An important Discovery.

From the New Y1rl, Journal of Commerce.
The public will be Interested to learn
that the claim OF Prof. GocS>ling Ia Ger
man chemist. residing. we believe at Cin-
cinnati, to the discovery Of new process
Whereby crvstalized sugar can he made
from corn arch. Is about to he put to a
practical test 1t Was sail that the pro-
fes>or hail succeeded 10y this process in OBJ
taining three and half to four gallons Of
hcautiiul white syrup from hu,hel ut
corn; and had at last solved the problem
which has heretofore puzzled the chemists
all over the world, ly discovering a meth
od Of turning this syrup Into granula'ed
sugar, similar TO the product OF the cane
The production of the syrup is doubtless
true. although we may be little skeptical
in regard to the quantity sai.l to lie OBJ
iainrd from bushel OF corn. THIS syrup
/, beautifully white. and can he used even
in tea without daik ikening the Infusion
Mo,ever the process j. said to lie so simple
that it may be carried on in small way in
iae kitchen of any farm house. with only
the ordinary household utensils. ii this
svrup can be crystalized like the saccha-
zine matter from cane. then the whole
! world may well be called upon to rejoice
over the discovery. A company of veal
thy gentlemen in this city have purchased
the secret we understand, for 800, coo.
and having taken the steps to obtain
patent. propose TO erect a factory to test
its usefulness. We have also been told.
although we have not the means at hand
to verify the information, that an old pro-
cess is on record for making syrup from
potato starch. which is very similar to the
discovery above noticed. The whole ques
ticn is one Of great interest. aud will ex
cite much public attention.
The results which are destined to flow
from the new discovery are so vast. and Of
such national importance. that they will
readily suggest themselves TO reflective
minds. The Northwestern States Of
America are the greatest sources of the
WORKS. production of maize or Indian
corn. The vast prairies are capable OF
producing an almost unlimited supply of
corn and. under the process OF develop
ment TO which they have been subjugated. 1.
the problem has arisen, as to how their
golden harvest shall best be secured to ths
world and male available in the great
economy of lie.
The corn crop Of the west, limitless as
! it may be in the future. Is now destined to
become the source Of the worlds supply OF
sngar. or its equivalent. syrup. and the
i West, the repository of untol'l wealth.
The new era of sugar manufacture will, to
a great extent, derange the old currents of
trade. The west will become great su-
gar producing. as we'll as a great corn
growing region. Its great staple will be
compacted both in bulk and value, for the
manipulations of commerce. The sugar
consumed by the West will be cheapened
by escaping eastward freight on the corn
required to produce it. and the westward
freight on the manufactured staple.

Among the many odd customs which
distinguish the Japanese. is one which
would startle the young ladies of Amer ca.
Beneath the windows of their houses an
empty flower pot is often seen, "lying
horizontally on the portico roof" Its
position cannot be accidental, since it is
seen in so many cases--nor can it be look
ed upon as a religious symbol. for then
there would probably be one on each
house. 1t is nething more nor less than a
matrimonial advertisement, the plain Eng

A Jrst Tribute to Western Soldiers.


The splendid fighting qualities exhibited

annapolis Journal. in the presen, war. cod
not fail to attract the attention of observ-
ers in other portions of the county. and
has given the civilized world higher ap-
probation of American prowess thah was
previously entertained.
The Philadelphia North American, in
commenting upon the recent successes in
Tennessee. after giving praise to TIE cav
airy. under General Wilson. pays the fol-
lowing compliment TO the infantry who
routed Hood from his entrenchcd positions
in front of Nashville.
The strength of that army lay in its SUI
pnrb infantry. trained under the lead OF
such men as Generals Thomas, y. j.
Smith. Schofeld. Stanley. Wood. etc =
Our western infaniy has throughout this
war teen superior TO any of the rel el in
finiv against which it has been arrayed.--
Al Nashville it fought with the same oour-
age as everywhere else. driving the foe at
the point of the bayonet, storming breast
works. and winning the chief laurels Of
battle hy sheer valor anil desperate fight
ing. In pitched battle. and when we'll
handled. this splendid infantry can always
gain victory.
Tie remarks Of our Philadelphia co.
temporary are Just. There has never been
better or Drawer body cf infantry than
that which has fought the great battles of
the Mississippi Valley.

While meath the SUI face of the ground,
Exhau.tleSs mineral wealth is found,
Old ocean bears upon her breast,
The products of the fertile west,
In ships. whose starry aig's unfurled,
In every harbor OF the world.
The angel Peace has spread her hands
Between us and all foreign lands,
Though despots see with Jealous eye
The star OF Freedom rising high.
Which, like the star OF Bethlehem, .
It's beauteous light will ere long send,
Until our carth's dirk corners shine
With liberty to all mankind.

The LOYAL mass OF human minds
Around our liberty cntwines.

Can check the m ,rch SD we'll begun,
The powers above have clothed with might
The cause OF Justice, Truth and Right.
Then let it come--wc only pray,
God speed the longej for. h,ppy day,
When peace again throughout our land
Shall on the base of freedom stand
And then our f,g-God bless each star
That shines uniimncd through clouds of war.

Since meath your fold our brothers fell,

The diamond fever has been raging furi-

only two claims, each 800 feet square, we've
kept cool, watched its progress, and the ex>
citement seems to have reached the point Of
elimination. This excitement is one that
has diamonds or crystals, which stand every
known diamond test, for foundation Col
FOCUS, Geo. Collier Robbins, Messrs. Dewey
& Mu>grave, have have each subjected these
crystals to the severtst tests known, and they
are convinced Of the existence of genuine
diamonds in the new dstrict-the laws of
which are in this paper. The crystals found
are small, from the size Of grain Of sand to
that of small grain Of wheat, but they exist
all over tract of country forty miles square
Viewed with glass, they present the shape
and true diamond face. The prospecting has
been done hastily and imperfetty, There
is much greater quantity of quartz brought
10 than diamonds. This arises partly from
a want of information on the matter, partly
from a highly wrought zeal, and to a great
extent disposition to burlesque So far
from this being real subject OF burlesIue,
it is one that commands the careful attention
