%. What is the worth Of a gallon Of mo-
lasses !; and how much does it cost
for Iabour, firewood, &C., for making
a gallon CT rum ID. Molasses worth
from Sd. to 15I. per gallon.
80. IL cutting caue is it the practice to
cut the top off at about the same
place of Eipeness as we do, or do they
cut more off than we do to make the
juic' better I'd. Cut fully as much
as we do-mo'e, 1 believe. The tops

81. What is The general method adopt

whole seasons work ID. 1t used to
be SO. OF late years the factories
are much more particular, and grow
ers do not attempt to make big sappy
canes.
90. Do they consider certain aged canes
to be ripe if the density was low ac-
cording to season, or do they consider
ripeness to be measured by density ?
Il, Practically, density is the standard
the density known by cutting and
chewing pieces of cane.
81. Would the words, in any agreement
of cane sold or purchased, 'to be
taken when ripe,' mean a certain
density, or would it mean when the
cane was old enough, and as ripe as
it could be during the season "a.
The factory manager arranges when
the cane is to be delivered to the fac.
tory. 1t is then sent as it is.
20, What is the practice with regard to
the stoppage of the mill by rainy
weather during the time a person
was cutting ? Is the cane. grower
charged for the stoppage Of the mill ?
"A. | put this question directly, and
understood the answer to be that they
make every effort, by keeping cane
close to the mill in reserve, to pre-
vent such occurrences. And l be-
lieve they succeed.
%. How is the cane cut, and what are
the sort Of Wagons or carts used in
carting the cane I'd. They use long

soto; or, IA Game OF Chance.

This il the title Of play that was pro
duced AZ the Walnut Street theatre, last
evening, 10 introduce Mr. George 5.
Knight, the Dutch comedian, and the
Worrell Sisters in some OF their special
ties. The play is in four acts, and We
presume was written for the artis! who
enacted the leading role. There are
strongly drawn dramatic scenes in the
piece The po. is An old one-the rich
man who built his fortune on the legacy
of an orphan, and becomes respectable;
the william who discovers the secret and
the orphan, and uses them to extort
money from the conscience stricken
brewer, and finally becomes holder
by success, and wishes to marry
into the family heroic orphan
who captures and destroys the
proof OF the rich mans guilt because he
(the orph&n) loves the daughter Of the
man who has deirauded him of his birth
right; final triumph of love and heroism
and disappearance of the toiled villain.
This is the story, the only departure from
the beaten track being that the hero Is II
sentimental young German, newly ar
rived in America, and the part in the
hands of Mr.. Knight excites more than
sympathy -PhiiadeLphia North Ameri-
can, -Atg,lst u, 1877. The above play Is
