of Gunpowder. The same was placed in the centre of a fire consisting of five to six cwt. of coal and a quantity of wood, and remained therein upwards of three hours, during two-thirds of which time the magazine was surrounded by a complete furnace of intense heat. Neither the inner magazine nor its contents were at all injured by the fire, nor did they evince any signs of the se vere ordeal to which they had been exposed, beyond being pervaded to the very centre w i th steam f rom the alkal ine solutioi?, contained in tubes embedded in the nonconductor occupying the chamber of each cell. In proof of the intense heat of the fire, the wood was wholly consumed, the entire quantity of coal converted into toke, and the bricks upon which the fire was made were aken out red hot.

MILLER'S TEA ESTABLISHMENT, 112, S. JAMES'S-STREET, CORNER OF WILL OPEN ON SATURDAYJORDAN-STF,EET, NEXT. To the Nobility, n —entry. Clergy, Merchant!, Trade and Consumers_ of Tea and Coffee of every 'Cie nay, and Dependencies. announcing to the above classes, the opening of this New Tea and Coffee Establishment, we beg to make a remarks that we deem worthy their attention : If we look back on the history of the Tea Trade, and trace the :various changes that it has undergone since the Article was first introduced amongst us, we shall find them as great and numerous as in'any other branch of trade what ever: for if we compare the quantity imported, the quality, or the price, with what they were thirty years ago, we find a changed in a most extraordinary manner : but these aot the only changes. At the close of that greatest and t compact Monopoly that ever existed in England, or in other country, we find the greatest revolution : our Tea imported by one company, from one port, and grown and prepared by one people; it is now imported by a ' er of private individuals, from various ports and and it is manufactured by Englishmen, as well as rown and prepared by the Chinese : in fact, all connected Tith it have radically changed, save the retail dealer,--the only one the consumer can look to for a legitimate article, at a fair price. After that Monopoly bad been abolished, the Trade increased so vastly, as to occupy the attention of thousands ;• and Houses in the Tea Trade were established to superintend the manufacturing of Tea (to speak properly, dried leaves), and their operations have been confined, principally, to that of imitating the green descriptions of Tea.' Of late years numerous samples of Dyed Congou have made their appearance in the market, dyed and dressed to imitate Fine Black-Leafed Congou. The consequence is almost incredible! quantities of spurious Tea, dressed and prepared with pernicious substance, to give it appearance, are annually sent to England. The following extracts will give you its true character : " Canton Green Tea, of all sorts, is made at Canton, out of llohea ; it is coloured and made bright and beautiful, but in drinking it is rough and sour."—•‘ Canton Gunpowder is very fine to look at; it is like the Brummagem ware—made to sell ; it is like copper washed with silver.''—Besides these base counterfeits, there are various other unsound kinds, that are daily given to the Consumer : such as sea-damaged, heated, and otherwise damaged Teas. With these facts before us, it will scarcely be necessary for us to say that, before the retail dealer can be qualified to supply this im portant article of consumption, he must have vastly extended his knowledge of the article, and changed in his method of • • his business. no lon nductin H —.yin- pointed out to you some of the various kinds of trash that are consumed by the British Public. to the amount of some millions of pounds annually, you will be ready to ask,—Who would sell such stuff ?—who has the boldness to place it in the hands of their customers? We will tell you : Those who do not understand the article they deal in, and this class is numerous : they may have been many years in the trade, and, when there was little or no competition, may have succeeded in establishing themselves; yet, with them, the Tea Trade is one of unlimited confidence in the Public Sales,—the Canton Teas being very often put into their hinds, In the second place, the general Grocer, also, — whose attention is so much occupied by the great variety in which he deals, that he cannot be expected to judge so accu rately of the value and flavour of Tea and Coffee, as the Trodesman who confines himself to those articles . And, thirdly,—those who are obliged to buy on credit.—These classes get the Bad Teas. In announcing the opening of this Establishment, it may 'ell for us In say, that it will be founded on such prin les as cannot fail to claim for us a iarge share of public ge and support, with a view to permanency and pro gressive improvement. The great experience we have had in the Trade; the full knowledge of, and attention we have paid to, the flavor and value of Teas ; ample Capital to pur chase at the best times, and at the best Markets; and our profits allowing but a bare Commission ' • thus enable us to make quick returns, that ou r St oc k maybe constantly fresh. Every Chest will be thoroughly examined before it is offered to Customers ; it being our determination to offer no articles for sale but such as we can warrant to be of a genuine and true description. be as vo patrona, We wilinow proceed to show upon what Terms we can supply Teas, warranted, and selected by ourselves : s. d.

MILLER and Co. will yield the palm to none of their competitors. To select—not merely for their opening Stock, but in every purchase—the very best lots ; to pay strict attention to that process, on which so much depends for developing the agree able aromatic properties and rich nutritive qualities of this wholesome Berry; and to enable their friends to indulge in the use of a delightful beverage, at the lowest possible cost ; will ever be, with them, paramount objects : and as they will now derive supplies of this article from new sources, and the prices will be further reduced by increased production and competition, the patronisers of MILLER'S TEA ESTABLISHMENT will ever be amongst the first to participate in the beneficial results of the amended Tariff. 5. d. 1 0 1 4 1 8 In the now vastl Common Coffee Fine Java FINE FOIiEIG2.I DITTO (This kind was -not admitted for home consumption before the alteration of the Tariff : it will be found equal to that which was sold by Grocers at 25.)

SHEFFIELD AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY. — The first sod of the Old Park contract on this line, was turned up by Charles Appleby, Esq., on the Ist inst. several other direc tors, shareholders, and contractors, being present. The la bour is to be performed, in accordance with an arrangement entered into with the contractors, by the able-bodied poor, who are to be paid in proportion to the quantity of work done. DUBLIN AND KINGSTOWN RAILWAY.—A special general meeting of the above company was held on Monday, at the establishment in Westland-row, James Perry, Esq., in the chair. The result of the meeting was, that the Directors re ceived authority to affix the common seal of the company to a mortgage to the Board of Works for a loan of £25,000, for the extension of the railway to Dalkey.—Dublin Monitor. The averages last week quote the duty on the import of Foreign Wheat, at 14s. which is held by most of the ex perienced dealers in the market to be an admitting rate ; that is, that there will be supplies received for public consumption, on which will be paid this figure. The shipments of forei gn wheat from German and Prussian ports to this country con tinues on a large, we might say, on an almost unlimited scale. that alid THE.

His intention was Bridge, into the river, on We dnesday c, and announced by h an d - bills on th e previous evening , at the time fixed (four o'clock) hun dreds of persons assembled witness this daring and novel to exploit.

The mayor told him that, as a foreigner, the bench were inclined to deal leniently, and discharged him on paying costs; but that the police would keep a strict eye upon him, and if he disobeyed their injunctions, he would be ta ken up and bound o ver to keep the peace. About six o'clolc in the evening of the not to be diverted from his same day, determined bridge, • purpose, Smith went privately on to the and dispatched hi s companions to apprise certain parties, who had befriended him, of his determination to they ; several were, however, yin , before arrived, perched himself' disappointed. ha g _ _ afrom on the summit of the lang t -frame, t me, .rom whence, waving his cap gallantly. he sprung in 1 . he river Wear—a height p.. wards of 110 feet!
