TO THE PUBLIC.

LIVERPOOL, that in the early part of the eighteenth
centtry, was an inconsiderable place, scarcely num-
bering six thousand inhabitants, has„ rapidly arisen,
through its great natural mariti with the
talent and enterprise of its chants, to be the

"SECOND CO)HeiRCIAL PORT OF THE

EMPIRE,

with the present amazingly-increasing population of three
hundred thousand, and has been proudly and aptly termed

" THE SEA-HAVEN OF THE WORLD."

In its vastlrange of Docks, which, like the unfolding
limbs of some mighty giant, coniprise an extent, including
those in progress, of from four to five miles, may be seen
unfurled the flags of all nations, heralding the rich freight-
age of the various merchandise and treasures of the globe;
and, amid the multitudes that crowd its numerous quay,
and piers, may be encountered the human race, in all its
chief, marked, and varied aspects.

The importance and local influence which must accrue
to the district north of the Exchange, by the erection of
the New Docks, which grasp the sea-line almost to Bootle,

have induced

warded his exertions for the last nineteen years, to complete

CONFECTIONERS, CHEMISTS, STATIONERS,
‘..) TEA-DEALERS, and SI LK-MERCERS, desirous
of making a respectable addition to their income, may do
so by means of an AGENCY in the TEA TRADE ; a
most liberal allowance for the sale of h'at article being
made to respectable Agents, and but Ile trouble and no
expense incurred, as the Teas are pplied in ready-made
packages from a quarter of a p nd to the Chinese catty
size, and every cost of licens carriage, &c., defrayed by
the advertisers. The desir of the proprietors is to pro-
mote the interests of all rties becoming their Agents to
the utmost extent, an he rapid increase of their con-
nexion, owing to t general approval of the quality of
of their Teas, testifies to their success.
Repeated announcements in the best circulated local
newspapers, thereby keeping the address of their principal
Establishment as well as their numerous Agents constantly
before the public, is an additional advantage which the
persevering man of business will know bow to estimate.
