BRANDY FROM THE CMNrsR SUGAR CANE
A correspondent of the NJ Y. Post sends to
that paper . sample Of very good brandy
made from the syrup Of the above named
plant, and says that it costs about 80 cts. per
gallon to produce, and is worth in the mar
ket from 81 to*2 per gallon, according to
quality. He suggests that the growth OF
this crop will enable the farmers TO manu-
facture the spirit in the winter season,
when they have no other occupation. They
can make q gallon ofproof spirits for each
gallon Of fermented syrup, AID it will find a
ready sale at the recti6ers, who will turn it
into alcohol for camphene and other uses.
The writer adds
The quantity Of alcohol now used for pur.
poses Of illumination alone to say nothing
Of varnisheA cloroforlp. aud medicinal ex-
tracts, is enormous, and was beginning to
have serious effect on the price of bread,
owing to the Wholesale destruction Of GER
eals required to produce it. Now, however
We have found substitute, which, besides
supplying syrup and alcohol, will also yield
from the same crop, large amount Of for.
age and grain for the fattening of stock

Caught A TARrAR-The Presidents reply
to the forty gentlemen of Connecticut (says
the Ns,c York Journal Of Comnserce) Is .
perfect bombshell in the camp Of the enemy.
It is not likely that any provocation will 6e
given for second epistle of this sort. We
notice some disposition to chide the Presi-
dent for condescending to explain the mo-
tives and course Of his public acts to private
citizens but this may be excused in coneid-
Grafton Of the salutary effect produced
substantial good accomplished. in creating
sound public sentiment, and disseminating
throughout the Republican press Of the
country certain statements and facts which
are studiously excluded under ordinary cir
cumstsnces II 10 also in season for presen-
tation to the citizens Of Kansas, while yet on
the threshold Of State organization, and
may exert an important influence there
No doubt it was the intention Of the gentle
men whose names are appended to the New
Haven letter 70 influence the course Of the
President in his administration of public Of
fairA The interference was, therefore, Of .
mischievous tendency; but, on the whole,
both they and the President are to be
thanked for the action taken by them re-
speetively. which hes resulted In the pro
duetion Of the noble document which ie now
before the country.

Ought not the Bank Bill to be Adop
ted.

BY the Quarterly Bank Statement Of the
Auditor Of State. we learn that the total
banking capital Of Ohio is but 50, 292 800.
Massachusetts has banking capital OF
over $50, 100000. Rhode Island-no
larger than one Of Ohio's oounties-has
over S20,000,000. Little Connecticut
has Sl8, 100000 New Jersey has over
$500. 900; and yet Ohio larger than all
these combined, has less than SO, 900, 600.
Providence, with population of Al, 500,
has over $4,000, 900 banking capital,
while Cleveland. with so, 900 people, has
S570, 600 in banking capital Cincinnati,
with population Of 10000, has still
less IN wit: S39l,875. In view of these
facts we hope the people Of Ohio will see
the importanoe--almost the necessity--of
adopting the bank bill which will be sub i.
mitted to them IN October. IL is q good
system almost the same as that which
has been in operation in the State during
the last twelve years--and under which
nobody has ever lost dollar.
