sUaAR.-The fall of Vicksburg has
caused great fise in the price of sugar
This, says the Richmond Wing, Is one Of
the. best illustrations Of the unreasoning
mania for speculation. Nothing can be
palmer than the fall-of that city neither in.
creases nor diniuishes the supply of that
article. There was no sugar secured at
Vicksburg, beyond what might be needed
by the garrison and population, and the
whole sugar producing region of Louisi-
ana having been invaded and ravaged by
the Yankees, the negroes run OF and the
horses. and mules stolen, the quantity OF
sugar which the planters may be able to
manufacture this fall will hardly exceed
what is required for their own consumption.
Our stock of sugar must come from abroad,
and not from the South, and the holding
of Vicksburg could not have added pound
to cur present or future supply of that ar,
tiole. :.

case of the Alexandra, puts an end to Mr..
Adams operations (Lincoln's Minister)
through his spies, .peering and prying into
every British ship yard to ascertain if there
were apy ships building for the Confeaer-
ate States. The decision gives perfect lib
erty to every ship builder to build as many
ships as he pleases for the South. 1t will

THE ELECTION.

z7a The election for Field Officers of the
c State Militia comes off at SO short notice,
that no time has been allowed for confer
ence, to secure concert of action, the sever
al districts from which the companies are
composed being so far apart. The candi-
dates, be they who they may, will hardly
be known, and the consequence ia scrub
race extraordinary" This will also tend
to lessenany interest that might be felt, and
the vote will be by no means general. 1t
is urged by many that the old rule of elec-
ting by the Regiment 10 mass would be the
best, but the pressure, perhaps, does not
allow, and thus, We conclude, but little time
p will elapse before the troops are ordered
into service, they had better then prepare
for ''the shortest notice"

CHINESE SUGAR CANE.

AS thereis considerable quantity of this
article planted the present season, we WARN
our readers to be careful how they leave it
exposed to stock. A valuable young horse
died near the depot on Saturday last, it is
supposed from having partaken of it in the
green state. The stalk is said to contain
flint, and operates on the iutestines like
ground glass. Whether, OF not, our farm.
ers, and others, should investigate its good
and bad qualities, for stock is too valuable
to be exposed to danger now.
