JAMES PALMER AND CO.’S JAMAICA AND SCOTCH GINGER WINE. These delicious and wholesome wines have been long and extensively patronised by the nobility and gentry on account of their grateful and stimulating properties, and are pro¬ nounced by the faculty to be a safe and effective stomachic. They are used and strongly recommended by Dr. Turnbull, of 48, Russell-square, a gentleman distinguished for his emi¬ nence in the profession ; and a further testimonial of its superior quality is held by J. P. and Co., from John Mawdett, Esq., Her Majesty’s Yeoman of the Confectionary a Windsor Castle, who also ordered a supply. The Wines will be found to possess a superior flavour to similar wines made in other parts of the kingdom, being safe as well as suitable for persons of all ages. J. P. and Co. are importers of Scotch and Irish whiskey. 5, Three Kings-court, Lombard-street. Goods delivered free of expense to all parts of the Metropolis by our own conveyance. PRICE’S patent candles. It follows from the recent investigations of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, as reported in the Athenaeum of October 19, that the quan¬ tity of light furnished by one pound of Price’s Patent Candles requires for its produc¬ tion four pounds of ordinary tallow ones ; and, therefore, that the former, if at two shillings per lb., would be exactly as economical as the latter at sixpence per lb. Now Price’s Patent Candles are not sold at two shillings per lb., but at or under One Shilling per lb. They may be had of respectable Dealers throughout the kingdom, if care be taken to prevent any imitations being passed off as the Patent Candles ; and the Trade may obtain them wholesale from Edward Price and Co., Belmont, Vauxball, and Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell.
