The principle of this Company is that of attaching all
Importers and Exporters, by a Division of the Profits among
them, after payinent of the Dividends, thus creating a com-
munity of Interests between the Shippers and Shareholders,
a principle which will best guarantee to its Proprietors. a
certainty of their Dividends, and to Shippers of all descrip-
tions of Goods and Live Stock the having a well-supported
Establishment of first-class Steamers, and the lowest rate of
freight compatible with due attention to their maintenance.

CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS. ,--,"
riIHE accounts lately received from Macao, brought intelli-
-IL genre of the English having been totally expelled from
China, and that hostilities had actually commenced between
Her Majesty's forces, directed by her Superintendent in
person, and Chinese men of war; in other words, China is
at war with England. And the questions upon which the
two countries are now at issue bein„; of such difficult adjust-
ment as to render it almost impossible, and certainly impro-.
bable, that any more teas can he obtained fro China for a
very considerable period, a great rise in a
escriptions of
that article has taken place. Since June P , common black
4vf
teas have risen Is. 9i1., and fine green, 3s. per lb. Fine Hyson, with duty, fetched at the late public sales, 9s. 7d. per
lb. ; fine black teas as high as Gs. 7d., whilst up to this mo-
ment, Captain Pidding has continued to allow his teas to be
sold without any advance whatever. The late great rise,
however, having caused a run upon his teas by the trade, who
found that they could purchase them cheaper retail than
they could buy inferior teas wholesale, he is compelled to
raise the price, to prevent his remaining stk being purchased
by tea dealers. For the present, Captain Pidding s How-
QUA'S MIXTURE will be sold at the rate of Gs. 9d. per lb.,
being 9s. the catty, or an advance of only 9d. per lb., when
the commonest teas, since June, have advanced Is. 9d. per lb.
HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER will he sold, for the
Present, at 9s. 9d. per lb., when even Hyson, an inferior tea,
is fetching, wholesale, 9s. 7d. per lb. Half and quarter
catties in like proportions.
Captain Pidding thinks it right to inform the public that
his Chinese correspondent states confidently, that there is no
probability of the trade opening with that country, for, at the
least, twelve months ; and as the entire stock of consumable
tea in Great Britain will be exhausted before that period,
there is little doubt but tea will advance daily.
These Teas consist of Captain Pidding's HOWQUA'S
MIXTURE, of 40 rare Black Teas, and HOWQUA'S
SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER,in Chinese Catty Packages.
N.B.—The signature of " Captain JOHN ItHODE, Pin-
DING" is upon every genuine package.

THE above, and 208 other Medical Gentlemen, have given
the most flattering certificates of the great value and
superiority of WOO DHOUSE'S iETHERE AL ESSENCE

and Nervous consti-
tutions. It is certain in affording instant relief in Cholera
:Nimbus, Spasms, Cramps, Flatulence, Hysterics, Heartburn,
Hiccup, Loss of Appetite, Sensation of Fulness, Pain and
Oppression after Meals • also those Pains of the Stomach
and Bowels which arise from Gouty Platulences ; Digestion
however much impaired, is restored to its pristine state by
the use of this Essence for a short time.—ln Bottles, 2s. Gd.,
4s. Gd., 10s. 6d., and 21s. each.

BALSAM OF SPERMACETI.

most affections of the Chest and Lungs, relieved in
ten minutes, by taking one dose of WOODHOUSE'S BALSAM
OF SPERMACETI, OR PECTORAL COUG/1 DROPS. Per-
sons doubting the efficacy of this Medicine, may take a
dose in the proprietor's shop before they purchase. The
Proprietor earnestly recommends a trial of these Drops to
persons afflicted with the above complaints, but he does not
introduce them as being an infallible cure (as many do) but
is warranted in asserting their efficacy from the extensive
relief afforded in numerous cases of the above description.
Constitutional Coughs of three, four, and more years stand-
ing, have been cured in the course of a week by the use of
these Drops. In the Ilooping and Chineoughs it will be
found equally valuable; it will at all times relieve the most
violent Consumptive Cough—ln Bottles, Is. lid., 2s. 9d.,
4s. 6d., and 10s. 6d. each.
