Among  the  many  curiosities  to  be  seen  in  London  few
will  be  found  more  interesting  to  the  agriculturist  than
a  visit  to  one  or  other  of  the  great  breweries.  The  fol-
lowing statement  of  the  malt  used  by  the  most  eminent
Ijondon  brewers  in  one  year,  is  supposed  to  be  an  average
of  the  consumption  for  some  years  past : —

ters of  malt  are  brewed  daily.  Among  the  many  vats,  one
is  pointed  out  containing  3500  barrels  of  porter,  whicli,  at
the  selling  price,  would  yield  9000^.  The  water  iised  is
drawn  from  a  well  367  feet  deep.  One  hundred  and  eighty
horses  are  employed  in  the  cartage  department.  They  are
brought  principally  from  Flanders,  cost  from  50^.  to  80^.
each,  and  are  noble  specimens  of  the  cart-horse  breed.
