THE FOOCHOW TEA TRADE.
Although the general quality of China tea is not now up to its former standard of excellence, there is no reason why it should be condemned in the unscrupulous manner it has been by some of those who proless to know something about it. The writer of the article in the Japan Mail entitled "Fifty years of the Indian Ten Trade," states that China tea is elor fously adulterated. The imperturbable Chinese the trade, will allow this statement to pass reader, though probably largely interested in unchallenged, as indeed all similar asscitions discrediting China Lea have been during the pastlew years, allowed to pass.

countries at a low price. The opinion of all our tea tasters is that the tea is good, wonder- fully good at the price; good in the leaf and good in infusion, and the strength in the cup undeniably great. This is their opinion of it as tea. But they none of them seera to think it desirable as an article of beverage, any more than do the medical men at home. Dyspepsia and shattered nerves must result, sooner or later, from the constant use of it. To prefer it to an average cup of delicate China tea in thinking, a vittated taste.
