TIIE NEW TEA ESTABLISHMENT,
AND

COLONIAL COFFEE MART,
ST. ANNE-STREET, opposite Trinity Chui•ch.
IN addition to. our Principal Establishment we hoe opened
a new branch at this place, where you may be supplied
with the choicest TEAS that can be procured from the diffe-
rent markets, in the same manner as you hs, been supplied
'W in Dale-street. edo not deem it necessaif to trouble you
by entering into any lengthened detail of the superior merits
of our system of business. Your approval of this has already
been universally manifested. At the NEW BRANCH, in
St. Anne-street, our object will be, as in Dale-street, a very
enlarged Trade. In order to accomplish this, and in devia-
ting from the old system, still practised in the Tea Trade,
that of charging an enormous profit upon the article, as in
many instances eighteen pence to two shllings per pound, we
shall only add to the importers price a small remunerating
profit of three pence per pound ; and as this will appear to
you a very moderate charge, it will, however, on a large
amount, amply repay us ; for instead of getting through a
hundred pounds of tea every week, we shall no doubt be able
to dispose of a thousand. At this particular period, when our
relations with China are not placed on the firmest basis, too
much caution cannot be used in the purchase of every descrip-
tion of Teas, it being a well-known fact, that thousands of
chests find their way, through the medium of the Hong Mer-
chants, into this country, warranted as the purest and finest
Teas, which in reality are nothing else but SPURIOUS
LEAVES, dressed up and coloured to deceive the unwary.
None of these can be foisted upon us, twenty years of our
life having been devoted in selecting, tasting, and conducting
a firm, whose business has all along ruled in the Metropolis,
and is, at the present time, at the head of the Tea Trade in
London. • _
