THE TEA ESTABLISHMENT,
8, LUDGATE-HILL, LONDON.

THE "GLORIOUS NEWS" from the East is
everywhere hailed with delight and gratitude. In con-
sequence of the highly important announcement of " Peace
with China," we take the earliest opportunity of making known
to the Public, that we have commenced selling all descriptions
of TEA much cheaper.

There is no longer any necessity for the public paying ex-
travagant prices, in order to secure good Teas. The mono-
poly of price, like all other monopolies, is found to be based on
injustice and selfishness. Every day's experience tends to
show that the first cost of the finest Teas in China does not
warrant the extraordinary prices paid in this country. The
business of the importer is becoming better understood, and
large prof. ts, with the intelligent tradesman, like prejudiced
feelings with the better informed part of the public, are now
generally giving way, and comparison in value made the test of
preference.
The following are Mr present Prices ,

DANKRUPTCY IN HIGH LIFE.—The Son
of a Noble Lord having speculated largely in the late
notorious mining affairs, has been declared a partner in the
large City House of 111‘Leod and Wright, of Bucklersbury,
Wholesale Warehousemen, whose stock has consequently been
seized and sold by a decision of the Court of Chancery.
BROOKS and CO., of the BOROUGH, were the first par-
ties called in on the occasion, and at once undertook the sale ;
the whole of the Goods are, in consequence, being removed to
their Warehouses in the Borough.
The amount of the Stock is 13,0001., the Drapery portion
of which is now ready, and will be sold at ruinous prices, with-
out reference to the cost, one of the Partners being present to
sanction any reduction that may be made.
