As a prejudice generally prevails against the purchase of Cheap
Wines, merely owing to the tricks too commonly practised by frau-
dulent dealers, who have no character at stake, and consequently
no reputation to lose, it is earnestly recommended to those who,
although disposed to be economical in the purchase. may neverthe-
less be somewhat sceptical in the selection of their Wines, to send
a sample of any of the articles Rohl by this Company, for the
opinion of any friend distinguished for the excellence of his taste
ce chemical knowledge, either omitting co state the price, or rating
it (as may well be) at half as much more ; by that means the true
unbiassed character of the wines may be oMained ; and surely, in
an article so expensive, so necessary, and in such general use,
when declared good and wholesome—the pure juice of the grape.
free from all noxious ingredients (as tit, undersigned pledge their
reputation is the case with the above), the saving of near fifty per
cant. cannot fail to be an object well worth the consideration of
every economical individual and well-regulated family.

DISH'S FAREWELL !! !—TO THE PUBLIC.
1N addressing you, 'rmy hest Friends." for the last time,
as Contractor, I do feel vuioua sensations not to be described ;
inexpressible gratitude for years of unbounded preference and fa.
yours bestowed for a long series of years, not merely on myself, but
on my late father. We have, it is true, as Dispensers of the fa-
vours of the Blind Goddess, been most eminently successful in
distributing an unprecedented List of Capitals, amounting in the
aggregate to many Millions; and, as Lotteries increased in num-
a, my fame for the distribution of its wealth increased also. It
s, therefore, with the sincerest regret I announce that the Legisla-
ture has come to what I consider a very unwise decision, viz. to
abolish Lotteries. And for what reason ? Only to please a few per-
ms, who have net examined their merits, bat have confounded
illegal transactions with the legitimate. I may be considered to
take a partial view of the case ; hut where a system has gone on
without intermission ever since the, reign of Queen Anne, and
brought annually nearly Half a Million into the Treasury. I can-
not but agree with an eminent writer, who says," Surely the pre-
sent is not the best period for experiments ;" and it would, in my
humble opinion, have been more wise to have done away with Deer
rase obnoxious and paltry Taxes (vexatious in their collection),
than to annihilate the Lottery, which, let it be well borne in
mind, is a voluntary Tax ; and, by its continuance, not only
might those obnoxious Taxes be removed, but hundreds of per-
sons kept in employment who must now be discharged ; and is
this a time to add to the number of those who want support ? It
is, however, useless to repine--the Government have decided that
it shall be so—and all that can be now door is, to make the must
of the short time allowed before the system is abolished. As one
of the last Contractors, I have arranged, with shy Colleagues, such
a Scheme as must. I think, give universal satisfaction. It contains
the very unprecedented number of SIX (hand Prizes of 30,0001.
Money (no former Lottery ever contained more than Four): and
my fame for aide of 30,9001. Prizes is proverbial—l Rede first,
the last, and more than half of all that have ever been drawn! No
Blanks—all Sterling Money—Aral all to be decided in One Day,
lath JULY, being the very Last Drawing of all.
Tickets and Shares are on Sale at my Offices, where Schemes
may be had gratis. The Price will rise considerably on Monday,
the 27th instant. I hate the honour to be,
Your devoted Savant,
T. BISH, Stock-Broker.
