lETT'S PATENT ,BRANDY.—If any
proof were required of the rising celebrity of this
Spirit, and the expiring efforts of attempted competition, the
Excise returns would at once furnish the solution ; while the
prediction, on its introduction in 1829, that " it would even.
tually, supersede the use of French Brandy," is rapidly ap-
proaching its accomplishment ; its sale for the first quarter of
the present year having exceeded that of the corresponding
quarter of the last year by 10,873 gallons; thus making an
tnnual increase of near 50,000 gallons ; while the consumption
of French Brandy is, on the contrary, gradually decreaSing.
Query? Is there another Brandy Establishment in the
mogdom whose entire trade, for the last three months, has
elloalled. in number of gallons, the increased sales alone of the
r atent Brandy ? The Patentees challenge publicity.
, The only establishment of J. T. BETTS and CO., is the
-uistillery, No. 7, Smithfield-bars, leading to St. John-street,
Where the Patent Brandy may be had, either pale or coloured,
ijl quantities no less than two gallons, a !Eighteen Shillings per
Iroperial Gallon, for cash on delivery.
A liberal discount to the trade.

SYNOPSIS of the CAUSE and CURE of
DISEASE, according to the HYGEIAN, or MORI-
'ONIAN SYSTEM.
A knowledge of the best means for preserving and restoring
health is the most important of human pursuits. This know-
ledge is only to be acquired by following Nature.
I.—All animal bodies consist of fluids and solids.
2.—.1t is by and from the fluids the solids are formed.
3.—The fluids contained in the human body are four times
the weight of the solids.
4.—The chief of the fluids is the blood, froth which all the
others are derived and are derivable.

s.—The blood is the life—thel; tim um mobile—the first agent
-from which all others derive their origin.
6.—Health depends upon the purity of the blood.
7.—The purity of the blood depends upon its having free
outlets for its acquired impurities.
B.—Disease is induced by the choking up of these outlets in
the bowels by an accumulation of morbid secretions on the inner
liurface of the intestines, &c.

9. —This accumulation is occasioned by anything that weakens
the circulation, or impairs digestion.
lo.—The impurities thus detained in the blood occasion every
species of disease, according to *he particular locality in which
they become lodged.
diseases proceed from one source, therefore they
flay all be cured by one medicine.
12. —This medicine must be a purgative, innoxious in itself,
Yet sufficiently powerful to carry off the above-mentioned
Vitiated secretions, and by improving digestion, improve the
blood.

13.—This discovery has been made by Mr. James Morison,
the Hygeist, in the composition of the Vegetable Universal
alednes.
