CHINESE. SUGAR CANE


In proc. that cane which produces ripe seed
loses its sweetness and juice and becomes dry and
pithy, would say that made il my particular
business, while my cane was growing, to deter
mine its peculiarities, far as / could, that /
might know how to cultivate it protitably. / cut
stalks every few days after it tasseled out until
dead ripe, and found that before the seed was
full in the milk, the juice had greensh, un-
pleasant taste, although very sweet when it was
full size, il had no unpleasant taste the inner
portion of the stalk was about as sweet as sugar
CANDY, and the stalk perfect. When the seed
began to turn dark on tip of the heads, found
a small hollow forming in the centre of the stalk
next to the head, and as the seed ripened, this
extended down the stalk from one half to two
thirds it's entire length, and ihe stalk had pithy
appearance. The juice about this hollow became
fat and insp,d, with but little sweetness, and
taste very mnch like the last run of maple sap,
after the buds have started. The lower joints Of
this same stalk would usually remain sound and
very swee4 while 1he upper portion as the seed
ripened 6Gc,m nearly dry, and very much re-
sembe the inside of ripe corn stalk. From
these observations came to the conclusion that
when the SEED is fully formed and about to turn
dark then the stalk is at the highest state of per-
fection for use, and Will make either sugar or
syrup you desire that after the seed ripens it
becomes unit for syrup or sugar
THE FEMALE LIEUTENANT.-The public will
remember the numerous paragraphs published
teoncerning one ssLieut. Harry Buford,' nee Mrs.
Williams, sith a history romantic in war as that
of Joan Of Arc. Last summer the Lieut.. got in
to Castle Thunder, her sex not corresponding
with the cashing uniterm she wore. She was re-
leased, and went from Richmond to Chattanooga,
where she Joined Gen'i Braggs army, got upon
the staff OF General A. z. Stewart, and for time
was employed in the secret service effecting inn
portant arrests of spies, and doing some very
daring things.
The other day she visited Richmond again,
not the gay Lieutenant, but in the garments
more becoming her sex, and bearing the name of
Mrs. Jeruth DeCaulp, she having, in the interval
married an officer of the Confederate States Pro-
visional army of that name, first obtaining a di-
vorce from her first husband, Williams, who is
in the army of Gen. Grant.
/ In consideration of her services, the Confeder.
ate Government has commissioned Mrs. DeCaulp
with the rank of Captain, and, since her arrival
in Richmond, she has drawn ST 800 back pay
She is now at the Ballard House, en- route for
Georgia, and the home of her new husband.
