TAE PING It is with these appropriate words, the English signification of which is "Peace and Plenty," that Captain Pidding's Chinese correspondent heads his last communication from Fo-kein, "Heaven," he adds, "approving, has rained down blessings on the Central Nation. In the same Season, Peace is proclaimed, and Plenty crowns the land. Since the year 4448" (A.D. 1811), "when the earth was revivified by the broom-tailed star" (comet) "vegetation has not been to luxuriant as now. The air, redolent of perfume from the fragrant tea-blossoms, manifests its fine quality; whilst the plentiful picking shows how abundant is the precious leaf. Thus, has nature conspired with the Gods to make man happy." The new season' crop of Capt. Pidding's Teas, just received, realises all that he anticipated from the above communication. Their quality is most assuredly the finest he has known. Their abundance,—with a remission of duties in prospect,—has determined him at once to reduce the price below what they have ever before been charged. Captain Pidding's Mixed Black Tea Is Accordingly Reduced from 8s 6d the Catty Package, to 6s, the pound Package. His Small Leaf Gunpowder is Reduced from Twelve Shillings the Catty package, to 8s 6d, the Pound Package. The Signature Of The Sole Importer Captain John Rhodes Pidding Hon. Comp. Service.
