The Melbourne Argus congratulates the total abstainers of that rather "drouthy" city on the introduction by a local firm of a new temperance drink called gingerade. It sayß : " It differs from the familiar gingerbeer in being an terated instead of a fermented drink, and has much greater staying powers ; whereas gingerbeer is apt to ferment in the bottles, and always deposits solid particles if kept for any length of time, the gingerade remains clear and bright for several months.. Samples of it sent out from England arrived here in unexceptionable coudition. It is pellucid, sparkling, and tastes hot in the mouth. Tt may safely be recommended to Good Templars as a liquor well calculated to mitigate the rigor of the most fanatical teetotalism. ••'■■■• - • ■ - a
