1t was an evil day for China when her
tea merchants began to tamper with the
quality of the commodity which has long
formed her principal article of export to
the Western world. The progressive de-
terioration in Chinese teas has encouraged
the production of that article elsewhere to
such an extent that India and Ceylon have
every year been growing more formidable
rivals of the Celestials; and If the con-
sumption of Assam and Ceylonese teas
goes on increasing in future as it has done
in late years the tea trade of China will
ere long be only of secondary Importance,
SO far as foreign tea drinkers are con-
cerned. In addition to the East Indies, a
new rival has appeared in the colony of
Natal, in South Africa. IL is only six or
seven years ago that an English settler
there planted few acres with tea. His
first crop, produced in 1881, amounted to
only 500 pounds weight. Last year the
production had SO increased that Natal
sent about 100, 0C0 pounds weight of tea to
market. The new industry is. in fact,
proving so profitable that it is fast spread
ing in the colony. and ere long we may
expect to find Natal teas competing with
those of India, Ceylon and China in the
London market. The tea trade of China
is, however, far from being yet irretrieva-
bly, ruined; but unless the native authori-
ties enforce with rigor the recent ordi-
nenoes against adulteration, the exporta-
ton of Chinese leaf to the Anglo-Saxon
nations will be inevitably doomed.-LoR-
don Standard.
