Townsend on Missionaries

Thousands OF good people are actu.
ally starving in this country, yet the
missionary societies are sending large
sums OF money to the '"benighted
heathen'in, foreign lands. We wish
some one would tell us Of a country
that has ..peen benefited by these
missionary laborers". They nave
been a bane, @ talnt and disaster to
every people upon whom they have
inflicted themselves. A man is now
in San Francisco trying to RAISE mon

Of savages somewhere in Australia.

thoroughly converted and boiled
down, wouldn't make sonl that the

MUSCOVADO SUGAR MAKING
IN ANTIGUA DURING 1898.
by.FRANCIS WATTS F. I..C., F. c. s .
(From the LeeWard Islands Gazette.0

In order to appreciate correctly the posi-
ton of she sugar industry in this colony and
10 suggest Improvements IN the methods en-
ployed,-whether of cuitlvatihg, Of manuring
or of manufacturing, it is highly important
that reliable information as to the existing
state of things should be at the command of
those interested in the industry and its de-
velopment, in order that efforts should be
concentrated on the points where improve
ment is most wanted and likely to prove
most effective.
The following date, have been collected
during the past year and,are put forward as
throwing some light on the conditions of
sugar production and manufacture in Antigua.
The figures in tables LII. are deduced
from one hundred and sixty-two analyses of
Juice from ten estates situated in different
parts Of the island each sample represented
the average of a weeks yield of juice and the
samples represented the whole Of the crops
of the estates in question. 1t is to be noted
that the averages given are "true Averages"
the quantity of juice which each sample re-
presented being taken into account in calcn-
lating the average. 1t is thought unnecessa-
ry to reprint at length the whole Of the
figures dealing with 1872 analyses, but the
chief points Of interest are given.
The gallon herein referred to is the I'm.
perial Gallon Of 2774 cubic inches. It is
found convenient in practioato keep the re.
cords in terms Of sugar &c. per gallon by
multiplying the figure representing lbs. per
gallon Of any substance By 10 we obtain
parts per 100 volumes and if this figure is
divided by the specific gravity Of the LIQUID,
we obtain parts per cent by weight.
From these tables a very fair idea can be
, 1894-04-04

obtained Of the quality Of the juice dealt with
during 1898 the extent of the variations can
be judged from the tables showing maxlma
andminima. 1t will at once be evident hat
the juice was of q high degree of saccharine
richness and was also Of a high degree of
purity The true average If the ten estates
is given in. the last column of Table /. whore
it will be seen that the sucrose averages
1915 lbs. per gallon, OF taking the average
density at 1915 at ST FL. we have 1854 pr.
cent by weight of sucroSe: al average based
on 3,43l $40 gallons of juice.
In addition to the figures dealt with in the
tables one hundred and nine samples of
Juice have been assayed for sucrose only
these samples represent the whole Of the crop
of another group of estates producing
1900, 100 gallons of Juice the average sac
charine strength being lisp lbs per gallon
or 1851 per cent by weight.
By combining the two We have as the
average saccharine strength of 4,63l,67O
gallons 1896 lbs per gallon, or l17,493 per
cent by weight, of sucrose.
As these averages are based on analyses
taken of samples representing the whole OF
the crops of the estates in question and deal
with something like a quarter OF the produce
OF the island it is felt that they may be taken
as giving reliable information as to the con-
dition of affairs in 1898.
The Louisiana Planter, in an editorial on
the Central Factory scheme in Antigua,
!, 1891, criticised the figures of the Com
mlttee appointed to consider the question,
and ventured the opinion that l6 per cent of
sucrose in the juice vas too high a figure to
take even for tropical cane. The above
figures justify the position of this Com
mittee.
1t is interesting to compare these figures
with those obtained in Louisiana and the
Sandwich Islands as dealing with semi
tropical and tropical cane respectively ;

Lord Rosebery, in his turn, may not prove to
to have something Of the political sphinx in
him, we have not as yet the data to deter
mine. He is to address a meeting of the
Liberal Party on Monday next, and from that
day his history as a Minister and political
leader will really begin.
Whether influenced by hatred of Italy or
by a perception that they require the aid of
the Church against revolutionary forces. the
present Government of France has adopted a
new attitude towards clericalism, The
Mayor of st. Denis recently prohibited the
priests from placing a cross upon the grave of
any one buried in the local cemetery, and q
question was asked in the Chamber as to the
legality Of the decree. NJ. Spuller, Minister
of Public Worship, Immediately rose and
repudiated it. The Mayor had q right to
prohibit PROFESSIONS, but no right to forbid
the placing of the cross. The Government
were determined to be tolerant, and 10 put
down fanaticisms and spctarianismS, including
it was understood, those of disbelief. NJ.
Brisson rose, and bitterly denied that the
Republic had been prosecuting, and asked
what the Government meant by the new
spirit" of which NJ. Spuller had talked.
NJ. Spuller replied that he meant the
new conviction which had come over the
Government and himself, and that they We're
determined to abandon a "petty, veXatious,
worrying war with the Church" which had
itself embraced the republic. He himself had
been to blame for his share in it. The
speech drove the Radicals almost frantic
but NJ. Casimir Perier supported his collea-
que, and the Chamber supported him by 210
to $50. This scene, of which we have said
enough elsewhere, marks a new departure in
French politics.
