MADRAS.

........„.....
The last recorded sales of Beer on the spot (Oct. 18) stood thus :
Allsopp 7O rupees per hhd 1 Bass 65 rupees per hhd.
Messrs. Bass and CP., state, under this heat that some of their
Beer had been sold at 68 rupees 8 annas. 'Phis, however, at it ap-
pears from the statement of Melva. Haviside and Co., was for :le of

the present season to arrive ; while, at the same period, Messis: Hall
and Co., of Madras, had refused that price 'or 4t U hhds. of Albopp's.
The attention of the public is requested to the ingenuity of Messrs.
Bass and Co.'s reirese:ttati on in this instance.

BOMBAY.

The sales of Ale at this place, as per Price Current k Nev. 1), were—
Allsopp 200 hhds. at 65 cups. I Bass CO cups. to 61 nips
The s tne Price Current (Dec. 1) says :—" We have been apprised
la see of hhcle. of Allsopp and Co., at 65 rupees per Phd ; of
Bass's two sales have been reported to us, one of 52 hhds., at 61
rupees, and the other of . 5 hhds., at GO rupees.
Annther Price Current (Dec. I) remarks We have heard
mention of 2' 0 hhds of Alisopp's having been sold, since the dispatch
of the last mail, at 65 rupers per Mid., which cleared the market for
the time. A furl ter supply of 300 hhds. has since come in, of which
some had been previously sold at the above price to arrive. The de-
mand for this brew has been brisk throughout the month, arising, as
we understand, from the very favourable reports received from the
country cf the quality of last season's brew."
SHIPMENTS OF ALE TO INDIA.

Under this head Messrs. Vass have at' empted to take an advm.
tage in publishing the exports of Messrs. Allsopp frm the Ist of
October to the Ist of February last. The returns are, however,
grossly untrue, inasmuch as they have understated the shipments of
Messrs, Allsopp in that time to the extent of 60'i h, ds. to Calcutta
alone. It is true that Messrs. Allsopp's shipments at this period were
unusually small, and that; with the exception of about 200 nhds., their
shipping season did not commence till late in November, in conse-
quence of very extensive alterations and enlargements in their brew-
ery, which increased business obliged them to make. It is necessary
to observe, however, that there is great posstility of error in arriving
at the correct account of experts of Beer, and on this account
Messrs. Allsopp have not ventured to publish the shipments from
1842 to 1845, lest they should not be strictly correct, but from Cc-
tober, 1841, to October, 1842, they were as follows, as admitted by
Messrs. Bass :

Bombay. Madras an. Calcutta. Total Hhds.
Allsopp
Basi., 9,013 ..... 2,727

Messrs. Allsopp have only to remark that the shipments of the
subsequent year have been as nearly as po sible in the same proporti,,n,
notwithstanding Messrs. Bass and Co.'s "four months' statements,
when their brewery was net at work.
In closing the above expos•tion of the advertisement put forth by
Messrs Bass, it is necessary to state that, on a private representa-
tion of its gross incorrectness being ra,de. to that firm by Messrs.
Allsopp, a reply was received in which the admission v as made that,
by a typographical error, some misstatement is -(1 occurred. In that
tetter an alleged "corrected form" was inclosed, containing the same
glaring inaccuracies, which Messrs. Allsopp have been thus com-
pelled to expose. Messrs. Bass and Co were the fist to salty, a
system of aovertising : their Intention to as-sime a position in India
ith regard to the consumption of their Beer, to which th •y have
no claim, cannot be misunderstood ; an t, bowel, r roping, ant to
their own feelings, Messrs. Allsopp consider it due to themselves
and ..the public to expose the misrepresentations which have been so
industriously circulated, and defend the pre-eminent position which
Ale of their manufacture has invariably helm both in the lndtan and
the hdme markets.

Burton.upon.Trent, March 29, 1,4 t.
It will be of served, as a curious fact, that these quotations of
sales are represented by two casks landed in Calcatta, one by private
sale at SO rupees, and the other (ul►aged) at 70 rupees; whist on the
same day (17th January), Messrs. Gladstone and Co. notice a whole.

CIIING'S WORM DESTROYING
LOZENGES have for fifty years hell a distinguished repu-
