BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY.
CHRISTMAS SUPPLIES.
T. BETTS, and CO. respectfully request their
T., • friends not to postpone giving their Orders for the PATENT
BRANDY beyond the 20th instant, as the multiplicity of orders
from that time to Christmas, renders it impossible for them to re-
gulate their deliveries with that punctuality which it has ever been
their anxious wish to observe.

The Patentees in consequence of the numerous imitators of the
Patent Brandy avail themselves of this opportunity to state that the
peculiar wholesome properties of their Brandy, attested by many
eminent Chemists and frequently published since its introduction in
1829, are secured by Patent Right, which in itself forms a sufficient
guarantee, if purchasers be careful to establish the identity of the
article.

The only Establishment of J. T. Betts and Co. is the Distillery,
No. 7, Smithfield-bars, leading to St. John-street, where the Pa-
tent Brandy may be had, either pale or coloured, in quantities not
less than two Gallons, at Eighteen Shillings per Imperial Gallon'
for Cash on delivery.
