ago. they Being sole proprietors of all the identical
vineyards. cellars, &c., which the founders and
orginators Of this celebrated brand had owned
Such being the fact, we need not dwell upon the
superior quality Of their Wines, the reputation Of
the same among the American public being already
identified with unsurpassed excellence.
We beg particularly TO notice that their brand
still bears the same name of Heidsieck & Co., in
full, by which it first became so favorably known
being thereby easily distng from other smi
lar marks which have since appeared.

SIR A series of experiments conducted by me-
with the utmost care, during the past three years
upon all the various paints and artificial prepare.
tions for the preservation Of timber, have led me
to the important discovery that the White Zinc
Paint, manufaciuredby the New Jersey Zinc Com
pany, serves as perfect protection against the
ravages ofthe marine worm, and the formation Of
barnacles, whilst no other paint preparation Of
any kind combines the same protective effect.
am now preparing full report on this impor-
tant subject TO the Bureaus Of Yards and Docks, al
Washington aud shall send with il complete se-
res Of specimens of wood anG metal plates, which
were covered with the different paints and pre-
parations, and then exposed alike for an entire
season, in salt water, opposite this navy yard; all
Of which illustrates, in the most striking manner,
the invaluable qualities and decided superiority Of
your White Zinc Paint over all other kinds Of
paints especially formarine purposes.
You are at liberty TO give full publicity to the
above stated facts, which are of too much mpor-
tance to be kept from the naval and commercial
world. / am, respectfully, your obedient servant,
