Cultivation of Sugar Cane.

The cultivation of the Sorghum, or
Chinese Sugar Plant, has thus far proved
so decidedly successful in this country,
not only in the South, where it seems to
have been demonstrated that two crops
or cuttings of sugar bearing stalks can
be obtained in one season from the roots /
of that years planting-but even as far
north as Minnesota, where il is testified
that good syrup was made in 1856, from
stalks hardly 100 days from the seed,
that we are impelled to urge upon farm
ers and gardeners the Importance of ear
ly attention to the producing of seed and
planting for the season just before U.S.
Let us all grow the seed this year, so
that 1t can never more be so scarce that
spectators may run it up to an enormous
price. A great deal remains to be set
tied with regard to this plant, especially
the best mode of converting its saccha-
rine properties into crystalised sugar
and it is highly probable that the better
varieties of it will ultimately be discov-
cred, at least for certain localities, than
that now current in this country. For
the present, however, it is advisable to
continue and extend the cultivation of
that which is accessible, and thus test the
effect of acclimation on the character of
the plant, and the sweetness of its Juices.
!, We suspect that for Louisiana, Florida
and Texas, the Sorghum of Southern
Africa will ultimately be found prefera-
bic to that obtained from France by our
| Patent Office, and from China by France
| If it proves true that this plant, or certain
e varieties of it, can be grown in semi
tropical ATTITUDES from the same root a:

THE OLD MAIDS LAMENT.

Farewell! Farewell departed year,
How swift thy moments Sped
Thou tarried not for old or young,
But from them quickly fed
/ welcomed thee with willing heart,
For then fondly dreamed
A star would rise T. illume my path,
And cheer me with his beams.
When Leap Year came, they told me then
That might hope to win,
For maidens fair and old maids too
Might court without sir.
Upon thy pinions thou didst bring
The soothing balm of hope,
And as thy cheerful moments passed
Bright visions thou didst ope.
sought the rules of etiquette,
And piled proud fashions art,
That admiration l might gain
And WELD fatal dart.
talked of friendship, whispered love,
And sang her sweetest strains,
And fondly fIncied that her spell
Would lure some gallant swain.
prayed that Cupid, from his bower,
Would WELD his cunning art,
And pierce some fond and trusting heart
By loves bewitching dart.
But ali those hopes, those cherished hopes
So fondly welcomed here,
Like glttering bubbles in the air,
They shone to disappear.
For vain were all those anxious signs,
And vain those rays of light
Which shone awhile around my path,
And filed me with delight.
The peaceful reign of Leap Year S DER,
And, too, each cheering dream,
Dark, dark despair has seized my breast,
With no enlivening beam.
Alas! must thus travel on
With no companion dear,
While suns and stars shall rise and set
For four long dreary years?
Ere then, perchance, upon my brow
Times blighting seal will set,
And seal my doom in DID, Haidism-
By all their ills beset.
Unless upon my lonely lot
Kind heaven should fJndly smile,
And send friend to grace my path,
And guide my steps the while.
Then lovely year farewell, farewell
Eternity S thy realm;
The buried shadows of the past
Thy glorles overwhelm.
And in those shadows would dwell,
Unless perchance roam
To haunts where single-blessedness "
Meier reigns nor finds home.
And in thy absence should friend
Vouchsafe to bless my life,
That friend I'll cherish until death
Shall end this mortal strife.
And when again thou guidest the year
I'll welcome thee with song,
Nor murmur at thy tardy pace,
Or sigh when thou art gone.
