TE TLE Y'S EA ST INDIA PALE ALE.__
The attention of Hotel Keepers, and of the Trade
generally in Liverpool, is respectfully invited to TETLEY'S EAST
INDIA PALS: ALE, which has established a first-rate reputation
in the Metropolis, and will be found to compare advamageously both
in quality and pric• with the finest brands, without exception, to be
found in the market.
11.ference is requested to the following Extracts from Professor
Muspratt's Work on Chemistry, noticed in the Glasgow Herald,
ligust 28th, 1854 :
Chemistry, Theoretical, Practical, and Analytical, as applied to the
Arts and Manufactures. By Pr. Afitspratt, P. it.S.E ,
Parts 6to 9 inclu.iye. Glasgow: William Mackenzie.
The following extract upon u popular subject may be interesting
to our rear!ers

"Pale or East India Ale is nothing more than beer made from
wott, extracted from the palest malt and boiled with the palest
and best hops. Every attention is given to the selection of these
materials, in order to ensure the pale colour peculiar to this ale.
"The only localities where this excellent beverage i 3 produced in
large quantities art Burton, London, Glasgow, and Leeds. In the
latter place a very large quantity of Pale Ale has for some years
been brewed by Messrs. Tetley and Son.

"The peculiar excellence of the ales of the Messrs. Tetley, like
those of Burton—both of the lat er of which were analysed by the
editor. as also the waters used in their preparation—is their
remarkable keeping quality, and their retention of that deli-
cate flavour o' the hops, so often lost by the pale ale brewer, not-
withstanding his utmost efforts to secure it. This, of course, arises
from the near approach made in their pr actice to the theory, that a
low fermenting heat can alone preserve the beer from the simul-
taneous formation of the acetic acid with the a'cohol, and their
recognition of the fact that 72° FAT.. is the highest degree of heat
that can be depended upon. Brewing, it is well known, has been
long carried on in Bavaria on these principles; hut hitherto there
has existed an insuperable objection to their adoption by the more
extensive firms of this country, on account of the great length of
time required for perfect attenuation. This difficu'ty, however,
weu d appear to be at length overcome, the fermentations being
now finished in as short a time as by the old mod,: the hop flavour
s also preserved, and indeed it may be safely as, erted that its deli-
cate aroma is ❑ever more surely destroyed than by high and tur.
bulent fermentation.

This new process of brewing pale ale has also the advantage of
affording greater purity of fragrance, it being well known that the
dissolution of balm by alcohol, the result of which may often be
detected by the yeasty flavour of the ale, is much accelerated by
high temperatures. Good water, as previously stated, is indispen-
sable in a brewery, for sound ale cannot be brewed with water not
adapted for the purpose. The water at the brewery of Messrs.
Tetley is similar in constitution to the Burton water, as will be seen
on reference t, the analysis of it, by the editor, at page 245."
The fact of these Ales successfully competing with the very finest
brands may be substantiated by reference to the number of first-class
houses in London, to which it is supplied. A list of them will be
furnished, on application to the Liverpool agent, of whom a list can
also be procured of the leading houses in the provinces, where
Tetley's Pale Ale may he obtained, either in bottle or in draught.

The Chairman said the next business was the report of Mr.
Stewart, upon alterations to be made for further accommoda-
tion. The lease had yet to run two years, and until that time
it shoisld he borne in mind that nothing could bo done.
The following report was read :

REPORT

The proprietors having referred to your consideration the
best means of enlarging the present Exchange-room, or other-
wise providing additional accommodation of that description--
Counsel's opinion being that the streets, piazzas, &c., which
bound the extremes of the present room could not be inter-
rupted, at once disposed of the question of enlarging the area
of the present room : consequently, however inconvenient, the
only w•y in which the additional accommodation could be
obtained was limited to providing a new additional room as
contiguous as possible to the present room, or otherwise to
make use of a room on the one pair floor to be constructed
out of the present Underwriters'-room and the offices on that
floor.

Your sub-committee were of opinion that the least incon-
venient way would be to provide an additional room, and, as
the most convenient in contiguity to the present room, a
portion of the northern stack of the present offices naturally
presented itself.
I propose, therefore, to bring before you such information
as occurs to me as needful to be considered, should this sug-
gestion he adopted.
This northern stack of offices is the narrowest, being only
37 feet 6 inches in width on the ground floor, whilst your
present room is 51 feet wide, and your western offices a
little more than that ; the width of the northern stack is
ample'for private offices, but narrow for a public room, and
its limited width must limit its length ; it follows that the
area to he obtained on this site for a public room cannot be
very great.

I propose to clear away Nos. 14, 15, 16, and 17, which will
give a length of about 93 feet inside, from which, if a staircase
and master's room be taken, there will be left a room for 81
feet clear in length by 37 feet 6 inches in width, a great length
for a room of that width.
Your present room, clear of the bar, is 111 long and 51 feet
wide.

The height of the proposed new room would fake two
present stories, and would be equal to the side parts of the
present room, but the width of the new room would not allow
of the division by columns into a centre and two side, the
consequence of which would be to make the want of heights
more apparent.
I think the cost of carrying out the alteration would be
from £6.000 to £7,000. A year's rent would be lost on
all the buildings interfered with, and about two-thirds of
the rent thereof permanently sacrificed, in substitution for
which there would be the nett return of additional sub-
scriptions, after deducting the expense of,the additional staff

of ntiicer

Simply as a question of finance it is doubtful whether it
would succeed, and how far it would promote the convenience
of parties frequenting the Yxchange, is a question which
your committee are better able to decide than I am.

JOHN STEWART.
After a long conversation, Mr. Melly moved, and Mr. Bol-
ton seconded a resolution to the effect that the committee he
instructed to procure plans this year for the enlargement and
improvement of the rooms.

The motion was adopted.
The proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to the
Chairman.

THE ACCIDENTAL POISONING
DINGWALL.

We ga

e i❑ our papal- of Saturday a very brief account
of a most startling and melancholy occurrence at Ding.
wall (Scotland); we now find a full account in the
luvernes.c Courier :_...._

A calamitous occurrence took place at Dingwall on
Tuesday, which has created a most painful sensation in
Ross-shire and the neighbouring counties. It appears
that John Maciver, Esq., Provost of Dingwall, had a
private dinner party on Tuesday afternoon, consist-
ing of Lewis M. Mackenzie, Esq., of Findon ; the
Rev. Messrs. Mackenzie of Eskadale and Gordon of
Beauty, Roman Catholic priests; John Macdonald, Esq.,
Torridon ; and the members of Mr. Maciver's own
family. After dinner, Mr. Gordon complained of a
parched mouth, and having taken a drink of water,
retired. Mr. Macdonald felt the same symptoms, and also
withdrew for a short time, while the others remained at
table. The Rev. Mr. Mackenzie then took ill, and a
little after, Mr. Maciver and Mr. Mackenzie
of Findon began to complain. Dr. Smith was
sent for, but before his arrival, death had
made its inroads. The two clergymen, after violent
vomiting, expired, and Mr. Mackenzie, of Findon, quickly
followed. Mr. Macdonald having left the house, walked
about, and to this and to his native vigour and activity
his recovery may mainly be attributed. Mr. Maciver, we
are glad to say, having been kept walking about in the
house, is recovering, and no other was taken ill. The au-
thorities were soon on the spot; little could be done to
check the career of death, but the cause of the dire
catastrophe is scarcely matter of conjecture. From
what has transpired we may state that the cook
sent the male servant to the garden for some
radish for the roast beef, and he, through a
mistake, took monkshood—root to her, and this formed
the sauce for the beef. It is now thought that all the
parties who have died, as well as Mr. Maciver and Mr.
Macdonald, ate more or less of the beef, that the deadly
poison was in the sauce, and that the awful disaster hence
originated. As yet, there has been no dissection of the
bodies, and we believe this awaits a communication from
Edinburgh. We can only further state, that this dreadful
event has cast a gloom over the locality that many a long
day will not remove. The distress in Mr. Maciver's family
is indescribable, and the extensive sympathy which is
felt can scarcely soothe the grief which weighs them
down. The two clergymen were highly respected by their
own people, and Mr. Mackenzie of Findon, from his
suavity of manners, intelligence, and the interest which he
evinced in county ;business, had he been spared, would
have occupied a conspicuous and;nseful position. He will
be succeeded in his property by a younger brother, now
in the army in the Crimea, We cannot, however, conclude
without remarking the deep sensation which this frightful
event has occasioned.

FALL OF ICARs.---MEETING of ADmiNISTRATIvE RE-
FORM ASsOCIATioN.—On Saturday, the Administrative
Reform Association convened a meetinr, at the London
Tavern, for the purpose of expressing their' opinion on the
propriety of adopting a memorial to her Majesty, praying
her to direct a full and public erquiry into the circum-
stances connected with the fall of Ears. The meeting was
addressed by Messrs. Morley, Tracers, Gassiott, Laurence,
Richards, Mechi, and Lindsay, M.P. A very strong opinion
was expressed on the conduct of those who had neglected to
send from Erzerourn sonic of those provisions which were
there in abundance, and which it was contended might easily
have been made available fur the garrison of Kars by a
relic vino. 6 force. The memorial agreed to by the meeting
embodied these facts, and concluded with an earnest prayer
that her Majesty would order a "full and public enquiry
into the whole of the circumstances involved in the fall of
Kars." Mr. Lindsay, M.P., read to the meeting a letter
which he had received from a general of b! igade in the
Turl:ish Contingent, detailing a number of facts connected
with the movements of that force, which proved, in his
opinion, the great want which existed of some comprehensive
measure of military reform, and suggested that the Admin-
istrative Reform Association should devote its labours to the
cnli•ditenment of the public on the necessity which existed
for the union of the English and Indian armies, the abuses
of the civil service patronage, and the secret and uncon-
stitutional influence which was constantly exercised over the
polLy and acts of the Executive. The resolution in favour
of the adoption of the memorial was agreed to by acclama-
tion ; and thanks having been voted to the chairman, and
to th Administrative Reform Association, for its useful
labours, the proceedings terminated.
