The issue of the Daily News (Liberal)
during the war of 1870-71 sometimes
exceeded 300,000 copies ; it
ages 230,000. The London Times spends
more than $500,900 for its paper, and
for its printing ink, $20,000. TCach ad
vertising colunie in this journal, aud it
rages nine pages of them, brings in
a revenue of $35,000. The outlay in
in foreign correspondence amounts to
at least $40,000 per annum. The circu
lation varies with the exciting .intelli

about 200,000, and occasionally consid
erably higher. No pains or expense is

There is a curious story about
wines which an.- « \tcnii\c l v advertised nowa
days, and have only recently been put upon
the market. Dr. Underhill, the well-known
grape-grower of Croton Point, died in 1871.
Some of his heirs entertained temperance
views of'stich extreme- kind, that tbiy were
unwilling to nllöw the stock of wines then on
hand to- 6e sold or any more to be made.
The giftpcs havu sometimes been sent 1a
mark#, and sometimes left to decay upon
the vinès. It is only now that the other heim
have succeeded in arranging for a settlement
of the estate and the sale of the wines on
hand. Among these is n wine of the vintage
of 1864, described as a "Sweet Union Port,"
but suggesting the Imperial Tokay
than any other European wine, and being
wholly unlike any other wine of American
growth. Its purity, age and mcllowne
remarkable, and both physicians nr.d wine
fanciers have a special interest in it as the
oldest native wine row accessible '
siderablu r.uamitv. The whole stock isJn the
hands of tlie well-known wholesale grocery
of the Thurbers.— N. Y. Trihum,

Nov. iç, jfrff.
The above speaks for itself, but we would
add that this is the pure juice of the grape,
neither drugged, liquored nor watered; that it
has been ripened mid mellowed by age, and
for medicinal or sacramental purposes it is
unsurpassed. It can be obtained from most
of the leading Druggists throughout the
United States, and at wholesale from the
undersigned, who will forward descriptive .
pamphlet, free of charge, on application.
