A milkman was a l trifle unforfcuuato during his afternoon round yesterday and had his liquor distributed. in' a; manner that-waS wasteful and unprofitable. It appears that the horse attached to his cart took a sudden fancy to do the round ou its own account and beforethe owner had timo to protest, had placed about 100 yards distanco between them...

Prom a letter received from a correspondent at Moraahana, it will be seen that tho brewing industry on modern principles is making considerable progress in Japan. For many years the Japaneso have consumed large quantities of a strongly alcoholic beverage called ■' sake" made from rice. With the arrival ot large numbers of Englishmen, Gormanß, and Amerioans-in Japan, oaine a demand for beers of tho European type, "and the light bottom fermentation beers brewed in Germany wore preferred to the heavier and hipre alcoholic English beers.. - Tho tasto : for these beors spread from tho Enropean residents to the natives, and now the Japs have bceome regular beer drinkers. As the Co3.t of imported beer is to'a great extent prohibitive, efforts have been made to establish breweries •in Japan'on tho Gorman system. Our correspondent points out that good barley is grown in jhe country, and lie suggests fcliat Japanese rioe being very gelatinous, is especially adapted to the gelatinising prbcojs now so generally adopted in this country, and : from- such a material ho considers tho dcßiil-d quality of beer . could bo, producod/-Brown's' Guardian]
