The Country.
THIS fine brand of Champagne, which until the
i past year was confined exclusively to the best ia
bles of the Continent of Europe, has now obtained
the most unbounded success and popularity in this
country. 1t is recommended by some of the first
Physicians of the city of New York, over all other
wines on account of its extreme purity and delca-
ey and those WHO once try 1t rarely use any other
brand. Although only one year has elapsed since
its introduction into this country, the demand is
enormous and constantly increasing. Our arrange
ments are such to the quality of the Wine
being maintained at its present high standard. The
