PATENT BRANDY vsssus COGNAC as Novo.

TT is a fact, that within these few months the price of
X French Brandy has advanced Thirty per Cent. and it is equally
true that the community at large never had so little occasion to feel
Interested in such au event.

The irresistible march of science has, in the production of that In-
comparable Spirit, BETTS' PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED
BRANDY, discovered a substitute, superior even to its favourite
prototype ! Inferior French and Spanish Brandies (of which the con-
sumption is by no means inconsiderable,) will net bear with it the
slightest comparison. The most competent judges of its flavour and
quality have repeatedly expressed their perfect astonishment at its,
exact imitation of the finest Cognac. Chemists, justly celebrated for
their scientific attainments, have, upon analyzation, pronounced it to
be a more pure and wholesome Spirit, while its price is but little more
than half that of French Brandy, via. 18s. per imperial gallon.
It is then to the patriot, who studies his country's weal—to the
connoisseur, who delights in a delicate flavour—to the agriculturist,
from whose produce it is made—to the economist, whose prudence it
invites—to the invalid, whose health and comfort it promotes—to the
prejudiced, who have hitherto suffered their judgment to be enslaved
—and to the consumers of Brandy in every class of society, that J. T.
BETTS and Co. confidently appeal for patronage and support.

EXTRACTS FROM THE TESTIMONIALS.

" Tour Brandy is free from uncombined acid and astringent matter,
which exists more or less in most of the Brandies imported from
Francs. " JOHN THOMAS COOPER.

" To Mr. Betts." Lecturer on Chemistry."
" lam bound to say, and do assert it with confidence, that for
purity of Spirit this cannot be surpassed ; and that your Patent Brandy
Is also quite free from those acids which, though minute in quantity,
always contaminate the foreign spirit.
JOSEPH HUME,
" J. T. Betts, Rsq. Chemist to his Majesty."
" I do not hesitate to express my conviction, that your Patent
Brandy is fully as free from every thing Injurious to health, and
contains as pure a spirit, as the best varieties of Foreign Brandy.
" EDWARD TURNER,
" Professor of Chemistry in the University of London.
" John T. Betts, Esq."

rp To prevent imposition, please to observe, that the PATENT
BRANDY Is manufactured only at the Distillery, in SMITH-
FIELD BARS, and that the price invariably charged is Eighteen
Shillings per Gallon.

THE principle on which SPILSBURY'S PATENT
ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS act, is admirably calculated to
answer the important ends for which it is employed with remarkable
ingenuity to the interior springs of the human body. It acts with gen-
tleness, efficacy, and, at the same time, safe and suitable to every age,
sex, constitution, and climate, without the necessity of regimen or
restraint from business or pleasure, which places this medicine far be-
yond all other Antiscorbutics, in the experience and opinion in the
world, by the demand and sale of these valuable Drops at home and
abroad.

" Domus et placens usor."—Hon.
Thy house, and (in the cup of life,
That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife.
HAPPINESS " the gay to-morrow of the mind" is
ensured by marriage; " the strictest tie of perpetual friend-
ship," is a gift from Heaven, cementing pleasure with reason, by
which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association
with celestial intelligence."

Pitvious, however, to entering into the hallowed obligation of
marriage, it becomes an impressive duty, not only to regulate the
passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which
the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the
neglect of such attention,are attributable many of those hapless instances,
which, while they excite the commiseration of the beholder, should
31$0 impress him with the fear of self-reproach.
Luxurious habits will effeminise the body—a residence in the
w.upics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the pre-
mature infatuation of youth, too frequently compromise the natural
dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonised sufferer
more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such then, we address
titinelves, offering bope—energy—muscular strength—felicity; nor
will our advances appear questionable, sanctioned as they are by the
Multiplied proofs of twenty years' successful experience.

The easy cares of married life are sometimes diuurbed by the sus.
pension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath—for
the female habit is often constitutionally weak—yet it can be strength-
ened, end deficient energy improved into functional power.

In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxation
al the generative economy, we pledge on ability to cure speedily,
and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling empyric
?tom the position so presumptuously taken up, we deviate from general
principles with less hesitation ' • sad confident in our own honourable
integrity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the suffer-
ing community of either Sex (especially those entering into matrimonial
hie) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given for per-
...oriel consultation ; and letters from the country are immediately an-
.mered ; these must contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine,
describing minutely the ease, which can be forwarded to any part of
the world, however distant. No difficulty can occur, as the Medicine
will be securely packed, and carefully protected from observation.
