An experiment on a small scale was made a

B. KING, of Rowland. From 1215 lbs. of the
cane, IA lbs of juice was expressed. The press
used was a small one of cast iron, costing s. OF
$40, manufactured by CHAs. MESSENGER. The
juice is much sweeter than the sap of the maple,
although the cane was quite green.
Several samples of Molasses and Syrup made
froz. the Sorghum were exhibited at the Fair
We have in our office a bottle of Syrup made by

resembles q mixture of honey and molasses. 1t
is pure, and in every respect equal to the best

BEHIND or Before.

CLAL 9SAO4Ss
For many years, as in most churches out OF
cities, the congregation in the Presbyterian
Church in this place, has been in the habit of
turning around and facing the choir during
singing. A year or more since, this plan was
reversed for a few days. but very soon the old
order was reinstated. Last Sunday another turn
was taken, and the congregation received a hint
to keep their backs to the singers.
Which is right, and which is wrong, we can
not say. We incline to both sides. 1t is Ger
tainly just as natural to wish to look at the face
of a singer, when we listen to the singing, as it
is TO look at that of a speaker when he is preach
ing, and there is a material difference in the ap-
probation Of the music, or oratory, made by the
position of the hearers. But whether with the
present narrowness of the pews, and the width
of the crinoline, so great a classification of the
latter as Is caused by the of changing
fronts, is desirable or not, is a serious question,
and whether 1t adds TO the solemnity of the SER
vice to have the whole congregation pirouetting
around like an Italian Opera dancer. three times
each service, is another. ASS general axiom, it
Is UtONcr III usoot SdSoe' loiliSai, pSAoouaA anu
religious, to face the music. and probably in this,
the majority of the congregation would think it
mere agreeable for them to do so; but whether it
isvery pleasant for the singers to have the whole
audience staring at them, and measuring the
exact width to which they open their mouths, on
the high notes, is another question still.
The members of the choir ought to have the
privilegeof deciding the matter. They deserve
this at the hands of the congregation in return
for the labor, (and it is no light one,) of keep
ing up their organization, practicing one even
ing each week, and being regularly in atten-
dance in their places every Sabbath, no postpone
ment being allowed on account of the weather
Individually, we like to see the music as well as
hear it, but as the present choir sing better than
have any other for many n long year in that
church. we are content they shall decide whether
We listen to them with our eyes, the back of our
head, the left ear, or the right.
