Prom uhet % iaudN Cotque cmi
Messrs. Gill Il Sou, sugar mill manu-
facturers in Columbus, informed us that
the State of Ohio would produce fifteen
millions Of gallons Of soreho syrup this
year. This is enormous. The importa-
ton Of plantation molasses and refined
syrups into Cincinnati, 10 supply Ohio
and portions Of Kentucky and Indiana.
aud the Kanawha Valley, has varied in
quantity from three TO five millions Of
gallons per snnum The greater portion
of the plantation m0lasses for the terri
tory above mentioned, came TO, and was
distributed from Cincinnati. Ii will lie
inferred from tAi., that in respect 10 mo-
lasses and sugar, the great West is al
ready independent Of Louisiana plan
t%atiOns. The product of sOrgho in In
diana and Illinois will he three times
greater this year than il ever was before.
and we presume there will be an increase
in Kentucky, The crop ia Missouri will
not be apt 10 equal that Of last year, on
account Of the disturbed condition of the
country, but it will not be extravagant to
estimate the whole crop Of sorghO in the
North at 3O,OOO,OOO gallons. Sorgho
growers are still experimenting 10 make
sugar, and they are greatly encouraged.
We have seen some specimens which
justify hopes that, in another year, large
quantities Of fine sugar will be produced.

DR.. r. C. Craig, who was appointed by a

week. as one of the committee of three who
were to wait upon the proprietors of the

contract, and who was subsequently request
ed to act as a committee of one for the pur-
pose of making any eligible arrangement
with the proprietors or any other persons, for
an adequate supply, upon possible terms, has
partially succeeded. We learn from him that
he entered into contract with Mr.. M. FL
Buchanan, who has just finished preparations
for manufacturing, for a full supply for this
county for the next year, at SIS per bushel,
subject to the ratification of the next County
Court. This arrangement will allow to each
citizen the full amount needed, but none to
dispose Of.
We give it, that the people may reflect upon
it till next week, and instruct the Court ac-
cordingly.

will make a bushel of salt, and we think we
can spare enough to meet pressing wants, but
no more.

F5g2at ON Sandy.

We learn from several persons who parti-
cipated in it, that about so of Gen. Floyd's
men, encountered about three hundred of the
18th Kentucky Federal regiment, under Col.
Dills, at Warren's Ford, some seven miles be-
low Prestonsburg, ON Thursday, the 4t', Inst.
The enemy were driven pel!-mell into the
mountain with considerable loss. Our forces
captured four boats laded with stores, esti-
mated at from: $50 to $500, 900, and altogether,
in the march and fight, about 15O prisoners.
Capt. Frank Endlay, of this place, in tenn
porary command of two companies of mount
ed men. was ordered to charge, but the order
being Immediately countermandea, the front
not hearing it, Cap. Findlay and some 9 or 10
Of his men made the charge, in face Of the
FIRE IF the whole Federal force. The holiness
of the charge alone saved them, as the enemy
took to their heels as soon as they delivered
their FIRE. Capt. Find!ay received two min
ME balls through his thigh, and had his horse
killed under him. Floyd Bailey, son of Col.
Robert Bailey, decd, also had his horse shot
under him, and afterwards fought on foot
Findiay Harris, also of this place, received
two balls through his hat grazing the skin.
Cur entire loss was three killed and two or
three wounded. The loss of the enemy was
heavy for the number engaged, not less than
80, and some say more than 100.
Capt. Findlay is now at his fathers resi-
dence in this place, doing better than could
be expected, after riding $50 miles on horse
back and 30 or 60 in wagon, after being
wounded.
Among the booty in the boats were boxes
of austrian rifles. which were secured. The
men were supplied with as much clothing,
sugar and coffee as they could carry with
them, and all the balance of the stores were
destroyed.
