Premises to carry this

you the following principles on which we solicit your so
port.

A total repudiation of the system of advertising characters
to Tea which the quality will not bear out, either leading the
public to the purchasing of low trash, under the impression
of procuring a good or fine Tea, or making an opening for
endeavouring to avoid the sale of these particular Teas, when
asked for, by urging the sale of others, at a higher price.
Among the various denominations of Tea, Congou is one
which, in its lowest sound quality, is always considered a
good useful Breakfast Tea, and which the great body of the
people are more desirous of obtaining than any other : this
Tea we recommend in every grade. Various other denomi-
nations of Tea are usually mixed with this ; such as Pon-
chong, &c.. which is generally advertised as Common Congou.
This article (it is not entitled to the name of Tea) is chiefly

brought from the jungles of Siam, and
quality as to be obtained at 6d. per lb.

ranges so low in

Entirely excluding this and such other fictitious Teas, we
shall confine ourselves to the sale of the produce of China
only, at the lowest rate of profit which light expenses and a
large sale will enable us to accomplish.
These are the fundamental principles on which we found

.
our claim to your support, being convinced that even at our
lowest prices you will feel satisfied you have obtained a sound
and genuine Tea, at a reduction ranging from Bd. to Is. 6d.
per lb. on the usual retail charges.

Subsequently, and before the malt was sold, Armitage and
Co. became bankrupts, being at the time indebted to the
crown nearly £7,000 for malt duties, not then due. The
Board of Excise having ascertained that Armitage and Co.
were insolvent, issued a writ of extent, and seized the whole
of their property, including the malt deposited in the hands
of Walmsley and Co. and Trueman, upon the " security" of
which they had accepted the drafts of Armitage and Co.
The question now in dispute was, whether the crown had
a right to effect such a seizure—they having had the malt re-
gularly consigned to them—and having accepted the bills
upon that distinct and specific security. The object of
Walmsley and Co. and Trueman, was to compel the crown
e proceeds of the malt to them, and call upon

Lord Abinger. in delivering the judgment of the court,
said, that it had been argued by counsel for the defendant,
that as the statute of the 3d and 4th Victoria, under which
the writ of extent had been issued, was not in force at the
time the goods were deposited with the defendant, they could
not be seized under the preceding statute of the 7th and Bth
of Geo. IV., which had been repealed by the statute of Vic-
The argument was a very ingenious one ; but it ap-
that, by a former statute of 27th of Geo. 111.,

A SOLDIER'S GRAVE.—A scene, not often witnessed in
Oswestry, took place on Tuesday. Private John Henderson
of the 73d Rerriment, with two comrades, halted in the town
on Friday night. on their return from Scotland. Henderson
had taken cold on the passage from Glasgow to Liverpool,
and was very ill. On Saturday morning, quite conscious of
approaching dissolution, he requested to see a minister. The
Rev. J. Jones, of Trinity, immediately attended him, and at
two o'clock be was a corpse, and his companions cn the
march. His remains were carried to the grave in military
parade, preceded by a fife and muffled drum, followed by a
coporal of the Guards, and a corporal and private of the 66th
Regiment, and twelve veteran pensioners, very respectably
dressed, and wearing hatbands. The procession was con-
ducted b y Mr. Smith, of the Police-office, formerly of the
Grenadier Guards,who was gratified in being enabled to bury
the poor fellow decently, by subscription, raised amongst a
few friends. It is a subject of bitter remark, that not one
comrade—no not a man—bearing even a button of the gallant
73d could be found in the mournful march, although a com-
pany of that regiment is now barracked within thirty miles of
Henderson's grave. An immense concourse of people at-
tended on the occasion, and many were the comments made
at the last scene of the strange soldier.— Shropshire Journal.

The plaintiff is a lnmper ; the defendant owner of the ship
Ada. The vessel sailed from this port in December last,
but was obliged to put back and be unloaded and discharged.
The action was brought to recover the amount (less £2 paid)
for loading and unloading, namely, £9 lls. 9d. Several
witnesses were called, who proved that the work had been
done, and the length of time which it had required. The de.
fendant urged that it was customary to pay lumpers by the
lump by contract, or so much per ton ; and called witnesses
Drove that 6d. per ton was sufficient for it. The defendant
Lad paid £2 oil account, and 6s. into court. The jury
returned a verdict for the plaintiff (reckoning the work at so
rnueb per ton) of £6 Gs. Bd. in all, leaving a balance of only
£1 Os. Bd. to be paid by the defendant.

IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO

From Mexico city the dates are to the 26th of December,
and from Vera Cruz to the 28th. Another revolution had
broken out and been accomplished in the capital, at the
head of which General Bravo, the provisional President,
placed himself with the troops. They had proceeded to shut
up the hall where the Congress held its sittings, and to dis-
solve that body by proclamation. The cause was the per-
sistance of the members in discussing and voting a federal
constitution against the known determination of Santa Anna,
who was resolved on a strong central government ; the only
sort of government, it may truly be averred, under which
Mexico is likely to prosper or remain united. Gen. Bravo
subsequently nominated sixty leading persons, whose opi-
nions were known and who could be depended upon, whom
he had constituted into an Assembly of Notables, and on
whom the charge of drawing up the sort of constitution de-
sired was devolved. The federal party, on their side, thus
deposed from functions, had issued a declaration in vindica-
tion of themselves and their measure. There the matter

ATTEMPTED ikTURDER.—NEWBURY, FEB. 7.—The whole
of the day this quiet little town has been thrown into a state
of the greatest excitement, in consequence of its becoming
generally known that a most determined attempt at murder
took place on Saturday evening, at the theatre of Mr. Oliver,
Bartholomew-street, Newbury. On inquiry it turned out,
that whilst Mr. H. Cuthbert, the leading actor in the com-
pany, was standing on the stage at the close of the perfor-
mances on Saturday evening, he heard a scream in the pit,
and, looking over the orchestra, saw Mr. Hall, the leader
of the band, stagger, and, placing his hand to his back, ex-
claim that he had been stabbed. Ile immediately jumped
Into the pit, where he saw Mrs. Hall lying on the floor be-
tween the seats bleeding profusely from a wound in her hand.
Imagining her husband had done it, he gave her in care of
some. one on the stage, and returned to the pit, where he
found Hall lying across one of the benches, bleeding copi-
ously from two frightful wounds, one in the back and ano-
ther in the shoulder. He was taken on the stage, where Mr.
Hooper, a surgeon of the town, was directly in attendance,
and dressed the wounds. The unfortunate man was then
removed to his lodgings in a very dangerous state. During
the time Mr. Hooper was in attendance on Mr. Hall, the
wretched woman was in all alarmingly outrageous state,
calling him " her dear George." Mr. Boone!
.then dressed
the wound in her hand, which was ouly superficial. She was
perfectly sober, and refused to give any account of the tran-
saction. On searching the pit, a large pigkrine covered with
blood was picked up near the spot. On subsequent inquiry
it was found she had borrowed it a short time previous of a
butcher in the neighbourhood. Jealousy has been assigned
as the cause for the rash attempt. The wretched woman
has been over since in a state bordering on insanity. She
was formerly Miss Rogers, daughter of a provincial actor,
and has been but lately married to Hull.
in Mr. Hooper sta-
ted, that had the wound been any lower the back, instant
death must have ensued.
