Suainess BTotioei. SA€€H.4RIIVfi» FAHLBERG & LIST'S PATENT. REVOLUTION IN SUGAR MARKET. Dunkdin, 10th January 1868. We have pleasure in intimating that we have secured the SOLE AGENCY for New Zealand, *nd append some particulars about this new product from the Public aad Medical Press :— SACCHARINE. THE NEW SWEETENER. Made from Coal Tar, under Messrs Fahlbbbo and List's Patent, and which is 300 times sweeter than Sugar itself. During the past two months, many of the leading Pharmacists of Britain have given great attention to this article, owing to its value in medioine as a Dietetic Sweetener, it having been proved to have no effect upon diabetio and gouty subjects. Not only is SACCHARINE invaluable in all pharmacy, but also in all domestic uses, Fruit Preserving, Brewing, Wine Fortifying, Tobacco Sweetening, Mineral Waters, Syrups, Essences, ho., and every S»y fresh uses are developing. SACCHARINE v, in addition to its Sweetening Qualities, a Good 4>ntifleptio, and is unfermentable and uacrystallißable, hence \b has advantages possessed by no other products. For instance, in pharmacy in all cases where sugar is used only as a flavouring agent — as in Syrup of Phosphate of Iron, Easton's Syrup, &o. — in many of which the great difficulty has been to prevent crystallisation. In all disagreeable compounds, such as mixtures containing soda, salicylate, cascara sagrada, quinine, &0., it has great power in covering the objectionable tastes. IN DOMESTIC USES, for all purposes in which sugar is needed as a sweetener, it is invaluable, as it cannot possibly affeot the system, and may be used by everyone, I irrespective of age or condition: is inocuous in 80 grain doses daily, having no effect even on the ■ appetite or'digestion. Half to ligr will sweotoo a cup of tea or coffee. It retards fermentation where sufc»r would promote it. One of the I largest eonfeotioners in Ehplind is now using it in their lozenge factory. FRUIT PRESERVING. Bein£ an antiseptic, all that is necessary is to put the fruit in a jar or bottle, us|ng either a solution of Saccharine or' a sftlutibn of gjucose sweetened with Sacoharine, and the original character of the fruit is not damaged. JAM MAKING. It wi!J not be necessary to boil in order to make ifc keep, and no crystallisation .will take place, and the fruit instead of being all mashed up will be in the original favm. The cost will he about the same as using sugar, but no loss .will be caused by the soum which always rises under the present system. BREWING. This is important. A London firm has just settled a moaoply which will cover 40 niulion barrels of beef. From the fact of it being unfermentable, it cannot be used for making worts, but as a sweejjeqer or purifier after the beer is brewed. Beer sweetened with Saccharine will not fret, and is not affected by temperature. WINE FORTIFYING. Wine may be sweetened without fear of fomentation, and a saving at least of 50 per cent, effected in the amount of spirit neoesanr/ tb preserve the wine after the addition of the sweetener, if Sacoharine is used. Wine thus fortified can be imported into England at the lower rate of duty payable on French wines. IS is believed that if Sacoharine is used, tho addition of spirit will be o»ly required to keep the wine bright when diluted, and not as a preservative as at present. SACCHARINE being fully 300 times sweeter than Cane Sngar it is possible to detect the sweet taste whea one part is dissolved in 70,000 parts of distilled water— ri.e., one grain per gallon. It is e paringlf soluble in cold water, more so in warr, thoroughly so in spirits and in water contahii' g bicarbonate soda; and to meet the difficulty of insolubility in water, a soluble salt is being mr.d& to make it perfectly soluble in water. Consumers can either have the pure Saccharine or the Saccharine which contains 9082 per cent, of the pure. Our first supply of Saccharine is just to hand, and we are also now prepared to take indents from consumers. Although we have secured the absolute right of handling all importations of Saccharins to the colony, we have determined to make tb) terms satisfactory to buyers.
