The Flow OF MAPLE SAP.-Mr. Tim

have known winters when there was no
frost in the ground, and yet excellent
sugar seasons followed; but if there is
no frost in the ground we must have in
stead large body of snow or first class
sugar season will not follow. Even in a
season when the roots are free from frost
there is none, or but very little. passage
OF sap from the roots. This statement [
can demonstrate to the satisfaction of
any man who will be to the trouble of
calling at my sugar place while sap IS
running. l can show by two different
experiments that the main bulk of sap
which we get comes down, and Prof.
Clark, OF Amherst Agricultural College
fame, has demonstrated this same fact
in still another way by different exper-
iment. Some take the view that the sap
is stored up in the tree in the fall pre-
vious, and tapping the tree causes !,
leakage. | shall not here controvert,this
view. Suffice it to say, all experiments
go TO show that the greater part of the
sap is derived from the atmosphere, and
generated in the trunk of the tree. For
many years ha 9 held this view. All
sugar makers know that the tlow of sap
depends on the atmospheric conditions.

Hon. E. J. PHELPS, who b as received
the appointment as minister plenipoten
tiary to the Court of St. James, has been
a resident of Burlington since 1868, hav-
ing been compelled to give up a lucra-
| tive law practice in New York city on
account of failing health and seek the
purer air of Lake Champlain and the
Adirondack region. He is the son of the
late Judge Phelps of the supreme court
of Vermont, and is in his SD year. The
father was United States Senate. for
Is years, and the son, spending some of
his Younger days in Washington, became
intimate with such intellectu giants as
Webster, Clay, Benton and Wright, and
in 1874, when the Wings nominated
Henry Clay for the presidency, Mr..
Phelps cast his vote for him. During
Fillmore's administration the young
lawyer was second compt' oller of the
treasury. and he only resigned on &C
count of i'll health. after having been
urgently requested to stay by President
Pierce. Of late years he has given up
the practice of an attorney, and has de-
voted himself to what in England would
be called a barriSter'S practice. Since
his removal to Vermont he has beer. en-
ployed on nearly all the great cases, such
as the Vermont Central litigation, the
Estey and Burdstte organ cases, the
Bean and Henry illegal arrest case, the
Bennington bonding cases, the Emma
mine case and many important cases.
The mere mention of these facts will
show the high position he occupies as a
jurist. In 1880 he WIS the Democratic
candidate for Governor of the State of
Vermont. He is we'll equipped by edu-
cation, training and natural qualities for
any American representative mission.
He is dignifed in manner, though affable
and courteous, and thoroughly Demo
cratic. He is the president of the Uni
ted States Bar Association. For two
years past he has delivered lectures on
law to the graduating class at Yale col
lege. Senator Edmunds was his legal
preceptor. Mr.. Phelps is a personal
friend of Mr.. Justice Field of the su-
preme court. who speaks in the highest
terms of his learning and ability.

How Gov. OGLEsBY PILED Cord
WOOD wonder if old uncle Dick
piled his own cord-wOod this winter p
said a member yesterday as he looked
toward the Governors mansion, while
struggling through the snow toward
the State House in Springfield, Ill.
did he ever pile his cord wood ?"
asked another.
Yes; in the winter of 1865, when
he was governor. He bought ten
cords of wood of a farmer, who was
to cord the wood in the governors
yard. After three cords had been
piled Oglesby inspected the job and
was evidently dissatisfied. You are
piling the. wood too loosely he said
TO the farmer. 'Ycu must do better
than that or 1 won't pay for it. By
the time you get it piled in that man
ner there won't be more than eight
cords in what you haul in for ten
The farmer replied that he guessed
he could cord wood as well as any
man, and challenged the governor TO
do it any better, or to make less out
of it. And when he had brought the
wood all in, uncle Dick corded il over
again-every stick of it-piled it into
eight cords, and made the farmer
bring in two cords more. / tell you
uncle Dick knows as much about pill |
ing wood as he does about Illinois

BEEcHER's INTERVIEW WITH CLEvE-
LAND.-Rev. Henry Ward Beecher,
being questioned as to his interview
with the President, said he was con-
fident that civil service reform would
be carried out by the new administra-
ton, as far as practicable under party
government. He thought removals
would be confined to the larger presi-
dental offices, justly regarded as po-
Iitical, and would not effect clerks.
MIR. Cleveland's expressions in these
respects were more positive than be
had any reason to anticipate. He
did not think it proper to repeat those
expressions, lest it might tend to CON-
promise the President in the fight
he was obliged to conduct against
thu bread and butter brigade, and
against carping critics in his own
party, as we'll as outside. He could
only say that efficient servants would
not be turned out of non-political pc.
sitions simply because they were Re.
publicans. Mr.. Beecher said he was
not at liberty to speak of the Presi-
dents views on the tariff, except thai
when the proper time comes he be-
lieves he will appear as positive ad.
vocate OF judicious tariff reform.

certainly takin up her share of public
attention in the way of improved indus
trial and mechanical products and valu-
able inventions. The latest discovery,
that of the process of manufacturing
milk sugar or lactOse from whey, made
by Prof. A. IL. Sabin of the university

Importance, in-asmuch as all efforts in
this direction by American chemists have
hitherto proved unsuccessful. The in

ready in receipt of congratulations and
inquiries from scientific men in all parts

ed that while the strength of the Irish

America, it had diminished in Ireland
This result he attributed to emigration.
which he hoped the present depression

lIvered a TRADE against the English

were coming. Mr.. Parnell complained
