THE VACUUM PAN, AND HINTS
ON THE BOILING OF SYRUP
AND MOLASSES IN THE SAME,
FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF
YELLOW CRYSTALS IN DEM
ERARA.
from the "DemerarG Argosy.")

In your issue of the 30th October
| gave your readers an article emit
tied Hints on the Tempering of
Cane Juice in Demerara, for the man
ufacture Of Yellow Crystals" and
with your kind permission I now
propose to put before you who are
interested in sugar making, as a con-
tinuatlon of my first paper, some
hints and information on the boiling
of syrup and molasses in the vacuum
pan, which will | hope give young
overseers a better idea than many of
them have, and which will enable
them, an may | say managers also,
to keep a better check on pan boilers,
and watch their movements more
closely than is usually found to be
the case. One word to the tyre be-
fore going further. Get inside the
vacuum pan of the estate to which
you belong and examine it thorough
ly, examine the coils, learn the posi-
ton of the tail pieces, the dip pipe
from the charging cock, and impress
well upon your memory all the de-
tails of its interior construction.
The day has come when little
muscovado sugar is made in this
colony, and, although a few estates
do still make it, I believe the time
cannot be far distant when such es-
tates will be obliged to abandon it's
manufacture and go in for a
pan plant and machinery. AS is
we'll known muscovado is much east
er to make than vacuum pan sugar.
Such great and unceasing care is not
required, and during the whole pro-
cess OF common-process sugar manu-

1t would be a miserable life,-the
life of a prisoner, aggravated by the
sense that the doors were always
open, and that in refusing to pass
through them there was something
alike of cowardice and of neglect Of
duty. Very few Sovereigns would
endure precautions which, even in
the extreme circumstances surround
ing the Emperor of Russia, became so
iniolerable to him, that at last he
ordered his officers to take any pre-
cautions they thought necessary, but
to keep them carefully out of his sight
and hearing. To be a King, and see
and hear nothing of all which the
humblest may see and hear, never to
witness a theatrical performance or to
walk in a wood, never to set foot in
a street or go out for a brisk ride
it is rot a position which a man of
ordinary nerve could induce himself
to bear, and the effort to bear it would
end some day in an abrupt abandon
ment of all precautions whatsoever.
A man can die but once; and a King,
threatened as the Emperor Alexander
was, would probably be just as safe
if he took no extraordinary precau-
tons and so spurred his assassins to
new and more elaborate methods of
attack. A King whose death was
desired, and who took no precautions,
would generally be fired at; and
nothing fails so often as the pistol
in an assassin's hand. Quiet resigna-
ton, descending to fataIism or rising
to perfect trust in Heaven, would
seem, in our day, to be the only effec-
tive armour for Kings. And it is
very difficult to be continuously either
fatalistic or resigned, to be serenelY
brave all through a tedious ceremo-
NAL, at dinner, and when you have a
twingIng toothache.

u1dCLuT6u, anu, IL mdluidCtuTcu, can
be stolen. Granted a few resolute
conspirators, with one man of educa-
ton among them, and some little
command of money, and no conceiv-
able laws, or rules of police, or detec-
tive arrangements, can prevent their
making, and carrying, and throwing
bombs, which are as dangerous to the
victims as hostile batteries only fifty
yards off. Science has armed the
assassin; and Governments, with all
their endless in men and
material, are almost as powerless as
if their opponent could WELD the
lightning or direct the course of
earthquakes.
There is one form of physical pre-
caution, and but one, which might
still be successful. We suppose a
Sovereign might be made tolerably
safe for a long term Of years, if he
would regard his palace as a castle,
see no one whom he did not know,
and submit to be defended by the
devices of the Middle Ages,-moats,
and bridges, and high walls. One
does not exactly see what a Nihilist
could do to the Governor, say, of
Hurst Castle, while he remained with
in the walls, and while the soldiery
and attendants did not approve the
plot. He could not move heavy
guns without observation, or elude
the sentries, OF drop dynamite from a
balloon, and we doubt if poison is SO
formidable a weapon as it appears to
be. 1t was feared in the Winter
Palace; but part, at least, Of the plot
against the Gar was to keep up per-
petual terror. Poison would be sure
to kill some faster or some guest, and
not the Sovereign, even if it could be
introduced into the food. The mobiles
and kings of ASIA, who either are
threatened in this way, or who think
they are, take very simple precau-
tons, and are very seldom carried off
in that way, unless,-a very rare
occurrence-their foes include the
most trusted women Of the house
hold. A King, living like a besieged
Baron of the olden time, shut up in
his castle, with guards in harness all
round him, and a faster as one of
his principal officers, might, we sup
pose, keep on living for some years,
and do most of his work, and even
possibly be more respected by his
subjects, on account of his inaccessi-
bility and seclusion. Of the people
of the British Empire who venerate
Queen Victoria, not one in a thousand
ever sets eyes upon her person, or
ever expects TO see her face to face.
President Lincoln had never been
out of Washington when he was
elected a second time; and Prince
Bismarck governs, though he scarce
ly ever leaves his house, except to
visit the Chambers. The secluded
are not always the ignorant, aud a
King could give orders from his Cabi-
net if he were always there, as easily
as at present, when he is only there
in order to transact business. The
Pope for some years past has contriv-
ed to govern the Catholic world with
out ever quitting Il very limited area
in Rome, and a pope who became a

IN mental cultivation, butalet US strive
to open It fully and freely to all classes
and sexes The rich man, it is true,
can educate his sons and daughters
with his own resources at some high
seminary Of learning. If be wishes to
do this, all right and well enough; but
then, while he can afford this, he
should not be so selfish and unchari-
table as to complain at paying in the
public school fund a few dollars to
educate poor mems SONS and daugh-
tiers, or the orphan that hbors and
tolls upon his lands, or otherwise
works to build him up. 1t is true,
our public school system is imperfect,
from lack of proper energy. Our
fund is too small. This is the great
est mistake of all Let our court
levy tax sufficient to keep a fund
that will carry on at every school
house a good and permanent school,
say ten months a year, and then the
directors should seek the services of
good and reliable teachers, and pay
them well. 1 frequently hear people
rating this great and important work
with common farm labor, such as the
colored people perform. This is in
csnsiderate. The public teacher
seldom gets enough to support a man
in the most common living. He
should be enabled to get good board,
and buy good clothes and his books,
and have respectable sum over.
Friends, you who are thinking men,
ponder this, and assist in getting good
schools established throughout all sec
tions, that the social, domestic and in
dustrial circles of our country may be
built up. DORoTHEA.

X Roads is a thriving little village
which, perhaps, many of your readers
never heard of. There is much of an
air of enterprise about it, notwith-
standing its short existence, and We
know not how soon it may become g..
point of considerable note, for it has
thrown around it some most substan-
tial material, and We are apprised of
the fact, Judging from history, that
wherever brain, with its cement of
muscle, is theoretically put into opera
ton there will Enthusiastically be a
building up of all surroundings and a
strengthening OF every element con-
nccted Herewith.
X Roads has q surrounding coun-
try which but fsw places can excel; its
people are these of taste and social re-
finement, people imbued with every
principle of industry, and people
who cherish the highest regard for
moral and religious influence.
The educational interests of this
community haveswelled to high pitch
lately, and ere long will rank among
the first sections of our country. At
Walnut Grove school house, which is
= large and commodious building,
there is splendid school in full blast,
conducted upon academic methods Of
instructing. Prof. G. G. Med" mel is
principal of the school. lie Is a fine
educator In the vicinity of our small
town at Forest Hill school house, we
have a good public school under the
charge of Willie McDSniel-''Yo ung
Professor" There is an effort being
made tn charter Mt. Mor1ah school
house, which is about one mile west of
Z Roads. No school there at present.
The people throughout this section
wish an increase on the school tax in
order to have permanent schools.
We congratulate Prof. Hudson
upon his election as county superin-
tendent of public schools.
Besides the high degree of our 30
ciety and literary institutions, we have
a prosperous country. Our lands are
of the finest quality, producing equal
to any, and aside from the unusual
fertility of the soil, our country is |
favored with a most excellent forest.
The firm Of Breeder & Ragon, x
Roads, state that business is solid and
not expected to decline. They are
pushing men in mercantile work.
The popular and successful physi- |
clan OF x Roads, who has recently
attached himself to a beautiful belle
of sixteen" has felt the inspiration of
the change and seems fred with
greater zeal in his profession. He is
riding continually. Success to him.
Long may this lovely country flourish,
Where hOws the brook and grows the p4as,
Where the radiant beams OF learning uOuTish
And strengthen its cenSsrs for coming time.

EDITOR BULLETIN: While in our
county superintendent office of pub
lie instruction a few days since, I met
with man who was bitterly opposed
to the public school system, and so OBJ
stinate was he in his opposition to the
same that he proposed to donate $50
toward defraying the expenses of
legislation to have the public school
law abolished and wiped out Of exist
ence forever. While listening to his
arguments against the system of free
instruction 1 felt very much impressed
with the folly and erroneousness of
his views. l thought that he, like
many others of his sentiments, was
using his influence against one of the
nOblest and grandest institutions of the
age. Is it possible that some wise
SOlOmOns at this period can be SO
contracted in their views as to give
utterance against that admirable in
stitution of our fathers, which places
within the grasp of all, rich and poor,
the benefits of intellectual culture and
the means of developing the mental
powers OF the country everywhere. 1t
is beyond dispute that a broad and
g, neral diffusion of knowledge pr, :
notes the interests of the country and
gives that life blood which sustains
and nOurishes religious and civil lib
erty in its widest sense. ALI the
glory and pride of our mighty nation
would reel and fall if we should but
for a quarter of century deprive its
pc ople of that element which enlight-
ems and elevates the standard of their
minds, enabling them with the light of
knowledge to strengthen and cement
together more firmly the national and
local interests of proud America. Dis
robe US of our public school system,
and we are deprived of that vitality
which gives vigor and life to all in
dustrial enterprises, while it saps
prosperity in its bud. Without cult
waited minds where would our COM
mercial world drift? Like a vessel
with stone statue at the helm tc
