Sorghum in Chester Coun'y
lqoked into the Sorghum mill of
Messrs. W. & T. neepes, near our bor
ough p few days ago, lire found that
many of the citizens of West Chester
and neighborhood had made the same
pilgrimage, and in fact it was a popular
resort. Molasses suits the taste, especi
ally the yonkers, and we are not surprised
that a mill where the delicious fluid is
made to order at the rate of twelve to
fifteen gallons an hour has strong attrac
tions fur thetn. We found half a hun
dred of blooming school girls just enter
giug front the mill. The mill is situated
ina fit/tile vale north of the boroegh,and
is gut up by the proprietors, who are
gentlemen of mechanical skill, tic:cut-d
-ing to their own ideas, and combines all
the latest improvements. The building
is too small, if we may venture a criti
emit, but the works are so compactly ar
ranged, as apparently to give ample
room. In the lower story is the engine,
furnace, boilers, coolers,' &e. A stair
way leads to the second story, where arts
the heavy jrou rollers, which crush the
stalks. The rollers draw in the stalks as
they are fed by an attendant, and the
sap gushes out and runs into btles, from
whence it flows by tubes as it is Medea
into the vats or boilers helms:. We do
not propose to describe the process of
manufacture, further than to state that
the boilers consist of large wooden
troughs, and the liquid is boiled by means
of lairs of tubes at the bottom, which are
heated by steam. By this system, the
molasses is not scorched—hence the ar
ticle made by the Messrs. 11. has no su
perior any where.
We are glad to announce that notwith
standing the large capacity of this mill,
it has as much custom engaged as it can
possibly execute for this season. At the
time we visited the mill, an adjacent
field was covered with "stacks" of the
raw material—awaiting their turn—re
sembling a pity of tents or an Minn vil
lage. Two hundred fitrmers had engag
, ad the services of the mill, and wagons
were hourly arriving laden with the
erable outlay in these works; but at a
charge of 30 cents a gallon, and 12 or 15
gallons an hour, they are likely to re
ceive an appropriate rewat4 for their en
terprise. The success of Messrs. U. is
an example and encouragement to gentle
men in other parts of the country, where
there are no mills, but where there
should be. They took a practical view
of the subject. Last spring when pro
posing to erect their mill, they supplied
themselves with a lot of superior sorghum
seed ; then advertising in the "Record"
that Cannes could obtain the seed by call
ing upon them, they furnished every
farmer who applied; then going to work
they had their mill ready for work when
the cane was ripe. By thus obtaining
the seed, supplying the farmers and en
couraging them to plant, they created
tee neceosity fury mill, and when a mill
was needed it was ready. There is now
no article in the market, domestic or im
ported, superior to the article made by
Messrs. lioopcs—little that is equal to it.
We advise all persons who wish to be
informed upon this interesting subject,
to visit the n.tablishluest3 and if they
should happen to have an idle moment,
the proprietors will give them much
valuable information and a cordial wel
game.
We have heretofore referred to the
popularity and success of the manutltc
ture of sorghum iy Chester county, and
the rapid growth of its production during
the last two years. We present the fol
lowing list of mills at this time in "the
full tide of successful experiment" in
Chester county :
Milton Cunard, Londongrove township.
Darlington Pyle, do
Everett Conant, New London.
John Huston, do
Wm. Graves, Kennett.
Evan Dixon, du

Aliner Pusey, East Marlborough.

Joseph Kent Upper Oxford.
William Evans,
Isaiah Knauer, Vallee Forge.
C. At. It. Mentor. London lintatn.
et. 4.! Woolens, Ea-t Nottingham.
Jesse Mamie, `Vest mariborough.
These twenty wills ; each having one
hundred customer, would show that two
thousand farmers in Mester county, had
cultivated sorghum lust year. Some of
these mills have two or three hundred
customers, aid the whole number of flu
men who raise their own molasses is not
less than three or four thousand in the
county. There is but one mill north of
the Lancaster turnpike, but we may ex
pect in another year, there will be sev
eral established.
We gave in the Record, a the
Sorghum mill in Chester county, so far
as we were able to collect them. We
omitted to name that of Jonathan T. Lew
is, in East Brandywine, who has already
manufactured this season, some 3000 gal
lons. There arc probably other mills in
the county, Mr. Lewis mentions to us
as an instance of the productiveness of
the sorghum, that the crop of John Ma
son, grow on the eight of an :ore, yield
ed forty-two gallons of molasses.
A bottle of Sorghum from C and D Mer
cer, of London Britain : also, one from
Elwood Michiner, of new Garden, Ches
ter county, have been presented to us.
These specimens fully come upto the
highest standard of exec:mice, and satisfy
us that hence forth Chester county will
import but little molasses which has conic
to be one of the necessaries of life. The
Messrs. Mercer had the first steam Mall
untetory in the county. Their mill was
burnt down last fall ; but they
quickly fixed up another by water power
and arc now driving a head. In esti:lt:L
-O- the skill of the manufacturer, the
quality of the cane, which varies very
much, is to be taken into consideration.
—West Ch seer Hecord.
The Washington Star gives the fol
lowing account, of the eardure of Roger
A. Pryor--Au officer on picket duty
noticing ti than prowling in front on the
picket line, drew a paper frein his pocket
and waved it to the rebel as a sign to
00ine forward and "exchange," not for a
moment saspeeting who the individual
was. Pryor seeing the officer waving the
paper. Lally advanced towards our lines.
when the Union officer discovered that
he was a ribel of rank, and instead of
offering the paper for exchange, drew a
pistol and presen:ed it to Roger's head,
at the Sallie tine requesting binn to sur
render, which he did without resistance,
but was evidently it little crestfallen at
being "taken in and done fr" by a Van
kee. Pryor now belongs to the 7th Vir
ginia cavalry, having. been reduced to
the ranks, it will be remembered, by
court martial for disobedience of orders.
At the time or his capture he was at
tached to General Lee's headquarters as
Lee's chief scout.

Tan peculia . x taint or
infection which we
Call .SCROFULA lurks
n the constitutions of
mhitudes of men. It
titer produces or is
7calueed by an en.,
!ebled, vitiated state
?the blood, wherchi
%at fluid becomes in
impetent to sustain
e vital forces in their
igorous action, and
ayes the system to
_ —..l into disorder and
decay. The scrofulous contamination is va-
Tionsly caused by mercurial disease, low
living, disordered digestion from unhealthy
food, impure ,air, filth and filthy habits,
the depressing vices, and, alive all, by
the venereal infection. Whatever be its
origin, it is hereditary in the constitution,
descending, "from parents to children unto
the third and fourth generation ; " indeed, it
seems to lie the rod of Hint who says, I will
visit the iniquities of the litthers upon their
children." The diseases it originates take
various names, according
to the organs it
attaeks. In the lungs, Scrofula produces
tutu-re-es, and finally Consumption ; in the
glands, swellings which suppurate and be
come ulcerous sores ; in the stomach and
bowels, derangements which produce indi
gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; on
the skin, eruptive and cutaneous alleetions.
These, all having the same origin, require the
same remedy, viz., purification and invigora
tion of the blood. Purify the blood, and
these dangerous distempers leave you. With
feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot
have health ; with that "life of the flesh"
healthy., you cannot have scrofulous disease.
Aymos Sarsaparilla
is compounded from the most effectual anti
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this afflicting distemper, and for the cure of
the disorders it entails. That it is far supe
rior to any other remedy yet devised, is
known by all who have given it atrial. That
it does combine virtues truly extraordinary
in their effect upon this class of complaints,
is indisputably proven by the great multitude
of publicly known and remarkable cures it
hos made of the following diseases : King• ; :,
Evil, or Glandular Swellings, Tumors,
Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores,
Erysipelas, Bose or St. Anthony's Fire,
Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from
tuberculous deposits in the lungs, White
Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole
series of complaints that arise from impurity
of theidood. Minute reports of individual
eases may be found in Armes ANC/RICAN
ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may be
learned the directions for its use, and some
of the remarkable cures which it has made
when all other remedies had tidied to afford
relief. Those cases are purposely taken
from all sections of the country, in order
that every reader may have access to some
one wit() can speak to him of its benefits from
personal experience. Scrofula depresses the
%ital energies, and thus leaves its victims for
more subject to disease and its fatal results
than are healthy constitutions. hence it
tends to shorten, and does greatly shorten,
tile average duration of human life. The
Nast importance of these considerations has
led us to spend years in perfecting a remedy
which is adequate to its cane. This we now
offer to the public under the name of Avim's
Smts.teAut M.A. although it is composed of
ingredients, sonic of which eNceed the best
of Sarsaparilla in alterative power. By its
aid you may protect yourself from the suffer
ing and danger of These disorders. Purge
out the foul corruptions that rot and foster
in the blood, purge out the causes of disease,
and vigorous health will follow. By its pecu
liar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital
functions, and thus expels the distempers
which lurk within the system ur burst out
on any part of it.
We know the public have been deceived
by ninny compounds of Sat:sapart , lla, that
:ts virtues have been prov;i7
by alntu
dant trial, and there remains no qua,tion of
its surpassing excellence for the cure of the
afflicting db.eases it is intended to reach,
Although under the saute name, it is a very
different medicine front any other tt !dell has
been bethre the people, and is far in u re e f.
fectual than any other• which has ever been
available to them.

IRON IN THE BLOOD,
. •
It is well known to the medical proles-
SlOll tl at IRON is tile vital Principle or Life
element of the blood. This is derived
chiefly front tltd food we eat; but if the
food is not properlfi digested, or if, from
any cause whatevei, thef recossitry (mond
ty of iron is not taken into tlir eircultdioit,
or becomes reduced, the whole system suf
fers The bad blood will irritate the heart,
will clog up the lungs, will stupefy the
brain, will obstruct the liver, and will send
its disease producing elements to all parts
of the system, and every one will sutler in
whatever organ may be predisposed to dis
ete,e.
The great value of
IRON AS A MEDICINE
Is well known and acknowledged by all
medieal tnen. The dillitiulty has been to
obtainimeh a preparation of it as will enter
the circulation and assimilate ut once with
the blood. This point, says Dr. Hayes,
