cd about two weeks ago that the " Hon. George s. Hill

its number of Monday last, after referring to Mr. Hilard
as one who had acted with the old Wing party while it
existed and who had voted for Democratic electors
in his e expressed some doubt whether there had been
any such change in his political principles could pos.

election.
Mr. IIiard has settled the question raised on this
point the most satisfactory by addressing note

Gen. Sherman's official report of the capture of
Atlanta. 1t is dated twenty-six miles south of
Atlanta, at SIX o'clock on Saturday morning, but
was detained by the breaking of the telegraph lines
The Secretary Of War has made public the follow
ing extract from it:
As already reported, the army withdrew from about
Atlanta, and the 30th had made break Of the West
Point road and had reached good position from which
to strike the Macon roadhe right under the command
Of oHoward being Jonesboro the left under Scho6ed

and was easily repulsed, leaving his dead and wounded
Finding strong opposition the road, advanced the

movement interposed my whole army bewe m Atlanta

and about thousand prisoners.
In the night the enemy retreated SOUTH and have
followed to another of his hastily constructed lines

one that could supply him, and between him and
siderable part of his army blew up his magazines At

Atlanta ia ours, and fairly won.
Since the 5h of May we have been in constant battle
skrmish, and need Our losses will not exceed
twelve hundred and we have possession of three
hundred rebel dead two hundred and fifty wounded, and
fifteen hundred WELL"
A later despatch, from Gen. Slocum, dated at
Atlanta on Saturday night, at nine o'clock, states
that the enemy on evacuating Atlanta destroyed
seven locomotives and eghty-one cars loaded with
ammunition, small arms, and stores, and left four
teen pieces of artillery, most of them unipjured,
and large number of small arms.

was formerly done. By thus turning all his
sugars except the darkest molasses sugar, into
large bins and mixing them into one medium
grade, he has succeeded in realizing larger re-
ceipts from the same amount of juice or expen-
diture, than any other estate has probably done.
The New Orleans and Cuba sugar, not of
very superior whteness or quality, and contain
generally more molasses than ours of the same
color; but % popular they in the United
States for retail trade, that it is found that
ours approach these in quality the demand for
them is increased.
The SO Makee Molasses Pan"
An ingenious apparatus has been invented by
Capt Makee for boiling over the molasses. 1t
is a pan similar in shape and size to Cooks
sorghum pan evaporator, fitted up with tubes to
boil down the molasses by steam instead of by
fre-heat under the pan. The advantages of
steam are several: it avoids the tendency to
burn the molasses, does its work rapidly, and
with greater economy, as the surplus steam
is used from the engine. The quantity of sugar
obtained by this method of boiling is also larger,
the yield amounting to between four and five
pounds to the gallon. This molasses pan is SO
cheap, and does its work efectually, that it
will probably be introduced on to every planta-
ton that is not already supplied with steam
vacuum pan similar apparatus for boiling
the molasses sugar.
Free Use VS.. Patent Right
The inventions that have noticed,-the
moIasses pan and the double cart-had
they been originated in the States, would have
been thought worthy of patent right; but the
inventor, with the wish to planters sue
ceed, and every facility offered them for that
purpose, not only allows the free use OF them,
but has even constructed several of the pans for
others, and aided to get them into successful
operation on other plantations. The interest
shown in the prosperity of their brethren engaged
in the same occupation, is a trait of our plant
ers which aururs well for the future.
What First Glass Estate Yields.
During the present year the Makee plantation
has been very successful. and promises to produce
the largest amount of sugar yet obtained from
any one estate. Its product will probably real
ize at present rates, this year, over one hundred
thousand dollars, which shows what may be
expected from some of our leading estates, when
,ceH managed. Should the crops in 1865 prove
| equally heavy as those of this year and no un-
foreseen accident occurs, this estate will manu-
! facture over two millions 1900 ,O0O) of pounds
| of sugar 1t will not take many such planta-
tions to swell our exports 10 hSures "hion d ie"
wears since would have been deemed fabulous.
The Model Plantation
So far as our observations have extended, this
is the most complete sugar plantation on the
! islands In the mode in which the cane is cul-
tivated, in the plan of its mill and sugar-houses,
in the liberal and humane treatment OF the labor
ers, and in the great labor-saving contrivances
adopted and in use, it may justly be regardeH Ss
