INTERCOLONIAL FOOTBALL.

(FROM OUR SPEOIAL CORRESPONDENT.)

Sydney, June 12.

The third match was against a suburbs team of sov«nteen in Moore Park. In con sideration of their evident superiority over anything that had been brought against them, they resolved to play against a team of 17, and to still further strengthen their opponents' chance of scoring a victory. The New Zealanders also agreed to keep four of their best men out of the field, viz., their Capt., W. V. Milton, O'Connor, Helmore, and Roberts. After the decisive victory of Saturday it was not for a moment supposed that the suburbanites would have a show of winning, and consequently not much Interest was excited in the match, and there was but a poor attendance on tho ground, it not being 'known*, that the New Zealanders intended of their own accord to weaken their team. However, results showed that the men who took the field were plenty strong enough to kick rings round their opponents y in fact, it very much looks as though tho Wolshmon will have to play about 25 if thoy want to pull off a victory. In the absenco of Milton, the captainship was entrusted to Robertson, whilo Walker, of tho Rodfern Club, cap tained tho opposing team. For the fir3t time tho toss was won by the Welshmen, and the skipper took what no doubt he considered to be the most advantageous end of the ground; but the only advantage consisted in having a little wind in his favour. The weather was rather warm, it must be admitted, for football, but in no way damped the ardour of any of the contestants. Tho franio commenced a few minutes after 3 o'clock, by the New Zealand skipper kicking off. For about a quarter of an hour the Welshmen played with great dash and vigour, and indeed for a short timesoemod as if thoy intended to have thoir own way, although they never gained a singles point. " Our Boys " were evidently having a little play with them, with a view of tiring them out, and their enthusiasm would soon appear tohave had this effect, for the pace told upon them, and the superior stamina and magnificent play of the visitors very soon changed the aspect of affairs, ana knocked their op ponents, figuratively speaking, com fetely into a cooked hat. They had as much as thoy could do at their end of the fiold to keep tho ball from being goaled. Tho New Zealanders at this stage of the ganio'gave evidence of their prowess in the art of passing, and gave their opponents some Tory good samples of play in this respect. The ball gradually shifted to the middle of the ground, and was kept there for some time, after which it was again forced towards the Sydney stronghold. After a series of passes, the leather rested in the hands of Davy, who, with a capital run, got a touch for his side. Ryan was entrusted with the try for po»l, but failed to get it. Some loose scrimmaging took place olose to the suburban goal, and Wilson secured the ball and got a touoh-down.: Ryan again had the kick allotted to him, and again did ho fail to score a goal. The visitors now mado a cpmbin»d attack on tho enemy's quarters. Taiaroa made a splendid pass to O'Donnell, who passed the ball back to tho young chiaftain, who, on his part, made a dash, and eluding his foes, though hotly pursued, succeeded in setting over the line. Ryan then took tho kick, but tho goal was by no moans an easy ono, tho angle being do; cidedly crooked, and he accordingly missed tho mark, The suburban men then mado a responso by rushing tho oval to the far end of the ground. There a good struggle took place, and Pearce secured a try, which was converted into a goal by 8. Jones by a nplendid kick. Half time was then called, and the game stood: New Zealand, 6 points; Welshmen, 5 points. At, the expiration of the usual short interval Dumbell got hold of the ball smartly and dodged a couple of lib oppononts, and kicked a goal from the field in a very clever and workmanlike unmoor. Fortne rest of the game our New Zealand boys hod it all their own way, com pletely putting into the shade tho 17 com bination of suburban clubs, which by this time seemed to have the stuffing knocked cOmpletoly out of them. Ryan made a splendid run, and got a try for it. The ball was passed by Taiaroa in capital style, and Dumboll, who had the kick, availed himself of it like a man and a foot baller, for he sent it flying clean over tho bar. Taiaroa was the next to score, securing a try, but he failed to got a goal, the distance being too great, in addi tion to which the angle was a most difficult one. Allen was the next to score, a. try, in his case, being the event; after which the East Coaster, Warbrick, scored a brilliant goal for his side by a really splendid long drop-kick. There was some very effective passing, which onded with O'Donnell giving the ball to Loeky, who got safely across the enemy's line. The young Maori took the kick, but the anglo was not in' his favour, and ho failed to secure a goal, tho kick being an exceedingly difficult one. After a little more play, and before anything more was scored, time was called, and the game onded to tho utter discomfiture of the suburbans, notwithstanding that they played a vory good game. The result was 23 points to 5, or two goals and seven, tries to one goal, the larger figcreg of course being those of the flaxlandors. Just before the game concluded some very fine drop-kicking was shown by Ryan, Warbrick, and Broddon, the first natned Aueklander especially calling forth loud appause on th» part of the spectators, who, although? not very numerous, were decidedly enthusiastic* Great praise is also due to the New Zealand forwards, who were again most conspicuous for the way in which they worked together, while the passing of the entire team was the theme of general admiration. This was the first match in which the Welshman had scored at all, and at the end of the game the score stood for the three matches: •New Zealand,|67 points; Welshmen, spoints. This li wiiat the,"Daily Telegraph" had to say on the subject on the following morn ing of the football ohampionshlp:—No "glorieus uncertainty" appears to attach to the Berierof football matches now being played between the local clubs and the visiting team -from New Zealand. By universal consent the championship belongs to the strangers. The New South Wales players arp not much more than "muffs" by comparison with tho . genial fellows who are teaching them how to play the game; but the humiliation of defeat after defeat is somewhat softened by the recollection that Rugby football is the game of New Zealand, as cricket is the game of Australia. There is a natural affinity between the climate of New Zealand and the robust character of this outdoor sport.. It has taken hold oi the youth of _ the colony, and is played with enthusiasm through half tho year. The Victorian winter is much more favourable to football than the same season in New South Wales and Queensland. ' Experience proves that it-will be difficult to .thoroughly ac climatise the game in these northern; colonies;. We shall probably have to be content with that superiority we can win in the cricket field.> Thebest of cricketers we could send to N.Z. would be as triuinphaftti there as the visiting footballers are here, and it is well that each colony can bear the palm in its own particular sport. It is not pleasant to be beaten at anything, but the splendid trained young fellows from across the water have not had reason to complain that their skill and prowess are not keenly andheartilyappreciated, Thosewhowatched the game last Saturday possibly went to see our fellows win. Those who may go next Saturday—and we trust thousands v?ijl be present—will go to see the visitors play, for they give an exhibition of football such as has never been witnessed in Aus tralia before, and they are an ocoular demon stration of the physical manhood which is being developed in New Zealand. If the intellectual development is correspondent, tWe will be a fine struggle for manhood supremacy between the continental and the island colonies. It is safe to say that in New Zealand we shall have a dangerous rival to • the quality of our native-born population. Meanwhile, the interchanges of sport will contribute not inconsiderably to the growth of friendly sentiment. The milea of water which separate New Zealand from us are a much more formidable obstaole to intercourse thanasmany miles of land would be.There is enormously more migration of population on this continent, and Now Zealand voyages are being shortened*, but nobody can tame the ocean or, protect the human'stomach from-Bhe agonies of mdl deriier^ biit'the Britain 3''6f:: the: South'will always .be politically associated- with *the f Australian colonies, and therefore we should 'eagerly seize what' fine opportunities1 :offer ,tp' foster the friendly ieeling,1 which will help to maintain a friendly political relationship. iii this direction.,, The offices of an annual series of football matches, played alternately, in the i-yvo colonies, should not be despised.- The yqjith of each ,colony will become plea? santly interested in the youth of the other. i !Dttringth,o early part of the game in the sul^bto Jmschj Leckiei receded a 'severe cut overjthe eroi. Vhiohj.bled - profusely arid caused the player acute pain;, but never theless ho maintained his position manfully

to the close of the matoh.. It was only on returning to town that the wound was sewn up, but it was of so severe a character that he was recommonded not to play in the Newcastle matoh, and he accordingly took a rest on that occasion. He hardly knows himself how ho got the blow which caused the cut, but it is thought it happened in one of the scrimmages. At the time of writing it is not known whether or not he will play in the big match to-day against the combined representative team. Matoh at Newcastle. The team arrived at Newcastle on Wed nesday morning in the s.s. Naomi, and were very soon comfortably quartered at the Terminus Hotel. After breakfast, in accordance with an arrangement which had previously been made by the Newcastle men, they started in a number of 'buses and sociables, and a couple of buggies ; and as the party drove off they were greeted with ringing; cheers by the crowd assembled to see them ott. The trip was very pleasant, notwithstand ing that, in consequence of the wretched state of the roads, the party had several times to dismount and travel on "shanks pony" a considerable distance. A party from town accompanied the footballers, and at Charleston a halt was made, and a capital lunch was served at the principal hotel. At a late stage of the journey, the party partook of a smoking hot dinner, after which they boarded the steamer "Pinafore," and mado a cruise round the Lake which, however, has not so many points of interest as our own Lake Takapuna. On the return journey the wholo party were refreshed with tea, and, town was reached about six o'clock. On the following morning, by the courtesy of the Harbour Master, and at the invitation of Mr R. B. Wallace, President of the Club, the visitors were taken round the harbour in a steamer, from which they viewed the chief spots of interest in the harbour. In , the afternoon the match came off, arid it was fondly hoped that the Newcastle men would pull it off, as they had beon practising most assiduously for some time previously, al though the result of the Sydney matches had somewhat frightened them. The site selected for the match was the Newcastle Cricket Club's ground, which was in pretty good order; but, unfortunately, shortly be fore the game commenced the rain began to fall, although the earlier part of the day had been fine.

The following aro the names of the two teams who took part in the match :—New castle : F. Bode, T. Gore, C. Lawrence, J. Greaves, S. Laing, G. Millard, T. Jackson, E. Graham, A. B. Ford, F. Lochead, H. Gow, H. Laing, G. Hehnan, J. Samuels, J. Wood ; emergencies, A. Millard, A.TJrooks, J. Gow; umpire, J. Kooke. New Zealand : Backs, Ryan and Roberts; three-quarter backs, Warbrick and Dumbell; half-backs, Taiaroa and Helmore; forwards, W. Milton (captain), E. Milton, Allan, Robertson, Webb, Udy, O'Donnell, Wilson, and barter. Umpire, Mr. O'Connor. Newcastle won the toss, and elected to play from the north side, and no sooner had the game commenced than it was very evi dent both to the Newcastle men themselves and the onlookers that the local men would have a couple of hours' very hard work be fore them j and the onlookers were there in plenty, for not only was the grand stand packed, but there were hundreds of people all round the ground, who, how ever, soon tried to get what shelter, they could, huddled against the grand stand. The struggle opened with a strong defence, and after a little by-play, the New_ Zea landers seemed a try, followed speedily by a second. The local men followed their example, and J, Woods was then put On to give the kick-off, but the slippery condi tion of tho ball was too much for him. A scrummage followed, in which tho weight of tho visiting team told visibly. Before, however, anything decisive occurred, a blinding squall came on, and the ground was soon a mnss of mud and slush. . At the same time the thunder growled angrily around, and forked lightning was darting i about in all directions, so that nothing but the most determined pluck on both sides would have induced them to go on with the game. At times it was almost impossible to see the contestants, who flitted about, ! not like " walking" but like running shadows. It was. very difficult to hold the ball at all; to grip it was impossible. It was as Blippery as an eel, and as the players went after it they slid along for yards, as though on a sheet of ice. The Newcastle men, in the midst of this sort of thing, scored their first and only touch-down, and immediately after one of the New Zea landers, whom it was impossible to dis tinguish in the blinding raw, forced down, and the blues also forced down five minutes later, immediately after which the captain (Milton) went to grass, but, it is needless to say, he was not hurt, although his uniform showed the effect of the fall. After two or threo more force-downs, and some more scrimmaging, one; of the blues got a fair kick at the ball, and sent it flying over the bar, thus securing first goal. After a very few minutes' interval for breathing time, and a mouthful of something to keep out the cold (to keep out the damp was impossible), the team went to : work, not being . desirous of standing about in their wet clothes. It is needless to de scribe at length the second part of the game, for the Newoastle team were hope- j leßsly overmatched. The ground and weather were such that it was impossible to play football as it should be played, i There were several changes in botb^ sides, j but on these occasions the stamina of J the Now Zealand always told._ Their passing, too, was beyond, all praise, and fairly astonished their opponents, and elicited hearty cheers from the spectators, as did indeed any good phase of the game when it could be seen through the rain. Taiaroa made the dash of the day, and rushed the ball through all opposition, and secured a touch-down after sliding several yards through a regular lake, amidst the cheers of the spectators. When time was called the result of the game was a win for the New Zealanders by 5 goals and 3 tries to nil. The hostilities having ceased, cheers were exchanged lustily between the teams, and when someone called for three more for the Queen they were given with much heartiness'and loyalty, notwithstanding the damp ourroundiugs.

In the evening the visitors were,enter tained at a banquet at the Terminus Hotel, the entertainers being the Newcastle Foot ball Club. The President was in the chair, and the vice-chair was occupied by Major Stokes. At 7.30 they sat down to the "spread," which •was in every respect worthy of the Occasion. In response to the toast of the visitors, Mr Milton responded, and took occasion, to strenuously repudiate the rumour that the New Zealand team had been inhospitably treated in Sydney. He felt extremely grieved that anyone should havo been so impertinent as to put forward a statement so utterly false. He attributed their success to their being able to train a month or so earlier in New Zealand, and through playing together and knowing each other's voices they derived an advantage. He in all friendliness recommended the Newcastle team to pay rather more atteh-; tibn to their dribbling and kicking. Run ning was very good in its place, out good dribbling would beat anythingthat opposing forwards, could do. Mr Sleigh further re pudiated! with much indignation the false rumours that had been circulated. He con tended that the old Rugby game was the game. The Association and Rugby games as played at home were unruly games, but in Victoria certainly not. (Cheers.) The health of Captain Graham, of the Newcastle team, -*yas drunk enthusiastically. MrF. F. Whistlers, as 'an old N.Z. footballer, re sponded in a oapital speech, detailing some of his experiences as an umpire in the island. He criticised the day's play in a humorous vien, and in Conclusion complimented Taiaroa upon his final brilliant run on his. "last z, with a little twist, finished off with a little swim." A number of other toasts were proposed and responded to, and an exceedingly pleasant evening was spent,, offering a strong contrast to the "joyful miseries " of the afternoon.

After the banquet the visitors were ac companied by their hosts to the steamer's wharf, where they took their departure for Sydney by the Maitland. Every member of the team expressed his thanks for the kind and hospitable manner in which they had been treated by the Newcastle Rugby boys,-and the farewells were as cordial as if both guests and entertainers had maintained affection for'each other styce childhood. When the last'bell rang, the lads from Maoriland seemed loth to depart, and one Or two were very nearly left behind ; but at" last all were aboard, when a ringing cheer ( wont up in Honour of the New Zealand team from the , Newcastle men. This was. responded to lustily from tli© Maitland, and the air' re-' Bounded with a '' hurrah ■ ?', that.'. spoke of lungs which sustained physique of iron and muscles of steel. Then' the Maitland whistle blew, and the:guests departed for Sydney amidst the familiar strains of " For They are? Jolly Good; Fellows;", and "Auld Lang Syne." They arrived at the Metiopoli tan at an early hour, and speedily proceeded to put themselves in " good order and con dition " for meeting the city belles or any other friends that might call upon them, or whom they might feel disposed to visit. : Shortly' after,;.breakfast, in response to the ; foy-itetion of the, Mayor (Mr 'John Hardie), the New Zealanders visited the Town Hall, and were shown over

the building, many ; parts/of yrhich ar« worthy of admiration, especially .*«»«*•«»■ bule and the new Council Chamber. This latter is a slight improvement on the Ola City Board room, Queen-street, Auckland, where in my time (from '65 to 73) the cure\ fathers used to hold their meetings, and to which historic associations are even now attdched'in my breast. One of them comes to me strongly as I write,and the picture of the "People's Champion"—of Upper Queen-attest second-hand (very second hand) shop fame—being removed from the chamber in question by a gentleman in. blue, for creating a disturbance (even while ' one of the ratepayers' representatives), is as forcibly impression upon my mental vision as if it had been a thing of yesterday. Oh I those good old times ! But to return to the Sydney Town Hall. The New Zealand footballers having seen all that was to be seen of the building, including the foundation of the new hall, which will be considerably larger than the Melbourne Town Hall, they were invited by the Mayor into his room, and champagne opened. His Worship (a bakerand confectioner in a large way of business)1 then proposed the health of the visiting team, and in the course of his remarks said he hoped they would allow the N.S.W. men to place at least ppe victory to their credit, but at the same time he expressed. his private opinion that their generosity would not allow them to do so if they could help it. Mr Milton, the Captain, responded in felicitious terms, thanking the Mayor for his hospitality and the people of New South Wi»les generally for the cordial welcome that had .been universally extended to them since their arrival. At the same time, he availed him self of the opportunity to express his own surprise and the surprise and indignation of the team at hearing, when they were at Newcastle, that a telegram had been sent from Sydney to a local paper.to the effect that the team were dissatisfied with^their reception in Sydney. He took this occa sion to most emphatically deny the truth of ihe statement as being without a vestige of foundation. They could not sjie-ik too highly of the treatment they had receiv ed on all sides ever since they had landed. Mr Sleigh, the Hon. Secretary, then pro posed the health of His Worship, which waa responded to with all the musical honours. In the afternoon the boys spread themselves out and enjoyed themselves as it suited them best, splitting up in twos and threes, and spending the rest of the day,' many of them in visiting friends, for they are already quite at home, and have many of them more privateinvitationsthan they can attend to. In the evenings the theatres or other places of entertainment" or interest were visited, and taken altogether, the bojs were very good boys, and retired to bed early to prepare for the struggle of the morning. In connection with the matterto which the Captain referred at the Town Hall, the New Zealand men, when in Newcastle, drew up a document for publication, in which they indignantly and absolutely repudiated the rumour circulated in that city through the publication of the Sydney telegram that they were treated shabbily. In this they affirmed that since their feet first touched our shores, they had met with Ihe most unbounded hospitality, and they are at a loss to think how such an unfounded libel could have originated, and I may say that several members of the team have pri vately expressed the same sentiment to me, bidding me tell their New Zealand friends that they have been.treated with nothing but kindness and hospitality since they landed, and that they shall not soon forget the pleasant time which they have already spent in • the " White City " of the Pacific up to the present time. The weather i in Sydney has been simply magnificent since the team arrived, and on the occasion of their matches it has been especially propitious ; in the coal city, however (Newcastle), they experienced a slight change, and the downpour of rain, which made the game uncommonly lively, must have reminded the Aucklrfnders of their own part of the world when the "weather" comes down as it is wont to do in the same way for three or four days at a time with out cessation ; but with this exception our men have had very pleasant times. ■

They have been made very much .of, and the newspapers have devoted a good deal of <?pace to chronicling the matches .and com menting on their prowess. They seem to be particularly struck with Taiaroa, "the Maori chief," as some of the journals call him. The illustrated papers have graphic sketches of the principal matches, and don't fail to give especial prominence to the foot baller from the Maori kaik. It is admitted on all hands that they can teach the New South Welshmen a wrinkle or two, and that they are infinitely the better men for football; they give several reasons for thi*, the principal one of which seems to be that they are brought up in a more robust cliit&te. Some of the papers make no distinction of provinces,and talk about their being cold for half the yeary while New South Wales, according to them, is the " sunny South" all the year round, and so calculated to keep back the frame of football. As a matter of fact, I have felt it infinitely, colder in Sydney during the winter months than I have ever felt it either in Auckland, Wellington, or Christchurch, but the Welshmen having i been put bo thoroughly through their facings, must of'course attribute it to a cause that will be soothing to themselves. However, while admitting the superority of the New Zealanders at football, they lay the flattering unction to their eouls that they can any day send over a second-rate team and lick us at cricket. A writer in one of the local papers,- however, tells them: not to make too sure of this, and reminds them that in 1877 (he thinks) the English cricketing team, after a victorious career throughout Australasia, was fairly beaten by a Canterbury representative team," and for my own part I'm not so sure of a second rate team of cricketers from New South Wales running the rings round the New Zealanders on their own soil, as these writers try to make out. . Perhaps one of these days we shall have the opportunity of seeing. To-day, for the second time on the Associations ground at Moore Park, the New Zealanders will meet a repre sentative team of New South Welshmen, and the event is being looked forward to with very great interest, and will in all pro-, bability be witnessed by some thousands of people; for, although the New Zealanders have bo far been victorious (Fancy 196 pointe to 6, so far), there appears to be an impres sion abroad that on this occasion it will take the visitors all they can do to win. Not that.for a moment they under-rate the prowess of "our men" (there lam again, you see), or, I should rather say, •• your" men, but they either seem to think the New South Wales team is better than that which played last Saturday, or else that the god of football (by the way | I never heard that there was such a god) will favour them. Napoleon. used to say that God fought on the heaviest! battalions. If that be so, there is little doubt of the, result of to-day'splay. No doubt the N.S. W, men will profit something by the experience gained at their lost match, but that they will score a win no one who really under stands the game and has watched both sides can for a moment believe.

.The "Evening*. News," speaking on the subject last evening,says: "Our demolition will be complete should our visitors win to morrow, i The Sydney players must learn to' play harraonfausjy and keep in their places. , Last Saturday' there was no passing, no judgment in kicking, and* no backing up. In addition to this, the forward wing' players were playing in the centre, and the centre players on the wing. The following 15 players are picked to represent the colony to-morrow :—Back, H. Baylies; half-backs, J. Cleeve, P. Chapman/Belcher; quarter backs, H. Fligg, S. Vapman; forwards, C, Tange, H. Tange, H. W. Clement,. T. Walter, P. Blaylea, Oxley, G. Graham, Sweetland, and Pell. Emergencies— E,ulyer, Lee, and Williamson. Of course the disposition of the'players may bo slightly different to that given "above,' but one cannot help feeling pleased in hat ing that the two Chapmane, C. Tange, Cleeve, Oxley, Sweetland, and Fllgg are included in the team. '; Speaking on the subject ,of the match this morning's "Telegraph" says: —On the Association grounds this afternoon the splendid team "of footballers from New Zealand will engage in, their sabond match against a representative team, from the clubs playing under the southern Rugby v. Union. Great efiqrfe will be made by our representatives, to wipe out the defeat inflicted on them last Saturday on the Agricultural Ground, and judging by the excellent form they have been exhibiting in their practice matches during the, week, the visitors will have to play in, their best form if they wish" to avoid being on the-losing-side-this afternoon!) The Committee of the Union have selected what might truthfully be put forth as the strongest fifteen Bugby p uyera that can b$ got together in New South Wales, and should their force fail to lower the colours of the redoubtable New Eeajanders, we will have te adroit that the latter are un doubtedly our masters at this style of the game, In order to meet the requirements of the large number of spectatora that are expected to visit the scene Of the encounter, arrangements have been made with the Tramway Department,,to run special trams to the ground at short intervals during the afternoon. The match will commence at 3 sharp, and the members of each team are:

particularly requested to be on the ground at 2.30 p.m." As I write, the weather is magnificent " being bright and cold, and I look upon a victory for our boys as a certainty, I Be n j this letter by way of Melbourne, and to oatch the Rotomahana, which leaves that place early on Tuesday morning. I have to post this by the mail closing this afternoon, so that I am afraid I shall not be able to include an ac count of the match in this letter. You will however, long ere this have learned the ■ result by telegraph, and 1 will write you fully by the Manapouri, leaving here for Auckland direct next Thursday. '.

Tea saerchaiits. NELSON,iOATE, ; and co.s BLENDED TEAS VERSES INDIAN TEAS. FROM a late paragraph and advertise ment in the "New Zealand Herald," we notice a serious error in the remarks about tho increase of imports in Indian Teas. We can as sure all' interested that the consumption of Indian Tea has decreased to an alarming extent; so much so that last season the Melbourne ana New Zealand markets wore glutted, and good, sound, sweet Teas were selling penoe per lb. brilow cost, and this year the imports are many thousands of cases below last, making it a very difficult matter to buy even a few hundred oases. The same advertisement alludes to the intro duction of Indians into Now Zealand; With regard to whioh we beg to draw the attention of tho public to the following local that appeared some time back in the "Lyttellon Times," showing NELSON, MOATS, & Co. to bo the Largest Importers, and consequently tb o Largest . Sellers, of Indian Tea in New Zealand. Wo do t not wish to lun Indian Tea down.-as.it is | without doubt, when carefully fired, "&c, a | most usoful Tea. to those only experienced au 'the art of Blending China and Indian Teas; The Tea by itself will never take tlie place of Cliirni or Blended Xeas, as only about 10 % qf the Tea Drinkers are ever ablo to drink even the finest Darjeeling and Assam kind*. ■• • ■-"'"■ --' <'• In England the consumption of Blended. Tea has increased to a greater extent than any ori-J ginal imported tea. " The largest importation of Indian Teas to New Zealand was made last month by Messrs NELSON, MOATE, AND CO. It consisted of over lfiOO packages Jchests,and half-thests) of Pekoes and, Pekoe Soxichong, from the well known districts of Cachas; Assam, Darjeeling, Shylett, Chittagong, and Vovars.
