AsnLAsDi--The 18th of April, the birthday Of
the ilustrious Clay, has become one of the sacred
days Of the Republic. Now that he is dead, pos
terity viii do justice to his talents and virtues.-
Henry Clay Societies have been formed In various
parts of the country and each return Of the day is
celebrated without the distinction Of party that
stood between him and the highest earthly honor.
The Society formed in the Slashes Of Hanover,
the scene Of his birth and earliest mill boy his
tory, propose to celebrate the next anniversary
with greater than usual eciat The beautiful vii
hge of Slash Cottage, on the line of the Richmond
and Fredericksburg Railroad, viii on that day be
dedicated or inaugurated into town, with all the
ceremonies appropriate to such an illustrious oc-
casion.
1t is expected that the President of the United
States and other distinguished persons from this
city will honor themselves and the occasion by their
presence which, if SO, is most credtable to their
good taste, good sense, and liberalty. Independ-
ent of most delightful trip, and an opportunity
of seeing Old Virginia it is, they win show, by .
simple act, most grateful to the peculiar admirers
of the great Commoner, that the asperities of life
do not follow the subject to the grave The beauty
and the chivalry of the Old Dominion win be there.
The representative of State power and pride will be
there The pusation of millions of free hearts will
be warmer and quicker on that day. The man aud
the character are national and have become the
national property. Why, then, should not the
representative of nationality participate in 80 glo-
rious proceeding?
Ii has been suggested that the President might
fear Of being accused of electioneerng, and 30 he
might be by captious and designing men. We be-
Eevc notl We hope not And though we cannot
be accused of any particular admiration friend
ship for the or his advisers, we do think that
they have enough character to stand such or
deal. A refusal on such grounds would show far
more of the weakness of humanity than to 60.
To Mr.. Edwin Robinson, President of the Rail
Road Company, aud one of the proprietors of the
premises, great credit is due-frst for being in
strumental in thus honoring the sage of ashland
and next for having beautifed the ground thus
forever made classic.

THE LITTLE MONSTER IN YOUR SUGAR.

The sugar acarus approaches somewhat. in
organization and habits, to the lousc and the
itch-nsect itself, Which are also included in
the genus Acarus. The sugar mite is in
size SO considerable, that it is plainly visible
to the unailcd sight. When present in su-
gar it may be detected by the following pro-
ceeding: Two or three spoonsful of sugar
should Ike dissolved in large wines glass of
tcpid water, and the solution allowed to re-
main at rest for an hour or so; at the end
Of that time the animalcules will be found.
some OH the surface of the liquid, some ad-
herring TO the sides of the glass. and others
at the bottom, mixed up with the dark and
copious sediment. The body is oval, or
rather somewhat ovate, being broader be-
hind than before. From its posterior part
proceed four long and stiff bristIcs, two to-
gether on each side, and some eight or ten
smaller ones are arranged nearly at equal
distances around the circumference of the
body; from its anterior part proboscus Of
complex organization proceeds, and from its
inferior surface eight legs, joined and fur
nished with spines or hairs at each ar:icula-
ton: the spine, which issues from the last
joint but one of each leg, is very long, and
extends much beyond the termination Of the
leg ITSELF Lastly, each leg is armed at the
extremity with formidable hook. The
acarus sacchari clings TO life with great te-
nacity, for warm water does not always kill
it. Hence, those who sweeten their drinks
with brown sugar must swallow several of
these disgusting insects in a living state, for
the heat of the beverage is not sufficient to
destroy them. For the consolation of our
readers, VIC are happy to announce that this
insect is never found in purified, i. e. lump
sugar. 1t owes its existence and nutriment
to the albumen, which, as We said before,
is always present in inferior sugars. 1t is
we'll known that grocers are subject to an
affection of the skin, denominated, "grocer's
itch." of which one Of the symptoms is ex-
treme irritation and itching. To this disease
all grocers are not equally liable, but those
particularly who are engaged in the ahan.
ding" Of sugars, as tho warehousenen.
Now the acdrus saccl.ari belongs to the
same genus as tho acaras scaJiei, or itch
insect, than which it Is larger, and possessed
of an organization still more formidable and
forbidding. .-English paper. " -,
