HIGH COURT OF AM - MALTY, NOV- 4. Extract from 1)r. MAIINING ' S Pamphlet, respecting adulterated Bread. "In many years practice of my. profession (says this ingenious physician), I -have never seen such havock among persons of delicate constitutions, such aggrava tion of complaints in the unhealthy, or so many dis orders among the robust and strong, without obvious causes, as within the last seven months. In grown per-1 sons chronic diseases have been exasperated, and acute brought on with the most violent symptoms, often in a strange, and altogether extraordinary way; and sudden death has snatched off the healthy after meals, in k manner new to the physician, and terrible to the survi vors. Infants have pined through tedious illnesses; and complaints, at other times as easy to remove, as they are hasty to come on in their tender frames, appear now obstinate and unconquerable. • As it is usual in the profession to keep a diary of cases which fall under our care, I have, with a degree of terror not known to me before, looked over those of the period just named; and as the cause has, not ap peared in the air or seasons, or any other usual occasion, I have considered all attendant circumstances. " The condition of bread atThis time is such -as may alarm the least attentive; and it has been growing to this unprecedented adulteration during the months now mentioned.—These exaggerations of symptoms, more frequent illnesses, and sudden deaths, have kept time with the adulteration of the bread. For this reason I have endeavoured to explain to the public the nature of that universal food ; to shew what bread is, and what it should be; and its effects when genuine, and when sophisticated. " The difference between bread made as it should be, and such as is now sold, is obvious to the senses; and a few rules will serve to shew when it is more, and when less adulterated. Pure bread is of a clean colour and mellow texture, the crust is brown, the crumb soft when moderately new, the smell is fresh, pleasant, and wholesome, and the taste sweet. On the contrary, the crumb of adulterated bread is harsh, and the crust pale: the smell is raw and disagreeable, and the taste has nothing of that sweetness; neither has the crumb at any time the due consistence, for it is made up of ingredients which will not mix with the yeast and water in manner that flour does. The paleness of the crust is one great article, and it depends upon this plain cause; flour when burnt becomes brown ; but the ingredients added to bread by those who adulterate it, remain white in the fire. Whiting, lime, alum, and ashes of bone::, are alike in this respect ; they will con tinue white when burnt; and therefore, the more there is of them in the bread, the paler will be the crust. There cannot be a more obvious way of discovering the fraud, than by comparing the crust of an honestly made loaf with that of one of the others. We shall lay down in the succeeding pages more certain methods of detecting frauds: but these are ob vious to the senses; and it there were no other, they are sufficient. " Every one knows what breed properly should be. It is made of flour ground fro% sound corn, with a little yeast for fermentation, a very little salt for relish, and as much water as ss ill bring it to a paste ; this, baked to a due hardness, is bread—the most wholesome of all foods. " The adulterations of it have begun eat ly ; but they are of late increased to .a degree that is altogether in tolerable; and, if not prevented, will entail diseases and misery on ourselves and our descendants. Two sets of men concur in them, millets and bakers; the former add all they can to increase the quantity of the flour, and improve its colour; and the latter, receiving it from them in this condition, charge it higher with new mixtures. The miller adulterates. it, because the ingre dients are cheap, and add to the quantity; and the baker, because he finds the same tempting profit. " If the miller could be pardoned, who used harm less ingredients to recover flour which he bought as good, but found otherwise ; or even if the baker, in time of scarcity, added, to increase the quantity, the meal of innocent vegetables, they might be in some degree ex cused : but the crime at present admits of no apology or mitigation. There is such an abundant quantity of corn in the kingdom, that an honest man must wonder where it is lodged, or how the price is kept up. We know the crops have been very good, and none has been lawfully exported or consumed by the distillers : there fore the plenty is absolute and certain, however it may be engrossed and withheld from the poor. The miller has his price in proportion to what he pays the en gros;er ; and the baker is allowed the same fair profit, whether he give more or less for it at the market. This cuts off all apology from these persons, as well as all necessity for the practice and should arouse the com passionate great against them. 41 The ingredients they add to flour are in general six :-1. Bean meal. 2. Chalk: 3. Whiting. 4. Slaked lime. 5. Alum ; and 6. Ashes of bones. All these may be discovered in the bread now commonly sold; and every miller and baker knows how to use them ; but let them from this time forward fear a discovery and proof: this may be made easily; and the laws ate open and severe. There is besides these a seventh ingredient used, of more mischievous quality than any of them, and not so easily discovered : the physician will know what I mean when I add that its quality is suffocation. To this I attribute the many sudden deaths after eating. I have separated this from bread within these few days, and may produce it before those who have authority to punish ; but shall be well excused from naming it, lest I teach those who, with sufficient wickedness, are defi cient in knowledge. All these ingredients answer the mealman's disho nest purpose, as they increase the quantity ; and they doubly answer the fraudulent bakers, for they not only make the less flour serve, but the burnt bones in parti cular take in more water than flour would; thus the bread is rendered heavier, and the baker boasts in his own mind that he has got the better of the Magistrate's care ; not considering the healthy and lives of his cus tomers. In consequence of this, bread, which has well been called the staff of life, becomes an arrow in the hand of death ; men pine with diseases from it, or perish instantly ; and infants are an universal sacrifice. " There was no ingredient originally added to flour for the making of bread that had a purgative quality; but the bakers, more attentive to the consequences of their unjust practice, than those who felt the effects of them, soon tound that chalk and alum, burnt bones, and the rest, gave an astringent quality to their bread.. I cannot favour these people so far as to think buma nity influenced them upon this occasion, for that would have made them forbear the practice. The fear of being discovered by this accident, set them upon their guard ; and this gave rise to a set of men more danger. ous to the public than themselves, called Bread Doctors. These, who had gained their knowledge, perhaps, from the sweepings of an apothecary's shop, or more probably behind the counter of a retail chemist, en gaged themselves to prevent all apparent ill effects, by adding. medicines of another quality. Hence jalap has become an ingredient in our daily food; and as those indifferent judges compute the quantity, or as the care. less servant to the baker mixes the ingredients, our bread becomes purgative or astringent, or approaches more or less to the middle quality. " That these ingredients are used in making bread, is certain, for I have separated all of them from it. The consequences are terrible, and it cannot be doubted but the Legislature will take the public cause into con sideration. The offence deserves no mercy, because it admits no excuse of accident; nor any temptation, ex cept the highwayman's cause, the plunder of the people. " If bread be browner than it ought, hard and crumbly, there is bean flour mixed with the wheat, and probably no other ingredient. This is, perhaps, the most desirable !mead that can be had in a time of general adulteration. " If it be white and crumbly, there is, probably, bean flour, whiting, and alum. " If it be white and heavy, there is reason to suspect slaked lime. _ _ _ " If it be white, brittle, and close, mouldering into crumbs as it is touched, probably there are slaked lime and bone ashes in it. " If it be heavy and brittle, whitinvis most likely to be the principal ingredient. There is bread so loaded with this, that it will sink like a stone in water. " If it be heavy, rough, ,and solid, there is reason to suspect jalap; for it is the quality of that drug to pre vent lightness. " These are the obvious marks of bad bread, and, according to these, the mistress of a family, the house keeper, or common servant may judge of it : but this, though a rational conjecture, is no more than a conjec ture. There are ways by which those who are accus tomed to the analysis of mixed bodies may more cer tainly discover the fraud. " The regular method to detect the fraud is this: cut off the crust from a loaf, and setting that aside, cut the crumb into very thin slices ; break these, but not- very small, and put them into a glass cucurbit, with a large quantity of water. ST,t this, without shaking, in a sand furnace, and let it staud, with a moderate warmth,four and twenty hours. The crumb of the bread will, in this time, soften in all its parts, and the ingredients will se parate from it. The alum will dissolve in the water, and may be extracted from it in the usual way. The, jalap, if any have been used, will swim upon the top in a coarse film, and the other ingredients, being heavy,' will sink quite to the bottom. These are the principal; and the pap being poured off, there will remain the, chalk, bone ashes, or whatsoever else was used, in a white powder at the bottom. " This is the best and most regular method of finding the deceit ; but as cucurbits and furnaces are not at hand in private families, there is a more familiar me:hod. "Let the crumb of a loaf be sliced as before directed, and put, with a great deal of water, into a large earthen pipkin. Let this be set over a very gentle fire, and kept A long time moderately hot; and the pap being poured off, the bone ashes, or other ingredients, will be found at the bottom." At Fermoy Sessions, under the Insurrection Act, on WeJnesda y se'n nigh t, Charles 31•Carthy Considine, a schoolmaster, from the county Clare, was sentenced to 'seven years' transportation, for serving illegal notices. . The Baronies of Kinnaler, Kerrycurthy, and Courcies, with the Liberties of Kinsale, have been relieved from the Insurrection Act by Proclamation, dated 23d ult. POPULATION OF GRBECE.—The actual ropulation of Greece, according to the most exact calculations, and taking a middle estimate between the different valua sinus which have been made, amount to four millions. Half live on terra firma; a million in the Noma and Negropont ; and a million in the isles. This popula tion, it is true, is composed of Greeks Turks, Albanians, Jews, and Franks; but it may be with certainty calcu- lated that the true Greeks compose three-quarters of it ; and in adding to them those who live in Asia, European Tut key, Russia, and Germany, the total population of the Greeks may still, without exaggeration, be rated at four millions. The population of ancient Greece was net more•numerous. Saturday night, an alarming fire broke out in a back shop in Canal -street, Edinburgh, in the immediate neighbourhood of Mr. Trotter's great premises, and very nearly adjoining the great coach factory of Messrs. Learmonth and Co. Fortunately the fire was confined to the premises in which it broke out, which were to tally consumed in a very short time. NEW WAY TO EXTINGUISH A CHIMNEY ON FIRE..—At a house in the county of Clare, a dinner was lately pre- paring for a considerable pai ty, when the chimney un fortunately took fire. The male part of the family, with the exception of one, was absent, and little assist ance could, in consequence, be obtained to extinguish the flames, which threatened to destroy not only the dinner, but the house also. Paddy's sagacity was put to the stretch. His resolution was taken in a moment. lle seized hold of a large Goose which was strutting about, mounted with him to the top of the flaming chimney, tied a cord round his neck, and dashed the goose, tail foremost, down the flaming furnace, and con tinued to draw him up and let him down alternately. The goose, as might have been expected, kicked up such a row in his new and unpleasant quarters, that, with the rapidity of his ascent and descent, and the operation of his wings as Icing as he could flap them, or he had wings to flap, quickly loosened and caused to descend all the remaining soot, and with it the flames in the vent, into the regions below, where the astonished in mates believed that the Devil had got into the vent, and where, though the dinner under preparation was spoiled by the sheets of soot and flame, the goose, by the time all was over, was nearly ready for the table ; Paddy thus, in a jiffy, restoring the dinner and preserving the house. Upon Lord NORTH'S retirement from office, he went down to Bath for the recovery of his health, and parti cularly for his sight, which was nearly lost. The con versation turning one day after dinner on the perishable condition of party zeal and political enmity, his Lordship thoroughly agreed in the principle; " and, as a proof of it," says he, " there is Colonel BARRE (who was as blind as his Lordship); no man has opposed me more in the House of Commons than he has, and I of course him ; and yet I can fairly answer for myself, and I dare say may equally answer for him, we should be vvy glad AO see one another at this moments". THE SHIP APOLLO. In this case an application was made on behalf of a part owner of the vessel in question, to refer his claim for compensation against the other partners, to the Court of Register and Merchants. It appeared that the ship, which was the joint property of three persons, named Tennant, Tatbot, and Nesbit, had been chartered by the Company to proceed to India, but in consequence of some difference between the owners, had been ar rested by process out of this Court, and prevented from proceeding to sea. She afterwards underwent some repairs, the expense of which was considerable, and eventually, after other disappointments, proceeded on a voyage to India, but on her return home was wrecked off the Cape of Good Hope. The party applying at tributed the loss to mismanagement, and complained of unnecessary expense having been incurred. The parties have been litigating the question for a long time, and offers of compromise had been more than once made, which were not accepted. Drs. LUSHINGToN and DODSON were in support of the application, and Drs. JENNER and JESSE ADAMS op. posed to it. The greater part of the day was consumed in read ing over the evidence in the case, which was filled with details containing no interest whatever, except to the parties concerned. ' THE SIX CLERKS.. In the course of the proceedings in the Court of Chancery on Monday, the following conversation oc• curred :—An affidavit having been handed to the LORD CHANCELLOR, his Lord hip asked, U What is the mean ing of 6 agent to a six•clerk; which I see there? What is his business?" Mr. Hart's client stated to his Lordship, that the agent was a per son who manages the business for the six-clerk. Loan CHANCELLOR.—And what does the six-clerk himself? Solicitor.—Attends the Master. LORD CHANCEI.I.OII.—Then he is entirely out of the business of his own office : he does nothing in it? Solicitor.—Nothing, soy Lord. The LORD CHANCELLOR (after a pause).—When I came into this Court, the six-clerks were the most effi cient solicitors in the Coutt of Chancery. Some of the most eo.iaetit solicitors were clerks of that class, and used to transact their business, and draw up minutes with such.ability, that we had law or no motions to vary minutes. Btu new the six-clerk abandons his business to a person who knows nothing at all about it. 'Tis no wonder, then, that delays have crept into the practice, which oe formetly knew nothing cf. How-. ever, before it proceeds fut 'her, I'll take care that soli citors in this Conic shall be obliged to transact their business in person. JOHN BRows, Esq. Inspector of Stamp Duties, who has been stationed in Cavan for the-last nine months in charge of the Stamp Office, has been ordered to Dublin, and replaced in that town by WILLIAM CA LCUTT, Esq. Inspector. Messrs. STANLEY, DEsisoN, and WORTLEY, Mem bers of the British Parliament, arrived at Quebec on the 19th of September, having passed through Upper and Lower Canada.— They would leave Quebec in about a week, on a tour through the Southern States, and pass a part of the winter at Washington. Sir JOHN DOWNIE, uhn, it will be remembered, was. imprisoned by the Cortes for his•Royalism, is appointed Inspector of the Militaty in the province of Andalusia.' He has arrived at Cadiz, where he will terniin only a' few days, as he has to visit more than 45 different places. He has posted up a proclamation, calling on the people to come forward and enrol themselves as Royalist volunteers, to protect their King and Religion. Monday, the 18th ult. at Wolverhampton, John Warner was convicted in the Mitigated penalty of 30s. John Holland and William •Walion, each 20s. John Taylor and George Parker, each 10s. for baiting a bull in the Beech-lanes, on the preceding Monday, under the late Act " to prevent the cruel and improper treatment of cattle." The offenders having promised never again to be guilty of the same conduct, and the object being the prevention rather than the punishment of the offence, the full penalties of .5/. each were miti gated to the above mentioned sums. PETRIFYING SPRING.-At Locker Mill, near Kilbar chan, a petrifying spring has been discovered, which has excited considerable attention in that neighbourhood. Several large and beautiful specimens of petrified mosses, mixed with hyndstongue and other vegetable substances, have been found upon the bank on which the water drops. This discovery may hereafter be ren dered of more consequence, when the hand of man has given nature some artificial assistance, as is the case in other places where similar springs exist, and where many curious productions of nature and art have been brought forward. There at present a Lady residing in Taunton, who recollects the time when there were but two umbrellas in Taunton—one belonging to a gentleman named Noble, and the other was the property of the Clergy man who officiated at St. Mary Magdalen, who, on proceeding to his duties on Sunday, hung it up in the porch, where it attracted the gaze, admiration, and' wonderment of the congregation. Str Ew USG THE LION.-At a visit by a party of Ladies and Gentlemen to the Menagerie, Exeter 'Change, the keeper, in his routine of duty, exclaimed, " Here, La dies and Gentlemen, is the famous lion brought up from a whelp, and presented to this Menagerie by the cele brated hartor, Mr. Kean; : ' and, after pausing for an in stant, and turning round to Mr. Kean, who happened to stand there, he vociferated, " and here, here, Ladies and Gentlemen, is Mr. Kean himself !" _ _ _ At Lawrence Park, four miles beyond Linlithgow, there is a piece of ground lower than the adjoining country,:and covered with moss, but tolerably dry, which the proprietor has opened with the view of forming a pond. About four feet under the surface a great num• ber of large trees have been discovered, which the coun try people have pronounced to be oak ; the wood is still fresh and fit for use; and there has also been found strewed upon the soil among the trees a vast quantity of nuts, conceived to be those of the hazel. They are quite empty, but have preserved their form perfectly. " I am very fond of a private theatre," said Lord Byron. " I remember myself and some friends at Cam bridge getting up a play; and that reminds me of a thing that happened, which was very provoking in it self, but very humorous in its consequences. On the day of representation one of the performers took it into his head to make an excuse, and his part was obliged to be read. Hobhouse came forward to apologise to the audience, and told them that a Mr. had de dined to perform his part, &c. The Gentleman was highly indignant at the a,' and had a great inclination to pick a quarrel with Scroope Davies, who replied, that he supposed Mr. wanted to be called • tke ' Mr. So and So. He ever after went by the name of the • DOnite 'back: =Capt. Medwin. - - _ q pir 2kol 4 • .1, , 11$4 POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. The driver of the hackney-coach, No. 498, was charged *hi driving against the gig of Mr. Walker, a Professional Gentleman .13y which he was thrown out, and two of his ribs brok en . T he de. . fondant pleaded that his horses suddenly became unmanageable • but it was proved that their restiveness was occasioned by his makit4 too free use of the whip. The Magistrate reprehended his conduct with just severity, fined hint 10s. and costs, and ordered him to find bail for the assault. W. games and ..4. Moser were again brought up, the fori nt ,. charged with stealing, the latter with receiving, various articles ef cutlery, belonging to Mr. Weiss, of the Strand. Since the 1.i4 examination, a boy in the employ of the prosecutor, ennfesitd h e had stolen variousartieles belonging to Mr. Weiss. He said, s , e ,, after he entered Mr. Weiss's service, he gave him X. 2 to Dar clothes, which be went to lay out with Moser, who asked Si vi i ! !;', bad anything to.sell? He answered in the negative; whc:: .11,.. rt replied, " Well, you may, and anything you bring, l'il Live %,,,, , good price for ; but be sure, if you are taken up, don't yo;, , i ' y ~ ,.I thing about me." Two or three days after. witness took hi, , new silk waistcoat of his master's, for which the prisoner gave Itirt Is. 6d. He subsequently took him four razors, fur which hr res ceived 4s. and the prisoner then entered into a regular bargain to give witness :, . 6d. for every four new razors he should brim, Witness tookhi m in all fifteen razors, a silver spoon, a snug-ta us , \ ee and a lancet ca , for which he received trifling sums. Th e razors were stated to worth 12s. each. Moser being "liked what he had to say, declared he never 1)(10 4 anything of the boy in his life. He was fully committed, and :he boy was ordered into confinement, to give evidence upon his triad, Kann was disclsarged for the want of evidence. MARY-LA-BONNE. Ann Sens o, servant to Mr. Abbott, butcher, of James•streetra s charged with assaulting George Skillicorn, a journeyman in her master's employ. It appeared that a quarrel had arisen in ti., e kitchen, when the defendant thrust at him with a knife and tar forks; the prongs of the latter entered his face, just below the Ict eye; the knife also inflicted a cut under the ear. The girl declared sbe was sorry for what she had done, and promised not to do tLe like again. The complainant said he would make it up, and as , he was his fellow servant, he would not he too hard. The Magistrate said he was very forbearing, and bound her over in her own recognislnces to keep the pace.—She having paid the expenses, left the office with George, evidently as good friends as if nothing had happened. MA RLBORMIGII-STREET. enafttnt or Ansoo.—James Hale,y, a green-grocer, who resides at the corner of Argyll-place and King-street, near the above office, was charged by Mr. Dundee, his landlord, with arson. It ap peared that un Monday morning last. about five o'clock, the pri soner's shop was discovered to be on fire. The watchman alarmed the neighbourhood, and the engines arrived—hut before the pre mises were entered, the prisoner jumped out of his parlour window. The shop-door was then broken open, and a fireman, named Smart, entered; he could perceive no flame; hut he observed the smoke to come up from the kitchen ; and, on his going below, he was still unable to find the fire; hut applying his am to a cupboard under the stairs, the flames rushed out, and in akw minutes threw the shop into a blase. With a plentiful supply of water, the fire was extinguished. On searching the shop they opened another cupboard over the kitchen stairs, and found it full of bundles of wood, which had caught fire. Mr. Dundee, the landlord, who resides in the next house, and who occupies the upper part of Haley's house, was apprehensive that, under the circumstances, the fire was not the effect of acci dent ; and having ascertained that the prisoner was insured in the Beacon for 3004 and that his property was not, at the utnio.t, worth more than 101. or 201. he applied at this office for a warrant to apprehend Haley, on suspicion of arson. Valentine was entrusted with the warrant, and immediately after apprehended the plisoner, at the Bricklayer's Arms, Suuthmolton-stre•.t. When questioned about the fire, he denied all knowledge of it, and said he was first alarmed by his daughter, who slept in the ►hip. lie said that his premises were so constructed, that Mr. Dundee could have constant access, and that as Mr. Dundee wished to ih.t him out, and, in fact, was going to eject him the following morninr, he (Mr. Dundee) might have been the incendiary. Ile accounted for insuring his property to the amount of 3001. by valuing his bu siness at 20C/. his property at SOL and he bad in the cupboard. that was destroyed 93/. in notes, which he had received principally from Lord Gleugall. The Magistrate remanded hint until Monday, to give time for further evidence to attend. Haley has a wife and six children. UNION HALL Thomas Wick, the auctioneer and appraiser, who stands charred with forgery, was brought up and finally examined. The o:lter clerks in the Bank of England attended. Tbey had paid si me person sovereigns fur the notes that had been received from Wes. ton's bank, but they were unable to say that the prisoner was dist individual. The name of " Simpson, 44, West -street, Pimlico," was indorsed, but that turned out to be a fictitious name and ad dress. Au application was made by the prisoner's solicitor, to ap propriate some portion of the 68 sovereigns found on him when apprehended, fur his wife's support. It was, however, intimated that her relatives were in good circumstances, arid the subject was not pressed. The prisoner was committed for the next Assizes, and the witnesses bound over to prosecute. DODD, the Comedian, was an ardent collector of old plays and tracts relating to the Drama. After his death, his valuable Dramatic Library was sold by Laiuu and SOTHEBY, in York -street, Covent-garden.— GEORGE STEIEVENB, openly, affected great friendship for DODD, but he was jealous of his literary and theatrical acquisitions. The writer of this paragraph was pre sent at EGERTON'S Auction Rooms, in Scotland-yard, on the last day's sale of WATSON REED'S library, when the celebrated Hamlet was purchased by KEMBLE, and the Romeo and Juliet of 1599 was bought by MALONE. On the same day, the Duke of ROXBURGHE purchased the splendid first edition of SHAKEPEARR'S works. At the close of the sale, STREVENS exclaimed to Nicol. and - MALONE, from Macbeth— " This is a day trifles our former knowints." When the quartos were coming on, Srszvabia sail to DODD, who was near him, " The hour of attack ap proaches."—" Yes (replie d the Comedian)—l think 1 . 11 take the road."
