BETTS'S PATENT METALLIC CAPSULES
are now being generally adopted by the Ale and
Porter Export Trade, being the only safeguard against fraud.
See the Svdney Mercantile Journal and Shipping Register,
Dec. 1, 1853
Bottlers should not relax in their best methods ofgetting
up Beer, or their names will lose the credit which is now
attached to them. A good deal of Malt Liquor of an inferior
quality is bottled in this Colony with English Labels; this is
passed off at auctions as genuine, and the English bottlers are
damnified in credit and of course in profit ; but if they kept
up their quality and Capsuled and wired their bottles, spurious
articles could not be so easily foisted on the public."
As a convincing proof of the appreciation of the merits and
utility of our Capsules, we subjoin the following letter, re-
ceived from Messrs. Barclay, Perkins, and Co.'s Sole Agent,
Mr. JOHN TYNER, of Liverol :

DEAR SIRS, —ln answer to your inquiry, the Fire-resisting
Safe made by you was a very small one ; though exposed to a.
tremendous fire, and much injured by large masses of mate—
rials falling upon it, and remaining under the burning mass►
several days (from March Ist to March 6th), yet we are gladl
to say the most valuable part of its contents were so little
injured that the writing was easily transcribed.—We area

nature of the fire, and the length of time the Safe was exposed
to the action of the flames, I was fully convinced of the d
