An invention which threatens to
interfere greatly with our commerce
j. reported from Paris, and ii it
proves a success iC will probably
have the effect of causing an entire
revolution among the Southern plan
tiers. This new discovery is meth
cd of making sugar by uniting into
compound its constituent atoms of
carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The
inventor, Mr.. JOuglet, says that the
cost of production will be 80 cents
per cwt., and he has already so far
succeeded in establishing the utility
OF its invention that a company of
manufacturers have been persuaded
TO purchase it from him tor the COM
paratively moderate sum of $24O 600.
What the sugar planters and retiners
will do if this discovery turns out to
be as important as it promises re-
mains to be seen but there is no
doubt that if it is only partially sue
Cessful strange developments may be
expected. The invention is said to
be very simple and one easily eX-
planned. and endless quantities of sac
charine substance can, it is claimed,
be manufactured by this new process
in so short time and at so small
cost as to preclude the possibility Of
competition.

AFACT of some importance in connec-
ton with the farmers movement is the
yield of the corn crop soon to be harvested.
According to dispatches from Chicago this,

than one-half to two thirds the average
amount. Should these indications be cor
rect, and the corn crop greatly cut down,
Wa may look for less pressure on the

prices for corn, aud considerably better net
