Extract from the circular of the London and Northwestern Tea

Company, dated May Ist, 1855.

"Our advises from China continue to be very discouraging;
and while the Chinese exports of tea have not failed in quantity,
they have sadly deteriorated in quality.
" Fine teas were scarce last year, and this year they are yet
more so.

" It must occur to every observing person, that where a country
is so convulsed with revolutionary struggles. farming operations
must be greatly impeded.
"Now, tea is a plant that requires the most careful attention,
both in its growth and its curing. Upon its delicate treatment
depends the delicacy of its flavour.
"Consequently, since the insurrection in China has assumed so
formidable an aspect, fine teas have gradually decreased in quan-
tity, and increased in value.
"The early arrivals were the best, and from the character of
more recent ones, we must expect the bulk of this year's supply
to consist of inferior classes, badly cured, and in bad condition,
which will be sold in the market as all faults.'

••
"Much of the tea imported this year will not be worth more
than from 6d. to Bd. per lb. in the market.
----- • • • -

Consumers or lovers of good tea should be particular, there-
fore, in buying of respectable houses, who have secured large
parcels of the first shipments."

READ THAT,

Extract from Mr. Robert Roberts's circular, of Royal Bank

Buildings.

" owing to the entire absence of speculative operations in the
market, concurrently with an increase in the imports, and a
marked improvement in the quality of good medium tea, which
has become the more observable as the season has advanced, we
are enablpd to call the attention of families to the article which
can now blt furnished at 3s. 4d. per lb.
" Although the duty upon tea was raised 3d. per lb. in the
month o( April this year—still, in consequence of a largeatock of
tea having been pressed on the market, which affords a wider
scope for the selection of suitable qualities, we are in a position to
supply families upon usually favourable terms
" The Viral: of Speculation in Tea have been lately no less
conspicucks than disastrous :—Notwithstanding the clearest prac-
tical evirltnce, which has been furnished season after season, that
England,.as well as every other country, can be abundantly sup.
plied with tea from China, of every quality, and in any quantity,
the spirit of reckless and inordinate speculation has continued as
rife as ever, until arrested this year by ruinous losses.—This foolish
propensity having been laid prostrate by the dire consequences
which it has brought upon itself, we may now anticipate for some
time a healthier tone in the market, and we have every confidence
that the change resulting from this will enable us to give every
advantage to our extended connection of consumers, which con-
tinued inflexible adherence to qualify is calculated to secure."

Merchants will witness that succeeding imports and the present state of the market corroborate the above statements of The

London, July 6, 1835.
GENTLEMEN,---The Safe you fixed here some
years ago has, indeed, proved a good one, and done
good service. Last week some thieves broke into our office, and
tried their hands upon your Safe. First they seem to have used
their crowbars, and then gunpowder, but both proved vain : for
Money, Bills, and Deeds were all safe enough in your " Safe," and
under your lock and key. We have great pleasure in informing
You of this, of which you can make any use you please.—We are,
Gentlemen, your obedient servants.

MILNERS' HOLDFAST AND FIRE-

Improved under the experienced and extensive Working of
MILNERS' QUADRUPLE PATENTS,
SEALED 1840, 1851, 1854, AND 1855.
The Strongest, Best, and Cheapest Safeguards in the world
against Fire, Robbery, or Violence. With Milners' recently
(double) Patented "Gunpowder-proof Solid Lock and Safe Door,
without which no Safe in the hands of the Public is secure.
NOTE.—AII Milner's Holdfast Safes in use may be made com-
plete with these" Improvements," and every information afforded
on application as below.
The attention of the Public is invited to the following Experi-
ments (see Liverpool Mercury and Standard of following dates:)
" Liverpool, December Bth, 1854.
" We hereby certify that we have this day witnessed some very
highly satisfactory experiments at Milners' Phoenix Safe Works,
proving the perfect security of their newly-patented ' Gunpowder-
proof Solid Locks and Safe Doors,' against attempts to force the
same open with gunpowder ; the door of ar.other safe, experi-
mented upon, fitted with the open six-lever and detector lock,
although of equal strength, being shattered and blown off by the

MILNERS' PWENIX (212') SAFEWORKS, LIVERPOOL.
The most extensive and complete in the world, employing from
two to three hundred hands, assisted by powerful, original, and
elaborate machinery and implements, adapted for every branch
of the work; established for carrying out the important improve-
ments under Milners' Quadruple Patents to the interior and ex-
terior of their Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safes, and for supply-
ing to the public the Strongest Safeguards against Fire, Robbery,
or Violence extant, at the lowest prices consistent with the most
perfect efficiency and security.
CAUTlON.—Milners' Holdfast Safes are of three qualities—
the cheapest superior to any other safes—and range under three
Lists, namely, Milners' Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe, List No.
2, at 10s. per foot; Milners' Strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting
Safe, List No. 3, at 15s. per foot; Milners' First-class Strong
Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe, List No. 4, at 209. per foot. The
public are deceived by comparisons being made between the
prices of the latter superb class of Milners' Safes and the inferior
articles offered by incompetent makers to booksellers, ironmon-
gers, brokers, or any others who will incur the serious responsibi-
lity of selling them, which are really worthless articles, and dear
at any price. What greater delusion than an unsafe Safe?

SOYER'S SAUCE SUCCULENTE.

SOYER'S AROMATIC MUSTARD.

The world-wide renown obtained by the above esteemed Condi•
ments, having fostered the production of several imitations in
which the Jars and Labels are most accurately copied (but not
so the contents), M. SOYER deems it his duty to caution the
public in every instance to carefully examine the labels before
purchasing. The genuine articles are sold wholesale by Messrs.
CROSSE and BLACKWELL, 2i, Soho-square, and Families may
be certain of obtaining them by ordering of their Grocer or
Italian Warehouseman. _ _

---1417ioViaTiiiii0udto say the Lancet, in its recent sanitary
analysation of articles of food, gave a highly favourable report of
his Sauces, which are prepared from thoroughly wholesome in-
gredients. The Sauce Succulente is of two kinds, but both alike
in character, and of equal excellence. One made expressly for
ladies is very mild, and the other for gentlemen is of a much
warmer flavour.

Of SOMA'S RELISH the Observer says:—" M. Soyer is a culi-
nary artist as profound as he is versatile, nothing comes amiss to
him. No foreign cuisinier ever tickled the Saxon palate so suc-
cessfully. He is a great man, and the ill cooked mutton chops
that lost Napoleon the battle of Leipsic would have produced a
very different effect if Soyer had dished them up from his Magic
Stove,' and rendered them thoroughly light and digestible by his
appetising 'Relish."'
