X ENUINE HEIDSIECK g. co. CHAM
" pagne.-The subscribers having been APP
upoied by Messrs. Hedsieck IL Co. to succeed
Mr. Charles Engler, heretofore sole agent in the
in the United States for the sale of their Wines,
who this day retires from business, respectfully
call the attention of the public to the subjoined
card.
The Messrs. Heidsleck & Co., as set forth there
in Justly claim to be alone enabled 10 send to this
country the genuine Heidsieck & Co. Champagne,
under the same name and style as originally intro
duced into this market, now nearly thirty years
ago, they being sole propretors OF all the identical
vineyards, cellars, &C., which the founders and
originators of this celebrated brand had owned.
Such being the fact, we Heed 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 Heldsieck & Co., in
full, by which it first became so favorably known.
being thereby easily distinguished from other SINH
lar marks which have since appeared.
New YORK, January !, 1854.
CRAMER 81 ABEGG,
Successor to Charles Engler,
and sole importers in the United States.
STANISLAUS MURRAY is our sub-agent for
Washington and Georgetown, d. c., and Alex
andria, Va.
CARD-Upon the dissolution Of the old
firm Heidsieck dc Co., in 1884, the senior partner
who had the sole charge Of its liquidation, con-
tinued the business retaining exclusive possession
of the vineyards, vaults, &c. which the origina
partnership had enjoyed.
Our new firm are his immediate successors and
sole proprietors of this well-known brand.
In order to distinguish the same from limitations
and marks similar to our own, which have ap-
peared and may hereafter appear in this market,
the name of our firm in full will be found on the
labels and around the corks.

SIR: series ofexpermenis Conducted by me,
with the utmost care, during the past three years,
upon all the various paints and artificial prepara-
tons for the preservation Of timber, have led me
to the important discovery that the White Zinc
Paint, manufacturedby the New Jersey Zinc Com
pany, serves as perfect protection against the
ravages of the marine worm, and the formation OF
barnacles, whilst no other paint or preparation OF
any kind combines the same protective effect
am now preparing a full report on this impor-
tant subject TO the Bureaus Of Yards and Docks, at
Washington, and shall send with it a complete Sc
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 for marine purposes.
You are at liberty to give full publicity TO the
above stated facts which are of too much impor-
tance to be kept from the naval and commercial
world. / am, respectfully, your obedient servant
