MATTIIEW SIMPSON, C ATASTROPHE AT BEZAUDUN STATEMENT, BY THE REV. ALEXIS MUSTON, D .D., RESPECTING THE DESTRUCTION OF THE PROTESTANT VILLAGE, CHURCH, AND SCHOOL OF BF.LAUDUN, IN THE DEPARTMENT OF DROP4E, IN FRANCE Bezaudun, a Protestant village in the department of Drome, has disappeared from the map of France. A frightful landslip of the hill on which it was situated took place, from the effect of the rains which produced the recent inundations of the Rhone and the Loire. All the houses have been destroyed ; the chapel, which dates as far back as the Reformation, is now a heap of rubbish, and the school and communal house have met with the same fate. In this unlooked-for calamity there has, nevertheless, been great reason of thankfulness to (Sod. At the first movement of the ground, the church bell, being shaken, commenced to tins of its own accord, and the inhabitants, thus warned, as by the providential interven tion of an invisible hand, had time to escape. No one has perished, but the inhabitants have lost their all—provisions, clothes, linen, tools, furniture— everything has been destroyed. The crops of this year are likewise destroyed, and for a long period it will be impossible to cultivate the ground thus subverted. In the face of such a dipiter, we cannot remain inactive. All the families of Be?audun have been temporarily received into the houses in the neighbourhood. But how is their village, with its chapel, to be rebuilt? The whole pecuniary loss is estimated at 65,000 francs, or 442,600. Towards the reparation of this loss, there has been already received --from the gift of the Emperor of Fiance, 1000 francs ; from the Adrninivration of the Department of Drome, 500 francs; from the Sub-Prefect of Die, 100 francs; and fOOO francs are ext,ected from the fund raised for beh of of those who suffered from the inunda tions ; making in all 7,600 francs, or '304, from public sources. Various sums of less amount have also been collected by the Pro testant Churches in France, especially by those in the immediate neighbourhood of the scene of the disaster, but a large amount still remains to be made up. Bezaudun and its neighbourhood were converted to Protestantism by the preaching of Farel, at the time of the Reformation, and have continued Protestant ever since. It is on behalf of this distressed people that the Rev. Dr. Bfuston. their pastor, author of The Israel of the Alps, ventures to address his more fortunate fellow-Christians in the words of St. Paul: "That now at this time your abundar.ce may be a supply fcr their want."

The association has every reason to believe that the irregularities and anomalies incidental to the collection of the paper duty, are quite as numerous as those which for many years it was engated in exporing, as connected with the adverti,ement duty and the news paper stamp. Nothing will tend so much to the abolition of the paper duty as a systematic attack upon the injustice which it inflicts in individual cases. The association will therefore feel obliged by any addbition to its Information on this subject, and will be ready to consider the practicability of otaining redress in any individual case of grievance. _ .

"The undersigned has no hesitation in cordially recommending to Christian charity the collection undertaken by the Rev. Alexis Muston, of the Church of Bourdeaux (Drorne), on behalf of the unfortunate inhabitants of the village of 13ezaudun, a branch of the Reformed Church of Bourdeaux. " On 31st 1114list,Incons;r7ience of the long rains, the ground on which the vi.lage is built slid down the slope of the hill, and the entire village—houses, chu ch, school, and cultivated land adjoining —has been completely destroyed. The inhabitants are all Pro testants and agriculturists ; and, under Providence, can now only look to the benevolence of God's people to relieve them in their distress, and aid them in relmEding the chapel. where they were wont to worship God, tne school where their children received in struction, and houses to shelter them. The sum of 50,000 francs (4'2000) will suffice, under the Lord's blessing, to repair this mis. fortune. The case is quite an exceptional one. Christian charity will respond to the cry of distress uttered by unfortunate brethren, and will prove itself once more a reality. " I invoke the blessing of God on the work of mercy undertaken by the Rev. Mr. Muston, and again recommend heartily his labours to all my friends who may read this account, in France, Be'ginm, Holland, or elsewhere. (Signed) "FRED. MONOD, Pasteur, " Paris, 18th Jury, 1856," "I coraially coney in all that Mr. Monod has stated above.. and add my warmest wishes for the success of Mr. Murton in the collec tion which he now undertakes. in the Lame of Christian charity, on behalf of his distressed parishioners, . (Signed) L. VALLETTE, Pasteur. " Paris, 19th July, 1855." Ex ract cf alettor addressed by the Rev. Cresar Malan, Geneva, to Dr Must , n " I introduce the Pastor Bitistonto my friends in Scotland and England, recommending his case to them, and praying them to receive him as if it were myself. " CIESAR lIIALAN, Pasteur. (Signed) " Geneva, 10th July, 1856." Dr, Muston , s cause Is also recommended by the Rev. Dr. Grand- Pierre, and the Rev. M. Arn - •and De Lisle, of Paris, and other influential individuals. " 1 cordially join in the above recommendations. Dr. Muston is the son of a respected pastor in Vat Lucerne, one of the valleys of the Vaudois. " In addition to his descent from a race of martyrs, his personal claims are great, as a devoted minister of Christ, and Author of a Htslory of the Waldensian Church. (Signed) " JOHN R. MACDUFF, " Minister of the South West Church, Glasgow." wasgow, 14th October, 115 Q. " From the opportunity mhich we have had of examining into the application of the Rev. Dr. Muston, we have no hesitation in recom mending the object of his missir n as one peculiar in itself, and well worthy of the liberality of Christian men of all denominations. (Signed) "JOHN G.

Central Depot, Manufactory, I aboratories, &c.: 49, BERNERS STBEEET, OXFORD STREET, LONDON. The House of Commons appointed, last year, a Committee to ascertain the extere of prevailing adu.terations in articles of food, drugs, chemicals, &c. The evidence given before it, and printed with its report, exposed a fearful amount of sophistication and frau dulent dealings in drugs, &c. The public press had, before this, denounced this enormous evil; and by i:s powerful energy since, has succeeded, in some degree, in checking the more daring and open continuance of the practice. The public mind has la come thoroughly aware of these practices. Alarmed at them. and yet scarcely knowing how to avoid them, some professional gentlemen in London, who had experienced the same difficulties as to purity and uniformity of strength in Drugs and Chemicals, Invalids' Food, &c., combined, originated, and estab lished the GENERAL APOTHECARIES' COMPANY (Limited) as a remedy for this gigantic and serious evil; and as a protection for all classetr. The Public and the Profession are entitled, and ought to enquire of this Company 1. Wirit, are the objects in view, and the principles of action? 2. By what means will these be carried out? 3. What gte.rantees are there for the faithful performance 7 Ist. The objects of the Company are, to pre, are and supply the Medical Profession and the Public with medicines of every kind, of known strength and perfect purity; Invalids' Fool, and Domestic Chemicals. To improve the forms of old remedies, to introduce new from all quarters of the world, wherever satisfactory evidence of their value is obtained. To sell every article under Its right name, without substitution, and of defined and uniform strength, and at fair and moderate prices. To protect the public, by a careful selection of intelligent Assistants, from the dangers arising fr,,m careless and inaccurate dispensing. 2nd. The Company purchases at the best markets, only, the finest qualities of sound and genuipe Drugs ; these are crushed or groued on the premises, by the machinery of th- Company, an I there mode into the various preparations; being thus under perfect control. Such Chemicals as are not made by the Company are obtained only from the first manufacturers, tested and examined before use, and where only commercially pure, are made chemically so, by re-crys talisation and other processes, in the laboratories, under the con stant superintendence of an e ninent resident Chemist, recommended by Baron Liebeg and Dr. Fresenius. The exact composition of every article is ascertained and stated, before brought into use. A depot aid be opened in every large and important town in the king dom, for the sale of theie articles; whe e the public may obtain all domestic medicines, invalids' food, &c., as pure as human means can make them ; where prescriptions will be prepared exactly in accordance with the intentions of the prescribers, and agreeable to the directions of the British and Foreign Pharmacopoeias. The Com pany's preparations may thus be obtained directly by the public, without the risk attending intermediate channels. 3rd. Toe possession of ample capital; the status and character of the Directors ; the numerous shareholders belonging to the Medical ' Profession, who will be deeply interested in the bona fides; the high standing taken as a sci , ntific as well as a comm ercial body; the war waged against adulterations on t fraud, which will create watchful opponents, ready to expose any defaults; and lastly, the powerful motives of self-interest; all these offer guarantees for t e faithful carrying out and onward, of the business of the General Apothecaries' Company (Limited), in accordance with its principles. The Liverpool Apothecaries' Company, founded and carried on upon exactly the same principles, having satisfied itself by careful inspection of the machinery, it off, and general organisation of the General Apothecaries' Company (Limited), that it is perfectly able and fully resolved to carry out those principles, and to extend its ben , ficial advantages widely throughout the country. has therefore resolved to be identified with and merge into it; for which purpose arrangements will speedily be matured. A small portion of the capital of the Company set apart for Live pool, is still open for allotment. Applications for ehares to be made to the Managing Director, Berners street, London.
