T TnE MANUS’ACTIHE j f>F MOLASSES.—
‘‘lt is au ill wind thatblows no; good,’’
is ( an old proverb, which was never
nioro verified than dnringthiswa'r.—
While . the rebellion has closed' up
many avenues of industry andj;wealtn
it. has caused others to bo openqd,evcn
better for the iveallh of thepcoplo. The
most, recent evidence of this fact is
furnished by ia'reference to ihc tiew :
modes lately broughtinto requisition
in this Stale for the manufacture. of
sugar and molasses. Weave inform
ed that a gentleman in Lahealtcr
raised,’ on n quarter Ofi’an .iic'to: ofi
ground, sufficient 'bane to produce 87
gallons of molasses. The 'manufacture
Of’.molasses in i that section is suclr
that a mill lias beep kopt.sojbusy this 4
season that j increased facilities .hre

year one mill made over 1,100 gallons;
and this yCartthe ginount wifi] reach
2,000; which Ishowstthat thte irtatter is
receiving practical attention from om
agriculturists. - The; manufacture of
the molasses costs the ennd-grower
about VI cc fits jper gallon, and thd
article when fit for use is worth sC|'
cents. ‘That! the mill is : to its,
