that Professor Bacon, of Boston said in a lecture
II the Medical College, that the saccharum Of the
Sorghum, or Chinese Sugar Cane, is not caue
sugar, but what ia well known rs grape sugar or
gucose-the same kind of sweet substance that is
obtained by boiling starch in diluted suIphuric
acid; and that its s~eatening properties are not
half equal to sugar cane He said that glucose
had often been manufactured from potatoes in Eu-
rope, and used to aduterate cane sugar.
