EXTRACTS.

SUPPLY OF BREAD.

"ALL great and populous towns procure the neceffaries of life from a greater or less distance; and the richest and most fertile province is not competent to supply products in fuch quantities and variety as to fatisfy the demands of the population and the luxury of thofe enormous piles of buildings: the ordinary articles of confumption, however, they ufually draw from the parts adjacent The district in VOL. V.-No. LI.

which St. Petersburg ftands is fo greatly behind in agriculture and gardening, as to be obliged to fetch its fupply of provifions entirely from a diftance. Not only the objects of extravagance, but even the fimpleft neceffaries of life, for upwards of two hundred thousand per fons, are produced in foreign, and in part very diftant climes. Were it not for the large and invaluable communications by water, it would be impoffible to provide for the fuftenance of St. Petersburg; at present it is a fource of industry to a numerous clafs of people who make it their peculiar bufinefs and the exchange of the products for money and wrought commodities, is the means of diftributing the collective wealth of the refidence, by thousands of petty channels, into the remoteft provinces.

Bread, that prime and most general from the countries bordering on the neceffary, is brought to St. Petersburg Volga. Both rye and wheaten bread are eaten here: the latter is the common food of even the lowest and poorest claffes. The goodness of it naturally in part depends on the manner of its preparation, and accordingly varies very much. On the whole, the baking here is good, and often excellent, it being impoffible any where, even in Paris, to eat better bread than here. At the tables of the great, and in what are called good houses, only wheat bread is eaten; and what a confiderable article this at times may be, is apparent from the housekeeping of Count Razumoffky; where, in far cheaper times, the confumption of the feveral-kinds of bread alone, came an
