in
conducting

any
minor
impositions,
in
the
sale
of
their
goods,
the
most
consummate
address
is
displayed.
In
submitting
1
,
as
1
have
done,
these
various
facts
to
the
notice,
and
for
the
benefit,
of
my
Readers,
it
has
by
no
means
been
my
intention
to
implicate
the
whole
of
any
class
of
Dealers,
for
the
delinquency
of
a
part,
nor
that
part,
any
further
than
supported
by
clear
and
distinct
evidence.
Such
evidence
I
have
afforded,
nor
can
this,
there-
fore,
be
said to
apply
to
any
Dealer,
whether
Re-
tail
and
Wholesale,
or
Wholesale
exclusively,
who,
although,
announcing
the
sale
of
Wines,
yet,
from
his
scale
of
prices,
may
fairly
be
allowed
the
sup-
position,
that
though,
perhaps,
not
of
the
finest
quality,
they
are
at
least
unadulterated.
Neither
can
it
be
permitted
to
refer
to
that
class,
known
bv
the
denomination
of
Publicans,
individuals,
who
possess
what
are
termed
Brewer's
houses,
and
than
whom,
(speaking
of
the
majority,)
no
description
of
men,
are
so
much
oppressed
and
borne
down,
1
may
say,
to
a
degree
that
would
almost
render
the
term
of
Brewer's
slaves,*
more
applicable
lo
them,
*
A

is
persuaded
by
one
of
the
Brewer's
myrmidons,
specially
employed
for
the
purpose,
to
take a
house
which
may
be
to
be
let,
the
value
of
a
lease
on
which,
he
is
informed,
is
about
20007.
Under
the
pros-
pect
of
the
great
advantages
represented
to
him,
and
the
induce-
ment
that
the
Brewer
will
accommodate
him,
by
advancing
the
re-
quisite
sum,
besides
what
he
can
spare
himself,
to
make
up
the
purchase
money,
the
man
is
prevailed
upon
to
take
it;
