Although tho manufacture of beet sugar was first estnbllslii'tl in Francf, yet tlio fact that tho bpet yielded Migur wns first ascertained by Mtirffrnlr, n Prussian, In 1717. Hut no practical Rood was accomplished by him. Twen-ty-flvo years afterward aniitlier cliemist or Herlin, Arcliard, renewed tbTS Inves tigation of tlio subject, under tho en courajcment of Frederick tlio Great, but It was not until 1705 that ho published anything in referenco to it. In theory lie maintained tlio utility of tlitrinnmi fncture, not only for tho sugar that tlio )n?et would yield, but because of tho profitable use that might bo niado of tho leaves and pulp after tho pressure from it of tho Juice, and the manufacture into alcohol or vinegar of tho residues left of tho sugar manufacture. In 170'.) ho made tlio llrst sugar from a farm of sixty acres in licet cultivation. A commission reported favorably, and in tlio same year tho subject was llrst in vestigated In France, and tho Society of Agriculture of the Seine awarded a gold medal to Archant. Tim wars of the first Napoleon leading to blockade of the ports oflhe Continent, sugar, in France, rose to ono dollar nnd twenty cents per pound. This forced Napoleon to a con sidcration of tlio best ways of obtaining a homo-mado supply, and ho appointed a commission to examine and report on the matter. In 1S10 they mado their re port In favor of beet sugar. In 1812 Hcnjnmin Helossert succeeded in produc ing refined crystallized white beet sugar, for which tho Emperor conferred upon hinj tlio Cross. Soon afterward ono and h half per cent, of sugar on the weight of tho beet worked was obtained, at a cost of thirty and a half cents per pound. In 1813 thirty-five hundred tons of two thousand two hundred and forty pounds were mado in three hundred and thirty four nianufaclories. The peace or 181 1 raised tlio blockade Xrom tlio ports, and the price of sugar rom ono dollar nnd twenty cents per pound fell to fourteen cents, causing the stoppage of all the manufactories that bad been erected for tho production of beet sugar. Franco at that time had its caue-pro-tlucing colonies Martinique, Guada loupe, Guyane, and Uonlon, and in 1814 Loui.s XVIII., King of France, laid a duty of eighty dollars per ton on French colonial sugar, nnd of two hundred dol lars per ton on all foreign sugar. In 1825 tlio manufacture of beet sugar began to revive, and in 1823 there were fifty- eight manufactories, yielding two thous and six hundred nnd eighty-llvo tons of sugar. At that time, inordertocjieourago tlio refining' of sugar in France, foreign and colonial cano sugar was admitted in its brown state only, and :i premium upon exportation of tlio refined sugar was al lowed tho refiners. These opposed the manufacture of refined sugar from the licet, and combining with tho shipping intercut in the foreign and colonial sugar trade, demanded an internal tax upon beet sugar. This demand was defeated, especially through tho political events of 18:30, and tho production of beet sugar Increased. In 1831 it was twenty thous and tons; in 183G forty thousand tons, mado in four hundred and thirty-six manufactories. Hut tlio opponents to this domestfu production continued tiio conflict, nnd nt hut succeeded in having an excise tax laid upon it of thirty-two dollars and eighty-eight cents per ton in 1833. Tho unfavorable influence of this tax caused n decreaso of production, so that in 1810 but twenty-two thousand tons were made, one hundred and sixty six factories were closed, nnd tho manu facture of sugar ceased in seventeen de partments. In 1810 further legislation was bad, resulting in fixing a duty on colonial cano sugar of ninety dollars per ton, and an excise tax on licet sugar of flfty dollars per ton; u discrimination of forty dollars per ton In favor of tiio latter. In 1812 tho quantity of beet su gar rose to thirty-three thousand tons; but tho colonial opposition was renewed, and tlio Govern nient proposed to tho Chambers tho entire suppression of tlio beet sugar trado. It rejected this ex traordinary proposition, and tho contro versy was settled in 1813 by nil equal duty and tax of ninety dollars per ton upon colonial and beet sugar? In tlmt year themanufacturo of beet sugar wis twenty-eight thousand tons ; the import of colonial sugar eighty three thousand tons. In 1817 tho first advanced to fifty thousand ton, tho lat ter to eighty-eight thousand. In 1H50 tlio beet sugar production reached sixty two thousand tons, and tho colonial ettno sugar had decreased to flfty-ono thous and tons. In 1852 another change un fa vorablo to beet sugar was made by tho tariff regulations, and this was followed by two seiwiis unfavorable for growing tho beet j but In 1853 a (license of tho vino greatly lessened grapo alcohol, which doubled In price, when tho man ufacturer: of beet sugar turned their at tention to the production of alcohol from tho beet. The production of beet spirit in 1852 was three hundred and fifty-two thousand gallons; in 1857 it was nine million two hundred and forty thou-and gallons, uud that from the vine showed almost an equal ileereu.o. Hut In this last year tho vino recovered from tho disease, when the manufacture of beet eugur was resumed to Its full extent. In 1858 Its manufacture was one huuclred and twenty-four thousand tons, and tho importation of colonial cano sugar was ouo hundred and sixteen thousand tons. In 1800 tho internal tax was again changed to sixty dollars per ton on beet sugar; a duty of lUty-two dollars and clghty-elglit cents was laid on colonial sugar, and of sixty-six dollars and twelve cents on foreign sugar. Tlio per cent, of sugar now obtained by improved processes is from live to six; tho Germans get from seven to eight. Hut in Prussia greater care is observed in tho selection of tho heels used. The crop Is successively immersed In three different tanks of salt water of tho densities of four, five, and six de grees Heatiine ; tho rools floating in tlio first (mil: are rejected; those which float in tho second tank form tlio third quali ty or beet; those which float in the third tank constitute tlio second quality of beet, and those which sink in it make tho first class of beet. Tlio cost of the production of licet sugar has been re duced to about four cents per pound; tho tax Is about three cents, other charges about ono and a half cent, making the soiling price from nlno to eleven cents per pound. Monthly Iteporl Department of Ayriculture. FOR YOUTHFUL READERS. The Lucky Penny. Two young herdsmen, Peternnd Paul, tended jointly all the sheep belonging to tho town. One day as they were sit' ting together upon a hill, from which they had a view of tho pasture-lands around, a dealer passed with a drove of fat oxen. They know tho man, and Peter said : "That man may bo called happy who is us rich as ho is." "Certainly," answered Paul; "it would not be amiss to have some of his money in one's old age." "For one's old ago!" cried Peter; " no, never mind that tlmo; if I am to have money let It bo while I am young, that I can enjoy it, and live n merry and pleasant life." "While they were thus talking fogeth er there camo a little man up the hill Willi a red cap on Ills Iicad. Going up to Peter ho presented him with a little purse, and said : " This purse I will give to thee ; fbero is only one silver penny in it, but every time thou art in need of money thou hast only to thrust thy finger into tho purse, and thou niavst take out as much as thou pleaso-t, either silver or gold; but beware thou never give the Iittlo penny away." Hereupon lie showed Peter tho silver penny, and gave linn tlio purse. " Hut to thee.'t said he to Paul, " I will give good advice. Learn sonic useful handiwork that will best promote thy fortune." Tlio llltlo man then left them, nnd dis appeared in tlio mount. Soon after this event Paul bound himself to a smith ; but Peter began to trade. lie bought all kinds of goods, went from city to city, always made a good business, and took so much money that lie was known all over Jutland under the name of Rich Peter tlio Huckster. Ho then thought it was not worth while to travel longerabout tlieeountry, for ho had wealth enough, and could, moreover, take daily from his purse as niuchashodesired. Ho therefore bought a flnoinanor, called limiting, surrounded by woods; and near the mansion flowed a river, in which thero were excellent eels. Hero Peter established an eel fishery, tho like of which bad never be fore been seen, and everything in ills household was on tlio most costly scale Hero ho lived in splendor and luxury, and married a young maiden of rank Every day thero were guests at the mansion, and Rich Peter tlio Huckster had no other thought than to enjoy him self. His wife, however, thought it ini possible that lie had money enough to continue such a life, and talked to him on tho subject. Hut ho only laughed, and said sho might bo quitoeasy on that score, for thero was no end to his riches. Hut his wife secretly hoarded tho gold and silver which he gave her to buy fine clothes, and this money sho was desirous to conceal in some safo place. Now down near tho eel-pond she had noticed a large piece of timber, that had in it a hole, into which a wedge had been driven, but which no ono could see save those who knew It was there. Here, thought she, must bon secure hid-Ing-placo; so stealing one day down to tho spot, sho drew the wedgo out, and put In all her money ; then replaced tho wedge, so that no one could perceive it had Iieou touched. This money sho thought sfio would have as a reserve, in ease her husband ever camo to want it. Hut it happened soino tlmo after tills that tho lady became ill and died, with out telling any ono of her treasure. She died childless, and after her death Rich Peter became more dissipated than ever At his houe thero wnsal ways n swarm of boon companions, who hunted with htm, drank nnd gambled when thev re turned home, from the evening till tho dawn of day, and led such a dissolute iifo that no respectable, man would bo seen there, much less nny rcspectablo woman. Once, when Peter wa sitting with ills gambling comrades, and they had nil drank top much, ho was going to pay ono nf them what ho had lost in play, but ho was so bewildered with drinking that jio knew muMvhat'ho was doing Instead, therefore, of counting his mo ney piece by piece, as bo took.it out of his purse, ho shook tho whole contents nut upon tho fable, nnd threw tho purso into n corner of tho room. "Tho next morning, when ho became sober again, ho picked up the purse; but tho lucky penny was gone, and It was now only nuo nil other purses, it would give no moro money out than what had been put into it. "Never mind," thought ho, "I am rich enough as It Is." Hut nil tho rich woods and fisheries wero insufficient to pay for tho extra va gant life ho led. Nothing was managed with order, thercforoc vt rythlng fell into decay ; for ho was never Inclined to look after things himself. Thus mutters went on, so that from year to year his property decreased, till lie was obliged to sell house and land, and at last to take a wallet on his back and beg from door to door; ho was, at thesiimo time, sick and miserable; his spirit was broken, and his appearance. was so wretched that none of his former companions would have known him again. Thu other herd-buy, Paul, hnd hi tho meantime became an nblo smith; ho worked from morning to night, yet lie never could beconio rich. He married a young girl us poor as himself, and they had many children. It required much bread to feed so many mouths, but yet they never knew want, although what ono day brought in was consumed the next. In tin; meantime the children grow up, behaved well, ami wero healthy and Industrious; and Paul, tho smith, was much pleased every tlmo he looked nt them. His smithy lny near the same river which ran past Peter the Huckster's mansion, but from which It was many miles distant. Ono day a largo piece of timber eiiniedrl ven down by tho stream, and ran aground close to Paul's work shop. Ho went out, examined it, and finding it was very hard wood, lie thought it might serve to make a new block for his anvil. He and his sons drew it on shore and set it up against n wall, that it might dry. Some time after it happened that o poor, miserable beggar camo to his door and begged for a bit of bread. The smith's wife gave him both beer nnd food, and ho chanced to hear tlmt the smith's name was Paul. They entered Into conversation, and it appeared that tho beggar was the same person who had ouco been called Rich Peter tho Huckster, and who in his youth had been u herd-boy together with Paul The smith now mado him welcome, and they related to each other their ad ventures. Peter talked about ids great mansion, his woods, and his lino fisher ies, all of which ho had lost In conse quence of parting with Ids lucky penny : and Paul showed him his children and ills little property. When they had thus talked together forsomo time, the smith' said that he must go out to ids work; ho was going to chop a piece of wood to make a block for his anvil. When Peter soon nfterwent into 'tlio yard, and looked at tho piece of timber lying outside tho house, which had float ed down the river, he said : " I am much mistaken if this lias not belonged to my eel-pond." And this proved true, for there was Ills name cut on tlio end of tlio log, and lit; told them why it was so chopped. At length his eyes fell on tho wedgo, which was so rotten that it came out us soon us it was touched, when, to their great as tonishment, out rolled the gold andsil ver. Peter thought that tho money must be his, but know not bow it came there. Paul wished him to take it, saying that by right it belonged to him. Hut Peter cared nothingabout it. Money, lie said, was the cause of all his misfortitres, and that he had neither courage nor strength to begin any new trade. It was the same to him how ho dragged out tlio last days of ids miserable life. The smith wished at least to share the money with him, or ho offered to keep him in his bouse and take care of him; but to this ho would not consent. It suited him best, lie said, to wander from place to place; for he never felt at rest or at peace with himself; but ho would once more, ere long, come again and see tlio old companion of his youth. They wero unable to persuade him to remain with them, and tlio next morn ing he again set out on ills wanderings, As lie would not take a single piece of the iiionoy which was found, thosmith's wife consulted with her husband, and they agreed that they would bako a good part of tho money in a loaf, which she would give to tho beggar to take with him on hisjourney. Tlioy thought " When he finds the money lie will find a use for it." Klio then filled ills bag with provis ions, and put tlio loaf in at tho bottom. Peter bado them farewell, promised to coino soon again, and set forth on his wanderings with Ids beggar's stall'. Tlio bag upon his back soon felt too heavy; lie took it off, examined it, and found that it was tho Ibaf which weigh ed the most. 1 lo then went to the near est cottage, and said that some kind friends had given him a loaf to take on his Journey, but it was too heavy to car ry, and asked whether they would buy it of him. Tlio people saldthey would, nnd gave him as much for it as they thought It was worth ; ho then contin ued on his way. The woman wiio had bought tho bread said to her husband: " The other day I borrowed a loaf from the smith ; tills looks a well-baked ono; let us send it lilm in its place." Tho man was nfrald tho loaf was too small; but when they weighed It, they found it had tlio right weight, which was caused by tho money baked in It. It was, therefore, sent to tho smith's, with their thanks, for tho loaf they had lent Paul and ids wifo wero not a Iittlo as tonished to seo the money come buck to them In such a strange manner. Hut they would not u.-o It, and determined to keep it till Peter should come again. Hut this never happened; for a few days after lie was found iad in a field, with his bag of provisions and his'stalf by his side. Paul now considered that ha could with Justice uso tho money ns his- own property ; and thus ho passed Ids old ago In wealth and happiness. Tur. strongest tiling created by Allah is iron.
