8 LAGER BEER.

Tho most extensive entadlisbment in which lager beer Ye made in the United States is the Lion Brewery of thie city, eo called from the Jurges: manufactory of the Windat Munich, Bavaria, Ts is eituated on sixteen acres ef grownd, between 107th and iovin streets ond Gighth and Ninth avenues, just at tho hoad of tae Central Park, The building ws of the most subdstantiat kind, and is very large. it meneures about $00 feet in front, and Ww 160 for deep. Two years igo the brothers Spoyers, Becing vas, quantltics of Dad lager deer Wy demand, cou eeived the ides of ereuting this brewery, im order to pro duce a better article, which they considered their large eapital, the large quantity @f beer made together, their superior muchivery, the manufactore of their own malt, and their euperios knowledge of the business, would en adie them W do, They are doch Germans, bas one of them, Albert, bas been eighteen or twenty yeors in this country, Which time he hae spent, for the moat part, us a trader among the Rocky Mouutaius, where he nies ou- merous adventures, at one time, gingie-handed aad on Sooi, Sghiing and putting w flight cievea mounted Mext ean robbers who altempted to rob the mail, end at ao ather time, with ten companions bebiod bis wagoos, sostuning 2 combat from eunrige to sungst, against peventy (ive savages, leaving twenty-five dead on two field—an account of which appeared. many years ago in tbe New Yoru Huns, copied from a Mexicaa joarow, ‘This geaeoman, with hia brother and oae or two other friends, have, it is stated, inveated in the Lion Brewery early balf 4 million of dollars. Tne building was erec'- ed without sn architect and without a contractor, aud gave adout throe hundred mec employment ia the hard tnee. It is juet a your since they made their fret brew: Ing, ana vow they cansot eupyly the demand. We bs seen an order frou & house in New Orlesas for two thou: sand barrels for this season, io be forwarded by mail gteamer as required. The linger meaatactured dy this establishment is found to stand the tropics, every other lagor beer tried there having failed. They use only the best hope, which cost double the price of com- mon, and they manufacture their own mals, and therefore ean be eure of the quality. Their malt ia made from Cali- fornix barley (which is of & peculiarly long shaped grain), Englieb, Swedish and other imported barley, which are found to be best adapted for the porpose. While they can get barley grown in this State for 70 or 80 wents per bushel, they pay $1 20 for imported. Hera barley is not grown epecialiy for malting as it is in Bog Jand and ciber couvtrics. To be good for the parpose it maues be grown either i virgin soil, che produce of waich % free from apy bad flavor, or it must be grown on laud prepared witb certain kinds of manure and ine certain manner. For instance, there ie oae kind of manure which would give so rank a fievor tothe malt that it could not be used at all iu the manuiacture of beer, Tae brothers ‘Speyers bave now in port from Copenbagen 50,000 bushels of barley. Many other brewers eilher purchase 'the mals siready made, or they make it of any kind of barley. Woen the materials are of good quality and tha beer is properly manufactured, it requires no adulteration to make it clear and creamy, such as goda, isinglass and rosin, 80 injurious to the kidweye; and if fairly treated it will not gurn sour, 28 So musk of the lager does, We will ow describe the interior of the buildiag, the machisery and the process by which lager is made at the Lion Brewery. ‘The building is Ave etorice bigh, the lower part of stove and the upper of brick.

Some very good payer—four months to rau—bas been sold to-day at niue per cent; and ‘with the exception of vory choive lines indeed, we sboald any that, at present, eight per cent is the rate for papor over SO days, The best short acceptances go at seven per cent; second class names at 9 to 12, ascording to dates &o. On call, money is abundant enough at 5406. Tho present activity in the money market arisoa chiefly from the action of the banks, which are wisely contiauing to contract; and, in order to do so, are calling ja the demand Yoanr they have out on mercantile paper. This floods tho market at @ time when there is really yory little new paper making, and enables the strong houses to Mx their own price for money. Should the specie shipmenis cease, and the banks get rid of the paper which they hoid as collateral for loans, i would be dificult co sustain the present rates for meney, eapecially as it is so much cheaper in Egland. Tnere is very little doing in the ex change market. The correspondent of tho Rothschilds has raieed his rate to 1104 for 60 day bills and 110624 for sight, Jess the usual commission to brokers; the other leading drawers are holding at about the samo rates. But they are selllug no bills. The prevaiting impression appears to bo that, for the present, the wants of the importers have been gappiled, aud that very fow remittances will go forward for the next week or two; the amount ofbusiness done in foreign exchange during the past fortnight has been uu aually large. It seoms to be expected that the steamer New York, on Saturday, wil! take little or no specie. Ship- pers would have to be their own underqritera’ agains! Josaes by capture, as the leading insurance companies ‘Will not insure against such a riek; and It ia evident, from the fureign papers, that a declaration of war by franco against the German cities might take place at any mo- ment. ‘The stock market wae better to-day. The presidents of the leading roads bsve been in session all day at the St. ‘Nicholas, and some orders which appeared in the stroét for Weatern stocks were said to be based upon the expec- tation that they would at last settle their difficulties and raise fares. Up to the closing of business hours no geitie- ment had been made. But it appears to be goneraily expected that something will be done, or that the leading presidents will resign office. For, having come as near to @ settlement as they have done, the question cf 40 per cent on freighta being the only one now in dispute, the public would infer, if they again parted to continus the war, that the chief obstacle in the way of a compromiss was the porsonal bostility of the rival managers toward cack other. And though none will dispute tho ability, either of Me. Corning or Mr. Thomson, the very beat friende of both must admit that the sacrifice of these gon- tiemen would be a calamity of lees magnitude than the ruia of the New York Oontral and Pennsylvania raiiroads. It is to be hoped that bath moy be avoided, aud that the Convention will at length decide upon a com.
