The Chinese Sugar Caae.
Reiner requested by many to publish a state
ment, through the columns of j'oiir paper, of
inv experience with, and the value of the Chi
nese Sugar Cane, I therefore send you the f<>l-1
lowing statcnu nt, wh'c!) you will please insert :
On the 25t!i of Miy I planted 'about half
on acre of ground, one year old. A portion!
of the soil was low and wet in the spring—in
fact I covered the see 1 with mud ; the other i
part was Jiigli and sandy ; the consequence ;
was, when the dry season set in tile wet part
baked very hard, and the high burnt up for
want of rain. I plowed it when about ten j
inches high, and that was all the working it ■
got, with the exception of a slight hoeing pre
vious to plowing ; my object was to ascertain j
the amount of saccharine matter contained in
the stalks, and supposed enough would grow
to make the experiment. Many of the stalks
grew from sixteen to twenty feet high, (in the
.low ground it only grew twelve feet.)
Having made a mill in which to grind it, I
commenced on tho 24th of September. The
cane then had received two or three frosts,
which slightly injured the taste of the water.
I am convinced that the amount of stalks I
used can lie grown o:i less than a quarter of an
acre. The amount of water obtained from the
piece was 270 gallons, from which I made 45
gallons, which, in flavor and beautiful bright
red color, is far superior to any molasses ob
tained from the South. I did not try to grain
any of it, as it will not grain after being frost
ed ; but I am convinced there will be no diffi
culty in graining it if tried previous to frost.
If it is planted by the middle of May, it will
ripen by the end of August, and remain in good
condition until frost, and if cut up and put in
a shed (in apprehension of frost) it will keep
well for a mouth or more.
I will give a statement of what may lie made
per acre, judging from the amount of water ob
tained from each stalk. One of my neighbors,
Mr. A. 1 >egan, obtained from seven choice
stalks one gallon of water ; and in another
trial made by Mr. MeClearv, Sen., and my
self, we pressed from ten stalks one gallon and
a quart. The number of staiks in a hill should
be from four to six. In my calculations I on
ly estimate one quart of water to the hill, al
lowing sixteen hills per square rood, which will
make 2,560 hills to the acre : and this, atone
quart per hill, will make 110 gallons of molas
ses. Valued at 75 cents per gallon, it would
amount to $8,250 per acre, and I do not hesi
tate in saying that the amount may be doubled.
I would urge upon the farmers of the wes
tern country to try it. You will not only save,
but make money in the operation. lam well
convinced that in 1860 the southern planter
will have no sale for his sugar in the State of
Illinois. From present indications there will
be one hundred acres raised in Wabash couu
ty next year, which will save the county $lO,-
000. The time to commence working the cane
is when the seeds have changed from green to
a dark red hue, although it will remain good
until fairly matured.
Should any person wish to make the experi
ment, I have some seed to spare—one quart
will plant an acre. J. M. Kliron, McCleary's

HORSES RUN WKI.I. FEU. —The following re
marks of a skillful practitioner and close ob
server, are worthy of attention. I)r. Dacd has
been, however, more uniformly fortunate in the
horses which have passed before his eyes, than
some others. Horses are often overfed with
grain, but we never knew one to eat too much
hay or grass, when it was supplied regularly.
Tliey are rarely attacked with disease, when
little or no grain is given them ; or if given,
when supplied in small and regular quantities.
The most frequent causes of disease, are high
and irregular working, and exposure and wa
ter when warm by exercise.
A great proportion of our horses are too
well fed—obtain more food than they require.
In this land of plenty most of our valuable hor
ses are overfed, and more especially does this
happen among animals owned by wealthy and
liberal individuals. The impression we wish
to convey to the mind of the reader is, that
the food of such, is not proportioned to labor
—in other words, there exists a disproportion
between the amount of carbon taken in the
form of food, and the oxygen received in the
process of respiration. Now to illustrate this,
we will suppose that a man engaged in mer
cantile pursuits owns one or more horses ; lie
has not the time nor inclination, to give the
one or the other the necessary amount of ex
ercise ; they stand up to a full crib, from day
to day ; enjoying, or rather, gorging them
selves with a certain amount of fodder, over
and above what they actually require, and
much more than they really need ; the surplus
is often stored up in the form of fat, and this
induces acute diseases, and they die of too nut eh
food and care. It is very rare that we have
occasion to recommend a man to feed his horse
more liberally, lint almost always the reverse.
Starvation is said to be the cause for many
equine diseases, but so far as our experience
goes, such eases are, in this country, very rare.
\V e conceive the term starvation to be a libel
upon civilization ; and so infrequent is its ap
plication among a nation of husbandmen, that
it is omitted in our dictionaries. A man on a
barren rock, or a horse in the deserts of Ara
bia, might probably starve, but the idea of the
latter starving in the vicinity of a well-stock
ed barn or stable—within striking distance of
a land of plenty—seems te us a very absurd
conclusion.
There are enough horses to be found dress
ed up in the garb of starvation ; having tight
skins, prominent ribs, and a cadaverous coun
tenance, living, vet half dead. Bit they know
nothing of the " Famine in Fgypt they get
eitoughfAnit too much of the same kind. —Dadd's
Veterinary Journal.
llow MCCH Snorr.o A COW; £AT ?— COWS, to
give milk, require more food!than most far
mers imagine. .1. W. Johnstone, writing from
Muuich to the Country Uenllensan t gives an in
teresting report of some experiments which have
been made in Baravia, from which the follow
ing is an extract : " Our trials have confirmed
the view that cows, to give tlie greatest pos
sible quautity of milk, must daily receive and
consume one-thirtieth of their live weight in hay,
or an equivalent therefor. If more food be gi
ven it goes to the formation of flesh and fat,
without occasioning a corresponding increase
in the yield of milk ; but if, on the contrary,
less food be furnished, the amount and value
uf the milk will be greatly diminished."

tons of eels shipped tf> New York, by a single

Till- Tlill'.l Xi: FOR 1857.
Tho Election is past, ami it- results proves that tho
work devolved on tlie Republican party is not yet com
'pitted. In all the Eastern and Northern portions of the
cost' try—in New-England, Xcw York.Ohio and the North
\\'<-t- the Itcpubliean banner floats in triumph : while in
Southern .ler ey. Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois—in
short, wherever few newspapers arc taken, and where j
ennrnnn school - arc too new and to feeble to have edu
cated the pre cat generation of voters—the black flag of i
Slaverv obstructs the sunshine. A stranger to America j
might distinguish those portions of our country most i
blc-soil with Education. Intelligence. Thrift and Virtue,
by scanning the returns of the Presidential contest of 1 .">(!.
\Ve have failed of present success, not because the Peo
ple are against us. but because that large portion who did
not he ir or read the argument and do not know what
were the real q c- tions at issue, went almost solid against
ns. reversing the verdict which the great majority of the
educated and intelligent endeavored to pronounce.
These fiets indicate the path of pressing duty. With
no unman!r repinings over what is irrevocable—with no
abatement'of heart or hope because the triumph of Liber
ty in lier new ordeal is not won at the I.ong Island and
White Plains of her struggle—with no shadow of regret
that the responsibility of governing is not confided to her
champions before the People were fully ready to sustain
them—wc begin afresh the work of diffusing that vita!
truth which, in regard to the concerns of this world as
well as of the next, makes Free indeed. Now. in the
Slave Power's heyday of victory, when its ministers and
servitors are gathering and plotting to make the most of
their triumph and " crush out" the spirit which they vuin
lv believe to be crucified and entombed—now, when the
faint-hearted or cohl-lieartcd who lately basked in the
sunshine of our nrcmatiire hopes arc hauling off to repair
damages and talking of abandoning tho rugged arena of
Politics for more quieL and flowery fields—now, in this
hour of wearin-'ss and shadow, Tin: THIIU NK renews its
1 vows of eternal hostility to everv form of tyranny over
I the bodies or souls of men- to the shameful assumption
: that the benighted and feeble, whether in soul or body,
j are to bo regarded and treated as the convenience or the
| prcv of their wiser or stronger brethren—to the doniina
i tioii of despots and oligarchs, whether of empires or plan
j tations—to the enslavers of cities ami kingdoms in Europe
] or the breeders of children for the auction-block and the
eottou-fiehl in Virginia or Alabama.
The doctrine that no human being was ever created for
the benefit or advantage of another—that all service be
tween man and man should be free ami reciprocal—that
the laborer should not toil and sweat to pamper others'
pride or minister to others' luxury,but for the sustenance
and comfort of those near and dear to him—is destined to
certain triumph. It must prevail, for (Jnd reigns, and
Earth was not created to be a tiieatre of injustice, oppres
sion ami misery for ever. It must triumph : for all true
prophecy affirms and the vindication of the Divine benig
nity imperatively requires it. It must triumph : for De
mocratic America cannot always remain the scoff of aris
tocrats and the shame of reformers and liberals through
out the Old World. It must triumph : for Man's history
is not a chaos or a riddle, but everywhere instinct with
meaning : and no heroic effort ever failed of its efli i t—no
drop of martyr blood was ever slied in vain.
But even if v. e Republican - were disposed to fold our
arms in slninberouradvcrsarie* would not permit it. They
an- busy to-day in lengthening ttieir cords and strength
ening tfieir stakes with a vigilance and activity which re
veals a consciousness on their part that their dominion
must be made sure forthwith or tlicir sceptre will have
forever departed. To-day. myrniidoms of the Slave Pow
er threaten and harass Northern Mexico, arc encamped
in the heart of Central America and waging a war of ex
termination on the distracted inhabitants of its petty Re
publics, while it Ly turns leers and scowls at Cuba, while
its uiost ruthless bands are precipitated on devoted Kan
sas, under the protection and smiles of the Federal Ad
ministration. Even as we write, the telegraph informs
us that twenty Free-State men, guilty of attempting to
defend their homes again-t the rapine and violence of Ibi
ford's and Titus' blooil-thirsty bandits, have been convic
ted by Eceompte's of manslaughter 1 anil sentenced
to live years' imprisonment at hard labor as felons. This
is but a fair specimen of what has long passed for "jus
tice" in Kansas—a justice which takes the criminals into
pay and aids them in hunting down, plundering and
" wiping out" tlie innocent, whom it consigns to the
State prison if they are ever goaded into the madness of
resisting their oppressors. Such crimes and wrongs as
unhappy Kansas has for twelve months endured, even
Hungary or Poland lias never known ; and the Power at
whose instigation these villainies were and are perpetra
ted sits enthroned in the White House, and has just
achieved another four years' ascendancy in the Federal
(lovernment. Who, in view of these facts, can say that
Republicans may now pile their arms, even for an hour ?
TRIK TKIUCNH will lie, as it has been, a Political Jour
nal—-avowedly, though not exclusively so. It recognizes
the truth that Freedom and Slavery are here grappled in
deadly conflict, and that in the result one of them must
lose all control over the Federal (lovernment. But. while
it gives prominence and emphasis to the discussion and
elucidation of the great issue of the day, it sinks none of
the characteristics of a Business and Family Newspaper.
The proceedings of Congress, like those in Kansas, will
he watched and reported hv an able and fearless corps of
Correspondents, while from London. Paris. Constantino
ple. Havana, San Francisco, Allmny and other centres ol
interest, our special advices will he, as they have been,
fresh and reliable. A member of our Editorial corps-
Bayard Taylor—is now in Northern Europe, and will
spend the Winter in Sweden, Lapland, Russia, thence
making his way next season across Siberia and Tartarv
to the mouth of the Amour, and thence homeward by fife
Pacific and California, unless some change of route shall
promise greater interest and profit to our readers, for
whom alone lie will write regt ly throughout his adven
turous journey, which is likely to require two years for
its completion. Our reports of the most interesting Lec
tures. Public Meetings. Ac., will be full and reliable, and
our Foreign and Domestic News made up with a careful
regard to the condensation into our ample columns of the
greatest amount of intelligence that is consistent with
the use of type of a generous size. In short, il we fail to
make THE TKIHINK worth, its cost, it shall not be for want
of expenditure or effort.
If it be deemed desirable by Republicans that THE TKI
BE.NE should be circulated in their several localities, we
urge them to see that Clubs he made up and forwarded
in due season. The Postmasters arc semi officially ad
monished not t > aid our circulation, but to urge instead
that of journals deemed " sound"' and " National'' by the
compatriots of Atchison and Striugfellow. We -k live
Republicans everywhere to take care that these efforts be
not effectual to quench the light of Freedom in the mur
ky laists of Slavery.
