Evidently the Princess Victoria is fol-
lowing in the footsteps OF her mother as
regards the domestic training OF her
children. One day the imperial party
started tor drive up the Salsburs and,
when quite near the summit. their car
riage broke down. What was to be done?
The distance was too great to allow OF
walking, and to send one of the servants
on one OF the carria ge-horses down to
Hamburg for another carriage would
insure long and, for the children.
perhaps injurious delay. However, the
Prince was on the point OF dispatching
his messenger, when a peasant passed.

>tantly realizing the situation and recog-
nizing the imperial party, he sprang
from his seat and implored them to make
him the proudest and happiest farmer in
all Germany by getting into his wagon
aud permitting HIM to drive them home.
The royal pair laughed and consented.
The whole party were accommodated
| with seats amid the fragrant hay, and
in this guise the future Emperor and
Empress OF Germany. with their "au'
gust ott>pring," as the papers call the
little princes and princesses, came rid

OUR SUGAR SUPPLY.
From the New York Sun.l

rom the Ne" sun
A great scarcity of raw sugar in this
country. unless we draw supplies from
unusual sources. seems among the pos
sibiities nt the near future.
Oar total consumption of raw sugar
tor the wear ending December 81. 1877,
was close upon fifteen hundred millions
OF pounds On the lst OF January last the
total stock OF raw sugar i'll the country
was in tons, 5O.6tS; our receipts from
all points. from January to October l..
1873. 90 500: total. 591 ,63S.
OF this quantity there had been with
drawn tor consumption previous to Oc-
roI,er /. ,J23 GIL tons; with raw sugar
exported. , .OoU; leaving stock on hand
on October l, 7l,6i7.
during the month of September last
the receipts were AZ, 14l tons. and the
Withdrawals for consumption o. l24.
II, therefore, the demand for raw su-
car continues during the remaining
three months of the year on a normal
scale. receipts to the extent OF at least
100 900 tons will be required to sup
ply it.
Our receipts of raw sugar are almost
entirely OF cane sugars, and OF these
|
| and other West India Islands.
The total stock of sugars remaining
! in store in Havana aud Matanzas. as by
last advices, was less than $4,000 tons.
and OF this quantity fully $4,000 tons
were of white sugars, which an import
duty OF five cents per pound absolutely
excludes from our markets. All the
minor ports of the island Q! Cuba, as
well As the islands of Porto Rico. jana
lea, Martinique. Demerara. and other
minor sources OF our supply, have al
ready shipped their total produce.
No sugar can reach US, to any appre-
ciable extent, until after the end of the
year. Therefore, unless our normal de-
mand of say sixty-thousand tons pei
month is supplied by heavy importationl
OF beet sugars from Europe. great
scarcity OF the raw material before the
close Of the year appears inevitable.
