STITUTIONS FOR

BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY.
TO those who recollect the nauseous and unwholesome
properties which distinguished the article known as
British Brandy, previously to the year 1829, and the pre-
diction that all attempts at competition with French
Brandy could only result in an entire failure, the introduc-
tion of the Patent Brandy, at that period, was matter of
much surprise;-combining, as it was found to do, all the
essential properties of the finer qualities of Brandy ma-
nufactured in France, with a degree of purity, and conse-
quent wholesomeness, unknown in the latter.
The existence of these valuable properties in BETTS'S
PATENT BRANDY, was distinctly certified, after analysis,
by some of the first Chemists of the day. That evidence
has been fully sustained by the extensive support of the
most eminent Medical Men ; and, very especially, by its
long-established use, under Medical direction, in prefer.
ence to French Brandy, in the principal Infirmaries,
Hospitals, and other Public Institutions, throughout the
country ; among which it will suffice to name Guy's and
the 'Westminster Hospitals, in the Metropolis, and the
Manchester and Bristol Infirmaries. An unprecedented
extent of sale has, likewise, marked its progress in public
estimation.

That an article possessed of such merits, and sold at a
little more than half the price of French Brandy, should
not have entirely superseded the use of the Foreign, is
only to be attributed to the fact, that the Patentee has had
to struggle, not only with the original—and, it must be
admitted, well-founded—prejudice against Brandy pro-
duced in this country ; but, also, against a constant suc-
cession of attempts to force into consumption inferior
descriptions—in many cases as substitutes for, and even
under the name of, the Patent Brandy.
The correction of this evil, which has long been matter
of extreme solicitude to the Patentee, is at length effected,
by a METALLIC CAPSULE, or covering for the Cork; the
exclusive manufacture of which is secured to him by
Letters Patent. It is composed—NOT OF TINFOIL, an
article much used, but—of perfectly pure and soup
METAL; stamped by the aid of powerful and costly ma-
chinery, into the exact size and shape adapted to the bot-
tle; to which it is attached by simple, but most effective,
means : and its adhesion is so perfect, that it cannot be
removed without being completely destroyed; and, there-
fore, no Capsule can be used a second time.
The Patentee, by the aid of this most efficient guarantee
against the frands from which he and his numerous con-
nexions have so extensively suffered, will now be enabled
to protect the interests of all concerned, whether as ven-
dors or purchasers; and if care be taken to observe, that
the Capsules attached to the glass bottles, have the words
