ROYAL BANK BUILDINGS,
LIVERPOOL, February 14, 1855.
(cracuLaa.)

The greet fluctuations in the price of Tea during the last two
years have caused much confusion among retail dealers, whilst
there have been loud complaints by families of the inferiority of
the quality. These complaints too frequently have their origin
in the indifference displayed in the selection. A striking testi-
mony to the contrary may be witnessed in our business, which
exhibits a large increase in the number of fatuities supplied, as
well as in the quantity disposed of, being greatly in excess of
any similar period during the last fifteen years.
The support which has been so liberally accorded to us affords
the most conclusive proof of the importance and value of con-
stancy—in the selection of suitable qualities—with an especial
view to the satisfaction of consumers.
Our inflexible regard to quality has been the gradual means
of opening to us a new feature of trade—foreign orders—from
English families residing abroad. Shippers of flue Teas will
find our stock to consist of suitable packages (in bond) for ex-
port, and the prices fixed upon a principle calculated to give
continued satisfaction, and with every possible security as to the
quality.
Notwithstanding the continuance of the rebellion in some dis-
tricts of the Chinese Empire. there is no sound apprehension of
a shortatipply 'if Tea. The imports this year will prove at least
equal to those of the last year—the present estimate being up-
wards of K 1,000,000 lbs.—a tolerable scope will, therefore, be
afforded for a constant and personal attention in the selection of
proper qualities.
Having already obtained, by many years' experience, a large
amount of distinguished patronage, families may rest assured of
our continued candour in recommending only such descriptions
as will please.—Your obliged and faithful servants,
ROBERT ROBERTS and COMPANY,
Tea and Coffee Salesmen, LIVERPOOL.
N.B.—Other remarks and the present List of Prices way be
had on application.
