Copy of a Letter.

39, Kirby-street, Hatton-garden, Dec. 26, 1842.
Sir,—l was from my childhood afflicted with dimness of sight,
and as I advanced in years became almost blind. My husband
being a medical practitioner, every oculist of any eminence was
consulted, but unfortunately without any seal relief. I was re-
commended by one of my friends, although a member of the
profession, who said he had taken it for a few months with the
happiest result : he being relieved from inflammation after long
suffering, induced me to give it a trial. I have taken four 2s 4d
canisters, and shall continue to use it to the end of my days, for
I have derived so much benefit from using it, that I can now
read without the assistance of any kind of eye glasses. I shall
feel happy at any time to acknowledge the great cure your Eye
Snuff has made in my case. Make what use you may please of
this testimony, and remember, I am in my seventieth year, and
can read and no needlework much better than I could for the
last forty years, without any glasses.
I am, Sir, yours gratefully,
0. FOTUEROILL,
Widow of the late Dr. Fothergill.

AS SUPPLIED TO TEIE ROYAL TABLE.
IAPTAIN PIDDING'S HOWQUA'S MIXTURE
lJ TEA is an admixture of 40 rare Black Teas, produced
on as many different plantations, each Tea differing from
the rest, and possessing a flavour, a fragrance, or strength,
peculiar to itself. Blended together in the proper pro-
portions, they comprise all that is desirable in Tea. This
discovery was not the effect of chance, but of many great
advantages united in one individual, and the result of
numerous experiments and the most minute analysis.
For another to produce the same result, he must possess
equal skill, the same discriminating taste, equal power of
procuring the forty various Teas required, and know the
exact proportions of each kind used—and though he may
never once have visited China, he must have had equal
opportunities of securing to himself, its productions :
with one who, like Captain Pidding, has spent years there
in acquiring these advantages, and to whom alone How-
qua—years before his death—imparted at Canton, the
secret of compounding his Mixture.
Yet there are upwards of 500 retailers pretending to sell
tea, they call " Howquars Mixture"—each mixture dif-
fering from all the others. Now as there can be but ONE
REAL " Ilowqua's Mixture," it follows that, as 500 dif-
ferent medleys are offered-499 must be spurious. The
499 counterfeits are so many evidences of the superiority
of the ONE GENUINE. And it would be absurd to suppose
that Captain Pidding, with advantages, the result of Eight
Voyages made to China, and five years spent in that
country, would be so silly—even were it possible—as to
yield them up to 500 others, or impart to them so valuable
a secret.

The very great celebrity this Tea has acquired, having
tempted many unprincipled persons to give similar, or
nearly similar titles to their own spurious mixtures, to
guard against such imposition, purchasers should observe
that " THE SIGNATURE THUS,"
Captain JOHN RHODES PIDDING,
Honourable Company's Service,
is on every genuine Package.
To those who drink Green Tea, " Captain Pidding's
Howqua's Small Leaf Gunpowder," grown only on one
estate, is recommended for its strength and economy, and
as being the purest and most wholesome Green Tea im-
ported from China.
Captain Pidding has appointed the under Agents for
