W. H. Ball, Linen Inspector, deer
s4- -On Saturday the 13th of June last,
accompanied by Dr. McMieking, Ipro-
ended to the Albion Hotel, and called
for awe glosses of the new drink, hating
bee. served I put my glass in a bottle,
tied called for another, which I drank
imperil ; I paid the bartender 15 eta. fur
the three glosses ; accompanied by Dr.
McMicking I proceeded to Rbynaa's
drug More, having asked the doctor on
the roma if he mend analyse that ; he
answered that he oouid not bet that the
druggist might, on asking Mr. Rhynes,
he said he could nut ; I then had the
bottle sealed in the peewees of the three
of es •ud seat it by express to Losdon
to the public analyst Mr. Saunders,
from whom I received the analysis bore
headed in. Document received and filed.
1 afterwards proceeded to London and
brought back the bottle aid tbe boz in
which it Lad been snaked ; my r,asun
for sending the liquor to London to be
analysed was that it was • liquid some-
what similar to strong lager beer, highly
(atpngneied with lope, as I thought to
destroy the taste of the alcohol. [The
bottle and the box were -then put in,
and also a copy of the seal.)

Dear fin or six yams ago, and tt
was between 3 and 4 p.c. ; rat was made
4 per cent. ; there was than a trial as to
whetherbeer was intoxicating, sad
I was sale give evidence as to the
proportion of alcohol in it ; I have
analysed what is called "Blue Ribbon
Beer ' ; I did so yesterday for Mr.
D411.... ; I have found alcohol in "Blue
Ribbon Beer" ; I mere two eepante
analysis , the res contained 2.182 by
weight, equal to 2.731 by volume , the
other ample a,ntained 2.402 by weight,
equal to 3 004 by volume ; I have nut
amide any other auslyeis of Canadian
beer or ales.
To Mr. Biggar -An ordinary quern
beer bottle contain about 24 ounces ; if
filled with the liquid I examined yester-
day it would contain .bout 7 drachms ar
j of an ounce of alcohol ; whisky contains
usually about egnal pstilLA skkthol and
water ; sometimes there 1s mem � it
when it is retailed (latt*Isr); a bottle
of aha beer would hold about equal to
a wine -glass full, or about the sixth of •
tumbler full, or less than two table-
spoonfuls of alcohol ; I don't think that
amount of it would affect me ; when
strong liquor is taken the effect is mon
pronounced than when it is diluted,
for the reason that the stomach may not
he able to hold enough diluted ; it has
the same effect diluted ur concentrated
if the same quantity is in the stomach
.t the same time ; I think it would be
more rapid if administered nearly pore
than of diluted, but I do nut know frets
any experience ; I didn't know the effect
of a umbining ginger ale or other efferves-
cent drinks with strong liquors ; alcohol
is the only principle in the beer that
would intoxicate ; the other substances
are .hat would he termed nutritive ;
[The wither hen described the menu -
are of beer.]
Where • bottle re imperfectly corked,
there would be a danger of second fer-
mentation, and that would increase the
quantity of alcohol M the •sponse of the
saccharase matter ; for the result of the
fermentation is the fortmattoo of alcohol
of carbolic acid ; a bottle half full and
well corked would not readily sour, al-
though the alcoholic fermentation would
be likely to go on ; fermentation 11 &cosl-
eratd by heat, and would take place
mon rapid) in warm wetherthan oold;
I don't think this would account for the
entire aifference between the samples
which I analysed oe June 22nd and July
2nd ; it might account for & decimal. but
not fur one per cent.; I estimated the
alcohol on the 19th or 20th of June, in
Mr. Ball's sample ; I think I first opened
it on the day I examined it for alcohol ;
I think the effect of an apprectable quan-
tity of sour tomato catsup would be to
sour the beer and hasten the formation
of alcohol ; if kept in . warm place the
sourness of the beer would be hastened,
and the amount of alcohol increased ; it
would be the same if the bottle had been
carried uncorked ; the specimens of
"Blue Ribbon Beer ' I ez•mind yester-
Wag
about half full when I sent it away ; 1
got the bottle back from Mr. Saunders
himself on Saturday, the 27th of June ;
I brought the bottle to Rhymes unoork-
d, sod got a onrk then ; I don't know
whether it was a new oork or an old
one. I took the bottle home, and kept
it in my private room under lock and
key, until two days afterwards, when I
expressed it to London; I got It about
noun on Saturday and ant Monday ful-
lowtoogg, the 16th Joe* ; the box was not
sea:ad, but amply tied, but the bottle day had rather lees alcohol than lager ;
was sealed ; I told nobody whet w••111 perhaps one-fourth or one-fifth lees ; it is
the box. It was too late on Saturday a very liubt beer. [Mr. Biggar hen
to send the bottle away to the analyst, took up • book, and held forth as
follows : - "Porter as drunk in
