TEA SALE.

Tire public sale of tea, by tender, as advertised, ez Florence Night-
inga'e, took place at Messrs. M'Clure and Co.'s saleroom, yesterday;
and it is reported that all the teas were sold at lair prices, although
below the London or Liverpool markets. We are glad to state that
our townsman, Mr. W. Cowan, was the purchaser of the first let
offered for sale; and Mr. Wi,liam Mullen, who, we have heard, was
the largest purchaser, bought the second. Mr. S. M'Cansland also
was a purchaser to a large extent, and several other wholesale houses
purchased considerably. The qn.ntity :old amounted altogether to
about 2,00 chests. We ob erved present many purchasers from the
country; who were drawn here by the sate, showing that a better
spirit than heretofore existed is now felt in favour of direct importa-
tions, and that greater encouragement will be given henceforward to
the efforts of the eAerprisirg firms who, in reality, confer many
advantages on the trade and the public by affording the opportunity
of purchasing a prime article here at cheaper rates than it could be
obtained elsewhere. The dulnecs apparent at the h:st sale, by tender,
was quite absent on this occasion, and the- sale was eharact!rised
throughout by spirited bidding. We believe that another cargo of
Messrs. I‘l`Clure's teas is about to be sent to another port; but it is
trusted that it may be offe:ed here, as from the feeling apparent
yesterday, little doubt can be entertained that it woAld meet with a
ready sale.— Belfast blercurY of e• dit, sday.

best fliers that can be made, removing all impurities, and, by their
recently improved deodorisers. actually removing all the colour, and
producing from the Rivington water a remarkably brilliant and clear,
sparkling beverage." We earnestly recommend our readers to an
