MAPLE SUGAR.

The superiority Of fine white maple sugar,
over the dark chocolate colored article often
seen, and the higher price, and reader sale
it commands in market. render very desirable
the knowledge of the cheapest and best mode
of manufacture. Some of the best sugar,
which has obtained the premiums OF the State
Agricultural Society. has been made white
and pure by re-disso:ving that which was first
made, subjecting it to the purifying process.
and again evaporlting; and in making the
very best this process has been repeated, ma
king it necessary to evaporate three times,
before the sugar has become perfectly white.
Some was exhibited at the State Fair at Uti-
ca, which by the use of the strictest cleaDli-
ness throughout. and corporations in pans'
was as white as loaf sugar. with only one
repetition of the evaporating process.

cate 10 that effect, bur the premium shall go
to the man that presents the next best This
will render the competition much more ac-

scented. The premiums, also, will be widely
scattered over the County.
Another new feature consists in the offer

The DUTY ON WooL-Mr. Walkers

Persons who have seen an abstract OF the
new tariff bill will smile at the cool impru-
dence of the aboveparagraph. Mr. Walkers
scheme reduces The duty on fine wool from

what will be effected of this ? The wool

The increase oflhe duty on coarse wool can
not benefit him. for there is no wool produced
in the United States ESQ far as we know
which is not worth more than the poor wool
imported from South America, and even il
there were, 20 per cent would be no protec-
ton The American wool grower will
thus be much worse off under the new tariff
than the old one.

IT'S bright where'er the hearts;

Der which affection glidcs;

When Loves the star that guides.

Ills sunlight to its ripping stream
And soft dew to its flower.
