Sanford Corn for Sugar.

Those who have had any experience in
growing the Sanford corn for fodder are
aware that it greatly surpasses other varie-
ties in the sweetness of the stalk. This it
is which makes the cows like it so well and
eat it up so clean. Mr.. j. X. Tobey of
Calais says that an experiment was tried
last summer in his neighborhood, in which
the juice extracted by merely wringing or
twisting few stalks of this corn with the
hands was boiled down, and made coffee
cup full of thick syrup as white as honey
If sugar making from cornstalks should be
proved, by next summers experiments
(Which we think are going to be very exten
sive and generaD to be a practical success
there will be great demand for the seed Of
this variety of corn in the spring of 1881
We therefore advise our readers who live
along the shore of Lake Champlain and OF
the islands to put in large crops OF it, II
generally ripens well there, and there viii
be loud calls for it from all parts of The
state. We believe it will beat the amber
cane out Of sight for sugar.

which he worked five years. It consists Of
two figures Columbus holding the globe in
his hand triumphant, while beside him won
dering, almost terror-stricken, is a female
figure symbolizing the Indian race. The
group cost $4,000.
On the north side of the steps is another
marble group by the artist Horatio Green
ongh, called " Civilization" Itrepresents the
American pioneer in conflict with the In
dian the fight is desperate, the wife of the
frontier settler, with her babe, and faithful
dog, are the adjuncts. Greenough was at
work eight years on this group, which cost
$4,000. Occupying the tympanum of the
portico, is group Of allegorical figures Of
colossal size, said to be the design of John
Quincy Adams, executed by Signor Persico.
The central figure is the Genius of America,
crowned with star. holding a shield. The
shield rests on an altar on which within an
oaken wreath is inscribed, "July 4th, 1776."
At her feet. sits an eagle. Behind her is
spear. Hope on her left rests on an anchor.
America directs the attention of Hope TO
Justice, who has in her right band the con-
stitution Of the United States. This com.
position is wrought in sandstone, and cost
$4,000. Within inches on either side of the
bronze door are statues, also the work of
Signor Persico. The one on the north side
is War. The figure grasps in his right hand
a sword, in the other a shield. His costume
is Roman. Peace is female figure of ma
jestic beauty, with gentle winning smile,
and in simple flowing robes. She holds a
fruit-bearing olive branch in her hand. The
cost of these two figures was $4,000 each.
Rogers bronze door is the main central
door OF the capitol, and on IL is pictured
history Of the life of Columbus and the dis
covery Of America. The door weighs twenty
thousand pounds, is seventeen feet high and
nine feet wide; it is folding, and stands
sunk inside of bronze casing. On this
casing are four figures, at the top and bot
tom, representing Asia, Africa, Enrope and
America. The door has eight panels. In
each panel is a picture in diio.reiiero. 1t
was designed by Randolph Rogers, an
American, and modelled by him in Rome in
1858. Mr. Rogers receivad $4,000 for his
models. 1t was cast by F. Won Muller at
Munich in 1861. He was paid for casting
$4,000 in gold. The total expense exceeds
100000 in currency. have not attempted
a minute description of this door. 1t must
be seen to be appreciated.

An old lady Rat in her old armchair,
with wrnkled visage and dlshcveed hair,
And hunger-worn features;
For days and for weeks her only fare,
As abe sat there in her old armchair,
Had been potatoes.
But novohey were gone; Of bad or good
Not one was left for the old ady's food,
or those potatoes;
And she sighed, and said, " what shall do?
Where shall send, and to whom shall go
For more potatoes7"
And she thought of the deacon over the way,
The deacon 40 ready to worship and pray,
Whose cellar was full OF potatoes.
And she said 81 will send for the deacon to Gomez
He'll not mind much to give me some

And the deacon came over as fast as he could,
Thinking to do the old lady some good
But never. for once, Of potatoes
He asked her at once what was her chief want.
And she. poor soul. expecting grant,
Immediately answered. " Potatoes"
Bu, the deacon. religion didn't lie that way;
He was more accustomed to preach and to pray
Than to give OF his boarded potatoes.
SO, not hearing, Of course, what the old lady said,
He rose to pray, with uncovered head,
But she only thought Of potatoes.

Forest and flower in liza hnsk concealed
And the golden wealth Of the harvest neid.

That the harvest never will grow

We can see how near us our helpers are,
Who carry the sickle and wear the star.

Not Alone for the Giants.

Our friend u. f. Jameson once remarked,
with sad sarcasm, that the only way a
young man could obtain an industrial edu-
cation in Vermont was to commit crime
referring to the reform school, And indeed
the idea of preventive legislation has en-
tered very little, if at all, into the considera
ton of those who have made our laws.
That thousand dollars spent wisely in
training the young may save hundred thou
sand in the loss and mischief wrought by
those who did not get it, is a stretch of wis
dom beyond our legislative Solomons aud
Solons.
We have been labored with personally,
and through the post-office, by those who
think we are disturbing the pleasant rela-
tions of society by our writings against the
credit system, unequal taxation, corporate
monopolies, spectators and unjust legisla-
ton. One of the most intelligent of our
critics particularly insists that nothing can
be seriously wrong in our laws and institu-
tions where there are so many all around us
who have raised themselves from poverty to
wealth by their own unaided efforts This
will seem to be powerful and even an un-
answerable argument to many. But il fails
by proving too much. For the same fact of
the rise of friendless men to wealth and
high position from humble beginnings is to
be seen in every country under the sun, and
perhaps quite as often under the most I'M
just and oppressive governments as among
us. Some of the wealthiest families of Rus
STA were founded by serfs. Mehemet Ali,
the great founder of the Egyptian Khedi-
vate, was a common soldier. The utterly
tyrannical government of Turkey, indeed,
is as famous for the rise of humble subjects
to high positions as it is infamous for the
cruel injustice which Expresses and para,
lyzes the industries of its people. Strong
men will rise to the top in every community,
no matter what were their beginnings. And
the education of poverty is powerful slim
ulant, not only to ambition, but to those quail
ties of self.restraint, tact and economy by
the exercise of which men are most likely
to rise to wealth and power.
That which should characterize institu
tions truly free is not the rise of exception
ally strong men to high positions. Indeed
that very thing is danger to liberty, and is
its greatest danger to-day in our own coan-
try. 1t is our Vanderblts and Jay Goulds,
our Camerons and Conklings, who most
threaten and endanger the liberties of the
people of this republic. 1t is the rich
money-lenders of Vermont who are eating
out the substance and multiplying the indus.

Another Proof that Bright's
Disease, in its Worst
Form, is Cur bile.

ROCHESTER,, n Y, November 81, 1879
Messrs. II. IT. Warner C Co., Rochester, ~ y:
GESTs-From my own sense Of duty, and
upon the advice Of friends have concluded to
offer you testimonial, proclamng to the world
that there is an absolute cure for Brights
Disease in its worst form. My daughter Carrie
has been afflicted with this terrible disease since
she was FIVE years. OF age; she is now seven
teen, and during these eleven years her life has
been burden She has been treated by the
best physicians in Buffalo, Syracuse, Utica, Ith-
AGA, Owego Hornelsville, Rochester and other
places, and a fortune has been paid out in the
vain endeavor to obtain cure, or even relief.
but all have pronounced her incurabe; have
said that her kidneys were nearly destroyed,
that there was no help for her. and she must
abandon all hope Of ever being any better.
We finally heard OF your SAFE KIDNEY AND
LIVER CURE and suggested to different physi-
clans that we make trial Of it; but they
secuted the idea, pronounced it humbug and
said 1t would be perfect folly.
We finally came to Rochester and tried sew
eral physicians here but they, like the others.
were unable to do anything for her. We also

CALIFORNIA dairymen have been very
successful in cultivating alfalfa for stock,

tried it.
