serve the Name and Address correspond with the above. The genee
ral appearance of the spurious descriptions will deceive the un-

cautions:—Some are in appearance at first sight, '• the genuine," but
Without name or address ; some " Burgess's Essence of Anchovies,"
and others " Burgiss's ;" and many more 'without address. j oho
Burgess and Son, having been many years honoured with such dis-
tinguished approbation, feel every sentiment of respect towards the
public, and earnestly solicit them to inspect the labels previous to
purchasing what they conceive to be of their make, which they hope
will prevent many disappointments.

great satisfaction, continuos to be prepared by them, and is recom-
mended as a most useful and convenient sauce ; will keep good in all
climates.
