Teas.

ASSAM TEAS.

INDIAN TEAS are celebrated for

their Extraordinary Richness of

Flavor, Bouquet, and Great Strength, and are rapidly superseding tho finer grades of China Teas. Twenty years ago ASSAM TEAS were an unknown commodity in the London Market. It is estimated that last year's consump-tion of Indian Teas in England was 37,000,0001b. weight.

Indian Teas are eagerly sought after by all experienced English Grocers for mixing purposes ; and most of the leading London Grocers admit that " They have doubled, and in many in-stances quadrupled, their Tea trade by tho judicious blending of Indian Teas." In these TeaB the public have a certain protection from adulteration, for, if once UBed, their dolicious flavor is bo marked that no judge of Tea will be satisfied with a substitute.

We have much pleasure in stating that we are in receipt of a shipment of these desirable TEAS DIRECT FROM THE ASSAM PLANTATIONS ; and we are certain that thoBe who have the wisdom to use theBe Teas, will be quite prepared to indorse all that has been said in their favor. Our intimate knowledge of the Tea Trade, seconded by the intelligent activity of our India and China Agents, enables us to offer advantages to the trade which few other

Houses in the colonies can.
