WHOLESALE PAPER DEALER 6;• STATIONER,
No. 2, STRAND-STREET, LIVERPOOL,

TAE-PEACE
AND

PING—PLENTY.
IT is with the above appropriate characters--. the English
signification of which is " Peace and Plenty," that CAPT.
PIDDING'S Chinese correspondent heads his last commu-
nication from Fo-kein. " Heaven," he adds, " approving,
has rained down blessings on the Central Nation. In the
same Season, Peace is proclaimed, and Plenty crowns the
Land. Since the year 4448," (A. D. 1811,) " when the
Earth was revivified by the broom-tailed Star," (comet,)
vegetation has not been so luxuriant as now. The air, redo-
lent of perfume from the fragrant tea-blossoms, manifests its
tine quality ; whilst the plentiful picking shows how abundant
is the precious leaf. Thus has nature conspired with the
gods to make man happy."
The new Season's crop of CAPT. PIDDING'S TEAS,
just received, realises all that he anticipated from the above
communication. Their quality is most assuredly the finest
he has known. Their abundance—with a remission of duties
in prospect—has determined him at once to reduce the price
below what they have ever before been charged.
CAPTAIN PIDDING'S MIXED BLACK TEA is ac-
cordingly REDUCED from Bs. Gd. the Catty Package to
6s. the Pound Package. His SMALL LEAF GUNPOW-
DER is REDUCED from Twelve Shillings the Catty
Package to Bs. Gd. the Pound Package.
The Signature of the Sole Importer, " CaptainßHODES PIDDING " Hon. Company's Service, Fellow .

Bot. Society, &c.,is on every Genuine Package.
