AGENT IN PARlS.—Tiscount De Beuret. The advantages of the composition called Bitumen, or Asphalte, though hitherto little known in this country, have for some years past been generally recognised on the Continent, and more espe-
cially in France, where the Bitumen has been most and longest
tried, and where it has been found to answer every purpose of stone,
granite, and slate, with many superiorities. For roads, footways,
terraces, cellars, and alleys it has been proved to furnish a surface
equally durable, far less
expensive, and infinitely more elegant,
while for roofs and all purposes •building f it possesses even greater
merits.
Many compositions of a bituminous nature have been tried by
various individuals, and of various substances, but none have been
fthe ound to resist the extremes of heat and cold, except those in which
Mineral tar produced from the Mines of Bastenne and Gaujac
have formed prominent ingredients. Every description of bitumen
Manufactured with vegetable tar, of whatever kind, including va-
rious modifications of the tar deposited in gas works, have proved
megs
~.‘cient, and no substance hitherto discovered possesses the con-
sistency and adhesive properties necessary to bind in a solid and in-
parable mass, the component parts of the bitumen, except the
Ittreeral tar alluded to.
thThe Proprietors of the Seyssell Mimes bare always employed
e_ mineral tar of Bastenne and Gaujae as indispensable adjunct to
e produce of their Mines, and the experience of ten years proves
that no bitumen can be made to answer the purposes required, with-
out a large admixture of that substance.
The Proprietors of the Mines of Bastenne and Gaujae after long
experience of the qualities of their mineral tar, have recently formed
themselves into Companyat Paris, under the title of "La
Suclete des Minesadesd'Asphalte de Bastenne," (generally known
Cs the Debray Company,) for the purpose of vending this mineral,
~n,d Manufacturing, on a large scale, the bitumen made by them on
fth_ir system, which leas been tried since the year 1830, and more
artioularly on the Pont Neuf, one of the most frequented thorough-
are, of Paris, also the fortifications at Bayonne, for which a con-
tract, has been made by the French Government in the SUM of
3,°00/, and has been found superior to any other.
The Viscount De Beuret who is at present in London, has, with
others, purchased of the above Company, the exclusive right of
Importing the tar of Bastenne and Gaujac into this country, and
into every other except the United States and France, and the
Company formed for working the Bastenne and Gaujac Mines
have bound themselves not to sell to any other person for the pur-
pose of exportation any tar produced from their mines.
The Directors of this Company have entered into a contract
with the Count de Beuret and his associates, for the purchase of
this exclusive privilege ; and as this Company will thus possess the
sole right of vending an using the mineral tar in question in this
Country, and on all the Continent excepting the kingdom of
France, this undertaking holds forth the most flattering prospects.
The Shares of the French Company already referred to, are now
demanded in Paris at a very large premium, and there Is no doubt
that the Company here will possess even greater advantages.
The contract being made for the supply of tar, the expense of
Manufacturing the Bitumen will be small, and the Company will
thereforb be enabled to commence operations at a trifling outlay.
To meet the purchase of the exclusive privilege, and for the neces-
'aq„Leh. commencement, the deposit on the Shares has been fixed at
