IL The Richmond Examiner thus describes
the new line Of defence taken up by the rebel
army that reiIeated from Manassas. It'll "a line
stretching from the Rappehanncck by grand
circle to Cumberland Gap, In The extreme south
western corner Of the State, embracing the Cen
trail and the Virginia and Tennessee railroads,
the chief cities Of Virginia and the valley Of the
James, with rs canals ard railroads, within Ito
circumference" The Examine farther confe,ses
that this is s'puTey line Of defence assumed
H7p a necessity in view of The great force
which has been collected on the Potomac.

Having had ample opportunity Of testing the
Aersted Bread made by Requa q Co., In this
city, and also of examining the establishment
where 1t is manufactured, l take pleasure in
recommending It to public patronage.
1t possesses the advantages Of perfect clcanli-
ness In the process Of making It, and Of freedom
from all deletcrious mixtures. II also retains :ts
moisture and freshness for several days, and is as
agreeable to the palate at the end OF that time a.

The advantages Of this method are First, that
the bread Is rendered perfectly light without the
addition Of yeast or any other foreign ingredient
and, second, that IL 10 made entirely withou,
handling. From the time the -four leaves the
barrel until the bread leaves the oven Il is no,
touched by the hand. The -four il discharged
into hoppers on the third floor Of the building,
and from the hoppen descends into the boiling
apparatus on the hcor below. After being thor.
oughly re-bolted IL passes into the mixers on the
main floor, the water and salt having been previ.
ously introduced. The mixers are hollow globes
Of cast iron lined with block tin, each mixer hsv
ing capacity Of about Eve or six hundred loaves
While the dough 10 thoroughly agitated by re.
volving arms driven with steam power, It 10 rem.
dered light and porous by the Introduction Of car.
bonic acid gas, under pressure Of one hundred
and forty pounds to the square inch. II is then
drawn out through the faucets into pans resting
on scales, and from thence passes rapidly into the
ovens; the time consumed between the Aour bar.
rel and the oven being little over thirty min.
utes. 1t is found that bread prepared in thi,
manner never becomes Soar, that no change OF
climate imPairs It's quality, and that It does not
become stale like ordinary bread, being nearly a.
fresh and platable after ten or twelve days N on
the day after baking. We can easily understand
that bread prepared in this manner 10 necessarily
pure and palatable As well a. healthful and such
we find to be the opinion Of scientific and medi.
