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 Establisinent in America.? The public have had full proof of their integrity and responsibility. But such has been the great and preasing demand for .their TEAS of late, that they have been obliged to enlarge, to a great extent,tneir two principal establishments in New York, viz: 125 CHATHAM AND 163 GREENWICH STREETS. They moreover possess facilities, in relation to the Tea Trade, in a very abundant degree, ami 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 them a connec tion, probably, larger than all other Tea Establish ments united, and they consequently are determined to sell Teas purer, more fragrant, and perfect for the prices, in the aggregate, than any house 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 no hevitation 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.
