Maple Trees, and sugar Making.

AS sugar making is coming on, our readers
will be interested in reading what Timothy
Wheeler of Waterbury, VT, writes as to
'The Maple Tree and its Capabilities" He
is said to have made the making of maple
sugar Il matter of close investigation and
study. Mr. Wheeler says Vermont produces
the best maple sugar made in the United
States. He is satisfied that the sap, which
flows from the tree in early Spring, does not
come from the ground, as the ground and
roots are both frozen, which would make it
impossible; neither can it be supplied entire
ly from the body of the tree, having been re-
| tanned there during the winter, as this supply
would soon run out and leave the tree dry.
lie believes that the tree is rcplcnished with
sap from the "vapor of water in the atmo-
sphere" At night the tree gets cooler than
the atmosphere, which causes the vapor to be
absorbed, and the GOODNESS also contracts the
moisture in the tree, which has the effect to
produce "suction in the night" and sin the
daytime, owing to the heat, an outward pres
sure" "'rhis is why sap flows by day and
ceases at night" This expansion by the heat
OF the sun, causes an increased pressure, and
this is why the flow is largest near the sur.
of the tree, as proven by a shallow hole CON-
pared with deeper one, and why sap is.
swceter in proportion as it is drawn near the
surface of the tree; hence, the more shallow
the hole the richer the sap. On this account,
there can be several qualities of sap drawn
from one tree. 1t is not the quantity of sap
the tree supplies, which determines its value
for sugar-making, but the quality; and, as
rule, that which offers the most makes the
poorest sugar The most sap is obtained
within 10 to 12 feet of the ground 1t dimin-
ishes in regular proportion, according to
height. At 30 feet the flow was found to be
one and half quarts, and above scarcely
nothing. The trees will yield from 12 to "a
gallons day. In cold climates, more sugar
can be obtained from maple sap than in warm
latitudes, where molasses exceeds. Poor
soil produces the richest sap, and the rich
soil the poorest One tree with two spouts,
will produce 90 pounds of sugar; and one
tree with three spouts, 80 1-2 pounds of su-
gar. Toward the last of the season the sap
is swecter and more sugar can be made
from the same amount of sap.

One of the most brilliant and thoroughly

that in its adaptation to popular needs, in that
ii covers the entire period of English his

stead of a brief portion as does Macaulay 1t
richly deserves place in the homes of the
masses, and we are glad to note that it is
now placed within their reach, being re-

The Chinese must 90. The Presiden,
will probably sign the bill, which pro
hibits any further immigration from
China for the next twenty years. A
prominent Republican Senator in speak,
of the bill few days ago, said have
been to the state department aud talked
with the officials there, and have no
earthly doubt but that China will abro.
gate the treaty now existing between the
two countries, and that American mer-
chants, both at home and in China,
will be made to feel with telling force
the folly of excluding the Chinese from
the United States for the next twenty
years. II this limit had been ii xed at five
or ten years, and at the end of that time
il was deemed desirable to continue il
longer, i am sure China would have of.
fered no serious opposition, but now we
slap China square in the face and tell her
in substance that we don't care anything
about our treaty stipulation. / predict
that within three years that the pressure
will be so great upon congress by the
mercantile interests of this country, in
consequences of injury inflicted by having
no treaty with China, that the present
will not only be amended but we win be
compelled to give China better terms
than would be necessary now.

General Grant spent last Monday at
the Capitol at Washington, interviewing
prominent Senators, and urging them to
help restore Fitz John Porter to the
regular army. He said that he thought
he had done Fitz John Porter az inius.
tice for many years, and that he was de.
termined to do now what he could to re.
store him to his old place in the army.
General Grant called out a good many
Senators and spoke very earnestly to ali
OF them upon the same subject. There
is no bill now before the Senate for the
restoration of Porter, but it is inferred
one will soon be introduced for his relief.

nsH-When Columbia county farmers can
buy true Ammoniated Super Phosphate,
made chiefly from Slaughter House Meat
and Bone, for S25 per ton at the Railroad
Depots, from dealers,it is folly to pay out
money for the old fashioned High Cost
Fertilizers, which other manufacturers
persist in holding at prices varying from
Thirty to Forty Dollars per ton.
The past season, everywhere, has clear
ly shown,that the low cost AMMoNIATED
SUPER PHospHATEs paid best on Corn.
Grass and Wheat. The day for high cost
Manures has passed. The experience of
good farmers, who look closely at FIRST
CosT and Results, has proved that those
costing S25 PER TON,OR LESS, with
a reasonably good Analysis of free Phos
phoric Acid AND AMMONIA,have paid
them by far the best. There is abundant
evidence of this, right here in Columbia
Co., and from farmers who don't simply
guess at what they are doing.

OF the convent, at place called Lirra in

when Cyrus took the city, the Prophet
Jeremiah escaped from his residence,
about three miles above Jeruselam, with
the ark and accompanied by two young
princesses, to n vessel bound for Tyre.
But the vessel, through adverse storms,
drifted to the Irish coast Here at Lirra
one of the princesscs died and was bur.
led, and the ark was also buried for
safety. According to the Bible,to touch
the ark is death, so it is to be hoped the
Colonel will take the first chance and not
impose it on some poor Irish navy.
