AS SUPPLIED TO THE ROYAL TABLE.
lIOWQUA'S MIXTURE of 40 rare Black TEAS, and
HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER, in
Chinese Catty Packages.
The Sole Proprietor of the above celebrated Teas, is Capt.
JOHN RHODES PIDDING, (late Commander of the Hon.
Company's ship Thames, of 1400 tons.)
Captain Pidding having made EIGHT VOYAGES to CHINA,
embraced the opportunity, when at Canton, of securing to
himself the exclusive importation of these Teas; and he sup-
plies them to the Public, through ONE Agent in each town.
GEORGE CARLYLE, Repository, 86, Bold-street,
SOLE AGENT for LIVERPOOL.
In an action brought by Capt. Pidding, against a person
who counterfeited his title and packages, It was proved before
the Vice-Chancellor, on the affidavit of Mr. William Styan,
an eminent Broker, of 27 years' experience, employed to test
the merits of these Teas,
"That Captain Pidding's HOWQUA'S MIXTURE' is a tea
of a peculiar flavor, and composed of many varieties of black
teas, all of the finest quality; that it has a character peculiar
itself —A FINE NATURAL AROMA. And
"That HOWQUAIS SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER' is Gun-
powder Tea of the very finest quality, and that such tea
could not be bought in the market.
"W. Styan 1" Sworn at the Public Office, Chancery-lane,
this Bth (lay of May, 1837, before me,
" Filed Bth of May, 1837." " N. W. SENIOR.
It was also proved on oath, that Captain Pidding's Teas
were supplied for the Royal Use.
Dr. Johnson, late physician to Geo. IV., considers this the
best of Teas, and uses no other. As Author of "The Eco-
nomy of Health," &c., his testimony is invaluable: he writes
thus:— 4' Nov. 22, 1837.
" SlR,—Ever since your Howqua's Mixture' Tea was
first introduced, myself and family. have used it, indeed only
it, and we have no hesitation in giving it the preference to
all others. " Yours, &c.
"To Capt. Pidding." " JAMES JOHNSON, M.D.
Its superior excellence is further proved, by G. Sigmond,
M.D., F.L S., &c., who, in a lecture on tea, delivered on
the 14th of November, before the Medico-Botanical Society,
stated—" The Hong Merchants used not generally to deliver
for exportation their finest sorts of teas. It was proved by
the fact that since the opening of the trade new vasieties
had been brought to England, and, in particular, a tea under
the name of the richest and the most esteemed of the Hong
Merchants, which •had been very much and very deservedly
prized, and the 11 ovrqua's Mixture' has now become
"A STANDARD TEA. IN THIS COUNTRY."
It is impossible to furnish snore conclusive proof of its su-
periority. The term "standard" comprehends every good
• quality.
• These Teas consist of "HOWQUA'S MIXTURE" (black
I tea), at 6s. per lb., or Bs. the catty package. 't HowQuA,s
SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER," at Bs. 7id. per lb., is Ils. 6d.
the catty package. Each package contains 1 lb. and one.

third nett of tea.
CAUTION !—The names of C. VERIIRY, 218, Regent-street,
and T. LITTLEJOHN, 77, King William-street, City, Sole
Agents for London, are upon every genuine catty. All
others are spurious.

PROFESSOR SWEDOUR'S HYGEIAN HERB
PILLS, for the effectual extirpation of every species
and symptom of the SYPHILITIC DISEASE, and the
disorders arising from improper treatment.
Prepared and sold by the sole Proprietor, at
No. 42, SEEL-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
In boxes at 2s. 9d. and -Is. 6d. each.
Warranted not to contain COPAIBA, CUB EBS, or any
deleterious ingredient.
*** With each Box is given a Treatise on Venereal
and Syphilitic Diseases, with observations on seminal weak-
ness &c. &c., containing hints worth knowing by those who
are, or have been sufferers to this dreadful and devastating
malady.
Dr. 'DAVI ESON continues to direct his attention to those
disorders arising from the too free and indiscriminate in-
dulgence of the passions, which not only occasion a numer-
ous train of nervous affections, but also entails on its votaries
all the enervating imbecilities of old age. In that distressing
state of debility and deficiency, whether the consequence of
baneful habits, excessive drinking, or any other cause by
which the powers of the constitution become enfeebled, he
offers a arm, safe, and speedy restoration to sound and vigor-
ous health.
It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to the
venereal disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men,
who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin the con-
stitution. When the great Doctor Swedour becarrie Pro-
fessor at Leyden University, he conferred an invaluable be-
nefit upon mankind by the discovery of his grand Panacea,
for the cure of this deplorable complaint. Never did a dis-
covery excite a greater sensation, it was sought after with
avidity, and used with undeviating success in the most
minute and intricate cases of the delicate complaint, for the
cure of which they have been so long celebrated. The fame
of these Pills throughout Germany, caused their speedy in-
troduction into almost every country. The certantv with
which they were continually administered can be attested by
many thousands. In fact, during the long contincatal war
they were the inseparable companion and safeguard of the
soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infection
was entertained. What medicine can be more appropriate
than that which has given such general satisfaction ? The
Hygeian Herb Pills root out every particle of insidious poison,
purifying in their progress the whole mass of fluids. They
not only remove the disease, but renovate bY. their action
the different functions of the body expelling the grosser hu-
mours, and in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to
convince the most sceptical of their astonishing and un-
equalled powers. They neither contain mercury nor any other
mineral, and may be taken without the slightest suspicion
of discovery—they require no restraint of diet, loss of time,
or hindrance of business, but effect a complete cure, without
the least exposure to the patient. At any period when the
slightest suspicion mar exist, it will be well to have recourse
to the Hygeian Herb Pills, for when taken before the disease
has made its appearance it acts as a certain preventive, by
moving the complaint effectually and secretly. The deplor-
able state in which many persons have been when visiting
the proprietor, from the use of mercury, renders it impera-
lively necessary to caution the public against that dangerous
mineral when injudiciously administered.
These Pills should form a portion of all Medicine Chests,
by sea and land, and opght never to be omitted by any person
going a long voyage or journey, their properties are such
that neither heat nor cold will injure u,eir quality, or pre-
vent the due effects on the constitution.
Dr. Davieson will attend daily at his residence, from Eig)it
in the morning until Ten at night, (on Sundays from Nina
till Two,) where he gives advice to all applicants taking any
ofhis preparations, WITHOUT A FEE.
Letters (post-paid) enclosing a remittance, answered by
return, and Medicines punctually transmitted to any ad-
dress either by initials or name.

DUTY ON ESTATE SALES.—It was recently mentioned in
the Cdurt of Excise that the government had it in contempla-
tion' to repeal the duty on estate sales, it being a great ob-
•truction to the disposal of property, and their being no doubt
t ha.t the increased consumption of agreement and other stamps,
the increase of public advertisements in the newspapers, Brc.,
would afford ti fell PPPpeesAtIOR to the rpvepge.— Times.
