THE LIVERPOOL

CENTRAL TEA ESTABLISHMENT,
17, DALE-STREET,
(OPPOSITE THE ANGEL HOTEL.)
MULLINS AND CO., P
ROPRIETORS.

WE beg to announce to the Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its Vicinity that we have taken those most eli-
gible Premises, lately occupied by Messrs. Hom.ts and Co..
Tea Dealers, which we propose to OPEN ON SATURDAY,
OCTOBER 4TII, 1851, for the purpose of carrying on an EXTEN-
TIVE TEA AND COFFEE TRADE. We are... Wit strangers in
Liverpool,—having most successfully conducted a large TEA
TRADE in Toxteth-park, and also I ale-street, (corner of
Hatton-garden,) for the last Fo ears, where we have, by a
strict attention to business, ured more than an ordinary
share of public patronage.
We have been induc o place ourselves before the Inhabi-
tants of Liverpool ifs FIRST-CLASS TEA-DEALERS, being
satisfied that we are in a position to challenge competition—to
equal, and assuredly not to be surpassed by, any house in the
kingdom; we shall direct our untiring attention to secure for
the Public. Teas and Coffees of the choicest growths.

Tea, whether viewed as an article of necessary domestic ex-
penditure or luxury, its extensive and almost universal use in
this country places it in a preeminent position amongst the
articles of large consumption ; it becomes, therefore, a matter
of the first importance to obtain it in the highest state of per-
fection, with all its native fragrance, freshness, and purity.
Much, however, as the value of Tea depends on the original
quailLy, Llle Uellcacy of ito axatutc rcodcra it bis-hlr aueceptible
of injury, either from damp, exposure, or the influence of other
articles, which, if they do not destroy, are calculated materially
to deteriorate both its quality and flavour, whilst we shall above
all things carefully. attend to the quality of our Teas, avoiding
alike weak and insipid descriptions, as well as those which are
untrue and spurious.

Our List of Prices will recommend itself. We would, how-
ever, strongly impress on the Public that Price alone, unac-
companied by quality, is a mere deception, and the cheapness
of all Teas depends on the union of both.
In order to establish an extensive TEA and COFFEE TRADE,
we shall regulate our Profits on the Lowest Scale, consistent
with the requirements of Trade ; but to do this we must incur
no risk ; we shall, therefore, deal exclusively for—CAsx, so
that those who do pay will not have to pay for those who do not,
implicitly adopting the principle of consulting the interest of
the Public in order to promote our own.
