.MOLAssEs-FOr many years before the
war the yield of molasses was computed at
20 gallons to the hogshead of sugar,
but in 1867, owing to the extraor-
binary richness of the cane. it was
only Is gallons, since which it has
ranged from 653a to 7S, with the exception
of 1915, when, agreeabiy to the crop
statistics Of that year, it gave the unusual
proportion of l0l gallons to the hOgehead.
This was no doubt correctly attributed to a
freeze in November which deteriorated the
cane to such an extent that large part of
it was almost valueless for making sugar,
but yielded molasses copiOuely. The ratio
for the past year indicates the fact that the
crop had escaped such misfortunes and that
the cane was extraordinarily rich, the yield
being 1854 bble, or, at 40 gallons to the
barrel, 1854 $50 gallone, against l39, 4Ol
hhds of sugar, showing an average yield of
q little over 6Sls gallons to the hOgshead.
The following conclusions have been
drawn from DR.. Jones' chemical analysis
of the different varieties of m0lasses:
|. The Louisiana mOlaeses is decidedly
superior in appearance and taste TO the
other varieties of molasses offered in this
market.
2. The proportion of crystallizable sugar
is greatest in Louisiana mOlaeeee, while the
proportion of uncrystallizable sugar is the
least. ne Louisiana mOlas6e6 Is, In0ro-
fore, the most valuable, and the best suited
to the purposes Of the candy manufacturer,
confectioner and baker
3. The Louisiana molasses contains far
less inorganic salts than the other varieties
Of mOlasses. Thus a gallon of Louisiana
molasses does not contain over 400 grains
of salts, while the Northern molasses con-
taiDs from $500 to 800 grains. This is
point OF great interest, not only because
these salts interfere with the crystaliza-
ton Of the cane sugar, but also because
they act as purgatives upon the bowels.
The Louisiana 'mOlasses may be considered
as almost entirely free from these impuri.
ties.
4. TheLouisiana molasses is entirely free
from iron salts, while in the samples of
Northern eyrups the salts of iron vary from
$50 to 500 grains per gallon. These salts of

OATs.-At the commencement of the year
we apprehended further shrinkage in the
receipts of this article, in consequence of a
large portion of the country formerly sup
piled from our market raising enough for
home consumption, or making its purchases
at other points, and noted as a significant
fact that Northeastern Texas was not only
no longer dependent upon our market, but
raised a surplus for shipment to other
points. This expectation has been realized,
the receipts for the past year embracing
1871 sos sacks, against Al sos last year.
The present indications are that the incom-
ing year will show still further falling of,
the Southern crop being abundant, ana a
still larger portion of the country formerly
supplied by this port now raising enough
for it's own consumption, or drawing it's
supplies from other points.
The following compares the monthly re-
ceipts and sales with last year:

PORK.-At the commencement Of the year
we had reason to anticipate low prices for
hog meat. Last year, with corn ranging
from $40 ISL 10 y bushel, the extremes OF
mess pork were $l7 and $26 50. In the past
year the extremes of the former have been
% and 93c, and of the latter $40 so and 500,
the mean between the extremes being $50
tor corn and s2l IS for pork in 1S74-75, and
721sc for the former and $23 25 for the lat.
ter tor the past year. This is grave mat
ter for the Southern planter. There are
few articles produced at the West in which,
he has greater interest than hog meat 1t
constitutes, in fact, one of the chief ele-
Southern crops. Looking to the incouinp
year, our bountiful crops of corn promise
to make US nearly independent of the West
with regard to that cereal. Not 70 with
pork and bacon, the consumption demand
for which must he mainly supplied by the
Western product. But even with regsrd 70
hog meat it is probable that more viii be
made IN the South this year than iu any
former season. We believe it TO
be an erroneous idea that hog rais,
ing and packing can not lie carried
on advantageously at the S,uth.
Both nave been done successful. or at
least to the satisfaction of tho pa, lea an
