Londoners Eat Horse Flesh.

A considerable quantity Of horseflesh
is eaten in London. One firm OF
saughterers kill $4,000 horses annual
ly. and they receive the carcasses of
another 10000 which are killed in all
parts of England. Curiously enough,
London is the only town in Great
Britain where the catsmeat man
flourshes, and there appears to be n
surplus of sixty tons of sound horse
flesh weekly of which the cats of the
metropolis do not account for, There
are sixteen licensed butchers in the
metropolis. who are mostly patronized
by Germans and Scandinavians. and
although the trade is carried on sub
rosa, it is limited that a very large
proportion of the timed delicacies
which figure on our breakfast table
owe their origin to the horse.-Londop
