WE publish this week a statement OF
the quantity of sugar made in this par
ish during the two preceding years.
Our motives for sodoing will become
apparent, by a perusal Of the few re-
marks we are now pcnning.
We viii proceed, then, to establish
certain facts, and draw certain c%onclu-
SONS thcrefrom, though not new to
any one, still may be interesting to
many.
The crop of the year 1858 amounts
to Is, b96 hhds., averaging at least 100
lbs. each, making a total weight Of 90
015,6 600 lbs. The average price of the
total crop cannot be put down at less
than SC. per b.; making the sum of
81, O00, $50 as the value Of the sugar
crop Of the year 1858. This amount
may be considered as the net value Of
the revenue of the year; as the value of
the molasses is considered sufficient to
dcfray the current expenses of the plan.
tation.
By reference to the tax roll Of this
parisls for the year 1858, we find that
the assessed value of the capital invest
ed in the cultivation of sugar is within
a fraction Of 81, oO0, 900, and it will an
swer our purpose to take this figure as
tue correct amount Of that property sub
iect to taxation, This, however, is not
the real cash value of that capital: as,
for instance, the evaluation of slave
property is fixed by law, and that at
much below its real value; besides, the
other property is generally estimated
very low. By IN inspection Of the ass
essed value Of the property cf Nose
planters of which we have some know
ledge, We think that Is per cent may be
safely added to the present assessed va.
lue, to form. a correct and true estimate
of the capital employed in the cultiya.
ton of sugar; making, therefore, the
sum Of So, 600, 900.
Taking, then, the sun Of 81, 200, 00e
as the value of the crop Of 1858, and the
result would be 90 per cent as the ne1
revenue Of the capital invested.
Perhaps many may say that such q
result is deducible only from such a fa
yorablc year as was the last. True;
but let us attempt to ascertain what
would be the result during u succession

Statistics Of the Sugar Crop Made in the II
Parish Of Pointe Coupee during the
years 1857 and 1858.

Mean crop. .......... ll,2oo
At 100 lbs. per llhds. and at DC. per
pound, would make S62o,675-say $780,
600. The average capital during that
period may be safely put down at ST.
0n0. 600, and this would still make the
net revcnuc at Is per cent annually in a
series of 6 years.
We would now, in conclusion, ask,
is not the Investment Of capital in the
purchase Of lands for the culture Of SUI
gar cane, a safe and profitable one? Is
there any industry more surely remu-
lucrative? We say no, ever III the low
or parishes where land sells at one nun
drcd dollars the superficial acre. But
here in Pointc Coupee, where land is
cheap-rarely going over $50 the acre
and where the yield of the anc is as
good as i'll the region of New Orleans,
we maintain that capital may be more
proftably employed than in any other
portion Ut the South.
