CORN SUGAR,

The Buffalo Commercial of the 7th states
that the parties interested 10 the recent discov-
cry of sugar to be manufactured from corn
actively engaged in making preparations
for the extensive manufacture of sugar by the
new method, and that they will be prepared
to put the new staple upon the market 10 few
days. The Commercial adds; Developments
which have been made since the matter was
first announced by US, have more than con-
frmed the statements made at that time, ard
more than justify the anticipatioos We indug-
ed in as to the complete success of the enter.

ROUGH ON THE EMsLIsHMEN.

Not long since shrewd Yankee came to
Boston from New Hampshire TO engage in
business. His first engagement was to drive
a hack for the accommodation of the visitors
at that fashionable and elegant hotel, the Rev.
ere House. He was soon put in charge of
two English gentlemen, who desired to see
Boston and its environs. After brief visit
to the Navy Yard, they ordered the driver to
take them to Bunker Hill. Arriving there
they spent much time in examining the ground
and its surroundings. Having satisfied their
curiosity SO far as the monument was concern
ed, they returned to the hack where they
found the driver sitting quietly upon his seat.

"this is the place believe, where we English
men gave you Yankees a dem'd threshing
about eighty years since?" "Well," says :he

IMPORTANT DECISION.

The Salem, Ohio, Republican, gives the re-
suit of trial at the late term Of the Colum-
biana Common Pleas Court, which is of some
Importance to politicians. The suit was brought
by Jeremiah Fisher colored man, against the
Trustees of Knox township, for refusing to re-
ceive his vote at the fall election Of 1863
The facts are thus stated by the Republican :
The plaintiff is a colored man, claiming to be
nearer white than black and at the October
election in 1863, he offered his vote to the de-
fendants who, as Trustees, were sitting as
Judges of the election, in Knox tp., when they
refused his vote. There was some conflict Of
testimony as to the circumstances under which
the vote was refused, but the preponderance of
proof indicated that the defendants refused to
receive testimony touching the qualifications
of the plaintiff as an elector. The proof was
overwhelming that the plaintiff possessed n
preponderance of white blood" and that
therefore he was entitled to vote, under the
Constitution of the State. The jury was out
but IA short time when they returned verdict
in favor of the plaintiff and against the de-
fendants for $500 and costs. The plaintiff is a
very intelligent man, of light color and Cau-
cassian features The defendants gave notice
of their demand for new trial.

THE FENIAN BROTHERHOOD.

This organization, upon whose spirit and
purpose we have commented from time to time,
is now in secret session in Cincinnati The
avowed object Of The meeting is to prepare
the Irish population of this country and Ire
land for an organized effort for Irish independ-
ence. The occasion which they hope for, to
inaugurate their movement, is the war which
they think must result from demanding of
England reparation for damages done our com
merce during the rebellion. 1t is probable
that very strong combination can be effected
by the Fenians for such an attempt.

SIZING IN CHURCH.

An American writer from London says that
in the churches there, whoever comes first,
whether gentleman or lady, takes the further
end of the slip, and those that follow fill up
the remaining seats; and thus prevent the
awkward disturbance which occurs iu our
churches here, in the process of filing IN and
out by men in order to insolate women at the
pews are free, the awkwardness and inconven-
ience Occasioned to ladies by the first comers
taking the aisle end of the pew is even great
er, as many of those who obtain that seat per-
sist it sitting still and making those who wish
to get into the pew climb over them no easy
or modest undertaking, especially if the crinO-
line OF a lady be at all fashionable. 1t is not
the one who does the climbing, however, but
the one who persists in sitting, that is to be
censured for this breach of courtesy. 1t is
said the habit of gentlemen taking the aisle
end of the pew originated with the early set
tiers, who sat near the doors of the pews so
that in case of an attack by the Indians they
might be ready for action. This will account
for the prevailing fashion of gentlemen occu-
pying the door end OF the pew, but we have
authority for the custom OF ladies occupying
that position. As there is no longer any dan
ger of attacks from Indians. we think this Gus
tom of filing out and in like parcel of SOL
diers on the part of gentlemen, might we'll be
changed, and we hope that the English Gus
tom may be adopted by the ladies.

THE SEEMING AND THE REAL.

Who shall judge man from his manners

Satin vests could 10 no more.
There are springs of chrystaI nectar
Ever yelling out OF stone;
There are purple buds and golden.
Hidden, crushed and oyergrown:
God, who cou nts by souls not dresses,
Loves and pr Ospers you and me,
While he values thrones, the highest,
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man, upraised above his fellows,
Oft forgets his fellows then,
Masters, rulers, lords, remember
That your meanest binds are men,
Men by labor, men by feeling,
Men by thought, and men by fame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine,
In mans ennObling name.
There are foam embroidered oceans,
There are little weed clad rills.
There are feeble, iRch high saplings,
There are cedars on the hills
God who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and prospers you and me;
For, to Him, all vain distinctions
Are as pebbels in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
OF a nations wealth or fame;
Titled laZiness is pensioned.

While the poor mans outraged freedom
Yainly lifted up its voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,

Boundless love to you and me,

General Seymour says, in a letter to the
New York Times:
"Lee's army thoroughly defeated in deci-
sive battle, and not only Fort Fisher, and
Wilmington, but the rebellion itself will fall.
1t would have fallen and died before this, il
even one half the last draft bad been realized
to our armies. If it is desirable to end i: at
all, the more effectually this draft is filed the
better for us in the field.
"And the soldiers Of this army, while hop
ing everything for the future, certainly think
that Lees army will not soon be subdued il
the trickery, the shufiing and lack of manli-
ness that made the last draft a nulity, are also
to characterize this.

What if that man has cheated you or that wo-

has forsalren you in your time of need, or that
one, having won your utmost confidence, has
concluded that he prefers to consider and
treat you as a stranger? Let it all pass. What
difference will it make to you in a few years,
when you go hence to the undiscovered

more sorry for it then, than you, even in your
deepest disappointment and grief, can be.

Mono TEooPa While earnest efforts
are being made to ill up our quota with
white men, we should not loose sight Of
the fact that there are large numbers Of
eolored men in the city and county who
would make good soldiers, aud who are
liable to the draft.
There is no good reason why these
men should be left out, as they have as
much interest in the success of the
Government as white men, Many Of
these negroes, we are told, are anxious
to enlist, but there seems to be no one
authorized or willing to enlist them.
Arrangements should be made at once,
that these willing fellows should be mus.
tered in, else some OF the agents of
other counties who are prowling around

will loose the credit of them.

KsntuckIans Against Slavery.

that the institution Of slavery is dead

vent its offending the nostrils Of the ma
ton, and they hesitate not to declare
for It's immediate intsrment

fore the Kentucky Legislature, urging
the immediate abolition of slavery 10

B6s- The House COMMITTEES have re-
ported sundry amendments to the En-
rollment Act These amendments make
it the duty of every person to have him
self enrolled, and of every boy arriving
at the age of 20 to do the same. No
one is to be :freed from enrolment on
account of physical disability; his name
must 60 on the rolls any way, aud the
question of disability is one that must
afterwards be left to the surgeons. The
other most important change made is to
hold any drafted person who may put in
substitute responsible for the service
of bis substitute. If the substitute de-
serts, then the person originally drafted
is called upon to furnish another substi.
tute, or to enter the service himself.
