In one of the flour-mills the machinery seemed as perfect as in the biscuit factory at Portsmouth by some ingenious mechanism the flour was cooled, barrelled, and branded with great celerity. At an iron-foundry I was surprised to find that steam-engines and flour-mill machinery could not be manufactured fast enough to meet the demand.
