Tizard , late Manager of the Nine Elms Brewery , Vauxhall ; Author of " The Theory and Practice of Brewing Illustrated , " Patentee of the Mashing Attemperator , &c . The vast superiority in the strength and flavour of the malt liquors of Great Britain over those of other countries is universally admitted , and arises , not as commonly supposed , from any peculiarity of climate but from the exclusive use of the best materials , and the care and attention bestowed in their manufacture . The quality of the water is , no doubt , a point of considerable importance ; but an analysis ot the water of Paris sliows it to be equal , if not ouporior , to that of T , ondon for all the purposes of brewing , and , in some instances , similar to that used in the manufacture of the celebrated Burton ales . Excellent barley aud hops being equally at command , tho superiority of the English beers can only arise from the causes already mentioned . Tho Great Paris Brewery is therefore established with a firm conviction that , with sufficient capital , tho use of tho best materials , caro and attention in tho manufacture , and tho adoption of tho most improved machinery , beer can bo produced in Franco of a quality equal to tho British , and of the various kinds so justly famed under the names of Scotch and Edinburgh Ales , Bitter Ale , London Porter , and Dublin Stout . Thus tho Scotch Ale may bo represented by " Ln Uicre Impenalo , " the Bitter Ale by " La BiiVo de Santo , " &c . The consumption of boor in Paris and its vicinity is rapidly increasing , particularly amongst tho middle- and labouring classes , from a growing conviction that it is more conducive to their health and strength than their low-priced wines and spirits , oven when unadulterated . Tho manufacture , therefore , of a superior description of boor to that in common line , winch may bo accomplished at tho present or a triflingly hi g her price , would not only cause an increased demand , but , in a great , measure , Huporsodo the inferior article ; and when tho petty breweries of Paris are , compared with the vast establishments in London , and tho enormous fortunes realized by their owners , the . success of tho present undertaking can hardly admit of a doubt , nor any limit ; ba assigned to its operations , extensive orders being anticipated from Algeria and other French colonies , California , &e . Without , any dcxiro to excite undue expectations , it may bo Mated , that aliuoHt every Company in Paris , where directed b y English nkill and energy , has been eminently successful ; and it , i » by the advice of t . lioso French K enllomon who intend to become members of this Association , that , the ConHeil do Surveillance is composed exclusively of English residents in Paris .

Shortly after the Meeting of Parliament will bo published , A NEW WEEKLY F AMILY JOURNAL , PRICE SIXPENCE . THE CIVIL SEEVICE GAZETTE . It is proposed to establish the CIVIL SERVICE GAZETTE with the following Especial Objects : — 1 . To advocate the cause and protect the interests of all Civil Officers and Clerks in the employ of the Government . 2 . To expose abuses existing in any department of the Public Service , boldly giving publicity to the facts of each case , and discussing them in a vigorous yet temperate spirit . 3 . To report promptly and accurately all appointments , making them the subject of contemporaneous comment , and watching jealously all Government Patronage . 4 . To call the attention of Her Majesty ' s Ministers to cases where long and meritorious services have been inadequately requited and unjustly neglected . 5 . To fearlessly unmask all nepotism , favouritism , undue family influence , without regard to the political opinions of any existing Administration . 6 . To assist Gentlemen who seek Government Appointments , by supplying the earliest information on the subject of all vacancies , and to protect them from , the frauds attempted by anonymous advertising agents . Although established more especially with a view to elevate the position and redress the grievances of the employes of the Government , the CIVIL SERVICE GAZETTE will also advocate the interest of the officers of the Army and Navy , of the Military and Civil Departments of the Hon . East India Company , of those engaged in the service of the Bank of England —• in Railway—Life and 3 ? ire Insurance—and all incorporated Companies . It will seek , in short , to bring to the aid of these classes the enlightened force of " public opinion , " which in a free country , is both sword and shield—the true redresser of grievances—the sanctuary of the oppressed—the chivalry of the nineteenth century . Writers of great eminence have tendered their cordial cooperation . The Paper , consisting of 2-A pages , will include original Literary Articles , Reviews of New Works and Magazines , a Summary of the News of the Week , an Obituary of Men of Eminence or Desert in the Public Service , Parliamentary , Legal , Commercial , Foreign , Domestic , Theatrical Notices , University and Fashionable Intelligence . In short , nothing will be omitted that will tend to make it a complete Newspaper , and an instructive and entertaining Periodical . In no column will anything be found unfit for the perusal of every member of a family . In its religious opinions it will endeavour , avoiding all theological controversy , to breathe a spirit of unsectarian Christianity , and welcome that spirit in others . There are nearly 16 , 000 employe ' s in London alone , in addition to those holding office under Government in the Diplomatic Service , Customs , Excise , and Post Office throughout Great Britain and the Colonies . It is a fact , though not one as yet sufficiently notorious , that the most incapable are promoted through interest , the most able and meritorious neglected from the want of it ; that golden sinecures , are held by the wealthy , while a miserable stipend ia often the sole reward of the toilsome labours of the indigent . ^ We seem to have lost what is termed by Milton " that part ot our freedom which consists in the civil rights and advancement of every person according to h : s merits . " On independent grounds , then , with uncompromising boldness , but with due courtesy of language , with no respect of persons , vet without private prejudice , by a wide collation of facts , and a fair use of argument , the CIVIL SERVICE GAZETTE will urge on tho existing Administration , whether- Whig or Tory-, the necessity , not of those petty curtailments of salary , which , in the words of Macauluy , " bring on a Government the reproach of meanness , without producing any perceptible relief to the finances ; " but of such an equitable , adjustment of official income , and such a wise expenditure of tho Revenue as may conduce no less to tho Public Intercut than to private welfare of tho Public servants . With these objects in view , the proprietors of the CIVIL SERVICE GAZETTE invite tho attention of all classes of tho community to their projected Journal , and earnestly aHk the co-operation of that class to whoso cause it is especially devoted . Subscribers' Names and all Communications to bo forwarded to the Editor , fi , Catherine Street ,, Strand ; or the Publisher , Mr . Joseph Smith , 4 !) and 52 , , Long Acre .
