Military.
The Savannah Volunteer Guards made a
I splendid appearance last night in their new
I uniforms. The inspection took place at the
8 armory and was exceedingly satisfactory,
I and concluded with a street parade and
I drill.
I Several of the other companies were out
I on drill, and activity prevails throughout
I military circles. Au imposing demonstration
I may be looked for on Monday. This morn-
I ing the officers of the companies will meet
W to consult in regard to some concerted plan
I of action, and it is to be hoped all the neces-
S sarv arrangements will be completed to ren
der the affair worthy the occasion—the cele-
Wbratioa of the- birthday of the South'd immor-
I tai chieftain.
I Gen. Wade Hampton is expected to arrive
I in our city this evening. He will be met by
i committee of gentlemen, but we have not
learned of any demonstration being made.
We had the pleasure last evening of grasp
ing the hand of our genial friend, Col. Wm.
E. Jjpaulding, the veteran theatrical mana
ger. As usual, the Colonel has in store for
us a rare treat, in a brief engagement of
MaJ. Janauschek, the famous tragedienne,
commencing on Monday, 27th. The visit of
this talented artiste last season is vividly
remembered by our appreciative people, and
it can safely be predicted that she will meet
ith & most flattering reception.
Among the arrivals at the Screven House
last night, we notice the names of Mrs.
Henry Ward Beecher and General Q. A.
Gillmore.
Funeral of Mrs. Josiu.li Tat null.
The funeral of the laris Mrs. Josiah Tat-
ktail, relict of Commodore Tatuall, took
J phee jesterday morning from Christ Church.
J %it Eev. Biahop Quintard, assisted by
I & v . Messrs. Coley, Benedict and Stanley,

I interna and impressive, and the large assem-
l «J was deeply moved. The pail bearers

I kb, Thomas, Chartres and Mr. Maun. The

Democratic Executive Committee.
A meeting of the Democratic Executive
uumttee was held last evening to take into
consideration, it is presumed, measures in
re erence to the municipal election, which
u uow so close at hand. As the meeting was
Pnvate, the result of the deliberations is
Dul kmwn to us, but it is thought the plans
°r nominations of the will be
^ known on Monday.
The annexed circular, received by the
Ladies’ Memorial Association of this citv.
needs no explanation and Will be read with
great interest. In accorance with the re
quests contained therein, we understand
that the ladies have decided to have placed,
at certain public points on Monday, suitable
contribution boxes in order that a sum may
be realized for this laudable purpose, one in
which not only the followers of the immortal
Lee, but every Southern man, woman and
child feels a deep and holy interest. It
is suggested that every one deposit
at least ten cents into these boxes—
as a ten cent donation, although trifling to
the donor, yet from every white person
would aggregate quite a sum. Those who
chose cau drop into the box-they pass
whatever sum they feel able to give, but let
none pass by without depositing at least a
dime. Our volunteer soldiery will be out in
full force on that day, and the occasion will
be most appropriate and opportune for the
contributing of the “Soldiers’ Gift” to aid
in the erection of this monument in honor
of our great and beloved chieftain. Wo have
no doubt that this plan of the Ladies’ Asso
ciation will meet w;th general favor, and
that a lapge sum wiU be realized. • Let not
Savannah be behind her sister cities in this
cause of love and veneration for the virtues
of the greatest hero and statesman of mod
ern times.

Lexington, Ya., November, 1872.
To the Ladies of the South:
The Lee Memorial Association, incorpo
rated by the Legislature of Virginia, was
organized for the purpose of placing a suit
able memorial of Gen. It. E. Lee over his
remains, which rest beneath the Chapel of
\\ ashiugtou and Lee University, at Lexing
ton, Ya. At the suggestion of Mrs. Lee, the
Association selected* as the design of the
memorial a sarcophagus with a full sized
recumbent figure of Gen. Lee to be cut from
the purest marble. A contract has been
made with Mr. Valentine, the distinguised
sculptor, for the preparation and erection of
this memorial, and the cast of the work in
plaster has been already completed. In its
very impressive likeness to our beloved Com
mander the figure is admirable, and the en
tire work, as a specimen of Art iB in every
way wormy of its great subject. Means are
now needed to enable Valentine to go for
ward and put his beautiful conception into
marble.
The total cost of the work “undertaken bv
the Association will M»e $20,000. Of this
amount $5,U00 have beCTralready contributed
by those anxious to do honor to the great
and good Robert E. .Lee. Fifteen thousand
doUars are yet required to complete the me
morial.
At a recent meeting of the Survivors of
the Army of Northern Virginia, the soldiers
who had followed Lee on so many fields,
heartily approving the objects of this Asso
ciation, determined to make an earnest effort
to complete without delay the statue now in
the hands of Valentine. As the surest and
readiest way of effecting this they have ap
pealed to the ladies of the South to join in
celebrating the coming 20th of January,
1873, and in taking such steps on that day as
will secure the moderate sum needed’ to
finish the work. The resolutions unani
mously adopted by the soldiers of the Army
of Northern Virginia, on motion of Lieut.
Gen. Jubal A. Early, are as foHows:
liesoloed, Bv the officers and soldiers of
the Army of Northern Virginia, that it is a
duty of perpetual obligation to cherish and
honor the memory of our great leader, Itobt.
E. Lee.
Jiesolced, That our sympathies are most
heartily with all efforts on tne part of others
to perpetuate his name and fame, and to do
reverence to his exalted character and vir
tues.
liesoloed, That the sarcophagus now in
course of preparation by our Virginia artist,
Valentine, to be placed over trie tomb of
Lee, at Lexington, commends itself to special
favor as promising, from the beauty of the
design and the skil. of the sculptor, to be a
worthy memorial of our departed chief.
liesoloed, That for the purpose of assuring
and expediting the completion of this noble
work of art, to be placed as a fitting token of
a whole people’s love and homage above the
ashes of their dead hero, w% commend to the
ladies of the South to hold memorial meet-
;s oa the next anniversary of the birth of
General It. E. Leo (Monday, 20th January,
1873), and to take such measures as shall to
them seem best for collecting money on that
day to be especially appropriated to’ the dec
oration of his tomb by the erection of tbe
sarcophagus.
We believe the completion of this work to
be dear to the whole people of the South;
that there is not a man or woman in oui
land who will not esteem it a privilege to aid
iu erecting this simple, yet beautiful testi
monial of a people’s love and gratitude over
the grave of our lamented Chief. May we
not then confidently appeal to ilie women of
the aiouth who so nobly boro their share in
the trials of the war to come to our assist
ance in this effort to cherish its holy memo
ries, and to honor the dust of one who has
conferred such imperishable honor upon our
cause and people!
We would suggest that au organized effort
be made upon the day named, to raise the
money needed by private contributions, fairs,
suppers, concerts or lectures. The particu
lar means to be resorted to in each locality
we desire to leave to the discretion of the
ladies.
Funds should be remitted to C. M. Figgat,
F. sq., Cashier of the Bank of Lexington,
Lexington, Va., who is Treasurer of the As
sociation. W. N. Pendleton,

The Jockey Club Meeting.
The Bpring meeting of the Savannah
Jockey Club, which commences February
4th, bids fair to be one of the finest and
most exciting that Lafc over occurred in Sa
vannah. A number of well known stables
have entered, and as the different purses are
liberal some fine sport may be anticipated.
Among the horses that have been entered,
and which are shortly expected from Nash-
ille, we may mention the following belong-
Qg to the stablo of Mr. a. Turner: “Flash,”
chestnut filly, 4 years old, by Hiawatha, out
of Fannie Bugg; “Nashville,” 3 years old,
by Malcolm, dam by Bulletin;. “Hopeful,” 4
years old, by Watson, dam by Lamar, and
Taralee,” 2 years old, by Hiawatha, dam
by Bulletin.
Mr. Ball will have oa hand “Midnight,”
brown horse, 5 years old, by Donerail, out
of Amanda Morehead; “Chief Engineer,” 3
years old, by llivoli, out of Victoire; “Joe
Johnston,” 3 years old, b7 Hunter’s Lexing
ton, dam by Oliver; “Vandalite,” 2 years old,
Jiy Vandal, out of Vesper Light, and chest
nut filly, 2 years old, by imported Australian,
out of Woodford BeUe.
A House of Correction.
In another paragraph montious is made of
tho necessity of a work house or similar in
stitution, whereby may bo utilized the
numerous petty offenders agairat the law,
who now crowd our jails and eat the bread
of idleness at the expense of tho tax-payers.
Our sister city of Charleston, it seems, is to
be blessed in this respect. A bill is now
before tbe Legislature of South Carolina to
establish a house of refuge and industrial
school for that city, which has been favor
ably reported u£on, and wiU probably be
passed. It empowers the City Council to
establish a iiouse of refugo and industrial
school for destitute orphans and juvenile
offenders of all kinds. The institution will
be managed by a board of commissioners
appointed by Council. The Mayor wiU have
tbe power of commitment, and the children
wiU bo instructed in various useful arte until
they arrive at the age of fourteen years,
when tho board of commissioners will bind
them out as apprentices, the females until
eighteen years old, -and tho males until
tweniv-oue. The hill &I50 makes it a misde
meanor for any person to entice away or
harbor an inmate of the institution.
Accident on Ike River.
On Thursday night, as the steamer Charles
S. Ilardee was going down tho river, a small
boat which was tied behind her containing
a man named John Lawson, a sailor board
ing house WU$r, . was upset when near
Fort Jackson, and the rope breaking was
left adrift. It was thought that the man
wag drowned as ho could not be seen, but it
appears ho maNaged to paddlo along to shore
pushing his boat before him, and soached it
safely. The canoe was rightfcd, bailed cut,
and the indefatigable runner proceeded on
his way to Tybee whistling merrily “a life
on the ocean wave,” He did not scare worth
a cent.
Pocket Picked.
Yesterday afternoon, about half-past six
o’clock, a stranger who was waiting at the

train for home, had his pocket picked of a
sum of money amounting to thirty dollars

Mr. TurubuU, agent for “Ole BuU,” don’t
relish the reception extended the great
fiddler at ijpbile and New Orleans. He says :
“Business ‘fair to middling,’ Mobile and
New Orleans not worth a visit from any
first-class company. Rent, hotel charges,
and everything in connection with our busi
ness just 150 per sent, greater than in any
other portion of the country; they go for
you as if they never saw a dollar, or expect
ed to do so again. The South is stiff badly
demoralized and poor indeed. I was lately
sick iu New Orleans, but am now convales
cent, and with the company. The gmn.1l.-r
cities ire by far the most profitable. We do
not have to buy the Opera House for the
purpose of using it for four hours.”
Humpty Dumpty.
Pantomime performance, that is, suc
cessful pantomime, is of such a nature that he
who would essay it before the public must not
only be a finished actor mechanicaffy—that
is, have an intimate and veteran familiarity
with so-called stago “business” and theatre
by-play—But also a complete mastery ovor
the various emotions of sentiment, as well
as a careful insight and studied knowledge
of the conflicting passions which govern men
iu many-sided life. In this regard Mr. G.
L» Fox as Humpty Dumpty gives us a full
realization. It is only giving him the due
meed of praise to say that iu his special role
he is without a rival. He came to Chicago,
says the Tost, after au unprecedented and
successful run in the great metropolis,
heralded by the lavish encomiums of a?ui-
tropolitan press, aud from tho initial per
formance here has been greeted nightly by
large houses, considering the impediment
given to travel from his first appearance.
Last evening the curtain was rung up to a
large and keenly appreciative audience. Mr.
C. K. Fox, as Pantaloon, if not equal, yet
has approximate and extraordinary merit.
Both of these gentlemen are artists in the
true sense, and have marvelous mimetic
power iu caricature and expression. The
Wilson Brothers, in their bewildering revo
lutions, received great applause, and exhibit
ed great skill in feats of physical strength
aud agility. Master T. Casselli, the boy
vocalist, manifested remarkable power iu
ballad singing. The entire performance in
cluded many and varied features, among
which may be mentioned the infants Venus
and Adonis in velocipede gyrations, skatorial
evolutions by Kynock aud Smith, together
with such accessories as real live owls and a
pig of tho genuine sort. All should em
brace this opportunity of seeing the world-
renowned “Humpty Dumpty.”
The company open at our theatre on
Monday night for a brief engagement, and
those who desire to enjoy a hearty laugh
and witness numerous ^nderful feats should
be on hand.
FOUHDISG OF THE PAPAC Y.
Festival of St. Peter's CUaJr.
This day is the occasion of the annual
celebration at Romo of the Festival of St.
Peter’s Chair, meant as an act of gratitude
for-the founding of the Papacy. The cele-
bratiun is of great antiquity, being advert
ed to in a martyrology copied in the time
of St. Willibrod, in 720. It takes place in
St. Peter’s Church, under circumstances of
the greatest solemnity and splendor. It was
one of the few funzioni (functions) as they
are caUed, which are celebrated in that
magnificent temple. The affair is thus de
scribed by Lady Morgan in her work entitled,
“Italy”:
“The splendidly dressed troops that line
the nave of the cathedral, the variety and
richness of vestments which clothe the vari
ous church aud lay dignitaries, abbots,
priests, canons, prelates, cardinals, doctors,
dragoons, senators, and grenadiers, which
march in procession, complete, as they pro
ceed up the vast space of this wondrons tem
ple, a spectacle nowhere to be equaUed with
in the pale of European civilization. In the
midst of swords and .crosiers, of halberds
and crucifixes, surrounded by banners, and
bending under the glittering tiara of three- ;
fold power, appears the aged, feeble, and
worn-out Pope, borne aloft on men’s shoul
ders, in a chair of crimson and gold, aud en
vironed by slaves, (for such they look,) who
waft, from plumes of ostrich feathers mount
ed on ivory wands, a cooling gale, to refresh
his exhausted frame, too frail for the weight
of such honors. All laU prostrate as he
passes up the church to a smaU choir and
throne, temporarily erected beneath the
chair of St. Peter. A solemn service is then
performed, hosannas arise, and royal votar-
ists and diplomatic devotees parade the
church, with guards of honour and rtmning
footmen, while English gentlemen and ladies
mob and scramble, and crowd and bribe,
and fight their way to tho best places they
can obtain.
“At tho extremity of the great nave be
hind the altar, and mounted upon a tribune
designed or ornamented by Michael Angelo,
stands a sort of throne, composed of preci
ous materials, and supported by four gigan
tic figures. A glory of seraphim, with groups
of angels, sheds a briffiant light upon its
splendours. This throne enshrines the real,
plain, worm-eaten, wooden chair, on which
St. Peter, the prince of the apostles, is said
to have pontifi^ted; more precious than aU
the bronze, gold, and gems, with which it is
hidden, not only from impious, but from
holy eyes. ”
."Ir. McCarty’s Strategy.
Our confrere on the Louisville Courier is
poetical genius, an J his manner of dressing
up the cases of the Police Court renders that
feature & popular and amusing one. Re
cently a jolly Hibernian was up before the
Recorder of that city, charged with obtain
ing liquor under false pretences, and with
being drunk. The Local thus discourses
upon his strategy:

Interesting Reminiscences of the
Present Month.
Mr. .Joseph .Jefferson.
As appropos to Mr. Jefferson’s farewell
performance in “Rip Van Winkle” at our
Theatre last evening, which, as usual, was
greeted by a large and fashionable audi
ence—wej publish the foUowing from the
.Wilmington Star in reference to his presont
visit South:
After a lapse of ttventy years since his last
appearance in Wilmington, Mr. Jefferson re
turned to the scenes of his early triumphs to
receive a demonstration which was some
thing more than a mere popular ovation to
an artist whose fame is world-wide, in its
touching revival of traditions associated with
the past of Wilmington and the past of the
►great comedian.
Jefferson’s “Rip Van Winkle” lias long
since passed beyond the domain ol criticism.
For more than a decade it has Deen classed
with the groat pictures which adorn the
galleries of high dramatic art, with the
“Lear” of Forrest, the “Meg Merrilles” of
Charlotte Cushman, tho “Hamlet” of Booth,
and the “Fagiu” of Wallack. The critics of
two continents have exhausted the appli
ances of their art iu the effort to give ade
quate analysis and characterization, of those
subtle and yet gleaming strokes of genius
with which' this wonderful drmatic sketch
so abounds. For years Jefferson’s “Rip Van
Winkle” has been the marvel of the stage—
a picture wonderful in its lights and shadows,
yet with hardly the semblance of a subject—
a magnificent landscape with a barely per
ceptible foreground.
There was a touching suggestion furnished
by the analogies of the play last evening
taken in connection with Mr. Jefferson’s a3-.
sociation with Wilmington. When a mere
strolling player, in the early days of his pro
fessional me, he visited this city, which was
then a point in the theatrical circles em
bracing the Atlantic cities from Norfolk to
Savannah. At that time he had been but a
few years on the stage, and \yas compara
tively unknown save iu the South. Six years
afterwards he was a manager of the stock
company of tho Richmond Theatre, from
which he went to Laura Keene’s 'Theatre in
New York.
In the great theatrical centre of the coun
try he quickly began a reputation which is
now colossal, by means of his masterly de
lineations of “Asa Trenchard” and “Rip
Van Winkle.” With a reputation second to
that of no living actor, after a lapse of twenty
years, Mr. Jefferson returns, like “Rip Van
Winkle,” to realize tho sad mutations
wrought by tho flight of a score of years. It
would require no great effort of the imagi
nation to believe that something of pathos
was added to the moving emotional passages
of the play bv the great actor's painful re-
flization of the changes of twenty-odd years,
even in a community as small as that of
Wilmington.
To Mr. John T. Ford, of Baltimore, so
long and favorably known to the Southern
public, we are indebted for tho great intei-
fectural treat afforded us by Mr. Jefferson's
last night’s performance. We trust that
Mr. Ford will be encouraged to favor Wil
mington, asweU as other Southern cities,
with visits from other eminent representa
tives of legitimate dramatic art.
Iu the perusal of reminiscences of the
early days of our beautiful city many of our
readers derive peculiar interest. The con
trast between the past and the present is
wonderful, and as many little events con
nected with the history of the city are inter
esting, and if 'known, are forgotten, wo
deem a revivification of a few of tlrem will be
received with pleasure.
We will confine our notice to incidents
connected with the present month, and com
mence at the year 1750, when the entire
white population of Georgia was computed
at about 1,500.
In January, 1751, a public Filature was
erected on a lot in Reynolds ward, where
now stands a block of build^gs known as
Cassel’s Row. It remained for some forty
years as a filature or manufactory of silk, but
subsequently was used as a city hall and a
public house, and was destroyed by fire iu
1839.
Robert Bolton, Esq., the first postmaster
of Savannah, was appointed in January,
17G4, by Benjamin Barron, Esq., Postmaster
General of the Southern District of Ameri
ca. In January, 17GG, the city consisted oi
four hundred dwelling houses, a churc h, an
independent meeting house, a council
'house, a court house and a filature? It
had also two suburbs—Yamacraw and Trus
tees’ Gardens (a placo^rhere the Trustees
had a famous garden laid out in order to
make experiments before objects were ac
counted profitable to bo introduced). There
were three fiuo libraries established, in
which were works in almost all languages.
Iu Januiry, 1770, the city extended on the
west to what is now Jefferson street, on the
east to what is now Lincoln, and on the
South to what is now South Broad street,
ami contained six squares and twelve streets
besides the Bay.
The first session of the Legislature of the
State was held in Savannah in January,
1784, in the brick house now standing in
South Broad street, between Drayton and
Abercom, (but which has been so re-mod
elled and altered that not the least sem
blance to antiquity remains). This build
ing was afterwards occupied ss* a public
house and long known as “Eppingor’s Ball
Room.” It is the oldest brick house in Sa
vannah. Dr. Lyman HaU was then Gov
ernor of Georgia.
A law was passed by the Legislature in
iu December, 1789, making Savannah a city,
and in January of tho following year the
first Mayor (John Houstoun) was elected.
Rather Cate, bat Dangerous.
Among tho many ente tricks resorted to
by jokers to have a little fun, is that of sud
denly coming up behind a friend, pinching
him on the back of the leg, accompanying
the action with tho yelp of a dog. The
person thus surprised is apt to display his
agility to advantage amidst the yells of
spectators. A genial gentleman, somewhat
lean, noted for his fondness far playing
pranks, tried this trick upon a corpulent
friend yosterday afternoon on Jones street.
Unfortunately for the joker, the corpulent
gentleman lost his prejenoe of mind and fell
back upon him. The lean joker was pried
up from the sidewalk with a crow bar aud
carried home on a shuttqr. He now sports
a pair of trusses.

Recorder’s Court.
The session of this famous tribunal yes
terday was devoid of any interesting inci
dents.
Three choice characters who disregarded
the injunction to “taste not,” were intro
duced on the charge of being drunk and dis
orderly, and were each fined five dollars or
ten days. One forked over the “greens,”
the other two solemnly rambled towards the
jail.
Sarah Habersham, of the colored con
struction, was granted three days’ sojourn
in jail to reflect over her f ,lly in quarrelling
with and assaulting James Habersham.
Henry Ferguson knows how to sling a
rock as well as the b_-st of them. At least
this is the opinion of a party who chanced
to cross Henry's path, aud now wears a bump
on the side of his head. The rock-slinger
paid over the costs and departed.
Sam Middleton and Edward Steward, found
with articles in their possession, supposed
to be stolen, were remandod for investiga
tion.
Toby Lock, a colored driver, was fined for
driving through a lane, and the Court then
adjourned.
Presentments by the Grand Jury.
The following true bills were yesterday
returned by tho Grand Jury. It will be seen
that, with one exception, all the parties are
colored, who are charged with slinging the
ballot oftener than the law allows, at the
recent State and Presidential elections :
James Eady, colored, misdemeanor ; Adam
McIntosh, colored, misdemeanor; William
Squire, colored, misdemeanor; Chas. Greer,
Mark Hunt aud Hunter Davis, colored, mis
demeanor.
Dennis O’Connell, simple larceny, and
accessory after the fact. Superintendent
William Rogers, of the Central Road, pros
ecutor.
Superior Court.
HON. WM. SCHLEY, JUDGE, PRESIDING.
The Court met yesterday, and after the
transaction of some unimportant business
adjourned until Wednesday, January 22d.
The Worries of House-Keepers.
Ainong the numerous trials and vexations
which now-a-days disturb the equanimity of
house-keepers is the trifling and dishonesty
of colored servant girls. It is difficult to
bear with the impudence and trifling of
many of thorn, but in addition to this is the
constant dread of having something stolen.
These damsels appear to have a peculiar
penchant for ladies’ fine underwear, quilts,
sheets, Ac., which are easily concealed and
carried off, and which are not likely to be
missed until it is too late to recover them.
The thief usually having a pretext for leav
ing the place when she deems it prudent to
do so. Numerous arrests are made of these
characters, but they are often enabled to
pay tho fine imposed, which is rather mode
rate, or if they are not, a rest of a month or
two in jail, in idleness, it anything is rather
enjoyable. What is needed is a work-house,
where these petty thieves could be put to
som»j useful and wholesome labor for six
months or more; where there would not'bc
a dead expense to the county. Tho fear of
being compelled to work would, perhaps,
have the effect of rendering them a little
more honest.
Yesterday afternoon we noticed in a Magis
trate’s office a colored girl who had recently
been employed iu a large boarding house in
•this city, and who, taking advantage of
the opportunities offered her, had stolen a
lot of fine underclothing belonging to the
lady of the house, valued at over $100. Of
course she denied the charge aud protest
ed her innocence. Tho persistent impu
dence with which some of these colored ap-
propriators assert their innocence iu the
face of direct proof of guilt, is as general us
it is remarkable. To hear them, one might
imagine they would sooner suffer death than
ho guilty of such an act; a^S yet at the same
time we have known them to have on their
persons articles identified as stolen. In
many cases parties prefer to lose the articles
rather than make complaint before the
courts. This should not he, only a rigorous
.prosecution of such characters will remedy
the evil.

THE GREAT AMERICAN TEA COMPANY.
Saxtons Kites, Vt., Dec. 28,1872.
Editor American Grocer:
Be kind enough to inform us through your
valuable paper as to the reliability of “The
Great American Tea Company,” a specimen
of whose circular 1 enclose, which are being
scattered profusely iu this vicinity. Very
respectfully yours, H. C. J.
Answer.—So far as the general commer
cial standing of tho Great American Tea
Company is concerned, wo do not know any
thing against it. We presume it pays for its
goods and is making money; but when it
comes to the statements of that Company,
as contained in the circular sent us by our
correspondent, of the great reductions in the
price of teas, of its great business connec
tions with all the principal ports of China
and Japan, of its saving the consumer from
five to eight profits, of relying upon getting
ouly puro and fresh teas, and all that sort of
talk, we would advise our friends to receive
them with a very large grain of salt. It buys
the most of its teas hero in New York, just
as nearly all the jobbers aud wholesale gro
cers do. It sells them as high, or higher.
If there are any specially bad lots of teas ou
the market, it is almost sure to get hold of
them, and, from its long experience in ma
nipulating, can put the “high hills of Asia”
flavor into them, so as to deceive nine-tenths
of the consumers who patronize its club ar
rangement. We have no doubt that our cor
respondent is selling better teas than this
Company offers, and at as reasonable rates.
The above \ e copy from the American
Grocer, a well-known journal of established
reliability.
We have constantly on hand a full assort
ment of pure teas, selected especially for
this market, which we offer at figures rang
ing from eighty cents upwards.
