The Industries of DublinHistorical, statistical, biographicalAn account of the leading business men, commercial interests, wealth and growth . of especial interest demanding noiice is the back loft,wherein are nine fermenting , capable of holding one brewingeach of 36,000 gallons. Then we enter the fine still-houe enclosing sixpot stills, two of which are supposed to be the in the world. Thestills, which are kept brightly polished, are fitted with sight-glasses, throughwhich can be seen the boiling; liquor. There avc four of Mortons refri-gerators, which are also kept brightly polished. Mounting another stairs,our trouble is repaid in looking down uj^oi^ the three wrought-iron wormtubs containing the condensing coils of the stills. Descending, we enterthe can-jiit, or sampling-room, and are shown the safe, which is beauti-fully finished, and was made on the premises from a desis;n by Mr. Angus,the late distiller and manager, to test and separate the distillations, whichare then received in oak receivers beneath the floor. When finished,the whisky is conducted by p pes to the spirit stores and filled into. the rollers ol which measure 3 ft. by 18 in., and have the enormouscapacity of grinding a hundred barrrls an hour each. Kntering the brew-house, our reward is ample in scing the large mash-tuns, 7 ft. 6 in. lack-leaded and kept in the most peifect order. Ihcvalv
