BARON LIEBIG ON CERTAIN LATE ANONYMOUS
ADVERTISE RENTS.
Extract of a Letter dated Munich, 12th September, 1852, from
Baron Liebig to Mr. henry Allsopo, Brewery, Burton-on-Trent.
"To my great astonishment and concern, my attention has lately
been called to several anonymous articles and advertisements
headed by my name, such as in the -, whose author altogether
misrepresents the motives of my remarks, and even goes so far as to
say 'that I had never analysed your beer, nor perhaps ever tasted it
in my life,' and to allege a retractation on my part of the original
statement.
" I emphatically declare that I had not the slightest knowledge of
these anonymous articles, the contents of which I entirely disapprove
of; and that in every respect I adhere to the statement made in my
letter to you, which certainly you were, and are at perfect liberty to
publish."

BARON LIEBIG ON PALE ALES.
" If I wished to associate with any individual brewery my re-
marks on the alleged adulteration of bitter beer with strychnine, it
would have been only natural to hive mentioned another brewery, in
which alone, and not in Mr. Allsopp's, I was engaged in investigating
the Burton mode of brewing : and it was also in that other brewery
the Bavarian brewers acquired all the instructions they obtained at
Burton. The admiration I expressed of this beverage in my letter
to Mr. Allsopp is advertised in such a manner as to lead to the in-
ference that my praise was exclusively confined to Mr. AllsopP's
beer ; this was not the case, my remarks referred to that CLASS of

The Hon. Colonel CLIVE took the chair, and said—
They were aware the present was an adjourned meeting,
and he thought the better way to proceed would be to
hold the sly cid meeting at once. The business of the
half-yearly meeting had been, he might say, disposed of;
directors and auditors had been elected, and the report,
with the exception of one paragraph, had been received.
He would, therefore, call upon the secretary to read the
supplemental report of the directors.
Mr. NIcoLL then read the report,
which contains the
following terms offered to the Shrewsbury and Birming-
ham Company:—
" The Great Western Company will, subject to the
following conditions, consent (under a proper agreement
to be approved by counsel) to secure an cption, to tb.p6q
shareholders of the two Shrewsbury Commies who
will undertake to hold their shares, or in selling the
shares to others to bind the nurchascrs to the same
covenants, to bind themselves to assist by voting at the
Wharncliffe meetings, and otherwise to support the Bills
and to carry out the subsisting agreements between the
three companies, provided that proprietors holding at
least one half of the capital in each company shall
execute such agreement.

These terms have been approved of by the Shrews-

boards.

The adoption of the report having been moved and
seconded, an amendment for an adjournment was moved
by Mr. Scott and seconded.
After considerable discussion the following letter from
the secretary of the London and North-Western Com-
pany was read by Mr. Geach, M.P.:—
" London and North-Western Railway, Euston

" C. Geach, Esq,, M.P."
After some further discussion the CHAIRMAN put Mr.
Scott's motion, which was rejected by a large majority.
A poll was demanded, and the shareholders
were
about to record their votes, when
Mr. SCOTT said he would not press for a poll upon
the question of adjournment, consequently the motion
was declared lost.
The CHAIRMAN then put the :reaolution, which was
carried by a show of hands, and a poll was demanded.
The CHAIRMAN said it would be impossible to make
the result of the poll known that day, and be should
adjourn the meeting till Tuesday, at ten o'clock.
The meeting was accordingly adjourned.

SHREWSBURY AND CHESTER.
The adjourned meeting was held at Chester yesteraah
in pursuance of the resolution upon which a ballot took
place on the 13th inst.

The directors have no doubt that the proposed brunch
would not only be remunerative in it,elf, bu; would tend
greatly to increase the traffic on the North and South-
Western Junction Railway, and they had no hesitation,
therefore, in recommandiug the shareholders to agree to
its construction.
The CrraitimArn in moving the adoption of the report,
said there was a discrepancy in the figures relating to
the cost of the line. At the half-yearly meeting on the
31st of August last it was stated that the estimated cost
would be 13,0001., and he had every reason to believe
that would be sufficient at present; but, considering that
labour and materials were advancing in price, it was
suggested that 15,0001. should be put down in the esti-
mate instead of 13,0001., which ho hoped they .would
agree to, and with this assurance, that they would not,
expend Is. more than was necessary in its construction.
This new capital would have the effect of increasing the
old shares in the proportion of one new share for every
fear shares held by the present proprietors. There
vquld be some over, which would have to be disposed
Vby the directors. He concluded by moving a resolu-
tion for the adoption of the report. -
Mr. MANGLES seconded the motion,
In reply to questions it was stated that, although the
distance between certain places by there
railway was more
than double that by omnibus, yet was a consider-
ble saving in time, and the expense was about the same.
Persons would prefer travelling in the railway carriages
to travelling in omnibuses. They had no doubt that
a very large number of persona would travel over their

line.
The report was then adopted.
Resolutions were passed authorizing the directors to
apply is the next session of Parliament for power to
make a branch railway to Hammersmith, and to raise
15,0001. on shares, with the, usual borrowing powers;
and agreeing to offer 1,500 shares of 10/, each to the
proprietors, in the proportion of one new share to every
four shares held by each proprietor.
In reply to Mr. YOUNG, it was stated that the terms of
the contract with Mr. Brassey were being enforced, and
they had no doubt the junction lino would be ready for
traffic in about a fortnight. It appeared that consider-
able delay had occurred in the execution of the works
on this line in consequence of a refusal on the part of
the sub-contractors to pay the men 3d. por day more
than they were willing to give. The line was to have
been opened on the Ist of August, but the time was
afterwards extended to the lot of September, and now
it is not expected to

LOSS OF AN EMIGRANT SHIP.
WEXFORD, SEPT. 18.—The oyster-boat Teetotaller,
has just arrived at our quay, having in tow two boats
containing about 60 male and female passengers, and
part of the crew of the ship Bhurtpore, of Liverpool, Barn-
bridge master, bound to New Orleans, which vessel
struck on the north end of the Long Bank, about four
miles eastward of the Forth, at three o'clock this
morning. As well as I can ascertain from the pas.
sengers, the following is an account of the disaster:—
This vessel was about 1,500 tons burden, having a
crew of 35 hands and 485 souls (men, women, and
children) as passengers, the latter, with the exception
of 56, being all Irish, and generally young people of
the peasant class of life. She left Liverpool on Thurs-
day morning in tow of a steamer, which left her off
Ormsby Point. During Thursday night she rather lost
ground than gained, but on Friday morning she had fair
wind. The coast of Wales was seen by the passengers
before nightfall last evening. All the passengers were,
at the time she struck, in their berths, and whether any
blame is to be attached to the captain or officers is yet
to be ascertained. The description given by some of
the sufferers of the scene which followed is horrifying.
When the two boats here alluded to left the wreck there
were still two other boats left, and Captain Devereux,
the master pilot, was using all exertion to get to the as-
sistance of those on board.
On the calamity being known in town, the merchants,
together with Mr. Devereux, M.P., and his Worship the
Mayor, Mr. John Walsh, assembled in the Chamber of
Commerce to devise the best means to send to the assist-
ance of the sufferers, and several oyster-boats have been
dispatched, properly manned, to the scene of disaster.
A spirited and humane townsman, Captain Crosbie, has
accompanied them, to afford the benefit of his assistance.
HALF•PAST 3 P.IL—A pilot-boat has just reached our
quay, bringing about 100 more off the wreck. Others
have been landed at the Forth. When the last boat left
about 100 still remained on the wreck, but It was ex-
pected, with the assistance of the oyster and other boats,
most of the people would be saved. The Mayor was in

unfortunate sufferers conveyed to the poorhouse for

who were unfortunately drowned, bad been got ashore
and landed at Wexford.

AUTUMN.—For the last three months samples
of new materials have been daily pouring in from all the
celebrated manufactories in the world, The amplitude of pattern
and magnificent finish displayed in these new styles for Autumn
have afforded full scope for the matured judgment of E. MOSES
and SON'S buyers, and the novelty, quality, and price of the goods
offered to them in preference to any other Establishment, induced
them to give the earliest orders on their usual n_agnificent scale.
These new materials, for every description of Dress, are now sub-
mitted to the incomparable skill of distinct classes of artists, British
and Foreign, in the employ cf E. MOSES and SON, and will shortly
be presented in novel styles, surpassing every other invention.
E. MOSES and SON, by immense purchases on their invariable
ready-money principle, have secured great allowances, and conse-
quently their new styles for Autumn will be charged lower than on
any previous season.

The sentence of the General Court-martial on Se-

day been promulgated. That officer is found guilty,
and sentenced to be cashiered, upon the following
charge—" for insubordination and disorderly conduct,
in breach of proper discipline and unbecoming the
character of an officer and a gentleman, in having, on
the 19th of August, 1852, at the Double-gate Guard
of the Gosport lines, brought to th 3 officers' guard-
room of the said gate two women with whom he had
quarrelled, charging them with robbing him, lock-
ing the guard-room door in the inside, and thereby
obstructing the officer of the guard in the execu-
tion of his duty, retaining the key, and
disobeying the lawful command of Second-
Lieutenant George Nayler, his superior officer, i❑ the
execution of his duty, by refusing to open the officers'
guard-room door when ordered to do so by his said
superior officer, and did make use of most disgusting
language, to the bad example and disturbance of the
guard, and did likewise conduct himself in a disor-
derly manner in subversion of all military order and
good discipline."

INGENIOUS SMUGGLING DETECTED.—On Friday
a very important seizure was made by Mr. Rolls, landing
surveyor of Customs, at Nicholson's Wharf. Soon after the
steam-ship Baron Osy, from Antwerp, arrived, and had en-
tered her cargo, Mr. Rolls visited her, and on an examina-
tion of some cases, supposed to contain rapeßed oil, an in-
genious mode of smuggling was discovered. There were
forty-two cases, each containing two large tins (apparently)
of oil, but it turned out that there was merely a tube con-
nected with the mouth of the tin casks that contained oil,
and afforded sufficient for examination, the remaining por-
tion of the cask being filled with snuff of very good quality.
The whole forty-two cases were seized and lowered into the
Queen's warehouse. Each tin case contained nearly three-
quarters of a hundred o snuff: so the quantity seized
amount to quite three tons.f

Sir,—Observing from your notice of the, life of the
Duke of Welliugton which eppeated in The Times of
the 15th iu6t. that there is some doubt as to the day of
his birth, I enclose a copy of a letter from his mother to
a relative of mine, which, I think, will settle the point.
The letter itself will explain the cause of its being
written. Should you wish to insert the enclosed in your
journal, will you be good enough to send me a copy of
the paper? I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT AT THE NELSON COLUMN.—
Via Zata.afty lent an accident of a frightful nature occurred
at the Nelson column to a man litui...l Daniel Allman& a
labourer, which was nearly producing fatal results. It ap-
peared that a number of workmen were ensaged in fixing
the grand bronze alto relievo, representing England's naval
hero at the battle of St. Vincent, which will cover the
western side of the base, facing Cockspur-street, and for
which several holes had been drilled in the granite block to
receive the bolts by which the casting is to be kept in its
position. Three bolts were being fastened in by boiling lead,
and Allmond was steadying one of them whilst the lead was
being poured in from the vessel, which contained about 12
pounds weight of it ; and after nearly 10 pounds had been
run, a loud gust was heard, when the whole mass instantly
rushed out in a stream full upon him, going into his month
and eyes, and burning his face in a frightful mariner. His
screams were heartrending, and he was immediately
