LIVERPOOL, August 4, 1855.

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 enabled to call the attention of
Families to the article which can now be furnished at
3/4 per lb.
Although the Duty upon Tea was raised 3d. per lb. in the month
of April this year—still, in consequence of 'a large Stock 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 unusually favourable terms.

The EFFECTS OF SPECULATION IN TEA HAVE BEEN LATELY
NO LESS CONSPICUOUS THAN DISASTROUS:—Notwithstanding
the clearest practical evidence, which has been furnished season
after season, that England, as well as every other country, can
be abundantly supplied with Tea from China, of every quality
lotion has continued as rife as ever, until arrested this year by
ruinous losses.—This foolish propensity having beer:laid prostrate
by the dire consequences which it has brought upon itself, we may
now for some time anticipate 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 continued inflexible adherence to quality is
calculated to secure.

We remain,

Your obliged and faithful Servants,
ROBT. ROBERTS & COMP Y,

Tea and Coffee Salesmen.
