Agency of the NewYork
CANTON TEA COMPANY.
THE OLDEST TEA ESTABLISHMENT IN
AMERICA !
PRINCIPAL ESTABLISHMENT IN
NEW YORK.
THE CANTON TEA COMPANY has been
popularly known for many years. This is the
largest and oldest Tea Establishnent in America.?
The public have had full proof of their integrity and
responsibility. But such has been the great and
pressing demand for-their TEAS of late, that they
have been obliged to enlarge, to a great extent, tueir
two principal establishments in New York, viz:
126CHATHAM AND 163 GREENWICH
STREETS.
They moreover possess facilities, in relation to the
Tea Trade, in a very abundant degree, and doubt
less, superior to any other Tea Concern in America.
Their scrupulous regard to all principles that tend
to elevate the character of a large house, is well un
derstood, and has already secured thern a connec
tion, probably, larger than all other Tea Establish
ment* united, and they consequently are determined
to sell Teanpurer, more fragrant, and perfect foi
the prices, in the aggregate, than any hou.se in the
world?China excepted.
They most zealously invite the attention of the in
habitants of WASHINGTON, D. C., to their
Agency, where the following assortments are always
on hand; and they feel rjo hesitation in stating that
wherever a single trial is made, a very decided pre
ference is given to the celebrated Teas of the CAN
TON TEA COMPANY.

DR. C A. Van Zandt's Health Restora
tive Pills is a medicine which not only cures
but prevents disease, capable of great results, and
equally calculated to be safely used for apparently
small ones. We all know how dreadful and dan
gerous a sealed bilious disorder is, and we are also
well aware of the seeming insignificance of its first
warnings or incipiency. The individual suffering
from slight pains in his chest, back, or stomach, or
from occasional nausea, dull headache, extreme ner
vousness, sleeplessness, trifling prevarication of ap
petite, and other disagreeable visitations so common
ly and foolishly looked upon as unimportant, may
not know that these symptoms, treated so contemp
tuously, are the consequences of a diseased state of
the liver, which if not remedied, will lead either to
speedy death or a long tiain of unbearable ills which
are known by the following names : Hypochondria,
mania, dizziness, slow fevers, epilepsy, asthma,
dropsy, rheumatism, chlorasis, convulsions, nausea,
nervousness, crapms, gout, pleurisy, jaundice, irrita
bility, and violence, dyspepsia, hysteiics, scurvy, foul
stomach, dry coughs, glandular affections, colds, lin
gering sore throats, various disorganizations of the
great intestine, strictures and spasmodic complaints
internally, eruptions, shortness of breath, heartburn,
neuralgia, vital inflammation, flatulence, gastric fe
vers, &c.
Sometimci, too, there ensues an irregular action
of the heart. Take these pills and suffer no more.
