TIE LADY's MAN.-Our own private
opinion on the "lady's man." says Mrs.
Stephens, is thoroughly contemptible-a
sort of life hardly worth thinking about
a nutshell with the kernel withered up
somthing not altogether unpleasant to the
fancy, but of no earthly use. y woman of
sense would as soon put to sea in man
of war made of Shingles, or take up her
residence in cardhOuse, as dream of
attaching herself to a ladykiller.
Woman worth the name are seldom de-
ceived into thinking our lady's man the
choicest specimen Of his sex. Whatever
their ignorance may be, womanly intuition
must tell them that the men who live for
a great object, and whose spirits are 50
firmly knit together that they arc able 10
encounter the storms of life-men whose
depth and warmth offeeling resemble the
powerful current of feeling resemble the
bubbles on its surface-who, il they love,
are never smitten by mere beauty of form
or features that these men are more
worthy even OF occupying their thoughts in
id,e moments. than the fops and men about
town, with whose attentions they amuse
themselves. If we were to tell him this he
would only laugh-he has no pride about
him, although full of vanity, and it matters
not to him what we may broadly affirm or
quietly insinuate.
Slfl and delicate though he is, as imper-
yious to ridicule as a hod carrier, and AS re-
gardless of honest contempt as a city alder
man. Were you To hand him this article,
he would take it TO some social party and
read it aloud in the most mellihuoGs tone,
as an homage to his own attractions.

"Where are the men of ~ ?" shouted q
Newton orator. "Dead /" responded a sad
looking man in the middle aisle. The

LIZ the man what wrote that same, sim

hundred feet of sidewalk every time, he
would sing of it in a different style.

DEATlI.-We have all to die. How often
we hear this expression from saint and sin
ner. But it is really the best sentence the
Christian can use to convey the idea of en-
toring his long looked for home. Is it not
blessing to die, rather that we may have
perfect rest? Is it not the way that God
has wisely provided to take his children
home? Does the Christian really look at
his passage to glory as a drudgling task
which must be performed? We know
many of them do not; yet some of the more
nervous look through darkness into heaven,
but is it not caused from the gloomy way OF
which death is spoken, rather than their
own rational judgment? Had we near
and dear earthly friend in far off land,
would We hesitate to brave the rolling bill
lows and the stormy seas that We may see
that dear face, to grasp the hand, to hear
that loving voice? No, we would deem it
the greatest privilege. Christ has gone be-
fore; the way is clear to our heavenly
home; then why should we shrink from it?
Should it not thrill the soul with joy to
think of meeting that Saviour, in whose
blood we have been washed, to meet him
face to face who we have long seen by the
eye of faithp Is this not enough to light
our path to glory?

ON THE FORMATION OF MOLAS-
SEES.
BY W. EATHoRNE GILL.
From the Sugar Cone.)

Ihe origin of the moIasses continues to
be a moot point, whilst the avoidance of
MoIaSses Is, perhaps more desirable even
than the consequent increase of sugar pro-
duet by that avoidance. I beg to submit
an attempt at explanation Of its origin,
which had occasion recently to send to a
planter in the West Indies. / offer it now
under the impression that its publication
may come under the notice of others who
are interested in this important subject,
and possibly assist them in coming to a sat
istactory conclusion.
l apprehend we may entertain this ques-
ton, from the beginning, in the interest of
the practical planter, and in the absence of
the technical accomplishments ofthe scien-
tilic chemist. Common things too, can
sufficiently illustrate our subject.
The Juice Of the cane, which contains the
sugar, is, OF course, located in its pith, or
sap-vesseIs. These may be compared to q
bundle offragile pipes. These pipes or
tubes themselves are very thin, and their
substance is known as " celIuIose". They
are bound together By an outer skin or ring.
hardened by slick, as are the straWs of our
wheat plant, and they are cemented togeth-
er by a gummy matter, which becomes the
proXimate mover of mischief. It is this
gummy matter which passes into a state
of fermentation by simple contact with the
air.
When the cane is passed through the
mill, the pressure then bursts these pipes,
and the juice is set at liberty. The refuse
''megasse" is led one way, and the Juice
another, The mill does more when in
bursting these fragile tubes, it breaks
them also into most minute fragments,
which is invariably the case. This com
minuted debris OF the cane, is known as
" cush" in the West Indies. We find
these light, thin fragments of ceIIulose,
together UiH their ganmy coatings, distribut-
ed plentifulIy throughout the Juice to play
a twofold mischievous part, to the loss and
annoyance of all concerned. Before these
diffused atoms of celloluse can fall down
when the juice is left quiescent, we have
fermentation and acidity distributed at the
expense of contained sugar. This is the
apology for hurrying on the juice to the
CHARTERS, or the pans, to avoid the loss of
sugar. 1t is this gummy matter, so dis
tributed which furnishes the source of
fermentation, which quickly passes
on into the vinous and acetous stages of
fermentation, to be perpetuated with in
c%reasing avidity, by albumen, and the al
bumenoids also present in the juice-and
fed by contained sugar so long as sugar is
available, until vinegar be the ultimate re-
suit.
Much of this 8 already we'll known, and
indeed it is supposed to be guarded against,
to the extent Of adding lime to staturate
the acid, and boiling the juice to coagulate
the albumen and its congeners; although
we have the fact established long since,
and often determined and confirmed, that
starch, sugar, and alcohol, when acted on
by an alkali, stimulated by heat, become

CoUP DE SoLIEL-A FATAL CASE
The first fatal case Of sunstrOke this sea
son occurred yesterday, shortly before
noon, in East Wheeling, the victim being
a laboring man named James Page. The
deceased had been idle for some time, and
at ten o'clock yesterday morning started
on job Of assisting in putting compo.
sition roof on the Crescent Mill. He was
first placed at work on the roof, but the
"boss" deeming II too trying for him
owing TO the excessive heat, concluded to
relieve him Of it and place him ut some
lighter employment on the ground. Page
seated himself on pile Of pig metal, buI
he had not been long in that position be
fore he was overcome by the heat and fell
hcadlong, his forehead striking piece Of
iron aud cutting an ugly cash. Thepros'
trate man was picked up and carried into
the shade, but the poor fellow lived but
few moments. The deceased leaves 3 wife
and four children in rather destitute cir.

DAYS as yesterday, our citizens cannot ex.
