      BETTS'S PATENT BRAND Y has ever since its introduction to tbe public been recognised , both by scientific men and the trade , as the beat article ever manufactured in this country . Its claims to such ¦ preeminence are based upon its-uurLvalled purity , and its closer assimilation than any other to the flavour of the finest Champagne Brandy . There has been no Brandy mado from "Wino in France , either in the present year or in the preceding one . Owing to the successive failures in their vintages , the French wine grower gets a higher price for his wine , consumed as such , than , ho can reahse by its being distilled into Brandy ; and forasmuch as the Foreign Brandy of recent importations is Init the product of British grain and beetroot spirits , the Erestige hitherto exclusively enjoyed by French . Brandy as aving been distilled from a particular French win * no longer exists , and is no longer worthily assignable to it now that is bunglingly made from other materials . The supply of wine for distillation into Brandy having failed , the Trench distiller is constrained to recur to a manufacture in ¦ which he needs the quarter of a century ' s experience which lias been exercised upon that of BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY , to render his article respectably competitive , and he has not had it . Under these circumstances , the 2 ffiessrs . Betts challenge that their PATENT BRANDY is superior to any now made abroad . It is to the interest of the public and the Messrs . Betts tbat these facts should be widely spread , for recent importations are of a quality so inferior as to disgrace the tamo they bear , and are twice the price of BETTS'S PATENT BBANDY , which is supplied by the trade to private families in . & ny quantity , down to the single capsuled bottle . Excise regulations prevent its sale from the DISTILLERY ; , 7 , SMITHJIEID-BARS , ST . JOHN-STREET , in any less quantity than two gallons .
