III BoNNAgEL's Bl-suLPnITE OF LIME.-We are
reminded, in another column by an advertisement
from the large establishment so many years in op-
Grafton for the manufacture Of Bl-Sulphite of Lime
that this valuable preparation for the improvement
cfsngar, in which it would appear to be emnently
successful, is still in popular request by the plan
ters of this State. We understand improvements
of the most valuable character have been introdu-
Ced in the manufacture and that from a comparatl-
vely low standard of strength, seven or eight per
cent. it is now uniformly ter ana mnwards.
Skepticism long held out against the use and
utility OF the B-Sulphite nor can it surprise any
one that it was so, seeing how many agents. che
mcal and others, have been introduced in the last
twenty years, to improve the quality of Louisiana
sugars, to enable it to compete successfully
with the foreign article and to counteract some of
the disadvantages it has to contend against, from
pecaiarities ofclimate and hasty preparation for

The Bi-Sulphite, we are assured, has answered
expectations in almost every instance where no
extravagaft unreasonable hopes have been ms
pired or indulged; and, perhaps, the very best
proof of the good results following its use is fur
nished by those intelligent planters who, having
used it where its effects and nature were but i'm
perfectly understood still continue to employ and
recommend it agent Of great value and worthy
OF the most extended application. Ofcourse, much
will depend on the purity of the article and the f.
deity with which its srnanufacture is conducted;
and it is for this reason, observing in advertis
ing columns the notice OF an old and vel! establish

to it with so musheircumstantiality. Other esta-

Sc New- Orleans True Delta
BI-SULPHITE OF LlME-This article has been
working its way into favor among our sugar plan
ters and important chemical agent in the
nuae tnre of sugar it is regarded by many of them
as an indispensable auxiliary. Ia cases where
prejudice OF increduiity, and blind attachment
to oldways and practices have ignored its use af-
ter apartlai triumph, the cause may be lrscr bed
to inseHority of the article ard the imperfect man
IN which 1t has been manufactured. The grand
essential in the article to make reflective for the
use designed, is its strength, adsfciency in which
has been the popular objection. /
