These abbatoirs are exceedingly well conducted, and re-
turn a revenue of between 40,0001. and 50,000/. a- year.
They are described by an intelligent writer in the fol-
lowing. i ..-

It is no less than 1,074 feet in length, and 384 in depth,
and is watered by sluices from the Ourcq. On entering
it, the stranger perceives no disagreeable smell ; he wit-
nesses no disgusting sight, and often he would not sus-
pect the purpose to which theibuilding is devoted. The
English traveller should not fail to visit these useful
edifices. He will return with a wish to reform those
nuisances, and abodes of cruelty, filth, and pestilence,
which disgust him in the capital of his own country.
The other abattoirs of Paris are—that of Menii-
montant, which is about 870 feet long by about 750 in
breadth; the abattoir de Grenelle, about 600 feet long
by 480 ; and the abattoirs of Ville juii and Roule,
which are somewhat smaller. In-all of them there are
certain great principle& kept in view, namely, sufficient
isolation from inhabited buildings—a spacious area—
proper inspection—thorough cleanliness, and a large
supply of water. When sanatory police is better
understood in this country than it is at present, our
public bodies will be more alive to the importance of
this subject; and no better example could be followed
than that afforded by the city of Paris.—Liverpool
