■ " Johk Casseli still lives in the eleTUting stream of literature for ever flowing- 'from the great publishing bouse he ftmnded. 'Few tneu hare left a deeper mark ron- their ago than John Oassetl. He arrived in London in 1838, with all his belongings tied up in a coloured handkerchief. At the various temperance meetings which tie addressed, in a rough and uncultured nsanner, but with an earnestness that pro Ted his attachment to temperance views. He saw, however, that more was wanted th&n'metfe preachicg, and with a sagacity deserving of recognition, he projecfea 'two strong counteractive forces^to intemperance— wholesome beverages;• ani3 \] educatioual literature. He set up;ia 'Fenchurch street an establishment for the sale of tea and coffee. A long way after him MoGowak follows with his 3s tea. McGowAir has been in the tea trade for' many years, and has a Home and Colonial experience in selection that few can lay claim to. A few years ago it. occurred to him, after Beeing th 9 sameness of the quality of tea supplied on the Thames, that there .wan room for a better article than that usually sold. At the same time be saw that it would be suicidal to introduce a high price, so he determined to put before the judges of good tea an article for 3s, that could not be excelled, unless there were those wealthy enough to receive it from Buseia, costing about 15s per lb there, being conveyed overland by caravan. Most people have a hobby, and 3s TEA is McGowan'S Hobet, get a pound and try it. McGowAff'B 3s Tea is different and distinct from all other Teas.

It is bis intention, at some future date, to publish, for the information of tbe trade, fall instructions as to the plant, time of pulling, selection, manipulation, Sec. . The public are requested to judge. for themselves, in preference to listening to. the disparaging remarks of interested and unprincipled tradesmen.
