EXTRACTS FROM THE CITY ARTICLES OF THE DAILY Pates.
(The Times, February 27, 1857.)
"The nrospectus has been issued of the ' London Unadul-
terated Fold Company: with a capital of .ClOO,OOO, in £2O shares.
It is respectably constituted, and the object is to manufacture
and sell some of the articles of food which are most exposed to
deleterious admixture, in a form that will guarantee their
genuineness. Dr. Letheby is to be the chief analyst, and the
names of the various dealers authorised to sell the Company's
goo.lB will be advertised in the local papers throughout the
country."

(3forning Post, February 28, 18574
"The establishment of such a company is a natural necessity,
as well as a moral boon, and it is consequently one that should
be encouraged in every possible manner by the public, or by that
portion at least which values its health and existence. It is by
no means surprising, therefore, to find that gentlemen of high
station have consented to ally their names and influence to the
promotion of the' Unadulterated Food Company; and there can
be scarcely a doubt that. ii the objects laid down in the pro-
spectus are energetically pursued, and the reputation of the
Company established for the supply of aliment in the highest
state of purity, that It will answer well as a elmmeretal enterprise,
an fully justify the expectations of the promoters."
(Morning Herald, February 28, 1857.)
"The company him secured the services of that eminentman,
Dr. Letheby, Professor of Medical Jurisprudence at the London
Hospital, and Officer of Health for the City of London, as chief
analyst. This fact is a proof that if science can be beneficially
directed towards the detection of deleterious compounds in the
substance on which we exist, it will be called into request."
