W. T. E. especially invites the attention of Ladies to his unique and
novel invention, by which an elegant design can be placed upon any Dyed
Silk, in White, Orange, Blue, Green, or Mauve, giving the Silk all the
appearance of the richest Brocades.
Court Journal, January 12th, 1867.—“Moire Antiques dyed and enamelled by
this process are truly astonishing in their sumptuous surface and
finish.”

THE
UNITED FOREIGN WINE GROWERS’ COMPY.
IN again presenting our Price List to the Public, we beg to thank those
patrons for the kind support they have hitherto bestowed upon us.
We are glad to be able to state that our expectations at the formation of
the Company, have been fully realized. The increasing demand for pure
and wholesome Wines at reasonable prices, has induced us to make
considerable alterations in our premises; our cellar accommodation now
extending under the adjoining houses will enable us to meet any demand
that may be made upon us, and we trust by continuing the practice of
buying direct from the Growers and paying Cash, to be in a position to
save the consumer at least 25 per cent. of the cost. We keep a large
stock of DRAUGHT and BOTTLED WINES here, as also at our Stores, 6 & 7,
Cooper’s Row, Crutched Friars, where we have upwards of 2,000 dozen of
Bottled Wines, of which we solicit an inspection; we also keep a large
stock of CASK and CASED WINES in the London and St Katherine’s Docks,
ready for Shipment for Exportation.
We have declined appointing Agents, as we should be obliged to allow 10
or 15 per cent. Commission, which would necessitate altering our
quotations. Quality when once appreciated, recommends itself, and we
rely upon our Wines to do for us what many of our contemporaries fly to,
by daily advertising.
