am standing tonight where the sea-winds
blow;
And the waves come laundering up to the
shore,
And dash and break on the sun -bleached sands,
With low, deep moan, and passionate
roar.
Sad songs they sing, with lips afoam,
Wroaring gale, and that helpless band
Whose pale, cold faces upturned to the sky
Like shadows rest on the wave washed sand.
They chant of those gho shall watch and wait
Till Time has silYered the dark brown hair,
With hearts ever wrung with cruel doubt,
And lips ever moving in silent prayer,
God. if only the white foam-wreaths
Flashed glistning spray upon my breast,
Or the hungry waves had closed over me,
How sweet would | sleep-how softly rest!

Where cold forms rest on its Shiny bed,
And bring some tidings; Tor truth is best,
Though, you sadly murmur, Your love is

For dream, some day a wanderer may come,
Drifting over the seas from foreign land,
And my dead heart shall heat at his sorrow
full call.
And my eyes uncloSe at the touch of his

'Be good enough, NJ. Potter, to read il

with equal self-possession.
Talleyrand opened and glanced at the
paper and dropped it in surprise.
The ole. councillor of Louis XVIII. had
read in it the fatal ordinances of Charles
X.
After a moments pause he turned
smilingly towards Potter and bowling
deeply said:

Sorghum Sugar.

Having numerous inquiries of my
mode OF making sorghum sugar, anC
OF the varieties Ut corn planted, etc.
and it being subject in which every
farmer is interested, | have thought
it would be well to write an article
on the subject for the benefit OF your
many readers. ~ fa...--
That the day isnot far distant when
every farmer will manufacture his
own sugar, l am fully convinced.
Why should it not be SO, when it may
be done as easily as to manufacture
his syrup, and thus save thousands of
dollars expended annually for sugar
In these times OF extreme money
pressure, while all kinds of farm,
products bring such low prices. it
certainly behooves every farmer TO
manufacture all his supplies, and be
self-sustaining and not dependent on
the merchant or any one else.
The first requisite in making sor-
ghum sugaris 10 plant pure seed of
he right kind of varieties, as all va

Africa, by Mr.. Leonard Wray, no.
ted sugar-raiser Mr.. WraS says
"Of all the varieties found in cult
walton at Natal, Africa. the Oomsea-
ma was found to be the best for sugar,
while the Neeazana was the most
valuable for syrup" a-H. .. .i.s
BY planting Oomseana cane there
is no reason why every farmer
in the United States may not make
his own sugar as easily as to make
his syrup. All that is necessary is to |
prepare some sugar coolers, which
any farmer can make, at a cost,
would say, Of not more than one or
Two dollars. Then, why not do so,
and save the large sums of money
given away for sugar? Be self.sus.

pendent on no one. Only recently
some large manufacturers in New
York were arrested because poison
