ALES aid BARON A LLSoPP'SpAL E LIEBIG. Although not in the habit of replying to anonymous advertise ments,although the y cannot condescend to answer some of and A very discreditable nature to the parties concerned, Messrs. ALL SOPP and SONS a re compelled to take notice of an announcement bearing the name yoenf Pro f e ssor LIEBIG, to which an invidious pub- Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS regret this necessity, as they have licity has been gi v . ° reason to suppose that that ad ver ti se m en t has emanate d f r om an unworthy jealousy on the part of those who should rather have shown gratitude for the labour and expense Afav rs. ALLSOPP and SONS hare not spared to remove which ruinous prejudice impending the Pale and Bitter Ales of the tni °th a n e n r uh ylis try from the mistake of a French chemist. memr , ALLSOPP and SONS would now call the attention of the ablic to the following points : That the original letter of Baron LIEBIG IS addressed to Mr. E LY ALLSOPP, individually. That he therein Intimates that he had been applied to by Mr. HENRY ALLSOPP on the subject, and that his opinion had been requested. of course, for publication, by that gentleman. That he therein acknowledges the receipt of samples of ALL SOPrS PALE ALES, from the London bottlers, as well as other samples of the same, sent to him direct, by private friends. On these he, specifically, founds the opinion reported by hint to Mr. HENRY ALLSOPP in that letter—the general mention of the Bur ton brewers being incidental. And thus, then, the letter of Baron LIEBIG having been written for Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS, and sent to Mr. HENRY ALL SOP?, on the subject of Messrs. ALLSOP and SONS' ALES, they, having, as they had, Baron LIEBIG'S authority to do so, were fully entitled to publish it. Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS consider it not unnecessary to add, that their intercourse with Baron LIEBIG is of some duration ; they having frequently consulted the learned professor on certain pro cesses of brewing. And they are confident, therefore, that this last letter, anonymously issued, must either have been greatly muti lated previously to publication, or that it could only have been sent in reply to some wrong impression conveyed to that eminent man, in respect to an alleged undue publicity given to his opinions.

They illustrate again tb y of some radical system of re-organizatio _ndian Government. They show beyond the contradiction that the line of demarcation , be properly marked down between the va. iments of the public service —but, most between the civil and the military. If, almost tempts us to quote the Latin grammar in our disgust—the Ne sutor, et cetera, familiar to every school-boy, but surely for gotten, if, lacieed, it was ever learnt, by the politicals acting under the authority ofi the Board of Adminis tration. Happily, the terms of the East India Charter must, within a few months, be brought di rectly under the scrutiny of the Imperiel Adminis tration. It will then be decided by our Legis lators—after a careful examination of the evidence submitted to them through the medium of an authoritative Commission—whether some means cannot be devised whereby the adminis trative machinery of Hindostan could be re -arranged upon some more judicious principle, so as to secure the commanding officers of the Anglo-Indian army from the unfortunate, and too often disastrous, inter ference of civilians in no way qualified to direct the movements of a campaign. If CLIVE had been perpetually interfered with by the politicals , ls wouldo many (after he hadobtaviincetodritehse, w com e mandof the wonder, have followed the " foughten field" of Plessey ? If HASTINGS had au th o rized i h l is itar p y oliotffiicoae l reappointedsubordinatesto to interpose between the military conduct the troops of the Company, would our arms have proved so triumphant during the course of his ever-memorable and (we can add now without fear of exciting the heartburning of party virulence) his glorious a dministration ? Wonderfully different were the views entertained upon this subject, as to the pro priety of allowing politicians to interfere with the military arrangements of commanders-in-chief—as evidenced in the instance of Sir HE NRY (now Viscount) HARDI NGE w h en i n supreme authority in the Governor-General's palace at Calcutta. So sensib p le roo w e a e s d t in ha gs that eminentofthis man of the folly of tolera tingcherecter that—although himself one of the most illustrious among the lieute nants of WELLINGTON, although covered with re nown by his many achievements as a general officer, and invested with supreme power by his position at the head of the Administrative Council of Calcutta—he waived his many claims for precedence, and volun tarily placed himself under the command of Sir HARRY (now the Lord Viscount) GOUGH, the Com mander-in-Chief of the British forces in Hindus tan. In this manner were fought the great battles of Sobraon and Goojerat, as well as the fierce and sanguinary struggles at Itamnugger and Chillianwallah. The soldier was then not invariably at the beck of the civilian. Had it been thus always with Sir CHARLES NAPIER during the course of his renowned advance into Scinde, had the energies of that redoubtable conqueror been perpetually hampered by the inter posing quibbles and objections of the politicals, we question if his judgment would have been left suffi ciently serene to guide his dauntless courage and his incomparable tactics to the achievement of his two most splendid victories at Meanee and Hyderabad. Yet, throughout the history of our great and rapid conquests in the northern and the southern, in the east ern and the western provinces of Hindostan—the his torian of British rule in the East has had to lament the incidental interposition here and there of the civilians arrogating to themselves an authority , superior to that of the commanders-in-chief. In stances of this kind, almost countless, might be culled from the annals of our rule in India, from the paps of Chum and MILL, as well as from all the miscellaneous writing referring to our Oriental Government. Parliament will do well to make a "note of this" as carefully as Captain CUTTLE, during the course of the inquiry that must take place in reference to the removal of the powers accorded to the Board of Administration at Calcutta, and to the Court of Directors in Leadenhall-street, by the supreme will of her Britannic MAJESTY'S Government. interested ..cnn sd e rt d n d docu ment. earnestly invite the attention of our reade rs, more e li s e p r e ie c s ia , ll i y a a o n f those ru in ct a iv n e y an de d gr w ee ell prejudice. Their desire was to remove thi s: cry i ng subject calmly and dispassionately , without favour or evil, and, in order to do so with the least possible delay, they largely availed themselves of tho labours of their predecessors in similar inquirios—more especially of the S o ut h Shields Committee, of whom they speak in terms of well•merited app ro b a ti on. They speak of the safety lamp o f Sir II UMPHREY Davy, which was introduced in the year 1.815, and dedicated to the public by the great chemist, who, with a disinter es t e d ness b eyond all praise, gratuitously surrendered what might be the source of immense and almost boundless riches. The effect of that discovery was, as de scribed by a competent witness, "to operate as a complete renovator to many collieries, which were then in a state of exhaustion." But t.ro much confi dence was placed in this valuable invention. An act of common carelessness by a single 'individual of the hundreds engaged, might cause the destruction of all the others ; and even without the fault of any person, circumstances might arise to deprive it of its effici ency, as, for instance, if placed in a current of air. It does not strike at the root of the evil, and perhaps may have led to greater mischief, by diverting the attention of coal proprietors and their overlookers from that " better ventilation" which, according to the Committee, is " the improvement most generally needed and most to be aimed at"—the only true and secure means for prevention of explosions. How then to produce and certainly keep up this improved ven tilation, is the great desideratum, and that is the problem to the solution whereof attention is chiefly to be directed. The Committee, under these conditions of the question, speedily arrive at the conclusion that " any system of ventilation depending on complicated ma chinery, is unadvisable, since, under any disarrange ment, or fracture of its parts, the ventilation is stopped, or becomes less efficient ;" and as a corollary thereto, " that the two systems, which alone can be considered as rival powers, are the furnace and the steam jet." The first proposition appears almost self evident, and if so, it follows as a natural consequence that the agency of man, the most complicated machine of any, and on which the least dependence could be placed —as a drowsy fit, or a glass too much, m ight defeat the most prudent regulations and best devised precautions—should, as far as practicable, be dispensed with. Of course it must, to a certain extent, be re sorted to, but the object is to do so to the least possible degree. After a careful considera tion, then, of the rival systems, they avo w a decided preference for the steam jet, to the powers of which " there appears to be no practical limit. This would command a current of air which would not only pre ven t th e poss ib ility of explos i ons , but would preserve the h ea lth o f t h e m i ners f ro m a con dition of atmosphere which has hitherto rendered them a short-lived race—dying long before the ordinary limits of human existence. With such advantages, it is almost unnecessary to allude to others of less importance ; the Committee, however, express their decided and unanimous opinion that " the steam jet is (not only) the most powerful, but also the i least expensive m e th o d f or th e ven til a ti o n of mines. Why, then, should its introduction not be immedi ately enforced in every colliery ? it is of course desira ble to avoid any undue interference with private pro perty, but the necessity of such interference has re peatedly been recognised and is constantly acted on. Omnibus and cab drivers are placed under control for the public benefit; we cannot build on our own land in a metropolitan street without the sanction of the sur veyor of highways. Above all, we are not allowed to carry on a noxious trade that may prove prejudi cial to the health or to the comforts of our neighbours. Why, then, should not the principle be extended, where not only the health of tens of thousands of our fellow-subjects, but their very lives are concerned— where they not only may be subjected to a fearful and sudden death, but where no less than one thousand miners actually perish annually ? Away, then, with the ridiculous squeamishness that has hitherto pre vented the necessary legislation. Let the various recommendations of the Committee be carried into practical operation, and the working of every mine be stopped which is not provided with " the steam jet," the invaluable contribution of Mr. GOLDS WORTHY GURNEY, to the security of the miners, and, as a natural consequence, to the prosperity of the colliery proprietors. There is no branch of industry productive of more important results, and having a more direct operation on the national prosperity than that engaged in the management and working of our numerous collieries. The " black diamond " is indeed the chief source 11 our national wealth and the unparalleled elasticity of our national resources. Without it we should hold a very different position in the scale of nations from that now occupied. The inventions of WATT and ARKWRIGIIT would be comparatively worthleas. THE.FRENCH. REPUBLIC.

The Duke of CAIaRIDGE left Hanover on the 26th en route to Berlin. It is reported in the Court circles at Brunswick, that the reigning Duke intends to a bdicate. The King of SWEDEN is at present staying at Zurich, under the name of Count TuLnert. The Post-Ampt Gazette of Frankfort states that in the provinces of A us t r i a w h ere t h e state of siege is maintained the p ress is placed under the surveillance of the civil authorities. The forced currency of 3 per cent. Treasury bonds has been removed. A letter from Munich states that the King of BAVARIA will in November visit Spain, and remain absent from Bavaria more than three months. The New Gazette of the Oder mentions that during the journey of the Emperor of AUSTRIA he promised the most liberal rewards to any one who should find the Crown o f Hungary, which disappeared in the re volution. His MAJESTY has promised a million of florins to three magnates who are suspected of being in correspond ence w i th KossuTn i f they should suc ceed in discovering the Crown. The clergy have called on their flocks to give all the inf o r ma ti on in their power on this subject.

The Emperor of Russia has authorised the forma tion of a company which proposes to raise sunken vessels end sell them, as a remuneration for its La bours. Its operations will extend from the south shore of the Gulf of Finland, at Nerve, as far as the Baltic Sea, in the direction of Polangen. The cholera is greatly on the decline in Warsaw, and a strong confirmation of this is the cholera list of Monday, the 23.1. Experience has hitherto proved that the epidemic has always had the largest number of victims on a Monday, as the people have no idea of restricting themselve s in their Sunday's festivities. The list was—attacked, 226 ; di ed 120 ; recovered, 205 ; remaining under treatment, 977. Sixty young men belonging to the Polish nobility have voluntarily offered to enter the Russian army as ofilzers : many of them, by desire of the EMPEILGR, have been entered in the regiment of the Guards. Some of the old Polish nobility are greatly distressed at this event. THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT AND TIIE ENGLISH PREsS.—A letter of caution has been sent to the Paris correspondent of the Morning Advertiser, by it will be seen that LI. Dumourari's denuncia tion which extends to articles written in France, simply ma y . contain "fal se which and calumnious" state ments tending "to disturb or d er an d pu bli c tran quillity." The notice is a s f o ll ows : " " Paris, Au g . 28. Monsieur,:—You are aware that the'French Gover ment has the right to expel f rom its territory foreigners of an y nation whatsoever, who may endeavour, by their r writings or maLoeuv -.s, to disturb order an d pu bli c tran quillity. The Administration of Gener a l P o l ice d oes not wish to avail itself of this right, exce pti ng upon ser i ous grounds. Nor does it desir e to hold the correspondents of foreijournals .re.sponsddc gn for articles of discrssion or rectation.published by such journals ; but it is political app resolved not to permit that the transmission of the falsest information, such as is openly and daily forwarded by cer tain correspondents, shall remain unpunished. In fact, it could not possibly be per m it te d that a man who enjoys th e protection accorded by the Government to all per sons who dwell in Fra nce shall profit by the advantages of our laws, without b eing forced to submit to the obli gations which theyimpos e . A letter, however, addressd to the Morning Advertiser, of which you are the corres pondent, dated Monday, the 23d of August, and pub lished by that paper on Wednesday the 25th, contains the most false and most calumnious assertions aga i nst the French A dminis tration. It is, therefor® to inform , m dut you, that if si mi l ar correspondence should be again addressed to the Morning Advertiser, the law which gives to the Government the right to e xpe l foreigners will be immediately applied.—l h ave the honour, Sir, to salute y ou, Di rector o f the Press Depart ment, C.

The place of representation was an exceedin g l y h andsome concert hall, the Ly ceum, which. was first opened on this occasion. Notwithsta ndin g that it was ma r k et night, which prevented hundreds from being. present, th e audience was one of the largest and most fas h ionable that h as attended a dramatic representation in this aorongh. The pieces o ff ered were the comedy of No t so B ad as i ce S eem, and M r . Night ingale's Diary, and the reception of the _company was very enthusiastic, Char l es Dickens, Mark Lemon, and Charles 1 itnight, were especially cheered as they appeared on the stage. The proceeds of the house it was calculated would amount to about 3001. TH E CROSBY HALL EVENING CLASSES, —On Thursday, the lecturers, committee, and students connected with the evening classes at Crosby Hall, Bishopsgate, took an excursion, by special tra i n , from the E astern Counti es a 1 ten t o'clock, an d rea ched the Rye House two o'cl oc k a cold collation was served in the dining-hall The chair was occupied by the Rev. F. Statham, in the ab sence of the Lord Mayor. It is stated that within the last four years above 2,000 young men of London had joined the classes, the funds of which were in a prosperous state, and an excellent library is in course o f accumul ation. THEATRICAL ON DITS.—We believe that Mr. nuckstone will be lessee of the Haymarket, Mr. Webster having withdrawn from that establishment to confine himself entirely to the Adelphi, where, without disturbing the reign of Madame Celeste, he will yet exercise his abilities as a principal and an actor. Of course, Mr. Buckstone—host as he is, and host as he will be,in himself—will cause many new features to appear in the Haymarket corps, if he do not altogether reconstruct it, or form a new one. The commit tee of Drury-lane have sent for Mr. Webster, and invited him to manage for them, or take for himself, that " National Theatre," which has proved so disastrous to others; but all is, as yet, in embryo. We are happy to say that Viscountess Palmerston is fast advancing t a convalescence, all dangerous symptoms having disappeared. AVGU ST 31, Railways, Cent.

The merchant-ship St. Vincent, arrived from Syd ney, only brings April dates, bat has 1,452 ounces of gold on board. Accounts from Canada inform us of a Go vernment proclamation having been issued, no- tifying that the various sections of the great trunk railway are at the disposal of ca pitalists, consequently the idea of a guarantee from the mother country has been abandoned. The line i s to p►'oceed from some point on the eastern boundary line of Canada to St. Joseph do la Pointe Levi, from thence' to Richmond to join the Montreal and Portland road; t,"om Montreal to Kingston, Kingston to Picton, Picton to Toronto, Toronto to Hamilton, and Hamilton to Port Sarnia. Companies are already at work on some portions of these railways. The spread of cholera on the continent is occasioning a renewal of the vexatious, though, perhaps, necessary quarantine regulations. The Swedish Government has declared the Danish, Prussian, and the Russian Baltic ports infected. The East Indian commercial letters are the worst re ceived for some time, especially from Calcutta, and will act injuriously, no doubt, upon the Manchester market. The English Stocks are very firm this morning, and there have been no bargains in Consols under par, either for Money or Time, although the transactions are very limited.
