MANUrAcTuRR OF LARD.-The Cincinnati cores.
pendent of the Baltimore Patriot, under date Of :h
March, lS43, says!
We are receiving orders direct from France for
large quantities of Lard. When Monsieur receives
this Western product, he takes it through some
chemical process, and at length turns it to genuine
oil this he snugly bottles in grand Partisan style,
and decorates each with splendid label in this wise:
" Huile fOLiue surfne rGfnee MarseLLe," which
Notwithstanding the gnarantier so modesly added, is
a great deal better for table use than any hutle he
can possibly press out of olives the truth of which
the paates of many Cincinnati epicure can bear
witness This business is extensively carried on by
French manufacturesin Paris and scarce any of the
sweet oil used is made from olives but from the fat of
the occdent porkers Of which we have no right
plain, especially while we supply the West Indies
with butter made OF pressed lard, and send to
France and Spain substitute for their olives. There
we have good markets for our lard, and here they
can lind ready sale for their oil these trades are
therefore, of mutual advantage. and it is to the inter

lard will be consumed by these manufactures, as
well as by those making lard OIL stearne candles and
lard butter" In consideration Of these and other
causes was led to predict in one Of my former let.
tiers that lard would advance in price before the end
of spring trade, and have not in the least changed
the opinion heretofore expressed.
The manufa cture of butter from pressed lard suth
GENTLY palatabe to be in request at the West Indies
is certainly curious incident Ia the discoveries OF
modern science.
OF man and if lard deprived of large portion OF its
oil will make an article similar to good butter adapt
ed to warm climates, which can be eaten at tirst
with relish by the inhabitants of those regions, hab
it will soon render it an indispensable item Of food
while its price will place it within the reach OF ALL
