when the cane isto be cut, and ! heard no CON-
plant concerning that part Of the arrangement.
Respecting the machinery employed, my belief
Is that it will pay any party, about 20 establish =
large factory. to visit these islands and Louisi-
ana Something desirable can be seen 10 each or
them, aud something like a correct estimate can
be formed of the respective merits and cost Of
boiling in yacuo, IN steam pans Ia plan largely
followed in America 10 opens or battery, and
IN the cOucretOr tray. That, as . whole, the
open pan system for boiling Is most effective for
plantation use. l am very much disposed 10 be-
lieye. For drying sugar, a decided improvement
is made in the Laferty centrifugal machine, an
American continuance. The vacuum pan same
design as that common in the c~olonies) Is every
where in favor. In mills. the most decided i'm
provement of all was seen on the plantation Of
Mr.. John Dymond. Belair, lower coast Of Loui-
siana. As q whole, Mr.. Dymondls is. / believe,
the best ordered seen during the whole trip, aud
he, as well as Others amongst the highly intellI-
gent planters Of America, IS working towards
the central factory system. / spent several days
very pro6tably at Belair. and the manager. Mr..
Brady, has furnished me with minute particulars
OF the system OF working followed. On this es-
tate cane is purchased from outsiders, and some
1900 acres are subdivided and let TO tenant farm
ers-both white and c0lored men. On an aver
age 50. so per ton is paid for the cane grown by
tenants, ard they are aided by advances in money
and goods. the use Of mules, etc, l had every
opportunity to see how the system worked. and
feel assured it will soon become general in the
South.
At Belair double sets of rollers are employed
for crushing. That Is, the cane passes through
an ordinary three rollers mill, and again through
q second set of three rollers. 4 revolving band
carries the crushed cane from the first TO the
second set Of rollers. There is soaking or
sprinkling of the cane for the second crushing f;
yet the gain in liquor is found to be II per cent.
The total return of juice at the Belair mill is
between Go and 20 per cent. of the weight Of
cane crushed and, as a whole. this is in all
probability the highest return Of juice / have
yet seen. The first set Of rollers are 5 feet by
30 inches, and the second set 3 feet by 80 inches.
The first are run at Is feet per minute, and the
second IL feet; the complete machine taking in
from 275 to 800 tons of cane daily.
During my travels / have seen nothing TO sur
pass the Belair mill. but the tendency every.
where is for heavier crushing machinery, and
enough has been done in this direction to prove
that one of the first steps in profitable sugar
manufacture is to get every possible drop of liquor
from the cane.

PING FROM A PENI7ENTIARY
IN BROAD DAYLIGHT

A remarkable escape was affected from
the Pittsburgh Penitentiary early in the
afternoon Of last Saturday by prisoner
named John Coates, who assembled the
tower aud left himself down outside the
wall distance of forty feet, by means of
a rope made of carpet chain. The escape
was accomplished in broad daylight and
in full view of at least dozen persons.
The keeper unguardedly left him for
few moments to attend to some other
prisoners, and was greatly astonished on
returning to find him gone. AS he was
sliding down the wall he was discovered
by several gentleman, who gave an alarm
but too late for immediate chase, The
fugitive, as he fed in westerly direction
in his blind haste ran against tree with
full force, but was only staggered. lie
collected himself and resumed his flight,

SENATOR PAT7ERSON'S CASE.
Rr.State Senator Mar,UeH Te8tife8 that he
Was Bribed by Patterson.

Washington, October lS.-Attorney.
General Connor of South Carolina, left
Washington this afternoon for home and
the case of Senator Patterson will proba-
bly, remain IN 8tatu quo until the 3lst inst,
to which date the hearing in the habeas
corpus case was adjourned on Thursday
before Justice Humphreys. Senator Pat,
terson declines to say anything about his
case on the plea of courtesy towards the
Court before which his case is pending.
Attorney-General Connor requested a
postponement of the hearing ostensibly
for the purpose of transaCting other legal
business in South Carolina, but the gene.
raj impression seems to be that by iu-
diCious delay and the use of new and
convincing proofs of Patterson's guilt,
that his election to the Senate in 1872
was procured by corruption and bribery.
Patterson may be forced from his seat in
the Senate before the end of the session.
The principal evidence against Patterson
comes from a Colored State Senator nam
GU bldA hCllJ lO udS ICE Sl6u lllS SedJ D6-
cause of other corruption of which he has
been guilty. Maxwell testifes that when
a tie existed in the State Senate between
Patterson and his competitor, ex. Cover.
nor Scott, Patterson paid him money to
change his vote, thereby securing Patter-
sons election. 1t is surmised that At
torney General Connor returned to Co.
lumbia to prepare and bring on to Wash.
ington the newly discovered proofs of
Patterson's corruption. Should Senator
Patterson ask for a committee from the
Senate to investigate the charges against
him covered by the indictments, the al
legations OF bribery would also doubtless
be investigated.

TRAIN ROBBER BERRY.
Scattering Stolen Gold and Awakening
SuspiciOn--EsCape and Capture.
CFrom the Chicago Times.)

st. Louis, Oct. l4.-Jim Berry, one of
the Union Pacific train robbers, was cap
tured in Galloway county, Mo. He had
about $2,S00 on his person, and was bad
ly wounded in the leg. He was brought
TO this city, and is under guard. On Fri
day of last week. when the train from
Jefferson City steamed up to the depot at
Mexico, a stranger, with pair Of saddle
bags thrown across his arm, got off. His
hair was long and hung in tangled mats
about his shoulder, and his beard vas
long. A colored porter escorted him to
the hotel, offering to carry his saddle
bags, but this he would not allow. Ar.
rived at the hotel, the negro's curiosity
led him to lift the baggage, and he de-
Clared his belief that it was full Of horse
shoes. Early the next morning, or as
soon as the banks were opened, the
stranger visited the latter and sold So 600
in gold at each of them, making the ag-
gregate of $4,000. He took the package
of currency in his arm and started out
for a lark, first going to a barber shop,
where he had his hair cut, and good
portion of his whiskers shaved of. 1t
was not long before he met some acquain-
tances, who had been with him in the
Black Hills, and recognized him as Jim
Berry, whose residence is fifteen or
twenty miles south of Mexico, in Gala
way.
In the meantime the City Marshal had
come to the conclusion that this man was
one of the Union Pacific express robbers
and so firmly convinced was he Of it,
that he called around him a few reliable
men and determined to arrest him. They
followed him into the barber shop, think.
ing to nab him while he was in the chair,
the marshal having pair of handouts in
his pocket ready for service. They in
spected the fellow closely, and saw that
he was heavily armed. He was known
to have been one of the most desperate
members of that company of rough riders
who followed the fortunes of Bill An
derson during the war Their hearts
failed them and they abandoned the un
dertaking.
Berry remained in Mexico all day
Friday and until late on Saturday even
ing. Meeting an old mining acquain-
tance, be gave him $3.50. He delighted |
a Jew clothier by purchasing a fine suit
of clothing without hggliDg at the price
and bought $500 bill of groceries which |
were sent to his family in Galloway. On |
Saturday evening he took his departure. |
The bankers received news that the gold |
he had exchanged, and which they had
shipped to st. Louis had been identified
as part of the treasure captured by the
Union Pacific robbers. A corps of detec,
tives from St. Louis and Chicago arrived |
at Mexico, and with the Audrain county
sheriff at their head, started in pursuit of
Berry.
After long ride his house was reached
and the party so disposed as to surround
it. Narrowing the circle and gradually
closing in, rush was finally made for
the house but Berry had escaped.

THAT$5,OOO.

That 5000 sent to Ohio by the Boston
Republicans for election purposes was
thrown away, and what makes the con-
tributors to the fund feel its loss is the
tact that the money is sadly needed just
now in the old Bay State. But such a
sum would be utterly worthless for the
purpose Of stemming the tide that is bear
