100 Barley.

IOO DdITty. IUO WdIls
II is quite clear that if the barley contained less glu-
ten and starch, there would be less sugar in the malt
and that ifthese substances could be increased 10 the
barley, the sugar would be increased in the malt. In
fact, the scientific farmer does sometimes so modify
his barley by culture aud manure as to produce this eff.
feet, fit is intended for mailing, but not otherwise.
From these considerations, l think it follows clearly
enough, as was stated to me by the Editor of the Agrs-
cultural Gazette, that the quantity of sugar yielded by
the c%ane-Plant, will depend on the general health and
vigonr of the plant, and to this object must the manure
be adapted. We have seen, however, that nitrogen
conveyed to plants is one means of increasing their
health and growth ; it follows that ammonia is a valua-
bly, article of manure in cane cultivation. But still fur
Their, Liebig expressly informs us, that in the process
of certain carefully conducted experiments upon maple
tree sugar, he and DIR. Wilbrand found that that sub
stance contained ammonia in considerable quantity ;
and that the same is the case with beet sugar, he tells
us, is we'll known. We have, therefore, every reason
TO believe that accurate analysis would discover it in
cane sugar; and that ammonia would thus be shown TO-

sugar as the plant becomes active, and in that form fur
nlshes the most suitable food for the plant. 1t is by
taking advantage of this natural process that barley is
converted into malt. In fact, the maltster places his
barley on proper floors under the most favourable cir
cnmStances for inducing termination, and just as this
process has been firmly established he arrests it, and
then finds that a great alteration has been effected in
the combination ofthe elements forming the seeds and,
especially that there is now a greatly increased quanti-
ty Of sugar. Brande gives the following tabular view

The Gold GambIer,s GIoatine

The Gold Gamblers GI0ating
A Herald reporter interviewed Mr..
Greeley after the latter had received the
news of his nomination. We extract
the following significant passage from
the report of the conversation that en-
sued: @ R
THE EFFECT IN THE GOLD ROOM.
AT this juncture a new batch of
friends came into the room and pre-
Sented their congratulations
"Did you hear the effect in the Gold
Room, MIR. Greeley?" said one.
"No, did not"
stNVell when the worn came, some
one in the Gold Room sung out, A
hundred and twelve millions of gold TO
be realized The effect was electrical.
At the next turn of the indicator gold
fella half cent"
THE FUTURE SPECIE PAYMENT
POLICY.
"WelI," said Mr.. Greeley, "PIl have
that hundred and twelve millions re-
leased" -.
'sHa! har' said the visitor; $50 you
consider your election sure
"No,n responded Mr.. Greeley; "but
do think that the moral effect of the
nomination will urge Boutwell, 20 un
lock his Golfers. If Pm elected I'll un
lock 'em quick enough
The above furnishes an illustration Oi
the kind of President we should have
if Mr.. Greeley should happen to bt
elected. He would be willing to un
lock the Treasury and expose its gol(
TO the handling of the gambling opera
tors of Wall street. Good common
sense teaches that the retention of /;
large amount of gold in the Treasury
is all that has kept the country inan
cially level during the years since thu
close of the rebellion-and that to opel
the Treasury wouli !;e o, IKE the golt

land the ruin of hundreds of Thousand
of business men. Secretary Boutwell,
in investing ten millions of gold pc
month in bonds, is going quite ia
enough in that direction, as we thinl
will be obvious to all who give tn
matter due reflection.
1t is no wonder that the report i
circulated that Mr.. Greeley has bee
packed off to the retirement of his farn
to keep his injudicious remarks frou
being made public-and the force {

This week we make eur first an
aouncement for Congress subject to the
decision of the coming convention,
Hon. j. DUNBAR of Steubenville, is a
lawyer of high standing, gentleman
of acknowledged ability .!and has con-
neutrality-suspicious. in the affairs of our
government. By the new re-districting
bill he is thrown into his old District.
We believe that up to this time with
the exception of his residence in Steu-
benville, he has lived in this District
about sixteen years. We look upon
him as a strong candidate and would
not be surprised that any boasts of a
perpetual base upon the honor of be-
ing Congressman from the new District
would be seriously called in question.
We are decidedly in favor of the pri-
mary meeting method of choosing can
didates. We want no more packed
conventions. The safe majority we
now have viii allow us full discus
sion of the claims which the several
candidates may have upon the people
and we do not propose to keep silent,

How about GREELEY What will
be the effect of his nomination upon
the Republican party? are brace of
questions daily asked but not answered.
The fact is we have been waiting like
our Democratic friends for develop
ments and we must confess that they
come in vexingly slow. GREELEY has
accepted and Notwithstanding his
previous declaration that he would
withdraw from the support of a liberal
candidate in case the Democrats should
make nomination, he is entirely mum
upon that point now, and the general
prediction is GREELEY will run regard
less of consequences. The call for q
Democratic Convention to meetin Bal.
timore on the 9th of July, together with
the general dissatisfaction with the
GREELEY ticket gives us strong reason
for believing that third candidate vii
be put in the field. In that case W.

CLARK whose letter we, print in thi
issue. A desperate effort will be mad
to defeat the denomination of GRAN

compromise by selecting WILSON

We think that GRANTS defeat cannC
be effected. The only question is wi
he withdraw of his own accord. HI
independent disposition may lead hil
to do this.

On the 4th of last month fearful
example of mans inhumanity to man
occurred in the China seas. A slave
trading ship loaded with $50 Coolies
Kidnapped by the Portuguese and
bound for Peru was burned and the
whole slave crew destroyed, excepting
fifty. The coolies were cooped up on
lower deck and only ten allowed at a
time on upper deck to get fresh air.
Some difficulty arose between the emf
grants and the crew, whereupon some
of the Coolies set fire to the ship below
and the crew having fastened down
the matches to prevent their escape,
deserted the ship and the poor wretches
were roasted alive or smothered by the
smoke.

tention Of rival candidates for the
nomination. This We trust will not
again occur and we feel confident that
whatever be the wishes of the candi-
dates the rank and file of the party will
allow no individual preference to dis
turb the good feeling that led us on to
victory one year ago. Ever ready to
