The introduction of the Chinese sugar cane
into the United States has been attended with
the most perfect success. 1t bids fair to give
the great staple almost without money and
without price, The present high rate of this
necessary article of diet with us, should call
the attention of agriculturists to the new plant.
Speaking of this cane, the Washington Star says:
''The conclusion to which we have come is
that in ten years from this time, the United
States will be large exporter of sugars made
from it. Out of thousands of experiments made
with the cane in question, not dozen have
proved unsuccessful. That is, all the rest have
demonstrated that families engaged in agfieal-
ture, can manufacture an excellent quality OF
sugar for domestic purposes, at less than the
cost of the supply of the Louisiana or West India
sugar they would otherwise require; the labor
of grinding the cane not being greater and not
requiring more skill than that of grinding APP
pies for cider, and that of distilling the sugar
IRON the juice not being more troublesome or
difficult than the preparation of '.appe butter''
from cider. The cane grows equally well from
Alabama to Maine, on any land that will pro-
duce Indian corn. Indeed, any land that will
produce Indian corn, is found to produce o
more abundant yield of Chinese sugar cane.
"Under such crcumstances-and these arc
all established facts we'll known by all reading
agriculturists to be such-within three or four
years. the production of sugar from this cane
for family consumption, will be almost as uni
versal in this country, as the production on each
farm of the Indian corn necessary for its pur-
poses Improved machinery for grinding it and
boiling the juice will also as surely be speedily
invented and come into use. If. without any
machinery designed for the special purpose, its
capabilities have been SO thoroughly and salts
factorily demonstrated, there is really no telling
what it will prove worth to the country at large
Gov l,ok 10 hna i1xr
exporters of the product we have no earthly
doubt nor can it be possible that its cultivation
in the United States will fail to work as great
a revolution in the sugar trade of the world as
the successful introduction of the cotton plant
in our Southern States has certainly made in
the trade in all articles with which cotton goods
have come into competition"

WTT AND HAPPINEss.-The is no necessary
connection between witty or even humorous
ideas and comfortable state of mind. Swift
was unhappy and johnson morose, though both
were great wits. Hood was extremely subject
to low spirits, and Cowper, it is well known,
wrote "John Gilpin," not because he was in a
merry mood, but to ''keep up' against his ha-
bitual tendency to melancholy. Liston, the
greatest of comic actors. suffered extremely from
mental depression; and Lyman Blanchard, one
of Punch's best humorists, blew his own brains
out, leaving Douglas Jerrold to finish the fa-
nous "Caudle Lectures" which the former had
begun. With the single exception Of Swift, who
was disappointed politician, these men were
all invalids, whose animal spirits we're impaired
by disease, and who themselves groaned over
the "happy fancies" which set the rest of the
world laughing.

Utah Territory.
WASHINGTON. MAJ

WASHINGTON, March l9th.
A letter was received here to-day from w. w.
Drummond, United States Supreme Judge in
Utah Territory, by the administration. 1t gives
a sad and deplorabe picture of matters in that
Territory The following is taken from the
letter:
"The leading men of the church are more
traitorous than ever. Only q few days since
all the papers, records, dockets, and nine hun
dred volumes Of the laws. were taken out of
the Supreme Court Clerks Office and burned.
And this is not the only instance of the kind.
say to you again, and through you to the
President, it is impossible for us to enforce the
laws of this territory. Every man here holds
his life at the will of Brigham Young; and here
we are without protection. | am firmly Of
opinion that Babbitt was murdered by Mormons
under direction of Brigham Young, and not by
Indians. Murder is a common thing here, and
Mormons cannot be punished with Mormon
jury, witnesses, officers, and Governor to par
don. 1t is too cruel and must not be endured.
A man, not a member of the church, is muir
dered, robbed, castrated and imprisoned, solely
for questioning the authority of the church.
Persons are now in the Penitcntiary, convicted
before the Probate Judge, who are wholly in
nocent of any crime. Is there any other coun-
try where this abuse is or would be endured?
Let all, then, take hold and crush out one of the
most reasonable organizations in America"
The administration have had the matter un-
der serious consideration. and will soon appoint
a Governor, understand, who will take sufi-
cient military force into that territory to carry
out the laws to the fullest extent.

MOVEMENT OF TRooPs ON THE PLAINs.-Troops
are to cross the plains this spring for the protec
ton of the overland emigrants bound for Oregon
and California Orders have been issued for the
4th Infantry, now Stationed in Oregon, to move
across the country, constructing the road, for
which appropriations have been made. The
companies of the 9th Infantry, now at Forts
Kearney and LeavenwOrth, are to follow up the
Platte valley, in the old Oregon trail, and go
through the mountains at the South Pass. The
companies stationed in Kansas are TO embark
at Fort Leavenworth, and ascend the Missouri
in boats to Fort Benton-there to remain until
relieved by the 4th Infantry, some time in the
summer, when they too. will move across over
the route passed over by them on their march
from Oregon.

DoINGs AT ST. DoMrNGo.--A correspondent of
the N. Y. Herald writing from st. Domingo OH
the 7th of February, says:
81 have only time for few lines by an unex-
pected opportunity. Mr.. Elliot, who returned
here in the middle of January, has ever since
been the subject of the malevolence of Segovia
and his negro subjects.
One thousand armed men, instgated by Sego-
via and Baez, attacked the house of Mr. Elliot,
which was only occupied by his wife and fe-
male servant. These towards shouted for her
to appear on the balcony, so that they might
shoot at her or throw stones. In the Gale Com
ercio they trampled the American flag to pieces.
Several balls were fired into the houses of Amcr-
can citizens An attempt was made to tear
down the coat of arms and cut down the Amer
ican flagstaff, but it was defeated by the English
war steamer Tartar, Commander Dunlop. There
is also a French steamer of war here the Ache
ron, which has been presented to this govern
ment.

PANAMA TO BE OCCUPIED BY THE UNITED STATES.
From New Granada we learn that the Gov
ernment of Bogota uphold and justify her Off
cials in the outrages they perpetrated, and the
massacres they committed on our citizens at
Panama; and with laughable arrogance, which
only weak powers can assume, inform our Min
listers that they will not hold any farther eom-
munication with them on the subject; in conse-
quence of which Messrs. Morse and Borland have
demanded their passports, and were expected in
Aspinwall by the 10th of this month. This will
render an armed occupation of the Isthmus un-
avoidable, and you may expect to hear the news
of such occupation of Panama by Commodore
Meryin on the return trip of the John L. Stephens.
It is hard to say what will be the final result OF
this stubborn factiousness of Los GranadiG'ls; but
one thing is certain, if once occupied we shall
never relinquish it,

Female sharp PRACTICE.

Some years ago a young gentleman living in
Crawford county "went w.st," settled in west
ern city, and became rich. He married lady
residing in the city where he located. After
he had been married about six months he pre-
pared to visit Crawford county in company with
bis bride. But a few days before he was to start,
he was accidentally killed by crate of crocke-
ry falling on him from the second story of his
warehouse. The event was duly communicated
to his family in Ohio. That was about eighteen
months ago.
About three months since, the father of the
deceased was startled to see a carriage driving
up to his door, A very interesting lady, dressed
in mourning. stepped out and intr roduced herself
as the widow of the dead SON. Great was the
Joy of the household at the visit of their beloved
son and brothers relict. She said she was going
to Rhode Island, and could not resist the OPP
portunity of seeing the parents and relatives of
her "beloved Harry This was accompanied
by a food of tears and furnace sighs."
Three weeks had passed by and she had work
ed her way deep into the affections of the family.
She was regarded as a daughter-as o sister.
The hour came for her departure-they had cx-
changed minatnres-the farewells were said
the blubering was at its height, when she called
the old gentleman to one side, and with great
embarrassment told him that she had lost her
pocketbook on the cars, containing all but a
trfe of her funds. She felt diffidence in max
ing the request but if she could not apply to
her "beloved Henry's" father, to whom could
she go? srs.s aaf e.
The old mans heart was melted, in a moment
his wallet was produced. and ten KS of the
Senaca County Bank were rendered and accept
ed She departed-alas, that dear friends must
partl Time few. and month passed, but
nothing was heard of "beloved Harrys relict.
The old gentleman became alarmed, and ldress-
ed q letter to the father of his sons wife, detail
ing the circumstances of her visit. An answer
came. It stated that the widow of his late son
was at home-had not been away y-and that from
the description given, the woman who persona
ted her, was servant girl who had lived with
them, and had CLEANED enough of the history of
Harry's family in Ohio to enable her to play
his wife.-TT1fn (O) advertiser.

LATIN PRoPHEcY OF WAsHNGToN.-The wri-

Roman orator, who was basely murdered by the

following prophetic language occurs, which
seems particularly applicable to Washington

and rich country will be discovered and it will

FROM PITT RIvER.-On Wednesday, the first
inst, Lockharts company found in Pitt river
valley the body of a German who was killed
by the Indians in the massacre at that place.
His throat had been cut, and with log chain
fastened to his legs, he had been thrown into
the river. In rancheria, human shull was
found, supposed to be that of an old man who
had gone to the valley in company with Mr..
Rogers. The company now in Pitt river valley
numbers twenty men. One night two Indian
spies were seen near the camp, and were shot.
One was killed, but the other escaped. When
Lockhart and his party first arrived in the val
ley, they found about 400 Indians; since then
only small parties of them have occasionally
been seen. 1t is the opinion Of Mr.. Lockhart
that these Indians cannot escape over the NOUN
tains, on account of the great amount of snow.

PERFORATED POSTAGE STAMPs.-We are inform
ed that the Hon. James Campbell, Postmaster
General, has recently made an improvement in
postage stamps, which adds greatly to the public
convenience. He has had them prepared on
sheets with perforations around the border of
each stamp so that they can be separated from
the other, without using knife or pair of scis-
sors. Besides the saving Of time in this improve
ment, there is greater security that the stamp
will adhere to the letter, for the points or rough
edges left by the perforations win stick better to
the letter, there being none of the risk of the
edge turning up as when it is continuous. This
plan of perforating letter stamps is practsed in
Europe and Mr.. Campbell had the contractor
procure machine from that country. Stamps
have already been sent to New York, Baltimore,
Boston, Albany, Cincinnati, New Orleans st.
Louis and Chicago. The amount of letter writ
ing in the United States may be inferred from
the number of postage stamps used. The number
sold by the government last year reached nearly
one hundred and fifty millions Of stamps.
