Fine Teas. 
This is a coni lunation of capitalists to supply the con¬ 
sumers of Teas throughout the United States on the mutual 
principle. 
We expect every consumer of Teas to render us all the 
assistance they can in carrying out our enterprise, as we 
m.dee a specialty of SUPPLYING CONSUMERS ONLY, 
(and allow no middlemen to make any profit, on our im¬ 
portations,) which will enable us to supply them with Teas 
at prices lower than have ever been known, and of those 
fine qualiti s that seldom reach the interior, being sold only 
in large cities and among the very wealthy.

Their History, Breeding, and Management, 
By LEWIS F. ALLEN. 
ILLUSTRATED. PRICE, POST-PAID, $2.50. 
This book will be considered indispensable by every 
breeder of live-stock. The large experience of the author 
in improving the character of American herds adds to the 
weight of his observations, and has enabled him to produce 
n work which will at once make good its claims as a stand¬ 
ard authority oh the subject. An excellent feature of the 
volume is its orderly, methodical-arrangement, condensing 
a great variety of information into a comparatively small 
compass, and enabling the reader to find the point on which 
lie is seeking light, without wasting ids time in turning over 
the leaves.

and the welfare and happiness of all future occupants.

By SANIUEU B. PARSONS. 
ILLUSTRATED. PRICE, POST-PAID, $1.50. 
Tlie Rose is the only flower that can be said to have a his¬ 
tory. It is popular now and was so centuries ago. In his 
work upon tlie Rose, Mr. Parsons has gathered up tlie curi¬ 
ous legends concerning the flower, and gives us an idea of 
the esteem in which it was held in former times. A simple 
garden classification lias been adopted, and the leading vari¬ 
eties under each class enumerated and briefly described. 
The chapters on multiplication, cultivation, and training, 
are very full, and the work is altogether tlie most complete 
of any before tlie public.
