PATENT BRANDY VERSUS PREJUDICE.-
J. T. BETTS and Co. had flattered themselves that the
unprecedented extent of sale and admitted superiority in
the quality of their PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY
world, ere now, have wholly dissipated the prejudice
hide has been known to exist in the minds of many per-
sons against Brandy manufactured in this country, and
which, before the introduction of their article, was,
perhaps, justifiable. If a patronage, as distinguished as
it is extensive, including many thoussnd families of every
rank and class of society in all parts of the kinedom, be
any proof of merit, then has the PATENT BRANDY irre-
sistible claims to universal support.
J. T. BETTS and Co. could well have afforded to rest
their claims to the merit of having in'roduced an unri-
valled produe,ion on such incontrovertible evidence. But
they feel that the public, rather than themselves, are in-
terested in the announcement, that they are perfectly
aware of the efforts still made by interested persons to de-
preciale the PATENT BRANDY ; and to prevent the entire
removal from the public mind of that injurious delusion,
which, however weakened, still exists in a qualified de-
gree. It is mainly with a •iew, therefore, to destroy the
last remnant of this prejudice, that J. T. BETTS and Co.
recall the attention of all classes to the consideration of
the decided approval given by the faculty to their PATENT
BRANDY—nn approbation resting on the important facts
contained in the following detail :

First—That " BETTS'S PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED
BRANDY" is the only known pure Spirit in the World.
Secondly—That the dealers in French Brandy—who
have always been the most inveterate, as they are the na-
tural opponents of the PATENT BRANDY-have been re-
peatedly challenged in the public journals, by comparison
or otherwise, to disprove the foregoing fact ; and as the
vital interests of their trade hang upon its disproval, the
sole and just inference drawn by the public, from their•
constantly declining to accept the challenge, is, that THE
FACT 15 BEYOND DISPUTE.

Thirdly—That, whilst the PATENT BRANDY possesses
all the valuable properties of the first class Cognac, it ;s
free from the acids which even that fine spirit is known to
cant :in. Its superiority is still more marked over French
Brandies of the second and lower classes, which are fre-
quently mixed with considerable quantities of a spirit ob-
tained from other products than the grape, containing a
large proportion of acid, which tends seriously to disorder
the stomach.

Fourthly—That, in consequence of the freedom of the
PATENT BRANDY from those injurious acids, its use is
not attended with nausea or headset). And, as a necessary
consequence of its extreme purity, it is found congenial to
the most delicate constitutions, and is especially valuable to
persons of bilious or dyseptic habits.
Fifthly—That, for the foregoing reasons, all the faculty,
who are acquainted with the intrinsic merits of the PA-
TENT BRANDY, recommend it, in preference to any other
spirit, for medicinal purposes.
Sixthly—That, for the like reasons, when used as an
ordinary beverage, diluted (in the manner recommended
by the first physicians) in the proportion of one to six, it
is infinitely preferable to Malt, and other fermentable
liquors, whilst it stands unrivalled for lIO3IE.3IADE
WINES, CONFECTIONARY, and CULINARY purposes, where
the absence of acids is an important requisite.
Sfventhly—That the PATENT BRANDY, either PALE
or COLOURED, at the highest legal strength, is charged
only EIGHTEEN SHILLINGS per Imperial Gallon, or little
more than half the price of French Brandy.
And Lastly--That the superiority of the PATENT
BRANDY, as thus defined, is established by unanimous
opinions, founded upon the results of various analyses
made by the most celebrated Chytnists ; from whose certi-
ficates the three accompanying extracts are selected :

EXTRACTS FROM THE TESTIMONIALS.
" Your Brandy is free from uncombined acid and astringent
matter, which exists more or less in most of the Brandies im-
ported from France. " JOHN THOMAS COOPER,
" To Mr. Betts." " Lecturer on Chymistry."
" I am bound to say, and do assert it with confidence, that for
of spirit this cannot be surpassed, and that your Patent
is also quite tree from those acids which, though minute
ii3nurraqinutYdanytity, always contaminate the foreign spirit.
" JOSEPH HUME,
" J. T. Betts, Esq." " Chymist to his Majesty."
" I do not hesitate to express my conviction that your Patent
Brandy is fully as free from everything injurious to health,
containsand
as pure a spirit, as the best varieties of Foreign Brandy.
" EDWARD TURNER,
" Professor of Chymistry in the University of London."
" John 'l'. Betts, Esq.

J. T. BErrs and Co. deem it expdient to caution the
public against the many spurious imitations which abound
both in Town and Country; and in consequence of the
name of their Distillery having been pirated, it is further
necessary to state, that their only Establishment is at No.
7, Smithfield Bars (leading to St. John-street), where
orders for Two Gallons and upwards will be promptly
executed for Cash on delivery.
A liberal Discount to the Trade.
