Monmouthshire Merlin

GMTOSTG. IMPORTANT TO ADVERTISERS THE Counties of SOUTH WALES, bor- dering on England, offer the most valuable and profitable fields for ADVERTISERS that can be found < within the same extent in the empire-if we exclude the I great Metropolis, and the rich teeming districts of the I ever-productive, the ever-absorbing NORTH. MONMOUTHSHIRE, GLAMORGANSHIRE BRECONSHIRE, with their large population, commercial enterprise, and rapidity-increasing wealth, are, unquestionably, COUNTIES to which Advertisers may look with confidence for an ample return for any outlay they may incur, in pushing their several interests, with a view to large and produc- tive sales, &o. 1 THE MONMOUTHSHIRE MERLIN, GLAMORGANSHIRE AND BRECON SILURIAN, N SOUTH WALES ADVERTISER, has been for more than a quarter of a century, the GREAT ADVERTISING MEDIUM OF THE DISTRICT. Advertisers desirous of availing themselves of the pub- licity of its columns, are requested to address the Publisher, Mr. CHRISTOPHERS, NEWPORT, MON- HOUTHSHIBE. Advertisements inserted on a Moderate Scale; and when Contracted for by the Year, Half-year, or Quarter, the terms are proportionately reduced. NEWSPAPER CIRCULATION.

Persons desirous of knowing their true character, or that of any friend in whom f. may be interested, must send a specimen of their writing, siaung sex and age, or supposed age, with the fee of 14 penny postage stamps, to Miss Russell, Castle House, Southampton street, Mornington Crescent, London, and they will receive, in a day or two, a full and minute detail of the gifts, defects, talents, tastes, affections, &c., of the writer, with many other things hitherto unsuspected, calculated to guide them through life. A 1 letters are considered strictly confidential, and to prevent mistakes, applicants are requested to enclose an envelope pro- perly directed to themselves. The many thousands who have thankfully acknowledged the value of advice given, and the ac- curacy of Miss R.'s pourtrayals of character, establish the truth and value of the science beyond a doubt.

Agents appointed for the Sale of our Packet Teas. [2063 BROCKSOPP, SONS, & CO., LONDON, HAVE much satisfaction in reviewing tha rise and progress of their business as connected with Country Agents. In 1836, they commenced appointing Agents for the Sale of their HOWQUA'S MIXTURE,* and 'MOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER;' the fame of which justly CELEBRATED TEAS spread rapidly, numerous Agents were appointed, and large sales effected. The flattering reception and patronage accorded by the Public to these Teas, led to the idea of packing all the various kinds in general use. At first the sale in packages was novel, and B. S. and Co., for some years had almost the exclusive Trade at length a host of competi- tors sprung up, which had only the effect of bringing them into greater notoriety, from the fact of their adopting the plan, to which they strictly adhere, of Selling NONE BUT TEAS OF GENUINE AND STERLING QUALITY. In these days of pretension, when the art of puffery is exhausted to palm off upon the public mere rubbish, under a decorated disguise, it would seem almost hopeless to advertise a good article, without bestowing a few su- perlatives upon it; but, as good wine needs no bush,' so good Teas require no adventitious aids to reomtnend them. The HOWQUA'S and MOWQUA'S TEAS, im- ported by BROCKSOPP, SONS, and Co., have been appre- ciated for many years. RETAIL PRICES. Howqua's Mixture, pound Catty Package 4s. 8d.
