TIM Directors, 'in announcing the formation of the Com-
panv, have the satiSfaction to acquaint the Shareholders
with the important tact that they have obtained the exclusive
licence for the use of the Asphalte of Sevssel in the Six Northern
Counties of England and in the Isle of Man. ,The manifold
purposes to which this Asnhalte can be applied and its intrinsic
merit (being the only one which stood the test of experience)
warrant the Directors in the confidence they feel that the pre-
sent undertaking will not only be one of incalculable advan-
tage to the district allotted to the Company, but likewise a
source of considerable profit to the Shareholders; and although
rival CoMpanies may be established, the Directors do not fear
the competition. Their patent will protect them against the
infringement of their just rights, and the application of the ma-
terial will speak for itself.
The Directors are prepared to receive applications from the
principal Towns in the Six Northern Counties of England for
the formation of Branch Companies in their respective Districts.

MHE Directors are happy to be able to inform the '
Share-
holders that the arrangements between the Proprietors of
the Bastenne and Gaujac Mines, by which the exclusive privi-
lege of exporting and vending the mineral tar and asphalte of
the Bastenne and Gaujac Mines was to be ceded and secured
to this Company, were finally completed at Paris on the 28th of
April inst., under the personal superintendence of two of the
Directors at present in Paris.
The Company is therefore now in a position to commence the
delivery of the Mineral Tar ; and their Agent in I'aris (the
Viscount de Beuret) has already undertaken, on advantageous
terms, a contract for the supply of a considerable quantity of
the Mineral Tar, in continuation of a contract which has
subsisted for several years for the Railroad from Berlin to Pots-
dam.

The Board of Directors will be prepared, on the,return of their
Brother Directors from Paris, with a report to their Shareholders
on the subject of the prospects of the ,Company, which cannot
fail to be highly satisfactory.
In the meantime they beg to direct the attention of the Share-
holders to the Works -constructed with the bitumen in question
by Mr. Debray, the Manager of the 'French Company, on the
railroads from Paris to St. Germain and St. Cloud, the pave-
ment in the Rue Richelieu, on the Boulevards, near Frescati's,
the Ponts Neuf and Carousel, the Faubourg St. Denis, the for-
tifications, roofs, flooring and other works at Bayonne and Boor-
deaux, the large reservoirs of the Faubourg Batignolles, Charen-
ton, and else vk here, which afford the most ample and satisfactory
proofs of the excellence of their Bitumen.'

EA L Judges of SODA WATER need not to be told that
1.1.. its main excellence consists lathe LENGTH OF TIME during
which it retains its life and pungency AFTER IT IS POURED OUT,
and not (as many erroneously suppose) on the force with which
it expels the cork. This latter is rather the characteristic of
the commonest Soda Water, for the obvious reason that the air
is disengaged, whereas, by the peculiar principle of ScuwEPPE'S
process, the. Carbonic Acid does not escape with the cork, but,
being thoroughly amalgamated with the water, remains as a'
valuable medicinal feature in their manufacture. The same
observations will apply to their A6Ated Lemonade, Potass and
Magnesia Waters.
Pray observe the RED LABEL, over the Cork, representing'
their ignatii, e, as many of the other makers impose upon the
public by " Saiweppe's Bottles"'with their own spurious
