The prominence given to the name of Baron Liebig in pla-ards and afivertisernents will have created the impression that he • coveted a celebrity inconsistent with' the dignity of his station in the. scientific world. Having learned that he had attained such undesirable no toriety, Baron Liebig has requested the publication of the following letter, with the view of informing the public of the motives which dictated his communication to Mr. Allsopp • "The question of adulteration hp - strychnine, which has been taken up seriously in England, seemed to me of great importance, • and I thought to do some good by,a'cling to denconstrate the error. If I wished to associate with any individual brewery my remarks on the alleged adulteration of bitter beer with strychnine, it would have been natural to have gnentioned ario'her brewery, in which alone , and not in Mr. AllsoWs, I was engaged in investigating the Burton mode of brewing : and it was also in that other brewery that the Bavarian brewers acquired all the instruction they obtained at Bur ton. The admiration I eg.presSed .of this beverage in my .letter to Mr. Allsopp is advertised iri such a manner as to lead to the inference that my praise was e.xclasively confined to Mr. Alliopp's beer; ibis was not the case,tay` remarks retina to that class of beer. .

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from iriegularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature ldecay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on expertepee gained in the ,most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, , himself one of the few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate Cure are described in detail. _The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical . and adademlc honours athome and abroad; is in itself a sufficient guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and Inviolable secrecy which are so requisite In the treatment of these cases. p u blished by the Author, and may be had of J.

On Saturday t t h h v eC io om ori mi a s , sioners appointed for disaffarestin under the Act 14th and 15 of Ilainault, is the county of Essex, havin g g concluded Forest their investigation, delivered their final award toeo d the va rious claimants for compensation, &c. It will be m bered that. in consequence of progressive encroac r h e m w e e nte upon the Crown prop er ty in lasses, an infinit e num b er of actions were commenced by the Attorney-General, but before going to trial certain disclosures were made of malversution on the part of some of the officials in trusted with the royal demesnes in other parts of the kingdom, the proceedings were suspended, and eventu ally; the Legislature having been satisfied that the timber grown in these vast wildernesses was not avail able for ship-building, two Bills were ptosed, dist& foresting Hainault and the 'New Forest by command of her Majesty. The Commissioners appointed were di rected to inquire into all claims in• or upon the soil, timber, Sze., more especially as to certain rights of common, established by ancient usage. The Act also directed that the deer should be removed or destroyed with all convenient speed. and that the forest reeves (rangers) should be forthwith discharged. According to the evidence brought before the Commissioners, it ap pears that, as regards Liaintiult, it has been cnstowary, from time immemorial, to allow every poor widow not re ceiving parochial relief, residing in the parishes of Bark ing and Dagenham (which lie within the forest); one load of wood on Enater Monday, or, in lieu thereof, Bs. in money to those who could not procure a team to carry Om . ) wood on that day. In respect of this right the Commissioners have awarded, as compensation, 4161,135. 101. to the parish of Barking, nod 831. 6,. Bd. to Dagen ham parish, such sums to be distributed among those whose claims may have been sistisfactorily established. The only claimant on the soil of any importance.was Sir Charles Hulse, Bart., of Breamore-heuse; Southampton, who, in the character of Lord of the Manor of Barking, set up a right to a portion of the forest called the King's Woods. This cluasxa was at the time disputed, but was Sir C. Ilulso to sobsFquently recognised so as to entitle compensation.

LONDON AND BLACKWALL. The half-yearly enekting ofthia company' was held yesterday at the London Tavern ;*Mr. J. N. Daniell in the chair. , The report, an abstract of which bee appeared in The Sun, was taken 'as read. The CHAIRMAN, in indviug - the edoption of the re port, sa id ties . affairs of the company were in nearly the same position as when the shareholders last met, a short time ago. They were going on in the old way, progressing steadily and well; they had had RR inere;isq of traffic -and a diminution of expenditure, and he belieierl that every exertion had been made to carry out thobest interests of the company. They had hoped to have had the goodslraffic on their line at this time, but eircurnstancea over which they bad tio control h.ad delayed the cempletion of the Hay don-square 'junction line; which was to have Leen finished in Junt. last. The workmen had not been able to COmelete the warehouses, without which it evauld httiie been irselet's to' open the junction line. They Weie, however, assured . .that the line and ware houses would be ready thilecemniodate the goods traffic of the - Linden and North-Western Company.on the Ist of October.. He had -little doubt -the Whole would be ready fe l t traffic before the end of October neat. It was hoped it 'would be then open, as that was the, time of year when'their passenger traffic commenced to tall off, and the goods traffic then com ing on would - aid their dividend Materially. The dividend for the first half of the year was 'generally less than for the second half, and although:at the cor responding period of 1:851 tbsly had a dividead of2s. per share, that did not arise -entirely from traffic, for 3,0001. of it consisted of profit-on.:the sale of shares. The dividsind-ou the, present --occasion was fro:n the net earnings of the line. He had , trusted that the amount would. h av e been further:increased . by the NOrth-Western - goods traffic, 'but no doubt they would 'derive some benefit from. that traffic in the current half-year ; end so soon as the terminus was coMpleted for the accoinniiidation of the Eastern Counties trains at Fenchurch. street they would re ceive a considerable, addition- to their traffic. With regard to the Tilbury ad 'Southend line, the Black well Company wale defended and guarded in every way from loss of the Gravesend traffic. He believed the addition to their ttaffid Nisi that source would be very great. Eiery exertion would be made by the contractors to open the line to Tilbury, opposite Graves end, by the Ist of May next. The extension to Southend would be opened in about twelve months from the present time, 'al - 02014h the time sti pulated was eighteen months. .So that their present prospect veas'_ very - good. He might be allowed to mention that the directors were firmly of opinion that their line, as one of five miles in length only, could never - be a payieg line in itself, and it was for this -Brian that they. had, with the Bandied and support of the proprietors, altered the system of working the railway, and done other things with a view to advance the interests of the company and to cprthect the line with other railways. Their anticipations With regard to dividends had long been deferred, but they were now on the eve of being realised. The exertions of , tbe directors in promoting the welfare of the Undertaking _bud been as zealous as poisible, and he believed the shareholder's generally were satisfied with thole exertions : but that. they had not given universal satisfaction was. to be seen from a letter which appeared in the Tz:nes of that morning, under the signature of " A Poor Debtor."—(Lauga ter) The writer of that letter impugned the conduct of the directors, who were charged with wasting large sums of money in . the construction of a branch to ',Ha.yeion-square, and in building en extravagant terminus at ,Penchurch-street; while the shareholders were Obliged fo put up with a dividend of 2se per share. 'New he thought the shareholders would agree with hitiain saying that a person writing to a piper like- the, Times should, ,before he attempted • to Ceneiireiet4hintiany, at :least take the trouble of investigating the truth of the charges he thought proper to bring against them.—(Hear, hear.) - The writer of the letter to which ho referred *might be a " poor debtor," but he was evidently much poorer in intellect and information. The. " Poor. Debtor's" charge was, that the company had agreed to spend half-a-million of money upon the HaydOn4quare brinch. The fact was that the branch was to cost 75,0001., not one farthing of which would come out of the pockets of the. Blackwell Campany—(Hear)— and not only would it not cost the proprietors any thing, but the latter would reap a. very considerable advantage from the additional traffic it would bring on the line when constructed.—(Hear.) With regard to the 'Fenchureh-street terminus, , the - proprietors were thoroughly ecquainted with the feet that that terminus was scarcely large enough for the present traffic, and , it must, of course, be satis factory to them to know that the enlargement was not to be made with their money ; so that, in s hort, these excr es c en ce s, _w hic h the writer in t h e Times charged', them with haiing undertaken a t an enormo us e xp ense, would : not cost the coinpanything, while the outlay would greatly increase the passenger traffic, and; consequently add to the receipts of the railway.—(Hear.) -A good in terest was guaranteed on the outlay at the terminus in Fenchurch-street .by the Eastern Ceunties Com pany, and there could be no_ doubt that the latter company saw clearly they would derive considerable advantage f r om the extra accommodation it would' afford them for their passenger traffic. H e concluded bimoving the adcption of the report. Mr. Hero seconded the motion. Mr. PALLISER entered into some, statistics with a view ,to show that the company carried passengers on the line for less thanjd. each. He arrived at this periods, and amount umr o t taking k i g andatnh number of - in the passengersih6dicffaerrreiend at one ceintlae per r i e o c d ei w pt i s th coofnrcelcuesiiootns fromncuogimPbaerrinegartri he ed r a e t ce o i t p la t e s r and numbers. • that 7 The CHAIRMAN explained . the e result of Mr. Palliser's calculations were erroneous, inasmuch as he compared the gross receipts nod the number of passengers of the Dock Junction line included in the returns with the net receipts and number of passen gers included is the returns at another p er i o d, in which can the receipts per passenger would appear to be mach less than it really Was ;. and, so far from carrying passengers for less than id. there were none carried under a mere fraction less than Id. ; and that, so far from having received less money, they had re ceived 3,0001. more during the past half-year than at any corresponding period. The Blackwell Railway had boats on one side of it and omnibuses on the other, and the directors were obliged to do the best they could to protect the interests of the company. The sum paid by passengers for single tickets on'the railway averaged 4.307 d. each ; for return tickets, 3.154 d. each ; and to and from thetitearn boats, 3.497 d. each; so that the steamboat passengers paid more than the return-tickets on the railway. Mr. PALLISER contended that the steam-boats had taken away their dividend. . The Orteramex could not help Mr. Palliser, if be chose to take that view of the Case, which was nut the fact A . PR said they had no right to complain as the traffic from the steam-boats returned more per: pas senger that the return traffic on the railway. A discussion'then ensue d respecting the interest paid on the borrtiwed money, in the course of which it was stated tha. it had been reduced from 5 p er can!. to 41 and 41 per cent., and that they always adverti4at for leans arid' had found few individuals who were willing-to lend•their money at 4 per cent. for so long a period as five or seven years. Th ey had borrowed money fr om the Bank of England at 41' per cent. In•answer to a q uestion it was stated that they estimated the Gra vesend traffic at between 8,0001. and 9,0001 . a - year , w hic h was not to be less when the Tilbury line was opened from traffic. . The report Was then adopted.

Mr. J. CATT"LEY said, that whatever the amount of additional capital might be," it would be allotted rateably among the shareholders, and the directors would endeavour to obtain the best terms they could from , the East India Conipany for the proprietors when the tithe came for raising the additional capital. The meeting then separated. WEST DURHAM. The annual meeting of this company was held at Darlington on Monday ; Mr. N. Plews presided. The CHAIRMAN stated that, pursuant to the reso lutions of the last year's meeting, he and Mr. Leech man had succeeded in arranging with the bulk of the creditors of,the company; and in a short time it was hoped they would be able to do so with the remainder. but no dividend could be paid "till that was effected. Considerable expenses had been incurred during the past year on the line, in extensive repairs of the sta tionary engine at Todhills, and in the erection of a pumping engine. They had also had to provide a new wire rope,. and to retay the rails and Bleepers on the incline. The traffic was satisfactory, and if the unsettled claims against the company were arranged. it was hoped that something would be got out of this unfortunate concern. _ The accounts were then laid before the meeting and passed. The Cireiamals moved that Mr. James Pulleine and Mr. John Buckton be 'elected directors in the place of Messrs. J. Kipling and A. - Murray, de ceased. _ _ The motion was seconded by Mr. T. E.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on Monday, at Dublin: Tbe report of the directors stated that works of the railway have be& re-opened, and are now being pro secuted to Dundrum, together with the extension line to Bray, with considerable spirit, and the reputation of the contractor was a sure guarantee of the speedy and successful completion of the road. A resolution, among others, was passed, authorising the directors to re-issue, sell, or otherwise dispose of all forfeited shares on such terms as would' (in their judgment) be most advantageous for the interest of the company, and insure the highest valve to be obtained for the same. T.II7F.P.POOL, CROSBY, AND 60111IIPORT. The half-yearly meeting of proprietors was held yesterday at Liverpool, Mr. H. H orn b v in the chair. The report stated that the gross rece ipts for the past half-year exceeded those o f th e cor responding period of 1851 by 1,3901., or an i ncrease o f 12,52 per cent. The available . balance, after deducting t oll, working, and interest charg es , amounts to 4,37 11 . , from which the directors recommend the payment of a dividend at the rate of 2 per cen t. f or th e half-year, clear of income-tax, leaving a . balance to carry for ward of 3371. The double line w ill . b e opene d through by the end of September, which will marially.facili tate the trcffic arrangements. The receipts on capital account to the 30th o f June amounted to 258,3151., and the expenses to 250 001 " leaving a balance of 4,015/. The revenue account for the half-year amounted to 13,003/, an d the ex penditure to 9,5471., leaving a balance of 4,37 1 1, The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the re port, congratulated the shiareholders on the incre ase He thought h e could of the tra ffi c, w hich he had every reaso n to belie ve would go on rapidly increasing.

In reply to a Shareholder, ' he observed that about 1,400/. worth of land at Waterloo had been sold. The capital account w as expected to b e c losed in another year. The estim a t e of the extens i o n o f the double line to Southampto n was about 1 5 , 000/. more than had already been paid. Wh en that Was m et ' there were no, other great expenses.

The; order of the Vice-Chancellor's , which directed 4the Great Northerri Company tnaccotint fOr all traffic 'belonging to them Which might t pass over the lines of th e company, is still in force. In the matter of tlie" Wakefield and Snottingley stations, an award has been made, which has determined the cost of the former to be 68,3541., and of the latter to be 11,516/. ; or, together, 79,8711. A moiety of this amount is chargeable by agreement to the Great Northern Rail way Company. The negotiations for an amalgama tion with the :East Lancashire Company having failed, the attention of the boards of both companies is being directed to the propriety of concluding a traffic agreement, by which several of the many ad vantages which would 'have resulted from the first named measure may be secured at places and in dis- Wets which are served in common by both companies. The capital account shows that 11,855,7371; had been received, and 11,812,2221. expended, leaving a balance of 43,515 1 . The revenue amount for the half-year ending the 30th of June shows that 432,6671. had been received, and'191,622/. expended, including 7,944/• rates and taxes, and 5,1311.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PROMOTION • Lieutenant John Knapmati '(1809), has been pro moted to the rank of commander on the reserved half-pay list.

We understand that the Rosamond, 6, steam sloop, im the West Indies, has been ordered home immedietely, in consequence of the great amount of sickness amongst her crew. This vessel, as . the Eclair, is known as the "ill-fated," and as the Rosa mond, when at the Cape, she was so sickly that she was ordered to th e Mediterranean station, and now in the West Indies the same fatality attaches •to her : there must, therefore, be some radical defect in her construction, as we insisted when she returned home as the Eclair, with scarcely an officer or man alive in her. It is right to remember, also, that the In flexible steam-sloop, just returned, from the West Indies, WO as sickly as the Rosamond when on the same station. s ued their report and state ment of accounts to be su bmitted to t The directors haveja st is the a h areholders on Saturday next.

Bat, es no difficulty is now expe rienced by the , company in obtaining money. on debenture at greatly, reduced rates, an important saving will be effected in the annual charge for in terest, as loans from time to time fall in, to be paid off or renewed. Having thus been enabled to raise so large a sum nn such favourable terms, and to provide the means of the half-yearly expenditure on capital account, the directors have 'postponed making any further calls on the company's preference shares, the capital represented by which is still available to a large extent. The extension fide to Stock ton, joining there the line to Hartlepool, was opened throughout on the 2d of June last. The connexion is therefore completed between Leeds and these ports, and the company is in pos e.eesion of 70 miles of railway. The revenue account shows that during the last half-year the gross traffic receipts were 18,2041., and the working expenses 14,448/. ; Government duty on passengers 481/. ; leaving 13,2751. as .the net profit for the half-year. The balance left of last half-year was 4421., making the, total disposable surplus 13,7171. Of this avail able balance the sum of 9,3961. is required to pay the interest on loans ; and the directors recommend that the further sum of 2,7131. be' appropriated to the pay ment-of the half-year's dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. on the preference quarter shares, leaving a ba lance of 1,607/eto be carried forward to the next half year. The gross receipts for the half-year, ending 30th of June, exhibit an increase of 3,547/. over the corresponding period of 1851. The report concludes by stating that the completion of the northern exten sion of the line is a fact of much importance. The first effect of the opening of the extension has, how ever, been to produce a very severe competition for the traffic of the new district. On the opening of the line to Stockton, the rates to and from nearly all points at which this railway comes into competition with other companies were reduced to an absurd extent by those companies. The effect of the extremely low charges which this company had been compelled in self-de fence to adopt has consequently been to prevent its hitherto deriving those benefits which were anti cipated, and which are still confidently expected to be realised, from the formation of the extension line. The directors continue to entertain the same confident expectations as heretofore of the value of the undertaking. The capacious New Deck at West Hartlepool WAS opened on the Ist of June last, and extensive powers were. obtained in the last session of .Parliament for the improvement of the navigation end dock accommodation of the river Tees, and ulti autely a large traffic- cannot fail to be derived from these sources. Much> attention continues to be de voted to the cultivation of the local traffic, which ex hibits a satisfactory .increase`; and the directors en - tertain the hopes of being able shortly to effect a connexion with the beds of ironstone in the Cleveland hills, from which a further source of profitable reve nue is to be anticipated. sEA.BORNE MAIL O.

A's it Is, they show how lightly the interests of the Indi an p opu l at i on p res s on the consciences of the official class in our eastern do minions—we might almost say, on those of the Euro pean residents in the ahree'preeiclentiel capitals. With few exceptions, the Indian press is in the hands of the army and the bureaucracy. Sometimes the Euro pean merchants and planters contrive to influence it. But of the natives it takes no note. If an official is unjustly displaced, or if his promotion is unduly re- tarded—if a regulation by the Government affects disadvantageously the pockets of merchants or planters, the Indian press goes straightway into hyst er i cs an d yells as if heaven and earth were coming together. But it will be seen from the following quotation , with what sublime and unwincing stoicism the same sensitive gentlemen can endure the sufferings of mere natives : - __ THE PARLUMENTABY COMMITTEE OF INQUlEL—No 'tieing in 'cur last issue the subjects with regard to the Company's administration of this country into which the Parliamentary Committee is directed to inquire, we had but time to make a passing allusion to the incomplete- ness Of the list. Since then our leerss on the subject have been confirmed by the perusal of an article in the Daily News, who calls attention to what he describes as "three very_ remarkable omissions, which we detail in his own words:— " In- the first place, it is not proposed by Government to ascertain, except indeed incidentally, as far as it may be reached by examination intothe iluancial and judicialsystems, the material condition of the 150,000,000 of pep T le ho wh n o ex re t a o ll ol y i3 e s o i n o s h lit i n s te of fndise dominions since 1834. immense which have led o t h n e ur p l o n l policies "And, lastly, the Committee has not entered into any inquiry into our relations with the native princes within the circle of our own territories." These may be " very remarkable omissions " as our home contemporary terms them, but it seems to us that it would have been far more remarkable if the Commit tee of Inquiry had investigated these important subjects with the slightest shadow of success. As for the condi tion of our 150,000,000 of people, what on earth - el:mid a home Committee of Inquiry elicit about that? Why, even here we know nothing about it. The local govern menteocntairo i n e s t t b o a t p r t o h s e e y , console themselves witahllotwhemLesfli and politically,t hey know o h h a tvee their e ltahbeoirurdsuutnyinttehreryupted, and th e y h ave b uilt an d care nothing.

Every one knows and acknowledges the evil, but no attempts ,are made to remedy it. Law or system there is none, save that which is simulated within a circle of a few hundred yards round each judicial cutcherry.

These are questlons for the Coreceittee of la qeiry to propose and hive answered; but this we know, end this we say without fear of contradiction—a heavy purse and a flattering voice have gained far mere suits in the Mofussil Courts than have ever been decided in fa vour of the humble and oppressed. Talk about the " material condition" of the 150 millions that constitute • India! Why, the topic is eschewed with the most reli gious caution by the local authorities, and whence, then, is to be derived the information that should guide the researches of a home Committee of Inquiry? As well might they seek to discover the Whereubouts of that mysterious of monarchs—the great Prester John. As we are still inclined to hope against hope that the investigation of the Committee may result in some belie flt to this country, we are glad that they has travoided a subject, the vastness of which would inevitably perplex them, and the intricacy of which would assuredly baffle all their attempts to understand it, as it has baffled the attempts of men, if not abler, at least possessed of far more light to guide their research. Leaving, then, the " material condition" of the ISO millions of India, we come to the next omission—that of inquiry into the policy which has so immensely ex tended our dominion since 1834. This we should re gard as an unpardonable omission wore the case really as stated by the Daily News; but it is far otherwise. It has not been any extensive and persevering scheme of policy that has yearly pushed our frontier further into the heart of Asia. Oar policy, if we had any, was ever stationary; but circumstances, " over. Which we had no control," drove ns onwards. The Company's govern ment in the East may truly exclaim that they have been throughout their career the victims of circumstances— willing victims, perhaps, in some instances, but still vic tims. After they had first gained a firm footing in India, all that they now possess cane in the natural course of events. They but took their seat under a teeming tree, and as the fruit ripened it naturally fell into their l a p. Now aed then they certainly did accelerate the work of nature by giving the branches a shake, but in these cases they were always urged on by some suddenly concocted idea, or some half-involuntary impulse —never by any settled plan of policy. As well ask why the time-worn and crumbling; tower yields to the fury of the blast, as inquire why the worn-out despotisms of India have one by one bowed down and fallen before the stern energy of the Anglo-Saxon. The tide of British enter prise once tuned upon India—the barriers once re moved—it has silently but incessantly crept onwards either over-topping or sapp i ng and undermining all the , obstacles that would ch ec k i ts course. What may be its destined boundaries it i s b eyond the power of man to determine, but certain it would appear that they have not yet been reached. All that our Indian politicians have ever essayed t o di scover has been tha" natural boundary" of the British Indian empire, and now the object of our search teems as remote *as ever. Heaven may knows in what remote region it be eventually 11 _dis covered. - The last subject of inquiry upon which the Committee are forbidde n to enter—not the least intricate, an d de cidedly the most unsatisfactory—is, the Etat°, of . uu s r n re lations wiele the eative Princes, within the C ` r s el ti l e o % are "minion?.

A plen has been recently submitted to Government and private shipbuilders by Mr. L. Armen, of Bor deaux, and Mr. J. J.
