This ia derived chiefly from the food we eat
hut If the food is not properly dgested, or If from

To take medicine to cure diseases eoeasioned by

:" 1t is claimed by all writer's on sorghum,
that we have examined, that there is but one
distinct variety of Chinese Cane. This is I'M
doubtedly true, but nevertheless it has been
greatly changed by cultivation in different
localities, so that it will ripen earlier; and,
in some cases, we have seen it so changed
that the seed head, instead of standing erect,
would be somewhat dropping at the top. In
the two cuts of the Chinese that give,
there is quite a difference. No l is fair
representation of the cane as first introduced
from France, and as it is now seen in some To-
calities No. 2 is more bdshy, and repre-
sents the Chinese cane as frequently seen at

Another Letter from the President.

Mr.. LINCOLN has demonstrated the III sound
ness of what had become an axiom in our
politics, to-wit, that-a public man must not
allow his letters to be published
He has shown there is no damage in such
publications where the writer has clear,
honest, strai ghtforward purpose to which he
consistently adheres They are only danger
Gus to politicians who are seeking the sup
port of antagonistic interests, and playing a
double game
Daring his term of ofice, Mr.. LINCOLN has
written a number of letters that have been
published, and in every instance, they have
strengthened the confidence of the people
both in his integrity as a patriot, and his wise
forethought and clear Insight as statesman.
Another of his letters has just appeared,
andi is a worthy companion piece with those
that have preceded it. 1t is published in the
Frankfort (Ky.) Commonwealth, and relates to
his action ON the subject of slavery, his coun-
demanding the orders of Generals FREMONT
and HUNTER emaneipaJing slaves, and his sub
sequent proclamation of emancipation, and
order for the organization of colored regl-
meuts The circumstances eliciting the let
ter were as follows: Gov. BRAMLETTE and a
number of Kentucky gentlemen visited the
President recently, in regard to military mat
tiers in Kentucky At the close of the inter-
view the President said that he was appre
hensive that Kentuekians ielt unfriendly to
him in consequence of not understanding the
difficulties with which he was surrounded,
ard that he would explain his course if they
felt inclined to hear him. They signifed their
desire that he should do so, and the President
proceeded to state the reasons for his policy
on the subject of slavery. Afterwards, at
the request of Col. HODGES, of the Comnao1t-
,cealth, who was one of the party, Mr.. LINCOLN
wrote out the substance of what ne said in
the form of a letter as follows:

Observation-Disclosures, sc.

The culturesof the Northern Sugar Cane
plant has become of so much. general interest
and Importance as to require all the informa-
ton possible to bring it proftably, yet eau
tiously before the public During the first
fifteen DAYS Of May the whole crop should be
planted. twill stand more severe change
able weather. and frost than corn, and should
be planted first. Frost will not injure itmof
than to kill the young leaves, and as the root
will still be healthy and vigorous, but very
little time viii be lost to the seasons growth.
The necessity of early planting must be borne
in mind The weather is now sufficiently
warm to warrant its immediate attention and
save the crop. At the late convention held
in Madison, much valuable information was
impaired upon this subject. Those who may
receive the published proceedings from the
Legislative members or secretaries, viii do
well to examine that portion of it pertaining
to time of planting and soil. 1t is not the
acre which grows the largest cane thai fills
the largest barrel with syrup. sandy clay
loan. if to be had, or ifnot that which comes
the nearest to it, should be selected. See to
the drainage: heavy land is undesirable. On
the prairies where the dark soil predominates,
select the sandy portions. That to be most
avoided in all locations is the bottom land,

or that composed largely of vegetable mate
rial Good wheat soil will ordinarily produce
good cane We do not estimate the value of
wheat soil by the amount of straw grown, but
quality and quantity Of seed. SO of the cane,
not so much quantity in bulk or size of cane,
as quality in seccharine matter The extreme
barrens need not be chosen best, but as
expressed in the convention, high, dry and
rich land" are best suited In practice it is
usually found that upland will produce a cane
while the bottom lands make a very large
growth, which yields dark colored, poorer
favored syrup, frequently requiring ten or
twelve gallons of juice to one of syrup, the
first requiring less than or about half this
amount, and producing an article worth much
more in market. As to the variety best adap-
ted to Wisconsin, there is more diversity of
opinion, but with few exceptions those most
acquainted with cane culture and its growth,
if confined to one variety, plant the Chinese.
1t produces a lighter colored syrup, is less
it in gathering seed, now ripens in about the
same time that any of the Imphee varieties do.
The following drawings and descriptions we
clip from E. W. SINNERS " Hand Book of
Sorghum and Sugar Cane Mills, which he has
published for gratuitous distribution. They
fully illustrate the different varieties, time
of ripening habits and characteristics On

Nee-a- Notwithstanding called White I'm
phee. The seed-tuft is short and bunchy-
seed large, round and white. The stalk is
usually short and slender, but soft, Juicy and
sweet. 1t is claimed by Mr.. Hedges the ait
should not be allowed to stand on the hill af-
ter the seed is well in the dough. 1t may,
however, improve after being cut and ricked,
or sheltered.
Oona-See-a-1td-The stalk of this is slender
and taller than the last. Both early, and
should be planted thicker than the Chinese.
The seed-tuft of the 0cm-see-a-na is erect
and slender, with short foot-stalks, purple
seed-hulls, showing a brown seed. The stalk
Is not quite as long jointed as the Chinese,
but longer than some of the varieties of I'm
phee, and differing but little from the Nee-a-
za-na- These two varieties we consider the
earliest and best of the Imphees for cultiva-
ton north of Chicago or Dubuque.
The Chinese variety of sorghum is recon-
mended for general cultivation, by nearly
every convention that has been held in the
Northwest. 1t is earlier than the most vari-
I cites of the African, and makes a lighter syr-
up, though for sugar it may not contain quite
as much graduating properties"
But little OR no seed ripened in the North,
the past season. Purchase from those only
who have reputation at stake, and whose
interest will disseminate none but the best of
seed. This is the exception, and not the
rule, as in ordinary seasons we would select
from the same localities in which we wished
TO pla1t.
PREPARATION OF THE SOIL is of the utmost i'm
portance and cannot be to carefully attended
to. Deep tillage is essential that the cane
may find plenty of food. Cane roots pene-
trate 10 a great depth. Their inclination is
to run down, and not to ramble sideways or
near the surface they have been traced down
several feet, and hence the necessity of pull
verizing to as great depth as possible Use
three horses and better four. If the first
blowing was given the previous fall the
better for the cane. After the plswing pull
verize thoroughly with harrow and cultivator

two light burrows together, 1t Will become
warm in the sun light and air, heavy rains
more readily run off, and assist in thoroughly
pulverizing the surface. Immediately pre-
ceding the planting, draw marker across
the ridge to plant by, as well as to give moist
fresh soil for receiving the seed. If the soil
is very weedy, these marks viii also assist as
a guide in cultivating the cane, even before
it is suffi GENTLY up to otherwise follow the
rows. Another method sometimes adopted
is to make slight furrow, with a shovel pillow
east and west, and plant upon the the north
side of this furrow. In this position it will
receive the warm direct rays of the sun and
termination is fastened
THE ODE OF PLANTING varies with fancy
and views of operators, some will insist upon
the drill form, others in squares like corn, and
at various distances. If land is in excellent
till, undoubtedly larger yield can be obtain
ed by the drill method than any other, but it
will require more hard labor to tend it. And
in these war times when the fields are large
and laborers few, it is better to adopt the row
system, 81 to feet is proper distance
Soaking the seed # carefully treated is desira-
BILE. Pour on warm water and keep in warm
position either by mixing in sand or sawdust
until examinations are visible, then plant shall

this amount is better. Cover lightly, that
the seed can have light and air to assist in
termination, pressing the soil with the foot
or otherwise. Don't forget to put in plenty
OF seed The cost per acre is only trife and
if half are subsequently, rincked out, the loss
is scarcely perceptible better to have an
abundance to thin out, than few imperfect
stands to replant. Ten or twelve and even
fifteen canes to the hill are none to many for
profit. The number of canes In the bill NAV
vary with the richness of the soil. If uery
rich, from - to 20 stalks will grow without
detriment. On good medium soil less num-

stalks enough to prevent suckerng. This OBJ
leet can usually be gained by judicious plant
