To TIL EDITOR OF THE ST. CRoIx Avis.
Mr.. Editor,
Believing that every contribution con-
corning the manufacture Of beet sugar
will interest your readers, / send you
to-day the following lines, with accom-
panying samples =.
At the invitation of the manager of the
Lolland Factory, | paid a visit to that
establishment in the beginning of October,
at the commencement of this campaign.
There was a great quantity of beets to
be worked, enough to keep the factory
busy for several months. The beets are
not large as q consequence of the dry
weather in the spring, but for that reason
all the better for the factory, as they
contain less water. S p. cent. sugar
was considered the minimum. I was
assured that in st. Croix only S p. cent.
was obtained, because all the sugar is not
expressed in order that the megass may
make better fuel. 1t is no doubt right
to say, that we do not express al that
is in the cane, but that it should be pur-
posely left there, is erroneous.
am not able to give a full description of
the machinery used in washing and cutting
the beets, nor would it probably interest
your readers, but the result of the whole
process and of the use of vacuum pans,
centrifugals, lime, charcoal etc, is that
in 2 days the beets are transformed into
perfectly dry and good sugar.
The sample marked No. l is raw sugar.
1t has a peculiar taste which has not vet
been successfully combated anywhere,
for which reason it is not wanted by
r%einers and less by consumers. It is
therefore subjected to a costly process
OF cleansing in order to convert it into
the handsome, pure crystals exhibited
in sample No 2. These crystals are
then crushed, and in this form the product
is brought to market. This sugar, al
though most excellent, is yet too dear,
and in Denmark, good MuScovado, which
goes under the name of St. Croix sugar,
is yet generally preferred for domestic
purposes.

IN MEMORlCM.
DIED-At Bozcman. on the 18th Aug. 1874
JOSEPH j. PARHAAI.


Colonel Parham, the subject Of this obitu-
ary, was one OF the pioneers of the Galla.ln
valley. lie was born in Tennessee, and at
the time of his death was about 40 years of
age. He came, in company with Colonies
Vaughan aud Owens. from St. Lo uis in 1866,
on business venture with the former, bring.
ing q train and merchandise valued at about
$4,000, and settled in Bozeman opening
his stock in what is now known as the old
Masonic building. He also engaged in the
lumber business and for time prosperity
attached to all his undertakings; but mis-
fortunes of sweeping character soon fol-
lowed and nearly all was eventually lost.
Colonel Parham, however, honorably as
sum-d all The Territorial obligations OF the
firm, and, sacrificing himself aud bis future,
eventually settled all such indebtedness.
Justice to him demands the assertion that
he was not really responsible for all the dis
as:er that followed the firm, and his intimate
friends here we'll know that his after life was
embittered by the undcserved blame he suf-
tered at the hands of some who judged him
in ignorance Of the facts Of the case.
Colonel Parham was evidently no ordinary
man-alwsys the quiet, refined, unpretend-
ing gentleman, with a good word Tor all, he
was respected by all who knew him here.
and his opinion and advice were valued as
reliable. Ills sad, disappointed manner, his
quiet geDtlencss. drew the few who well
knew him toward him in no usual way, aud
the corteee that followed him to his last rest
ing place was composed Of those who knew
him we'll in life and hon0red him in death.
A few days before. his death be received the
news of the death OF his wife-this was prob
ably the blow that sent him so suddenly to
tire END OF earthly things. lie leaves three
childr n in La Grange, and family connec-
tons in Missouri, Mississippi and Tennessee.
The writer, paying this poor tribute to his
memory, does so in remembrance of many
personal kindnesses, and as an expression of
the feeling of those who knew him through
many years Of trial and sorrow only to be
bound to him by the ties of affection aud re-
gard.

WHAT Is THE MATTER 1.-The
old jade of the Gazette presented a
livelier appearance last week, and
ambled Of, as though she was un'
der whip and spur. For some time
past she has been browsing around
in aquiet sedate way, suited to her
age sand condition. During her
masters absence laying in a supply
of Pinchbeck political wares, the
old jade was beginning to assume a
more respectable appearance than
usual, left as she vas unmolested,
to pursue the even tenor of her way
in fields that suited her tastes.
But the master has returned, and
the time for the peddling out of his
political wares has arrived. The
old jade must be harnessed up, she
may sometime foam and fret, but
the memorable master cares not fol
her choler. She at times hesltates
but the master spurs, the old jade
winces, and off she goes!
