In opening new EMISES it is customary, at

indeed

the business tiEf be conducted, and it is our intention in tins,
our openingondress, to convey to you, that our claims for pa-
tronage and support are founded on totally different grounds
to others in the Tea Trade.
Known as we Are, and have been for nearly ten years, at

No. 2, Bo

and Co., we thi•ilt we need only state that, having Reesta-
blished ourselves, we intend to carry on a first-rate RETAIL
TEA TRADE, on the same principles as we formerly did.
Were we opening these Premises as entire strangers to the
Inhabitants of this densely populated Port, it might be neees-
.

CLAIMS UPON You, but as we have been only temporarily
absent, we deem it expedient Frew-to explain the cause of
our absence, and-Suconnix--to lay before you our pre.
sent views in opening these Premises.
In explaining the two points above alluded to, we have to
say de regards-ME FIRST-the reason of our obsence has
been owing to our having become guarantee for the payment
of a heavy amount, for a party whom we thought a friend
(whose name we shall not mention), but, alas t we found it to
the contrary.

ance to eurselvei, that our judgment has been testcd by the

nest ana most craleal Junes m the trade, therefore we feel
justified in stating our—invincible determination is to establish
one of the largest RETAIL TRADES out of London.
The question has been asked by many in the Trade

another Tea Establishment is wanted in Liverpool? Th 4
question, though asked in no friendly spirit, requises answer,
mg, which we shall do. and that to the purpose.
lst.—Because we know there is ample scope for Public

Competition, where there are between' 300,100 and
400,000 inhabitants, and the majority of those are not
reaping the advantages in price and quality which they
ought to do, considering the present prices of Tea.
2nd.—ltecause we know that a large trade is to be done
where energy, perseverance, and attention are com-
bined.
3rd.—Because we have greater experience and facilities in
the London Markets for purchasing at the best time
than any Retail House in Liverpool, owing to our being
intimately acquainted with the Leading Brokers in
London.

Another question has been asked by the cnrions,—why
Messrs. Flows AND CO. return to LIVERPOOL, when they
could not make it answer their purpose in former times ? Our
reply to this question is twofold—Pl asT—because we are in-
formed by several of our friends that they cannot get such
GOOD TEA as they did from us. SECOND-We are deter-
mined to show our Friends and the Inhabitants that, owing to
the misrepresentation circulated, as to our want of honour in
satisfying the claims of our former creditors—we now return
and herewith publicly state, that our whole and sore object is
combined in liquidating all our former liabilities in full, when
we have raised ourselves to that position we originally held in
this enterprising port.

The recent exposure that has taken place in the newspapers
of the manufacturing of Spurious Leaves to resemble Tea in
this town is visited with justice and will show the public that to
obtain TEA free from adulteration, it has now become impera-
tive on families, both rich and poor, to purchase the article at
a respectable TEA ESTABLISHMENT; and as a guarantee
to those who may favour us with their support, we pledge our-
selves to abstain from admitting into our stock Tea of a doubt-
precarious character, which will enable us to supply the
Ilioned sort of Tea.

An thinking minds who are engaged in commerce, are awar,
at without experience and competition, no business.—

art,-or science-c n progress-but then compeCtion is
great, then the energies and abilities of the parties become
developed, and a healthy action is produced,-without this
salutary influence, the Population of most large towns would
become like a pool of stagnant water, perfectly useless if not
positively injurious.

LIVE apaoL. (next to London,) unquestionably the largess
Port in the World, presents in no portion of its commerce sucl
scope for honourable competition as in the TEA TRA nR_

10 , %4\,-
cording to our judgment,) if we took around this VAST Po P
LATION we see an opening pointed out for a leading Tea Esta-
blishment, where Families can be supplied on the same terms
and with the same qualities as Messrs. Twiniags and Co.,
Messrs. Ridgway and Co., Messrs. Makin and Co., and other
leading houses in London, are in the habit of supplying the
Nubility with.

One remark more remains to be made respecting the system
on which we shall conduct our business; and to demonstrate
it clearly, we shall base our principle on precisely the sante
terms as we formerly did,-viz.-by buying in the BEST
MARKETS, selling for SMALL PROFITS, and thereby making a
quick return. You will here observe, particularly, that our
primary object is to deal out real good qualities both in Teas

and Coffers, and we respectfully solicit a "trial." The follow
ing are the prices at which we shall supply S-OU.
