RICHMOND'S WHOLESALE AND RETAIL
WOOLLEN WAREHOUSE,
No. 3, PARADISE-STREET,
TWO DOORS FROM CHURCH• STREMT.

RICHMOND, in callint, the attention of the Inha-
e, • bitants of Liverpool and its vicinity to the above
Establishment, begs to refer to his Address issued last
Autumn, in which he pledged himself to do a Woollen
Trade on a system never before attempted in 'his town—
namely, to supply every descripton of 'Woollen Goods
at a small per-centage on the manufacturers' prices, for
cash only; at the same time he promised to sell none but
gond Goods.
That he has fulfilled his promise, that he has redeemed
his pledge, and that his exertions have been duly appre-
ciated, the extensive patronage, accompanied by assu-
rances of satisfaction from his customers, sufficiently
testify.
J. R. has now the pleasure to announce that his WIN-
TER STOCK is ready for inspection, and will be found
well worthy the attention not only of the Retail but also
of every Wholesale Buyer who, doing business on J. R.'s
terms, wishes to save the expense of visiting the Yorkshire
or West of England Markets: That Woollen Goods are
higher, and that the Market is still arising one, there can
be no doubt, yet, in consequence of an early visit, and
making large pu'-chases for Cash, J. R. is in a position
to offer his New Stock at Old Prices, and in some in-
stances cheaper than at any former period. The Stock
consists of every variety of the newest designs in Veslings
and Trowserings, in every Material in which they can be
produced ; superfine Broad Cloths, in every shade of co-
lour ; also. an endless Stock of Waterproof Tweeds,
Beavers, Pilots, and other Materials for Over Garments,
Shooting Coats, Src. Special attention is directed to a
large and carefully-selected Stock of Wool Black Cloths.
Doeskins, and Cassimeres, an inspection of which will
prove to the Purchaser that high Prices are not necessary
for the Possession of a first-rate Article. In conclusion,
J. R. wishes to reiterate what he has before said, that he
is determined to render himself as celebrated for the good
quality of every Article as for the small profit for which
he sells it.

Every Article for BOOT AND SHORMAKERS.
TAILORS' TRIMMINGS, at Wholesale Prices.
*** An ASSISTANT WANTED ; also a respectable
Youth as an APPRENTICE.

COFFEE GROUND BY STEAM POWER,
AT THE TEA ESTABLISHMENT,
NO. 2, BOLD-STREET.
WE deem it incumbent on ourselves to address our
Customers and the Inhabitants of Liverpool gene-
rally, in consequence of some extraordinary statements
having appeared in the form of advertisements and pla-
cards respecting the prices of the finest Jamaica Coffee.
Two months since, when Government reduced the duty
on Foreign Coffee, we. publicly announced it, and MADE
THE REDUCTION. Since that period we have been as-
sailed by many in the trade (some directly and others in-
directly) charging us with quoting the finest Jamaica
Coffee at much higher prices than they can sell it. In our
lag circular we pointed out that the FINEST MOUNTAIN
JAMAICA COFFEE could not be sold under two shillings
per lb. We again repeat it; and further, we DEFY any
one in the trade to sell the CHOICEST DESCRIPTIONS
OF COFFEE at a lower price and obtain a fair remunera-
ting profit, unless adulterated with chicory, which we
know is almost universally adopted.
After mature deliberation we have decided that such
gross impositions shall be exposed, and we are determined
to put it down, or at least to bring it before the public in
such a manner, that if they buy it afterwards, they buy it
knowingly ; we have, therefore, had erected expressly A
POWERFUL STEAM-ENGINE, on a new principle, so that
Customers may see their COFFEE GROUND as they pur-
chase it, and we wish to impress THE FACT upon the
mind of both Rich and Poor, that unless they adhere to
this principle, or buy it in the berry, that nine times out
of ten they will buy one-fourth chicory, or some other
stuff mixed with it, which easily accounts for many persons
quoting their best Coffee at ls. 10d. per lb., and some
even quote the finest Jamnic:r, at Is. Bd. per lb. This
latter class, although important in regard to their num-
bers, are perfectly insignificant in point of respectability.
We have dwelt thus particularly on the article of Coffee
for three plain reasons:—
First,—The immense quantity of Coffee that is con-
sumed in this town justifies us in giving our principles
publicity.
Secondly,—The vast quantity of Chicory that is used
and sold as Coffee, finds its way into the coffee-pots of all,
more particularly of the working classes, as they have not
generally the convenience for grinding.
Third/y,—We unflinchingly pledge ourselves to sell
none but pure Coffee, and repeat, we defy those who quote
the finest kinds of Jamaica Coffee at ls. Bd. and Is. 10d.
per lb. to sell it without adulteration of some kind or
other.

Having poin►ed out the foregoing facts, we think it un-
necessary to make further remarks, as we have exposed
the gigantic evil, and have placed you in a position to
protect yourselves.
It may be well here to remind you that when establish-
ing ourselves in this town, as Tea and Coffee Dealers, we
stated " when any change took place for the benefit of
consumers we should give it publicity." This, we cousi- '
der, is a change well worthy the attention of every Coffee-
drinker.

OUR PRICES ARE FORI is. 6d. per lb.,
REALLY FINE FOREIGN suitahle for Schools and
COFFEE
Common Jamaica, Broken Berry, ls. per lb. ;—a useful
description at is. 2d. to Is. 4d. per lb. ;—a fine Jamaica
Coffee, at ls. Bd. per lb., much recommended ;—also a
recherche sample of Mountain Jamaica, at 2s. per lb.
Having drawn your attention minutely to the Coffee
Trade, we do not wish it to be thought that the TEA
TRADE occupies a less important feature in our estima.
tion than it has hitherto done ; on the contrary, we have
the same determination of purpose in dealing out this
article as Coffee. No doubt can now exist that we have
established an EXTENSIVE FAMILY TEA TRADE, by ex-
ercising spirited enterprise, careful judgment, and honesty
of purpose; beyond all these our best interest is consulted
by SELLING GOOD TEAS, at a small profit, for READY
MONEY. This we shall do at the following prices

Good Congou Tea, 3s. O. to 3s. Bd. per lb. for com-
mon use;—FINE STRONG CONGOU, 4s. fit for household
purposes ;—THE FINEST CONGOU IMPORTED, 4s. 6d. per
lb., much recommended;—CHOlCE SOUCHONG, ss. per lb.

From our commencement we have aspired to a high
position, having obtained it, we are resolved to use every
means in our power to maintain that confidence which has
existed throughout our career between ourselves and sup-
porters.
In conclusion we invite "a careful comparison," and if
others can sell better articles, at a less price, on fair and
honourable terms, we willingly resign the trade to them,
as we admire competition when conducted on liberal
principles.
We are your obedient Servants,
