The Southland Times. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1868.
The Amateur Concert at the Theatre Boyal last night, notwithstanding it was got up at a few hours notice, was most successful. Everything went off well, and the house was well filled in both parts. It will be observed from our advertising - columns, that a meeting of those favorable to a Caledonian Gathering in January next, is called for to-night at the Albion Hotel. Those who are fond of lavishing their praises . on the salutary effects of "English malt liquors, will be astonished at an exposition made in the London Scientific Beview of the injurious compounds detected in the various English porters, ales, and beers submitted to investigation. It found such ingredients as cream of tartar, alum, green vitrol, small quantities of copper, sometimes lead, nitric acid, cocculus icdicus, grains of paradise, coloring matter of various descriptions, quassia wood, and other cheaper snd more hurtful bitters, together with the harmless, but still Jieedless compounds, liquorice, molasses, coriander, capsicum, carroway- seeds, ginger, salt, malted horsebeans, ke., are freely wed.
