We must now draw your attention to the other branch of
our business, viz., Coffee, which we regret to say is as se-
riously adulterated as Tea, and, if possible, to a more alarm-
ing extent, which is easily shown by the fact that the con-
sumption of Chiccory has within the last three years increased
fully fifty fold; and about a twelvemonth since several retail
tea dealers and grocers were summoned by the excise officers
for having large quantities on their premises. Since which
(we suppose upon the same principle that duty was allowed
to be paid to government upon the four thousand chests of
tea that had deen wrecked, then brought to Liverpool,
washed, and dried on kilns) government has allowed the free
use of it upon payment of a small duty, therefore it is now
used with impunity • and the value of it, duty paid, not being
more than 5d per lb, offers too great a temptation for the
generality of dealers to resist it ; consequently, we advise
Families to purchase their Coffee in the berry, thereby en-
suring a genuine article, assuring them the small outlay of
buying a coffee-mill will soon be repaid. We shall roast
our Coffees twice a week, viz., Tuesdays and Fridays.
Our present prices (which, like our Teas, will vary as the
market value changes) are as follows :
COFFEES,
Whether ground or in the Berry, will be genuine.
