Corn SUGAR.-A communication will be found
in another portion of this paper, from MIR. O. Per-
kins, of Burlington, who has experimental in the
manufacture of Sugar from corn stalks Although
Mr. Perkins did not fully succeed in the manufac-
ture Of sugar, yet the result of his experiment is
upon the whole, gratifying. Mr.. Perkins is prac-
teal and scientific farmer, and we are glad to learn
that he is determined to investigate this matter by
experiment, until he meets with the desired success.
Several farmers on Gardners Prairie, are making
a trial IN the manufacture of sugar from corn stalks
on a much larger scale than the trial made by Mr.
Perkins. We have been promised the result of
their efforts In this business for the Telegraph II
will be fccoflected that Fir. Eiswor th, Commits
soner of Patents, that one acre of corn pro-
perly planted and cultivated will produce 1000
pounds of sugar. He is regarded as good authority
being gentleman of high literary attainment and
extensive observation. To the people of the west
the subject is one of incaculabe importance-that
who shall be the first successful discoverer of
the true process of manufacturing sugar from this
vegetable should be regarded as benefactor of his
country. Many people are apt to be quite too in,
creduous and to regard with too much Indifference
matters of this kind. 4 few years ago the manu-
,racture of oil from as a business of utility and
nro ar the manufacture of oil sorn lard exceed.
ing in quality the pures, sperm, would have BEEN
looked upol as visionary speculation Within the
last wear the n anufacture of oil from lard, has be-
come an extensive business in Ohio, and doubtless
in less than two years lard oil viii supercede all
others kinds in the west, which are now used for
the purposes of light. That Wisconsin will pro-
duce its own sugar its f-rt.le prahies within the
next six years, nay be thought wild stretch III the
ina gnation; but in this day and age of invention
and improvement, the mind must be prepared to
see much realized, that is now surrounded with
doubt and vague impossibilities.

claims Governor Davis may have TO the
confidence of the people, in his regard for

way to the superior claims of Mr.. Tall

The WEATHER.-So far as judge from
our exchanges, there has been great contrast in
the weather this fall, between Wisconsin and the
Eastern States. We learn from the New York
papers, that severe frost experienced over al
most the entire state, on the evening of Friday the
OBJ of September last. Indian corn and vegetation
Ia general suffered severely. The cars on the diff
lerent rail roads were much impeded by the slip
ping of the wheels on the rails caused by the frost
The weather for several days previous the 23d,
says the New York Tribune, had been cold and
windy, and bore the aspect of chilly Novembcr.-
On the 23d, fell throughout the interior of the
State of New York; and whitened some of the
hills.
In this Territory during the past thirty days we
have had with little exception, a succession of plea
SAINT days, bright sunshine and bland atmosphere.
The injury which vegetation has received the pres
ent fall, has been from dry weather than from
frost

We regret to learn that our subscribers at Bur-
lington and Rochester do not regularly receive the
Telegraph the week of its publication. Our
papers for Rochester and Burlington are mailed
regularly on Thursday mornings, and are sent to
Elkhorn, with the expectation that they will be
brought to Burlington and Rochester on Saturday,
by the mail returning from GAINESVILLE to Racine
Through remissness of duty the part of Post
masters or other circumstances which we have not
yet been able to learn, the Telegraph, in in

places in less than weeks after its publication.
The cause of this rregularity will be enquired into
and we shall endeavor to make arrangements to
remedy the existing evil.

DEMOCRATIC ELECTORS OF RACINE
co.
Beware Of False RPpOrtN

We have just seen an Address sent out purport-
ing to be from the Democratic County Correspond
ing Committee, calling upon you support the
Democratic Nominations made on the 9Th of Sept.
at Kelloggs,
We pronounce said Address to be False as ema-
mating from We never authorized the issuing
of said address, and part of said committee abso
lutely refused to sign it, giving that it
contained statements which they believed untrue,
and calling upon Democrats to do that which we
ourselves were not willing to do.
We know not who were the authors of said Ad-
dress but we believe it emanated from
where much has been done, which has been means
of doing more to ruin the party than any thing else
beside There are those who assume to be the
Leaders of the Democratic Party in this county,
that Democrats, did they know them, would blush
to own them as such. We made to say things
in said address, which is calculated to deceive and
deude Electors who are not acquainted with the
facts therein set forth.
