SUGAR CULTURE.

70 tie Editor Of The N. Y. Tribune.
SIR: wish to call the attention Of your readers to
The culture of the Sugar Maple q future relisnce
for Sugar in the Northern States.
The enormous prices which Sugar has borne make
The supply to the people OF the North question of
great interest Sugar will never be cheaper; it will
In fifty years be much dearer. l have, during ne
months of May and june examined large part OF the
Reserve and find that the maple tree Is fast dsap-
peang from the North This tree is next to the apple
tree in value to the North of food, and sag
xest that the setting out orchards be constantly
urged till every farm in the North shall have fins
maple orchard as an ornament aud source OF sugar
supplies to the family.
they should not be set too thick-about one hun
bred to an acre and half or possibly, one hundred
20 the acre. In twenty-five years a tree from ten to
fourteen inches through is grown; in fifty years the
tree becomes glory in appearance; the top large
and round and the leaves rich and green, while the
body is from twelve to eighteen inches in diameter
The soft maple Is equally valuable for shade or
aug IT. and the tns of tue leaves IN the Fan are ricn
and beautiful d the robes Of an Eastern queen. Ii
the North in one hundred years can secure her own
tugsr it will be great desideratum-a triumph over
cane. The miserable, dirty locust, that dlsgraces SO
many of our Northern villages should be e1termnated
and all our towns and villages public squares, college
greens, schoohouse yards, the lines OF our farms,
and the places Of worship, should be shaded with the
esutful maple.
The women and children will make the sugar as
recreation and children are never better than when
thew have plenty OF maple molasses. 1t makes them

MURDER At MrDIsA.-We are indebted to Con
ducor Wells for few particulars OF most appalling
tragedy which enacted ia the streets al the sa-
lage of Medina last night. midde-aGed gentleman
OF extensive business and considerable property,
whose name was understood to be Butter, and who s
said to have been in the habit Of carrying large
amounts Of money about his person, was found lying
in a street of that village this morning. dcad--hls
head being pounded as il were, TO jelly his pockets
turned inside out papess scattered about the ground
bis pookctbook lying the body, but no money IN
it, and gold watch which he was known to carry
was missing From the appearances about the body,
il was believed thst the murder was committed be
fore the first shower of rain last night which is said
to. have fallen about l2 o'clock. No weapon was
found near the body except a very heavy grees
glass Junk bottle, which was about half filled with
Peppermint This was lying under the body. When
the train passed no clue had been obtained to the
perpetrators Of the murder, though it was ssid that
two men had been at late hour last evening, at
two different places not far from where the body was
found who were holding apparently anxious, whis'
pered consultations; but they were not recognized.
