An Enosburgh Sugar Orchard.

On the 9th ult. we had the pleasure
Of visiting what is, probably, one of tn,
largest and mostsystematically conducted
sugar orchard in this county, if not the
state. 1t is owned and operated by Mr.
John Whitcomb, and consists of two
thousand trees standing closely togeath-
er upon gentle slope of hill. Mr..
WIS apparatus for the manufacture of
sugar is model of system and perfection,
and brief description of it may be of
interest to both sugar makers and sugar
consumers,
He has located in different localities
of the orchard four large holders into
which the sap is stored, which is con-
veyed through tubing distance of 100
rods, branching out in different directions
for convenience in gathering. This tub
ing is set on posts eight or ten feet high,
with gradual descent to thesugar house,
SO that no sap can set back in any part
OF it and freeze His sugar house is a
large and commodious building, 80 by
40 feet, to which is attached to smaller
room for +" sugaring Off"
The sap is run into holders, which will
contain more then 800 pals full, and
from thence to the evaporators, of which
he has two near togeather. The evapora.
tors are 10 feet long and 40 inches wide,
aud when in full blast, together with
the pans for sugaring off, require the
constant attendance of two men. From
80 to forty cords of wood is consumed in
a season, some of which would be worth
less for other purposes His pan for
sugaring off is so arrange that it can be
removed from the arch and rolled away
from the fire with but exertion even
when it contains a batch of 800 pounds. I
Up to April 29th, Mr.. Whitcomb
made little over I 900 pounds Of sugar
He uses tub of Eastwood, of about the
capacity of the common butter tub. He
has on hand most Of this years produc-
ton, all of which has the appearance
OF the gilt edge article. Ga the day
of our visit Mr.. w. had just made 500
pounds, part Of which he putinto moulds
OF the brick pattern, each weighing
three pounds, and in appearance as good
as the first of the season. He informed
us that in one day, with everything IA
vorable, he could make 800 pounds of
sugar, if he had sap. After taking a
hasty survey of this interesting place,
and made the happy recipient of one of
the brick aforesaid, we departed, feel
ing fully repaid for our visit to the great
sugar manufacturer of Franklin county.

touched mans heart is something not

she remembers how his eyes looked into
hers how, prehaps, he touched her hand
with his, and her heart ached when he
turned away without that which she
could not give him. She love, some
one else. Some other man has all tho

but the two excused its absence by say
ing that Dan was getting ready to come
home. That was early in February,
and he was to come home the first of
March. The next Tuesday there was a
letter, but the writing was not little
Dams. 1t was strange business hand,
and the clerk felt cold chill go over
her as she turned il over 1t might be
good news but she feared not. "Mother"
came in at the regular hour, and she
turned pale as she took the envelope.
Her fingers trembled as she opened it,
and she had to wipe the mist out of her
eyes, before she could decipher word.
She hadn't read over four or five lines
when she uttered a moan and sank right
down, like one crushed by some awful
weight. They lifted her up and took
her homie, the letter clasped in her stiff
fingers, and though she came out of the
faint after while, her heart was broken |
and in week she was in her grave.
Dan was dead The letter said that he
was taken suddenly i'll, and that nothing
could save him. The blow was too heavy
for one of her gray hair and childish
heart, and her little cottage is without a
tenant.
No more letters commencing "Dear
Mother" come from the dead; and the
trembling hands which used to linger
fondly over the words: my dear boy.
Dan, are folded over lifeless breast,
there to rest till the angels unclasp
them. Detroit Free Press.

They are cheap. II costs nothing to

see person who is before the eyes, and
has expectations if not claims. II is very
easy to put OF the call long overdue TO
neglect sending an invitation to a party
TO one who is not ofmuch account to pass
former friend on the street without
recognition; to go and come, ignoring the
existence Of people who have rights and
feelings. And IL Is rs cowardly to do 60
as Il is easy and mean.
But the cheap, cowardly slight is as
hard TO bear as II is contemplate. How
il ranklcs. II stings like nettle. II is
