SHIPMENTS OF ALE TO INDIA.

Under this head Messrs. Bass have attempted to take an advan-
tage in publishing the exports of Messrs. Allsopp from 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 000 toils. 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
toobserve, however, that there is great possibility of error in arriving
at the correct account of exports of Beer, and on this account
Messrs. Allsopp have not ventured to publish the shipments from
1842 to 1841, lest they should not be strictly correct, but from Oc-
tober, 1841, to October, 1842, they were as follows, as admitted by
Messrs. Bass

Bombay. Madras anti Calcutta. Total Hhds.
Allsopp
Bass

Messrs. Allsopp have only to remark that the shipments of the
subsequent year have been as nearly as po sible in the same proportion.
notwithstanding Messrs. Bass and Co.'s "four months' statements,"
when their brewery was not at work.
In closing the above exposition of the advertisement put f.rth by
Messrs. Bass, it is necessary to state that, en a private representa-
tion of its gross incorrectness being made to that firm by Messrs.
Allsopp, a reply was received in which the admission a as made that,
by a typographical error, some misstatement had occurred. In that
letter a. 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 first to adopt a
system of advertising : their intention to assume a position in India
asth regard to the consumption of their Beer, to which they have
no claim, cannot be misunderstood; and, hewevcr repugnant to
their own feelings, Messrs. Allsopp consider it due to themselves
and the public to expose the misrepresentations which hare been so
industriously circulated, and defend the pre-eminent position which
Ale of their manufacture has invariably held both in the Ind'an and
the home markets.
Burton-upon-Trent, March 28, 1.41.
It will be observed, as a curious fact, that these quotaions of
sales are represented by two casks landed in Calcatta, one by privatu
sale at 80 tupeesollend the other (ullagcd) at 70 rupees; whilst on the
same day (17th January), Messrs. Gladstone and Co. notice a whole-
sale sale of 50 hhds. of Allsopp's at t 5 rupees.

CHING'S WORM DESTROYING
LOZENGES have for fifty years hell a distinguished repu •
tation, and are still and increasingly patronised by the highest names
in rank, respectability, and science, from a personal, knowledge of
their utility in their own families.
It is a tact established by the annual Bills or Mortality, that one-
half the children born are cut of/ before attaining seven years of age,
and the fruitful source of this ny rtality is found to exist in that foul
state of the stomach and bowels which produces the generation
of worms.
The symptoms usually are loss of appetite, a paleness of colour of
the face, emaciated and irregular state of the bowels, attendcd w th
violent pain. They bring on convulsions; they affl..et the growth of
the body; and they prove fatal by ending in a consumpt on or decay.
As the certain restorer of Infantine in this critical st.,te,
itching s Worm-Destroying Lozenge." have long hear known and
esteemed ; mild and sat, in tat it operation, suited to every stage of
this period of life, and i,fallible in their effect, their excellenea can
be gratefully testified to many fond and anxious mothera who hs.ve
successfully had recourse to them.
As an Opening Medi-ine in Spring and gummisr, for Adults as
well as for Children, and for foulness of the Stomach' and Bowels,
and Convulsions, although Worms may not exist, it is allowed to be
superior to every other,
