The miserable tools of bred Scottish

flesh in Indiana. Free negroes, through
the ample facilities afforded by the fugi-

into slavery, the only consideration being
the fees provided for in that law. A boy

Of a million Of dollars are carried ont of the
State annually for the purpose of educating
her sons abroad. .a The interest on thissa-
mount is sone-thirdy more than the annuity
we ask for from the State If we have to
build up a great university On our own soil
| we should certainly retain our own children
lat. home, but we should do more. Many Of
the children of other States, especially South
ern States, would; be.invited among US, and
thus help to swell largely the credit side of
the acceunts with the State .I Sc that in this
view alone our plan is highly economical
But there are other views ola similar kind. .
One hundred thousand dollars is nov, ap-
propriated By the State and expended annu-
ally for educational purposes .oyer and above
the annual. tax levied. In. the counties and
the city Of Baltimore, for similar purposes.
What that amount is I'M their sc veraF lecali-
ties the representatives from the various
quarters of the State, have the best means
of knowing We only know that in the city
|of Annapolis, the School. is two per cent.
higher than the State tax. i The plan we
commend would render,efic ficient the;applica-
tion Of this vast amount of money, and thus
seryeathe purpose of the highest practical
economy Improvement in the general edu-
cation Of The State, would diminish public
expenses in various ways. - =
The amount which our plan asks annual
ly of the State would hardly equal the In
terest of that which she would have to pay
in outlay, in buildings, apparatus and ether
appurtenanees, as a. preparation for the
founding Of such an institution elsewhere. ~

About three mont possibility
Iof obtaining erystal1ized sugar romp the
Chinese cane was publicly denied byta nuns
Der of persons who hadsEmade experiments
with the juice, some .ofsmhom were known
as scientific men and practical su gar reefners.
Such opinions naturally led astray those who
had no means Of making experiments for
themselves. r IS a curious fact, however,
that-at the very time when. such opinions
were being, propagated, the most effective
shot and she'll were being prepared for their
demolition. sa We had thought, from. what
We have already published on this subject;
that but little if anything useful could be
added terour stock Of knowledge until ex-
periments were made With the future crop
of this year, but. In this opinion: we have
found ourselves agreeably mistaken. We
had received some excellent samples of this
sugar from various parties, but not certain
data as to, the quantity and quality, of the
sugar to be obtained from the cane per acre;
but we have now received very satisfactory
information, on. this point. Mr.. Joseph
Lowering, of, Qakhill, Philadelphia county,
Paacaeverys scientific and practical sugar re-
finer, has sent us box containing as beau
tiful samples of loaf, white, granulated and
brown Sorgho sugars as any cane sugars
whatever: He had planted half an acre of
the seed on his farm, and with. the stalks of
this he made correct and scientific, experi-
mMents. mel Before proceeding, to refine the
juice, he wisely. examined it with the POLAR
iscope to see if it gave the usual indications
of possessing crystallizable sugar This cx-
animation afforded the proof that It contain
ed 5:57 per cent Of sugar; and, from this
daia heawent on, and made those expert
ments with the juice which resulted in the
samples Of, beautiful sugarIihe has sent us.
Mr.. j.. has also given al detailed account of
his efforts in a we'll written pamphlet, and
from these he has arrived at The conclusions
that an acre Of this cane,f in good season.
will yield about I, 1853 pounds Of sugar and
"A gallons Of ,molasses77-a result correspon-
ding to, that obtained on, the Louisiana iplan-l
tations with the real sugar icane.9jal The ex-
periments of Mr.. Lowering are of a reliable

an amount of benefit, which it would not be
possible to compute in numbers It would
Of course be very unfair to estimate the ad-
vantages Of the plan herein submitted, by
the number of teachers annually prepared
in the Normal School alone. We must take
into the account the impulse given general
ly towards the vocation Of teaching. by ele-
waiting it to the position among the scientific
professions it SO well deserves, and the great
aid which these graduates of the Normal
School may give towards the multiplication

That which gives movement and regulation
to the whole, is always the most important
part of the machinery. ! And it is no objec-

direct, but by no means small benefits, which
would accrue to the State, from an outlay 'ol
such an amount in behalf of her own school,
at the head of whose concerns her own CHIEF
