On the last-named Bubject he said : — %t ltwas all venj well for Ministers and honorable members to claim before the general public the credit of having r educe i the duty on tea 2d per Ib He questioned whether any family was ad better off m consequence of, what they did last year" While admitting that Mr Tanner may be an authority on oats and eohool primers, his B weeping assertion regarding Tea is contrary, to fact. It is admitted that m the matter of blended teas it was m some cases alleged that no alterations would be made m price, out the difference would be given m quality. That may or may not have been done, but had Mr Tanner investigated the matter thoroughly, he would have found that SURA- TURA TEA was immediately lowered m price to the public by the amount ol the duty, and the quality of it being bo firmly established, no doubt entered anyone's mind bub that the reduction m price was a genuine one, and that the quality remains the same. Suratura Tea is guaranteed NOT blended with Indian or China Tea. JOHN ORR & Co., ' Agents.

ONE WORD. OOMB to you with a small affair 1 that you may need. In England, the Continent-,- and many foreign countrie myself and wares are well known Many American families on their j return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but you may not be one of these Confidence between man and man is slow of growth, and when found, its rarity makes it valuable. I ask your confidence and make a reference to this Journal to endorse that confidence. I do not' think it will be misplaced, I make the best form of cure — an absolute one — for biliousness and headache that can be^tfund m this year. The cure is so* small. in it- self, and yet its comfort to you is so greats-twenty minutes being its limit when relief comes — that it has become a marvel of its time. One and a half grains of medicine, coated with sngar is my remedy, m the shape of one small pill, known to commerce as De Haydook's New Livee Pill. It is old m the market of Europe, but is new to North America. The price is as low as an honest medicine can be sold at, 25 cents. Send a postal card for a sample vial, to try ;hem, before you purchase.
