RUTHVEN'S PATENT P MOTION,
PARTICULARLY APPLICABLE FOR UMP
slimy PUMPS.
nrIHE excessive labour of the Pump, where manual power is
1 requisite, has long been regretted; and any improvement,
combining simplicity and power* is certainly an object of much
importance, and in no case greater than that of ships or vessels
of every description. This newly-invented PUMP-BRAKE
may be seen at J. ERASER'S, No. 6, Pool-lane, Agent for the
Patentee, who will always have a stock ow hand to supply the
demand. The price being only £3, is considered so moderate
as to ensure its adoption into general use.
Testimonials as to the usefulness of this invention can be seen
at the Advertiser's.

JT. BETTS and Co.'s PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED
• BRANDY, pale or coloured, at the highest legal strength,
only 18s. per Imperial Gallon, when used as an ordinary beve-
rage, diluted (in manner recommended by the first physicians)
in the proportion of one to six, is infihitely preferable to malt,
and other fermentable liquors, _whilst it stands unrivalled for
home-made Wines, Confectionery, and Culinary purposes,
where the absence of acids is a'n important requisite. The su-
periority of the Patent Brandy is established by unanimous
opinions, founded upon various analyses made by the most ce-
lebrated Chemists, from whose certihcates the three accompany-
ing extracts are selected:

EXTRACTS FROM THE TESTIMONIALS.
" Your Brandy is free from uncombined acid and astringent
matter, which exist more or less in most. of the Brandies ins.
ported from France. " JOHN THOMAS COOPER,
" To Mr. &its." Lecturer on Chemistry."

" I am 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 edutaminate the foreign spirit.
"JOSEPH HUME, Chemist to his Majesty."
"J. T. Betts, Esq."
•

" 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 aspirit, as the best varieties of Foreign Brandy.
"EDWARD TURNER,
Professor of Chemistry in the University of London."
" John T. Betts, Esq."

J. T. BETTS and Co. deem it expedient 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 for Liverpool is at
66, VINE-PLACE, LORD-STREET,
where orders will be promptly executed for Cash on delivery.

A liberal bi;count to the trade.
