Manufacture of Maple Sugar.
The first great requisite is to have
all the vessels perfectly clean. Strict
c'eanliness s' oildbeobst rvelihrc u,;h
out the whole process. Tin vessels
are better than'wood for this rea
son. If properly washed, they can
never impart sourness to the sap.
Made large enough to hold ninO
Juarts each, they would cost about
35 per 100, and six-quart-pails cost
§3O per 100. They may be made
square or round, but the latter are
betterto clean and to keep their shape.
They should be largest at top, so as
to pack away in nests when not in
use. The top should be strongly
wired, like a tin pan, -and a hole made
under the wire enables it to hang on
a nail driven into the tree,securing it
thus from swine and other animals,
and preventing the sap from being
blown away by the wind. Old horse
shoe nails, straightened and sharpen
ed, are the best.
The best spouts are made of thick
tinned iron. When the vessels are
hung as above described on nails,
the spouts need not be more than
three inches long. They should be
widest where they enter the tree.
After the sheet tin is cut up to the
proper size, the concave snap(* is
given to them by placing them be
tween a convex and a concave piece
of wood and giving them a brisk blow
wit. Ik a mullet. Ground sharp at the
wide end, they are easily driven into
a tree.
Never allow the sap to stand in
the pails twenty-four hours—the
fresher it is when boiled, the purer
will be the sugar. While boiling,
large quantities should not be poured
in at a time, as that will stop it, and
make irregular work; but a reservoir
should be jdaced above the boiler, 1
from which the sap may be drawn in j
a stream through a faucet, just fast
enough to supply the evaporation.
A little practice will enable the op-1
erator to judge how large this stream j
should be. Two boilers are better j
than one if the (ire is made to pass j
from under one to the other—the j
first or hottest being chiefly for boil-!
ing down to syrup, and the second or |
coldest for heating the sap and doing j
the first evaporation. The faucet on
fresh sap runs into the first, and a '
pipe of syphon, with faucet, conveys j
it to the second. Cook's patent j
sugar evaporator is verry valuable for \
boiling the juice of sorghum, as it re-1
duces the juice to molasses in less
than half an hour by a continued j
process, and would be very useful j
for maple sugar, but less indispensa
ble. it is on a principle similar to
that of the two boilers above descri
bed, but more complete and perfect;
the sap enters one end and flows
from one side to the other many
times by means of intercepting par
titions, till it reaches the other end,
by which time it is reduced to syrup, j
the proper current being given by j
raising or depressing the end, as the j
case may require.
Kettles are poor boilers—they waste
fuel and make poor sugar. Shallow
sheet-iron pans are much better.
They maybe kept cleaner, they evap
orate more rapidly, make finer sugar,
and effect a great saving of heat.
In all cases, the boilers should be so
set that a thin sheet of flame may
pass under them. For example:—a
sheet of flame two inches thick, under
a boiler, is as good as if a foot thick
—the same amount may therefore be
spread over six times the surface,
and consequently be about six times
more economical.
We have some good home-made
pans, used for boiling sorghum suc
cessfully, made by nailing good thick
sheet-iron to plank, so that the sheet
iron formed the bottom and ends,
and the plank-the sides—the sheet
iron was secured to the plank by two
rows of closely driven nails. The
pans were about 8 feet long, and four
wide, and 6 inches deep. These
would be cheap, and very good for j
making maple sugar. The fire place ]
should of course bea little narrower
than these pans. The chimneys,
should be high enough to cause a
good draught.
To make good sirup, the sap must j
be reduced to one twentieth or one
thirtieth of its bulk, or be boiled twice j
as much as sorghum juice. The sirup
is then to be strained through flannel, I
and placed aside to cool and settle 12
to 24 hours. Then return it to the
van, and to every gallon add and stir
•a beaten egg and a gill of milk to clari
fy it, keeping it carefully from boil
ing till the scum has risen and has
been skimmed off. Then boil it care
fully until it will harden, which may
be known by dropping some from a !
spoon into cold water. When this j
takes place, the liquid sugar maybe'
then poured into proper vessels, and ■
then the cakes placed in a box to j
drain. To make the sugar perfectly !
white, lay a few thicknesses of flannel
on the tops of the cakes while it is
draining ; these flannels to be wet and I
washed daily with cold water—thev \
will thus absorb and washout the col
oring matter.
A hundred good sugar maple trees
will usually make in a season, from 2
to 3 hundred pounds of sugar, if well
managed; and if every precaution is
observed to ensure cleanliness, pre
vent souring, boil speedily and with
out burning, and to clarify properly,
a larger quantity of sugar will be
made; it will be more saleable, and !
command a higher price; or if in- :
tended for home use. the smiles of the
farmer's kind wife, when she sees such j
" a beautiful article make its appear
ance, will more than repay him for al l
1 the pains to secure such excellent sye
-1 cess.
I find that the addition of a tca
* spoonful of salt to each 100 pounds
of sugfcr improves the taste ol the
' sugaf. It gives jt a fuller taste.- —
Salt is also good when used in sirup.
Trees that have large bushy tops
will yield the best sap when nails are
• driven in the trees to hold the buck
et. They should be drawn and saved
for another, and save the chopper and
sawyer many a hard word when they
are cut for lumber.— Country Gent.

CUMBERLAND GAP, Feb. 17. —Capt. |
.T. B. Watkins, Provost Marshal at this J
post, says: , The average number of descr-1
ters from Longstrect's army, who report
to him, is five per day. They all com
plain of being heartily sick of the war.
Their accounts corroborate. The officers
generally consider themselves whipped, I
but thought that the North's finances
were giving out. At times when the
rebel officers are going the rounds, reliev
ing guard, tlicy find that whole lines of
their pickets have deserted. The country
is full of such, who are awaiting opportu
nities to give themselves up.
On Friday last, Longstrect's licadquar- :
ters were at Morristown. Ilis main forces
are at Strawberry Plains, under marching
orders. They say that the reason why
Longstreet did uot attact our force, was
want of confidence in his men.
SOUTHERN RADICALISM.—At a mee
ting in St. Louis, a few evenings since,
I Judge Tibbetts'of Arkansas, an orig
| inal L'nion man, having been called
j upon for some remarks, said that
j every Union man in the South was an
j immediate emancipationist; that the

soon there would be more radicalism
j in the South than in the North.

Questions and Answers.
28. QUESTION : Has the teacher the 1
right to take the writing liooks from the j
scholars when they have done writing and j
keep them in his desk until they are need- |
ed the next day?
ANSWER : This, at first view, appears ;
to be a foolish question to place in the.of- j
ficial department of the Journal; and yet, j
there is a principle involved that it will He
well for both pupils and teachers to have
settled. It is the duty of the teachers to i
see that the books of the pupils be well a
taken care of. Scholars should not be al
lowed, by the teacher, to abuse and injure
their books, although parents do purchase
them instead of the teacher. There is a
very general complaint, and we think just
ly too, that teachers do not appear to care
whether books are well taken care of or
abused ; hence parents many times object
to getting new ones, when, perila"ps, they !
arc «ctually needed. The books that arc I
to be used frequently through the day, j
either for'study or for reference, must, for I
the sake of convenience, be kept l>y the ,
pupils in or upon their own desks; but
this is not the case with writing books.
They arc needed only while writing once
or twice during the whole day, and at oth
| er times should not be used by them in any
! w. y.
There can no inconvenience result to
the pupils if their writing books are kept
from them, only at writing times. Very
many scholars will take*occasion to blot
and scribble their books if they are left j
j with them anl-some will tear them, or they j
will be torn by others. Therefore the j
| writing books wi.l be better eared for and j
j kept in a better condition, as a general 1
j thing, if the pupils are not allowed to have |
| them, only when they arc to be used.
I Again, unless the teacher give special i
I care to the subject, some of the pupils will '
! get their books and try to write, while he j
j is of necessity engaged in other matters. !
! Writing as ncll aseverytliing else should
be taught by the track /-and under liisspe- j
eial attention, and no pupil should be per- j
mittcd to write at a time when the teach- j
er cannot give attention to him. Hence
the books should be where there can be no
I temptation for pupils to scribble upon j
| them, abuse them, or write in them. As i
I Ihe teacher is to see that these books arc
I properly taken care of and the pupils im-
I prove in writing, be is the proper person
j to take care of the writing hooks when not
.in u-e. It is therefore his right and bis
| duty to take charge of them, only at such
times as the scholars arc not actually en
! gaged in writingr.
I 29. QUESTION : Is not a person to pay
j the minimum tax of one dollar in the dis- j
, trict where he resides ?
ANSWER: He is. The 79th section of
the school law (passed April 11. 1502,)
; declares expressly, "that upon every rcsi- I
I dent male taxable of tho age of twenty
| one years the proper board of directors j
| shall assess the minimum occupation tax I
I not allowed by law." etc. This tax, there- j
I lore, is to be paid into the school treasury j
| of the district in whichthe individualhas j
| his residence.. He is not liable however j
j to pay thistax in any othcrdistrict in which '
he may have property. \
30. QUESTION: Is it the.duty of the
county Superintendents to grant private
examinations wherever asked by teachers
to do so?
ANSWER: This matter of private ex- j
animations is more troublesome to Super j
intendents than almost any other. It ap-l
pears to be necessary, in some cases, to ex-i
amine candidates at other times, than the j
public examination ; it would, therefore, j
I be difficult to forbid special inspection in |
all cases. It would perhaps at times de- j
prive schools of teachers. But if these
private or special examinations arc allowed
indiscriminately, many teachers will take 1
advantage of it and never attend the pub
lic inspection. It is evidently in accord
ance with the spirit of the law to require
all the teachers to be examined publicly in
the districts in which they are to teach.
This is plain from the 153 d sec. found on ;
page 83; and yet. circumstances do arise
iu which a special examination is necessa
ry, but they should never be granted only
when ta the Superintendent itshall appear
they are necessary. If he examines ov
e-y candidate that presents himself, his :
time will all be taken in that way, and the :
objects of the law defeated. Persons ask
ing for a special inspection must, before
tbey can be examined, present to the Su- :
perinteudent a request signed 1 y a majori
ty of the board, stating that they desire to
employ the bearer, if found to be qualifi
ed. in one of the schools of their district,
also giving the why he, or she was
not at the public examination. This re
quest should be kept on file by the Super
intendent. Certificates granted in such ca
ses should be given only until the time of I
the next public examination in the dis- ; '
trict. And it will be well for the Super- '
iutendent to note on the back of each, the
fact that it was given at a private examin
ation,—stating uA* ' at the request of what (
board of directors and for what reason it t 1
was given. This will afford him a justi
fication of his course, and place the mat- ; '
tcr where it will be seen by all who exam
ine the certificate. If known that the ap- 1
plicant was absent from the public exam
ination without asufficientexcuse, or staid j
away to avoid a public inspeetion, he should
not under such circumstances grant a cer- j
tificat e.—l'a. School Journal.

newspaper published in America,or (we believe) In the
world. Compelled a year since to lucre®"' the prlco of

more than Two Hundred Thousand subscribers an-1 re,*ii

tho-e <>r any rival. Awl this unprecedented currency It
has achieved I* VMrylibei .il expciidjj lire- in
i early and authentic intelligence, by the fearless expre*-
<»i. »i» of con villains, by the free employment of ability and
iu <tistry wherever it might contribute t< excellence In
iinv department of our enterprise, and by unshrinking
fidelity to the dictate of Justice, Humanity, Mid Free

By very large outlay* for early and authentic advices
j by telegraph nnd otherwise front it* owy correspondents
! with the various armies of llie I tllon, nnd by special t-f-
Wts to furnish such infbravUlon respecting Slarkct%
Crops, new discoveries or improvement* in Agriculture,
Ac., as must specially interest farmers,we have assidiously
labored to make a j •urnal calculated !•» meet the wants
•and subserve the interests of the Producing Classes.-
That end we have at least measurably attained; f»r n«>
other newspaper exists in America or Hurope which is
habitually road by nearly so many farmers and their fam

zations through the spontaneous uprising of the people
of the Free State- against the repudiation of the Mi-s-mti
Restriction, The Tribune heartiiv participated in that
I movemet t. and was known ns Republican. When the
long smoldering conspiracy to divide ami destroy our
country or redttee It entire to complete nbasetnent to the
| Hlave power culminated in overt treas n and rebellion,
jit naturally. neeesssrily regarded resistance to this ch
• spiracy as paramount to all other considerations, and de«
j voted all its energies and efforts !•• the maintenance of our
j I'nlon. In e\ery great controversy which has divided
I oui country, it has been foimd on that side which natu

leaves the time, the nature and tip- conditions ol that ad-
