The International Exhibition: sugar-refining apparatus of Messrs. Caile and Co. of Paris, 1862. European machine processing sugar cane from the colonies. 'These gentlemen have manufacturing establishments on the largest scale in Paris, Valenciennes, Douay, Brussels, and Amsterdam; besides agencies and depots in Russia, Havannah, and many other places. They employ about 5000 workmen. This company have been noted in tropical regions for the goodness of their workmanship and, the advanced state of its scientific perfection, besides being the introducers in their own and other countries of useful inventions made, or which they have encouraged others to make, in various branches of industry. The system of vacuum apparatus, together with all the requisite mechanical appliances for actually forwarding the progressive steps by which sugar is now either produced from juice or subsequently refined from raw sugar may be seen in the western annexe. In the Belgian and French departments respectively an inspection of the graduated operations by which juice or syrup ultimately becomes a refined crystal of sugar will be found instructive, but a detailed knowledge can only be accurately acquired by inspecting the systems of mechanism exhibited at the place'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
