and their numerous Friends, that owing to the difficulties eXpe-
rienced by them in procuring (in this coun3ry) a regular supply
of
HOWQUA'S TEAS, equal in cmality to the first importations
of that celebrated house, they have been induced to open a di-
rect correspondence with its present representatives, and in
consequence are enabled to pickle themselves to their numerous
patrons and the public generally, that t eir Mixtures of How-
qua's Black Teas will comprise onl e very finest sorts con-
signed to Great Britain.
'The anxiety felt by C. Verret' Co. to secure a continuance
of the public prererence will do . tless prove a sufficient guaran-
iee for the quality of their- nsignments, and they have no
hesitation in stating that t it Teas will be found alike remark-
able for e--treme purity fragrant aroma, and extraordinary
strength of flavour.
In addition to th fixture of Howqua Teas above recom-
mended, C. Verre and Co. enjoy the exclusive privilege of
offering that very celebrated Tea, known as Howqua's Small-
leaf Gunpowder, which is only produced on the Estate of that
highly successful cultiiator and. Hong Merchant.
This Tea ha% elicited the unqualified approval of all connois-
seurs, and is, in fact, universally admitted to be the finest arti-
cle ever submitted to the British Public, and, on trial, will be
found decidedly more economical than the description of Teas
in --iresent use. _ _ _

C. Verrey and Co. have pleasure in adding that the whole of
their Teas are blended by themselves; and to prevent the pos-
sibility of any adulteration, as well as to secure to purchasers
