Mr.. Charles Enger, 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 Hedsieck & Co., as set forth there
in Justly claim TO be alone enabled to send to this
country the genuine Heidsieck & Co. Champaignc,
under the same name and style as originally intro
duced into this market, now nearly thirty years
ago. they being sole proprietors OF all the Identical
vineyards, cellars, &c, which the founders and
originators of this celebrated brand had owned
Such being the fact, we need not dwell upon the
superior quality oftheir Wines, the reputation OF
the same among the American public being already
identifed with unsurpassed excellence.
We beg particularly to notice that their brand
still bears the same name OF Heidseck & Co., IN
full, by which it first became so favorably known.
being thereby easily distinguished from other smi-
lar marks which have since appeared.

sole proprietors Of this well-known brand
In order 10 distinguish the same from limitations
and marks similar 10 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.

we shall require larger number than can be
printed from any ordinary set Of plates, and We
are consequently obliged 10 have them faced with
copper, which will necessarily delain the work
some two or three weeks making the date of pub
icaiion about the Goth Of April. This delay. from
a cause which we could not have anticipated, is a
disappointment which you cannot regret moro
than we do. u. A. " CO. y
