kRTIFICIAL TEETH

)H. PARSONS, SURGEON DENTIST, 16, Parker-
• .street, corner of Clayton-square, (late 94,1301 d-street,)
wishes to call the attention of the Public to a ;Jew description
of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, possessing thiltwo important
qualities of being Incorruptible and an *fact Imitation of
Nature. Nothing but the strongest prejddice can hinder any
one, who has once worn these Teeth, from prefering them to
all others, both as regards appearanqe and economy.
J. H. P.'s system of stopping Teeth with pure Gold will be
found to stand the test of years, and be much preferable to
all cement fillings, which lever arrest the, progress of decay.
PARSONS'S TOOTH POWDER for preserving the
Teeth and Gums in a sound and healthy state, is sold at Is.
6d. a box, by RAWLE, Chemist. Church-street; TITHER.

Messrs. SNOWDON and BROWN LOW.
AT a period like the present, when about Ten Thousand
Chests of Spurious Leaves, in imitation of Tea, brought
from Bombay and Sincapore, and about Four Thousand Bags
of Tea that was wrecked off the Sherries, in the vessel Mary
Elizabeth, but picked up from the wreck, brought to this
town, washed and kiln-dried, and now in the hands of those
Tea Dealers and Grocers who profess to supply the inhabi-
tants with Genuine Teas, nothing can be more desirable than
an opportunity being afforded to Families and Respectable
Dealers of

PURCHASING THEIR TEAS DIRECT FROM THE

IMPORTER

The PROPRIETORS Of the NEW TEA ESTABLISHMENT,
feeling the importance of this truism, as affecting the inter-
ests of large classes of the community, and knowing that
since the Abolition of the East India Company's Charter in
1829,

TEA HAS BEEN IMPORTED INTO LIVERPOOL
IN LARGER QUANTITIES than to any other PORT
IN THE KINGDOM (London Excepted),
without a corresponding advantage to the Consumer, an
inducement has been held out to open the present Establish-
ment, the Proprietors having the fullest confidence that the
Patronage of a discerning Public will not be withheld to
enable them to carry out their views, when endeavouring
TO REFORM THE ABUSES IN THE TEA TRADE,
it being their anxious wish and strong determination that
ECONOMY SHALL BE COMBINED WITH LUXURY
in Supplying the
INHABITANTS OF LIVERPOOL AND LANCA-

SHIRE WITH " REAL" TEA.
LIVERPOOL,

the second Port in the world, from its advantages of
A DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITH CHINA.
and the facilities it affords as a market for purchasing stock,
it is natural to infer would have hitherto furnished Teas to
the public at something like a reasonable profit, or at any
rate at a less price than towns more remote from the place
of debarcation. Such, however, not being the fact, the ob-
ject of this establishment is to supply the public with an
article which forms amt essential item in the expenses of
almost every family, onV-1

The Proprietors of the Establishment being intimately
connected with one of the first Houses in London, they will
be enabled to take advantage of that market as circumstances
may require.
CAUTIONING THE PUBLIC AGAINST THE SPU-
RIOUS MIXTURE OF DRIED LEAVES,
which has lately been imported in large quantities, and has
found its way into the hands of COUNTRY DEALERS,
we beg to inform them our whole time and attention will be
devoted to the selection of the two articles Tea and Coffee ;
the inferior, and in many instances deleterious, mixtures
brought to this country since the abolition of the East
India Company's Charter, rendering it highly necessary that
all persons engaged in the sale of it should be well experi-
enced in the tasting and examining of them.
THE OVERLAND INDIA MAIL '
arrived in London on the 4th ultimo, bringing news from
China up to May 19th date ; and on reading the private
letters, we find that Captain Elliot had effected a truce with
the Chinese commissioner, thereby enabling our merchants
to get about eleven millions of pounds of Tea (equal to three
months' supply for this country) shipped, which has caused
quite a panic in London Tea market, attended with a fall of
about one shilling per pound on all sorts, within the last
three weeks, thus making them as low in price as those now
on their way to this country cost the merchants importing ;
for we find the lowest quality of Congou sold in Canton, at
25 to 27 taels, equal to about ls. sd. of our money. to which
must be added at least sd. per lb. for the expenses of ship-
ping them to England—together making a cost of ls. led.
per lb. for the lowest Congou to the importers. Still we find,
that at the London Public Tea Sale of the ith ultimo, (at
which the most of our stock has been purchased.) Congou
characterised by the Tea brokers—good middling Tea,
blackish leaf, and strong, (which is at least 6d. per lb. better
than the lowest quality,) sold at Is. 11:1(1, to id. per lb. ; and

very fine qualities

add the duty, 2s. 24d..per lb., which shows that a really
useful family Tea costs us in London 4s. 21d. per lb. and
quality as fine as it is our intention to advise any family to
use, 4s. 7d. Having been fortunate enough to lay in our
stock during the present extraordinary fall in prices, war-
rants us in saying we can offer an advantage to the public
which no other house in the trade can, for it is a well known
fact, that (prior to the last news from China,) nearly every
person connected with the Tea trade, and even private
speculators believing the Emperor of China had ordered all
the Tea in his dominions to be destroyed, bought to a very
great extent, at prices one shilling per pound above what
they are at present.
In professing to have this great benefit to offer, we do not
boast of any foresight or wonderful advantages over our
fellow-traders, it arising merely from our arrangements not
being so complete as to enable us to lay in our stock earlier
than the Ist ult. At the same time we do not feel too con-
fident that the present very low prices will continue long, as
most of the merchants refuse to submit to so alarming a
sacrifice, and we also find by the private India letters, that
although Captain Elliot bad effected this truce it was liable
to be cancelled by an edict from the Emperor any minute,—
in fact our merchants quite expected such would be the case,
as vast troops of Chinese soldiers was encamping near Can-
ton,—so that the next advices may inform us of an entire
stoppage of the British trade;—therefore it is our duty to
advise all families, and large consumers, to purchase freely at
the present prices, they being as low (of good qualities) as
-ving this advice we wish the public
for their benefit, as the system we
lishment is to to charge a profit

was ever known, and in
to bear in mind it is soh
shall introduce into our

of 3d. per lb., so that should the next news from China cause
an advance in the value we shall make a corresponding one.
We before stated that useful family Congou cost us (duty
paid) in London 4s. 2d. per lb., and really fine qualities
4s. 71d. per lb., add Id. per lb. for the carriage here, thus
making the costs -Is. 31d. and 4s. 84d., which enables us to
offer them at prices lower than has been quoted for many
