CHOLERA MORBLTS.

At a time like the present, when universal alarm pre.
veils, frosts fear of being visited by this dreadful scourge,
and when the English Cholera was never before known to
be so prevalent, it behoves every ore, not only to observe
the stricest precaution in their diet, to avert, if possible,
its uncertain and momentary attack, but to be also pre-
pared with the most efficient remedies, an the Ent intima-
tion of its approaches.
To counteract predisposition to such a malady, and to
realist its rapidly progressive effects, Physicians of the hen
eminence, who have witnessed its ravages, invariably recom-
mend the use of pure Brandy as an indisrissable requisite ;
and as they have also discovered from practical result.,
that in every case of Cholera a superabundant accumulation
of acid prevails, J. T. Betts and Co. feel it a duty they owe
to the Public again to point attention to the superior merit.

" Sta—The sample of Patent French Distilled Brandy
you sent me I have accurately examined ; and having in-
stituted a series of experiments on it, and on the finest
French Brandy, I have in these comparative trials been
able to discover so little difference, either in their composi-
tion or effects, that they may be coneld.r.d u identical ; ex-
cepting that your Brandy is fret frum uncombined acid and
astringent matter, which exists more or less in most of the
Brandies imported front France.
