Oxfoed In Thk Dats Op Faith.—The Old Kni...
OXFOED THK Dats op Faith . —The old knights d bishops drew up their institutions as they built their churches , to outlast the world . The earth , with its changes and its dreams of progress , was nothing to them , except a stage on which the devil and his friends played out their foolish game . As there was but one Gol the same yesterday to-day and for ever , the services which would please Him to-day would be alike grateful to him tomorrow . The world might change , hut He did not change . Christ was what He had been from eternity , and as into eternity he would continue . There was not one service for the first century , and
another for the tenth , and another for the twentiethone for one nation , and another for another ; hut God was one , and His services were one , and what was good and acceptable once , was good for ever . They did not conceive that a time might come when luxury and selfindulg ence , and elegance , and polish , and literary ease , would he found better suited for the exigences of humanity than their uncouth barbarities , and they omitted to provide for necessities which they did not
anticipate . The statutes are obligatory for ever ; the visitors who are to see them enforced have no power to repeal them ; the fellows , under , pain of anathema , are to seek no dispensation from , and accept no alteration of , them ; and the last end when it came was to find them praying the same prayers , wearing the same dress , speaking the same language , disputing the same disputations—and so on and on , from age to age , the same in body and in mind , in word and action , life and manner ; as the nightingale sings the same song which it
sang a thousand years ago ; or as the mountain brook straggling down its bed among the rocks repeats its one old form from century to century , and glides , and breaks , and foams , and eddies , the same to-day a 3 when human eye first gazed upon it . — " The Oxford Commission , " Westminster Review .

PARIS CHOCOLATE COMPANY , Provisionally registered , pursuant to 7 & 8 Vic . c . 110 . In 15 , 000 Shares of sSl each , to be fully paid upon allotment , ( with power to increase to ^ 25 , 000 . ) The Paris Chocolate Company was established for supplying the British public with genuine unadulterated articles , manufactured in strict accordance with the ^ French system , but at lower than the importation prices . The Company have met with the greatest success , having obtained the patronage of her Majesty and the unanimous ayard . of both the Council and Prize Medala at the Great Exhibition of 1851 . In the Jurors' Eeport , pp . 638 to 641 , are given detailed descriptions of the processes for which the Council Medal was awarded , and of the articles manufactured by the Company , which the Report pronounces fully equal to those made in France . By the Jurors' Reports it is shown that the best producing cocoa countries export the choice of their produce for the markets of France , the high differential duties obliging English manufacturers to be contented with the inferior products of Trinidad , Granada , St . Lucia , & c . This and the practice of adulteration in England , arising principally from competition and low prices , have until recently conferred upon France the monopoly of supplying the world with the different preparations of Chocolate . French manufacturers are prohibited by Government from using deleterious ingredients , hence their superiority , and the universal consumption of Chocolate in that country . In 1850 , their exports of Chocolate , Bonbons , Conserves , & c , amounted to 983 , 350 lbs . ; and the consumption in this country may be increased to almost an indefinite extent by the reduction of prices , which the saving of import duty affords . As an evidence that genuine Chocolate , when attainable and properly prepared , is highly appreciated by the English people , it will be sufficient to refer to the fact that during tho Great Exhibition of 1851 its consumption in the central refreshment court exceeded that of tea or coffee , and it is now almost universally recommended by the medical profession as more couducive to health than any other vegetable production which enters into the human dietary . The following is a copy of the jurors' award : — " Paris Chocolate Company , Regent Street . " Prize Medal awarded for most excellent chocolate confectionary , in a great variety of forms , all of which waa found to be carefully prepared and well flavoured ; and also for an assortment of syrups , which , on dilution , form very agreeable and refreshing beverages . " The following is a copy of the certificate of award : — "Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations , 1851 . " 1 hereby certify that her Majesty ' s Commissioners , upon tho award of the Jurors , havo presented a Prize Medal to tlio Paris Chocolate Company , for chocolate and syrups shown in the ; Exhibition . " Albert , President of tho Royal Commissioners . "Exhibition , Hyde Park , London , Oct . 15 , 1851 . " The Paris Chocolato Company being fully established , find having formed largo and lucrative connexions , it is proponed to extend its operations by the introduction of more capital , through the medium of a Joint-Stock Company , to bo incorporated pursuant to 7 and 8 Vic , cap . 110 , whereby the constitution or tlio Company and the rights and liabilities of its members will bo defined and limited . Tho promoters are tlio represenfatives of the existing Company , which it is intended fo merge into a . Joint-Stock Company of 15 , 000 shares of £ 1 each , to be . fully paid up upon allotment , so as to avoid future , fulls .

A LLSOPP'S PALE ALE & Dr . GLOVER . i \ The circulation given to a statement tending to invalidate the expression of Dr . Glover ' s opinion in favour of Pale Ale , compels Messrs . AlIiSopp and Sons to connect this remarkable distribntion of a calumny -with other insidious attacks upon their firm which they have reason to know proceed from an unworthy and . unneighbonrly jealousy . Messrs . Ailsopp and Sons , in reply , deem it their beat course to adopt the same line of conduct aa in the case of the similar perversion and mutilation of Baron Liebig ' s meaning , so indignantly repudiated by that eminent man himself . They publish , therefore , without abridgment , the letter they received from Dr . Glover ( having his permission to do so ;) a letter the more valuable because it was not intended for publication , and is an unpremeditated evidence of that learned Chemist ' s just appreciation of Pale Ale . DR . GLOVER to MB . ALLSOPP . " Neweastle-on-Tyne , April 11 . " Sir , —It was not my intention , in writing the hasty note to ' The Lancet , " to cast any reflections upon , or to implicate in any way , respectable brewers of Pale Ale . "When I first saw the statement about the alleged use of strychnine in bittering ale , I looked upon the assertion as incredible , both on account of the price of tho drug and the symptoms it would create ; but , on experiment , I found that strychnine possesses such wonderful bitterness , that it might perhaps be used as an adjuvant , at least by unprincipled persons . In short , my object was simply to show that the thing was not altogether so impossible as it appeared at first sight to be . " My opinion is , that hops should not enjoy the exclusive privilege of being used for bittering beer ; but I do not pretend to discuss the point with practical men . " I know there are bitters which might be used beneficially , in a medical point of view . "With regard to analyzing your beer , my time is taken up , so far as analyzing and chemistry are concerned , with two kinds of inquiries—1 st , those which are purely scientific ; and 2 nd , those which are profitable . If you wish , me , in the latter capacity , to analyze and report on your beer , I , of course , can havo no objection . " I have to prepare for an absence of three or four days tomorrow , and to beg you to excuse me replying to the letter of Mr . Bottinger , for which I urn much obliged . —Yours , & c . " H . Allsopp , Esq . " ( Signed ) " R . M . Glovbe . " "P . 8 . —I presume- you will hardly expect me to write to 'The Lancet . ' However , I shall be at homo on Thursday evening , and moat assuredly I have no desire to say anything which could weaken tho confidence of tho public in your beer . But THAT I AM NOT NOW IN THH HABIT OP DUNKING BlTTEIt BeKB , I BUODII ) Blj GLAD TO SHOW MY CONUIDENCB II DBINKINCJ PLENTY OP IT . " Messrs . Allsopp and Sons beg to refer to tho letter of Mr . Henhy Ali . moi'p on this subject , in tho "Monthly Journal of Medical Science" for October , in the concluding paragraph of which it i . s said— ¦ " I inserted Dr . Clover ' s good-natured remark on my Bitter Beer as uu ' incidental testimonial '—no more . I never called it * « , certificate , ' nor did I apply to him , or any other medical gentleman , for one . 1 urn not responsible that such a construction has been placed upon tho oil-hand expressions of good opinion which havo been sent to me from Jill quarters . " Messrs . Ai ^ lsopp and Sons , in conclusion , wish ( o draw tho attention of the public and ( he trade , to tho fact , that , by this disingenuous Byn (; em of attack , and tho nerversions of fiicf . s gratuitously adopted , they are unwillingly < 1 raivn into ( hat publicity the courting of which is made an acauuittioii against thorn . niirlon-on-Trcnl ,, Oct .
