The Bengal Hurkaru says that the Assam Tea
Company propose to send to England samples of the
indigenous and cultivated tea of Assam in a ra W
state. The leaves TO be packed rs taken from the
trees, after being dried, and the subsequent prepare
tons OF the tea Tor use to be LETT entirely to parties
at home, where il is thought there would be no dit
fcuty in preparing It for consumption The party
from whom our contemporary has derived his nor
nation, seems confident that the experiment viii
prove successful il acted upon; and among the ad
vantages that would follow its realization, the fore
most are-India wonld In short time be able tt
supply the demand of Great Britain tor tea--the lea
in lis raw state might be compressed into less bulk
! than at present, and, by the exclusion to much
greater extent of the atmospheric air, reach Eng
land with higher and rurer flavor. And further,
it is probabIe that the tea introduced into England
in its raw form for manufacture, would be exempted
from the duty imposed upon manufactured tea.
We trust that the trial may be made, and that the
success the attempt deserves may result.-Bom6ay
