extensive, in consequence of restrictions imposed by the Dutch

quantity of coffee imported from this island is
comparatively limited, hut the quality of it is useful and good.

high estimation, the best qualities of it possessing a fullness and

The article of coffee has for some years past attracted the atten-
ben
Gots both of the late and present Governments, their object being
a 0
'Mr by introducing it at a cheaper rate.
Mr. f efit the
.abouchere, the President
of the Board of Trade in the late
Cleeernot. devoted considerable time in endeavouring to alter
the aooroalous laws which existed in regard to coffee, but strong
4131/°'hifanteresta at that period prevented him from carrying his
intentions into effect.
Sir Robert peel, with great determination, notwithstanding the
POWCrInl interests arrayed against him, at once reduced (in his
eelebrated Tariff) the duty on foreign offees from Is. 3d. to Bd.
per lb., and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in his financial state-
ment during tne present session, announced a further reduction to
ed.
,spear Ih., saying_.... It is most important to extend the use of a
r which is a great luxury to all classes, and which in ad. ditiooage
, is found to supersede other beverages detrimental to, health.
As the honour of being the first to afford the public the full be-
nefit of these philanthropic measures has fallen upon ourselves, we
confidently call upon her Majesty's Ministers, Noblemen, States-
men, and all who desire to see the liberal intentions of Government
carried out, and who wish to enjoy, in its greatest purity, so nutri-
&ions a beverage ars_coffee, to confer on us their valuable support.
