Editors Chicago Tribune:
In your paper / sec the subject Of Cotton
and Sorghum discussed et Eame length, and
having had little experience in each Of them,
send yun few linea Of my experience.
came to this State in 1915, and settled in Snn
Canon county, near where Springfield now
stands, and followed farming for a living, and
raiscd cotton one mile from Springfield, which
my wife, who Was raised in North Carolins,
said vas as good IS. =ny she ever saw in that
State. 1got it ginned at Jacob E.iss' Is gin, one
hall mile from ~Lere raised it, but rs there
was not any machinery in this country at that
time to manufacture it, wa gave up the husi-
ness, as there was no. o.market for the raw matc-
rial, and it would not pay to manufacture il by
hand.
Last year there was considerable Sorghum
raised in this county, and al there was no mill
to grind 1t, t~o Of my sons-in law and myself
agreed to get one and set up on q small scale.
Wa got mill made In hi. Vernon, Ohio, md
pans for evaporatins ut the samo Place, Our
mill cost us $50, besides freight, and our pan
sis. We made about IS barrels of the btst
syrup that over saw. l Ind one-third OF an
acre and got 100 gallons Of syrup, aud 1t Is 80
thick that It will hardly run out Of tho barrel.
1t VAS readily sold ut 50 cents per gallon
at tie place where 1t was made, The cane will
not bear heavy frost, neither will 1t bear to
be cut or bladed long before it is ground, as it
will not make either as much or as good syrup
1s when fteah cut.
I worked for one Of my n:ighbors. He
rented and gave onc-third Of the cane to his
landlord. He tousht onc-third carly in the
season, and 1t made g gallons Of first rate
third, and it made 10 gallons oftolcrable good.
then after It had got severely frosted the other
third waa brought, which made Is gallons OF
rather poor syrup. PETER LANTERAAN.

An evidence Of the improved condition
Of our agricultural interests is found in The
increased demand for lands in Illinois. Not
only do tho operations Of the Illinois Cen
tral Railroad eAow 4 most decided move
meut in t}l;s respect but along the other
lines, and from individual landholders, We
hear the same cheerful tidings. Settlers
arc coming in, taking up both wild lands
and improved FARMS and preparing for cx-
tensire Improvements upon the opening OF
Spring.
The emigration from Ohio and Indiana,
which poured through Illinois in 1855 aud
1857, bound for Kansas and Nebraska, is
now, 10 some extent, rcturning-while thu:
which is still coming from those States, al
most universally remains with US. This
consists generally Of men Of moderate
means, with gooa teams and some money,
travelling with their wagons-ahle to im-
prove lands bat without sufficient capital
to purchase at the outset Having been
rentecs before, they arc pursuing the same
course here, and IN s;mc localities have
taken up improved farms to be had, at
highly satisfactory rates TO the proprieto7a.
This Is most gratifying indication tla.
Illinois is assuming its true position in tie
Unioa-that Of first in agricultural rcsoIr'
ces and cxtrrt Of productions.
While We do 70: doubt the future Of ar
Of the States comprising our great NORTH
west, cestain it IL that Illinois has d Ion:
start over them I'LL, and it will be our Owl
fault it we do not keep far ahead in the rac'
for wealth and empire.

We take it for granted, from what VIC
know Of Mr. L:ncoln's sentiments, in regard
to the crisis through which the country ia
now passing, that while he will look with
unconcealed distavor upon all the plans OF
adjustment now broached, which contcm-
plate an amendment Of the Federal Con-

not oppose a National Constitutional

such confidence in the masses, that 10 their
decision he would GLADLY refer all the
queations 1T Issue, and agree for himself,
and, as far as, he could do 50 for his psnJ,
to abide their action. This We assume will
be the solution Of the whole matter, unless

Periis and Popularity OF Lincoln.

Perlls and Popularity OF Lincoln.
A correspondent Of the Cincinnati Conln4cr-
cid! in describing the scene which took place
at Columbus after 3Ir. Lincoln had made his
efspccch to the people, SAYS:
4 great shout went up when the speech wus
spoken, and great volume Of brawny human
ity rushed up the Capitol steps, aud swaru1iEg
about ,i,e distinguished guest, seemed about
tooVerWhe!m him, hut his escort, making
d-xtrous detour around one Of the hnae col
u!nas Of the portlco, got him into the State
House, and the ceruerus Of the Capitol ehut of
communication, by closing the portals. Mr..
Lincoln WuA then backed up against the gran
ito Of the northern arch Of tic rotuuda, when
the southern doors were operoe, a1d the eager
crowd charge through the corridor and up the
stairs with vigor little short Of ferocity. A
score or SO OF ladies in the rotunda, fearing the
coming storm, fled Ia dismay up the staircA Ases
into this galleries, and looked down in amazs-
Saens upon the ludicrious scene 60 suddenly
created
In the space OF q second the rotuuda Was
packed Tlth dense ma.B Of Humanity, wedg-
Cd almost immor2hfy into tbs spacious area.
Here aud there, IN arm yibra:ed furiousiy, now
and then, q broad cle-t would leaye itself
above the crowd, but little else but heads could
be aeeu uu,l tue DRIFT broke on the north side
then there vas surge and 1io@l with uow
end then mighty voluma Of voices, which,
swelling up Into tho vast ro:unda, almost
shook It's granite sides. Then again, the out
Fida crowd would rush towards tlo center, and
the center would.would resist still; back again,
the ccntripetal force thr+T Itself with re.
ls1ncac, which ruaed up the center, like mole
hill.
Now tho police interferc1 with official fu.s.-
ncze, and intellectually, until the whole mass
hc1ved With irrrprcssibte o1citement. Hats
wera crushed ~ il they had been so many egg
ehells, and swallo y. tailed coars we're robbed oi
coalcliness, and huge oaths Illustrated sad
deficiency in Sunday school training. But it
was all good na:ured Old Abe, mrasnsime, Vi
brated like an old fashioned ship telegraph,
reaching out his long arms Two yards ahead,
and graspiny bEAwnv lists in swift succession,
to tue undi,ninished tLrons, until he seemed

pronounced him first rate specimen Of tho

about o'clock, Mr. Lincoln, almost exhaust

SUGAR DUTIES.

We do not see that any progress il being
made BY the gentlemen in Congress who
propose to abolish the duties On Sugar; nor
do ne sec that Louisiana, fed and pampered
By those duties which come mainly from
the people Of the North, is any less insolent
aud outrageous than South Carolina. The
line Of Republican obligation in the prenli-

on Sugar are m absurdity when Louisiana
