IN placing this address before the Public, I beg
respectfully to call attention to the established rule of my
commercial transactions,namely : _ _ _ _

to Purchase for READY MONEY, at the
best and cheapest market.
Secondly—Selling on similar terms of PROMPT PAYMENT
for all Goods, on or before delivery.
Thirdly—Charging the LEAST PROFIT upon the Goods, and
Marking them in Plain English.
Fourthly—Giving every advantage for MONEY that any rea-
sonable man can look for.

It is a recognised principle of Trade that the fewer hands
through which any article is made to pass so much the better
it is for the consumer, because the article can be brought into
general use with the least burden of Profits.
ECONOMY AND CONVENIENCE
should be combined; and, under these circumstances, and at
the request of numerous Purchasers who have frequently
BOUGHT AND APPRECIATED MY MATERIALS, but
have found great difficulty in getting them made to their satis-
faction, I am induced to add the TAILORING, whereby the
difficulty will be removed, and a very considerable Saving rea-
lized by GENTLEMEN PURCHASING their OWN CLOTH.
HAVING JUST ENGAGED A FIRST-RATE CUTTER TO
SUPERINTEND THE TAILORING DEPARTMENT. should
any Article not Fit satisfactorily when Finished, it shall be Re-
placed by another, to the entire satisfaction of the Customer,
or the Money Paid will be Returned.

While J. RICHMOND is equally anxious TO SUPPLY THE
MATERIALS ONLY, proper Lengths for any Garment being
easily ascertained AT HIS ESTABLISHMENT, he cannot
leave unnoticed the favourable opportunity thus offered of ob-
taining either CLOTH or the Material made up into Garments
of unsurpassed excellence and cheapness, the advantages of
which must be obvious, and appreciated by all.
J. R. earnestly recommends every Gentleman to purchase
his own Cloth, and respectfully solicits a trial of this system,
feeling assured it will secure to him their continued and con-
stant support.

DAKIN'S ROYAL PATENT COFFEE.
DAKIN and COMPANY have much pleasure in
announcing that they have appointed
MR. JOHN PRIESTLEY,
52, LORD-STREET,
SOLE AGENT FOR LIVERPOOL,

FOR THE SALE OF THEIR ROYAL PATENT COFFEE

In announcing this appointment, it will be important to
point (JUL LUG utid od-rctretosoo of I[l.ol/A-1-
PATENT COFFEE ; and for the purpose of doing so with bre-
vity, the following copy of a certificate of Mr. Alfred S. Taylor
and Mr. Arthur Aikin, the great authorities on Chemistry,
Medical Jurisprudence, and the Sanatory Question, may suffice :
"We hereby certify that we have chemically examined
four varieties of Coffee, namely, best Mocha, Jamaica, Very
Fine and Good Plantation (Ceylon) Coffee, both in the raw state
and as prepared and roasted by the Patent Process of Messrs.
Dakin. We have likewise chemically examined samples of the
same varieties of Coffee, roasted at the same time in the usual
way ; and the result of this examination is. that in delicacy
of flavour, odour, and as an artideof.diet, the Coffee prepared
by Messrs. Dakin's process is, in our judgment, superior to that
prepared in the ordinary way. .
" We have also examined the apparatus used by Messrs.
Dakin for roasting Coffee, and we find that all the surfaces with
which the Coffee comes in contact during this process are of
Silver. We find also that great care is taken so to regulate the
degree of heat and the mode of its application, as to render
necessary a longer time and lower temperature to effect the
roasting, whereby all risk of charring the berry, or producing
empyreumatic oil, is prevented, the separation of acid vapour
is more gradual and complete, and a larger portion of aroma is
retained than occurs in the usual methods of Coffee roasting.
"The process of Messrs. Dakin appears to us, therefore, in a
chemical view, better adapted than any yet suggested for pro-
curing roasted Coffee in a pure and wholesome form.

LIVERPOOL, 2nd 3farch,lB49.
ROYAL BANK BUILDING S.-
We announced, on the 22nd of January, the arrival of
some very promising " Chops" of the New Crop of Black Tea,
one of which—the KEE-HIND e—which we considered
decidedly superior in quality to other marks—we had then
purchased. THIS is now ready for delivery to Families; and
we are happy to inform our friends that the test of experience
has fully ratified the opinion which we prononnced on its me-
rits. It is acknowledged by connoisseurs to be of undeniable
excellence.

1 LWhere QUALITY has been made the primary consideration,
and PRICE is fixed upon strictly economical principles, we
feel confident that our own interests, as involved in the ques-
tion of PROFITS, will be secured by the increasing demand
which has been and must be the inevitable result of our sys-
tem, so obviously based on justice and prudence.
A large proportion—probably more than two-thirds—of the
First Class of Black Tea imported during the present season,
has proved to be very inferior in quality, though it is, at the
same time, deceptive in appearance. In consequence of this
fallacious resemblance to a choice commodity, many families
have, no doubt, experienced much disappointment and annoy-
ance, especially in cases where they have placed too great con-
fidence in parties possessing little, if any, sound judgment in
the selection of Tea—a department of trade which now requires
more than ordinary experience, care, and skill.

The gratifying amount of success which has attended our
efforts, and the recognised superiority of our Teas, have in-
duced many dealers (more ambitious than conscientious, and
with more of assurance than of right principle) to resort to
the expedient of soliciting Families in our names, but without
our authority, and, in some instances, to adopt the still more
delusive plan of opening shops in this and other towns, over

which ow Names have been ostentatiously paraded in'liirie
letters as baits to the Purchaser.

It is, however, a source of unfeigned satisfaction to us that,
notwithstanding all the schemes resorted to in order to mislead
the public, the support which has been accorded to us in this
New Branch of our Trade—the supply of Families—has been
steadily increasing during the last nine years. This fact, while
it calls for our grateful acknowledgments, affords a satisfactory
proof that the Public can readily discriminate between the
false professions which are too often employed to push the sale
an article, and that conscientious care which looks to a per-

with mutual advantage.

It is, therefore, only requisite for us to remark that our place
of business is in the ROYAL BANK BUILDINGS, near the Ex-
CHANGE. LIVERPOOL.

The principles upon which our business has hitherto been
conducted having operated successfully in protecting the inte-
rest of the public, we again refer to those principles, as the
basis upon which our system of business will continue to be
carried out in future. It will be found that we steadily adhere
to the following important maxims :
First,—To afford to Families CONSIDERABLE ADVANTAGES

Secondly,—Never to permit our young men to press the sale,
or recommend the quality, of any article not actually inquired
for; but to let every sample of our goods rest for support upon
its own intrinsic merits.

The adoption of these rules has received the stamp of public
approbation. Our persevering observance of them will prove
the surest guarantee that we can offer of our sincere desire to
merit the unprecedented amount of support with which we
have been favoured.

As complaints have been made of the inconvenience frequently
experienced by Families, in consequence of having to wait in
giving their orders at our hitherto crowded Retail Counter, we
are happy to announce that we have made arrangements with
the Management of the Royal Bank, by which we shall obtain
considerable addition to our front premises, with the advantage
of an entrance direct from Dale-street. The necessary altera-
tions are now in progress, and we hope to open these premises
in a few weeks, with many increased facilities for the transac-
tion of our business.
Families residing in the country may now avail themselves
of the LOW RATES OF CHARGE UPON THE CARRIAGE OF PAR-
CELS BY RAILWAY, and thus obtain their supplies without any
material additional expense. The charges are regulated by the
various Railway Compamea upon precisely proportionate scales,
according to weight and distance. The facilities thus afforded
by several lines which have been recently opened, will enable
us to supply parties in many localities, from which we have
been hitherto, to some extent, excluded, by the obstacles which
existed to prevent the prompt delivery of goods, and by the
heavy cost of transit.

It is necessary that we should state, that, whenever desired,
we pre-pay the carriage of parcels 'forwarded from our Esta-
blishment, including the charge in the invoice. Some parties,
with a view to attraction, indiscriminately offer to defray the
carriage. It is obviously impossible that such promises can
be carried into effect, without inflicting ultimate disappoint-
ment on the purchaser. Whilst we avoid such unsatisfactory
engagements, we take the better alternative of sending to all
parts of the' kingdom A SUPERIOR QUALITY OF TEA AT A•
PRICE which must tend to secure further transactions.
Attention is invited to the FINE BLACK TEA at 4/ and 4/4,
also Excellent Second Qualities at 3/ to 3/6, which can be well
recommended to the notice of all large Consumers.
