HOME MANUFACTURED SYRUP-\ Jno. A. Calhoun, Ksq., lias left at our cBioe a sample of his syrup manufactured from ^ie Chinese Sugar Cane on his plantation, wliWi will compare favorably in color and dcliciou^ ness to tlie ln-st New Orleans syrup. It is unilnnt.toill f?.? ? ' ' 1 ?<; ?i)ivc seen una aaecWed improvement upon the manufacture of this useful article. Il has a pleasant, sugary taste which *e have never before noticed in tliis kind o. vrup, which is sufficient evidence that the snct'Litrifcrous qualities of the Ohineoe cane is enp-jie of producing eugor xvheu once the proces* ?f granulation is discovered. Mr. Oalhoan informs us tbnt he has manufactured 1,200 gallons of excellent sj-rup nod is now experimenting to miike su^ar, which, he says, <\in o .j be done by rapid boiling?240 degrees slow boiling makes candy, and ntpid boiling ^sfces^jigar. Mr. Caliican's saeeess, bo far .eouroges the hopei?f succeeding in ttoe inanicture of augar, and very wisely urgea ourj ,?!ar?!.ers to mnW* pffnrt? t<*r ? . ? .? ?vo Ulliuuiociurc 1 from the Chinese cant;, that tbe oecrct may be discovered by some 0110. That there is something about the manufacture of (his kind of Cane, which our planters have not discovered'^ beyond a doubt, and .: it fi lias granulating qualities. Last winter ?. ,e purchased two gallons of Chinese syrup roin Mr. Talbert Cheatham fur the purpose of making printing rollers?about a gallon was used and the remaining gallon left in the jug ib our office, and a few weeks ago we bad 'occasion to pour somo of it out when we discovered it was very thick with glutinous lUitaps which appears to.be in a process of granulation. ri Tho manufacture of sugar would, at this tinve, 10 the Southern Confederacy, be a greit accession in the way of nutrition, and the matter of experimenting with the Chinese C*ne to ' this end in well worth tho attention of every t firmer. Wo hope Mr. Calhoun will aucce$j in his efforts and we will iira short time be *? able to give tho process to our readers at the name timo we urge every planter engaged in ' the trfanufacture of syrup; to try to make snJar?as it can be done, oiice the process is iscovcred. / Oe.v.
