Sorghum.

Mr.. Editor:-While the sugar making is
being discussed will give you our expe-
rience with the amber cane. We planted
a few seeds of the above cane last spring,
in the garden. This fall my brother made
small mill to crush the stalks. l think
there could not have been over two hundred
and fifty stalks, but did not count them.
Neither do know howmuch juice was OBJ
tanned from these stalks, but after it was
boiled down there was over gallon of very
thick syrup. II was very clear and light
colored, equal to any maple syrup | have
ever seen. We shall plant a considerable
quantity of it next spring, and think some
of our neighbors will also. We tried few
corn stalks, but did not get as good results
they did not make as much good syrup.
1t is proven beyond all d)ubt in my mind
that the farmers in Vermont can raise their
own sweetening at much less cost than
by depending upon maple trees to say moth :
ing about having to work in the slush with
wet feet, etc. 1t can be made with the
same apparatus that is used for making
maple sugar, and with much less labor.

We must remark to Young Farmer that
we do not believe that sorghum, beets or
any other substitute will ever drive out the
manufacture of our delicious maple sugar,
the favor of which will make it an article
of luxury for all time. But if
we can from corn, sorghum or beets pro-
duce at home what we now import we shall
have taken a very important step forward
in national prosperity.

THE ROLLING MILLS.

Tine preparations for erecting the rolling
mills are now in active progress The site
for the building, which is Immediately by the
side of the overland track, and south of the
copper-shop, has been cleared and staked off
for the foundation. A pile-driver, with 50
feet drop, has been erected, and donkey
engine was yesterday placed in position for
operating the hammer, and the work of
driving piles will be commenced today. The
piles are on the ground, ranging in diameter
from 10 to 20 inches, and are to be driven
into the earth distance of about 20
feet. These are to be driven down in that
manner close, side by side, forming solid
pile work underneath the engine and ma
chinery. as the ground where the mills are to
be placed is made land When this work is
completed the foundation for the building will
be laid, and be of brick The building will be
so by $50 feet, with lean-to addition for
boiler-house, ETC., 20 feet wide and running
the entire length. This will make the build
ing 100 by $50 feet. The posts or sides of the
building will be so feet in hight, and the
bridge 50 feet from the ground. The roof
will be of corrugated iron, similar to the de-
pot, aud have an area of over %, 900 square
feet.
The engine being constructed at the shops
for these works will be of S0Ohorse power.
1t will be a vertical engine, with cylinders
80 inches in diameter and 36-inch stroke. 1t
is expected there will be six furnaces, with
boiler for each, to run the engine and the i'm
mense steam hammer, which will weigh about
10000 pounds. The anvil-block, or bed upon
which it is to play, viii weigh about % tons.
A crane for use at the hammer will be of suf.
feient strength to carry from % to 80 tons.
1t is not yet determined whether this will be
operated by hydraulic power or other method
The purpose of the rolling mills is to event
ually manufacture everything in the line of
iron and steel used by the railroad company,
which will largely increase the number of its
employees and Importance of its works in this
city. .ss

A MONGoLIAN EXPERT.

At prominent place on j street, within
spyglass distance of Fourth street, works a
gentleman having great love for the beauti-
full, as symbolized by flowers. He has for
several years past been cultivating his taste,
botanicallY speaking, By going to great ex-
pense in ereticng greenhouse, and placing,
therein the paraphernalia necessary to care
for and propagate rare botanical specimens.
His specially was Towering Dubious plants.
He purchased all the books treating on that
class of flowers. and entirely committed them
to memory. Very naturally he thought
he was a veritahle Wick, and that
there was no flower he could not
call by its technical name on sight. Among
his acquaintances was an Oriental, known by
theeuphonious name of Tom All Did Yon. This
individual exhibited great interest in the
floral collection of his Z" Mellican flend, !" and
soon the florist discovered that his Oriental
friend was an excellen5 botanist, at least was
skilled regarding dubious plants, as many of
the Chinese are, and he frequently consulted
him as to new specimens. A few days ago
the amateur florist was presented $50 he says,
but there is only his statement as to that
with beautiful specimen of the Sicily lily.
At any rate, by some means, fair or foul,
he procured one. He was told it was flower
even more rare than the rarest he possessed.
He was exceedingly elated and ignorant of
the fact that the lily really resembles the
flower of the Hubbard squash, and with as
happy smile upon his countenance as mortal
could possibly summon up he hurried to the
saloon where his Oriental sympathizer was
employed and rushed excitedly in, exclaim-
ing, Eureka T" which sgnifed to the Chi
naman that he had found it. This, by the
way, contradicts the subsequent statement
that it had been presented to him. The
Chinaman, who had never seen such speci-
men before, inspected it a moment, and with
a significant curl of the lip remarked, "Oh
you no sabe flowers. Him allie same old
squash" The Dubious plant man says that this
criticism of his specimen has knocked all the
poetry out of his composition, and his entire
stock is for sale without reserve.

THE CoRwIN's ARCTIC CRUISE. The
following is from the San Francisco Banetn
of July Doth:
The revenue cutter Thomas Corwin ar.
rived at Ounalaaka ON the Sd of June, after
a rough passage of twelve days from this
port. !. 1t will be remembered that the Cor
win was sent from this harbor in the latter
end of May, for the purpose of relieving
the two whaling barks-Mount Wollaston
and the Vigilant-which were caught by
the ice last fall and compelled to winter in
the Arctic, and give relief, if necessary,
also to the exploring steam yacht Jeanette.
The following is an extract of letter from
one Of the Corwin's officers, dated Ouna-
laska, June It'll 1--WE have 100 tons of
coal on board now, and will sail to-mor-
row morning for the islands and the north.
We hope to be at the straits by the 10Th
instant, and will push through into the
Arctic on the first opening OF the ice. We
are all prepared for winter in the Arctic,
having enough stores on board to last all
hands fourteen months. At st. Michaels
we will procure two dog trains and add a
quantity of salt fish to our provisions.
The indications are favorable for an early
opening of the ice. The past winter was
mild and the spring stormy High winds
are said to break the ice and open the
Arctic earlier than clear, fine weather,
which is usually accompanied by very
low temperature

cisco; and whereas, said Louis Kapan is Demo-
