BEET SUGAR
Claus Sprcekgls-Thinks it Can be
Made Profitably in America.
Claus Spreckels, the sugar king of
San Francisco, who is at the Fifth
Avenue hotel, having arrived from
Europe yesterday afternoon, is full of
enthusiasm over liis best-sugar project
and as soon as the machinery arrives
h« will set up a mill in California for
making this variety of sugar. He has
been studying up tlie subject in Eu¬
rope for several months, and he is con
lilent that American fanners could
just a* well as not make goo l profits
by raising the sugar beet. For his fac¬
tory he lias purchased a great deal oi
expensive machinery in Germany.
“I could not get this machinery
made in Amerisa at present,” said Mr.
Sprockets this morning, “for there is
no one here who knows how to make
it. After American mechanics bays
seen what I am bringing out, however,
they could doubtless reproduce it.
Everywhere in Europe I saw American
aggricultural implements of various
kinds. In my hotel in London, also, 1
was directed to take the “American
lift,” as they demonstrated the eleva¬
tor. But Americans don’t understand
the beet sugar business as yet.”
Mr. Kprecbels declined to talk about
Hawaiian affairs, and did not say when
he intended to foreclose that mortgage
which he is popularly supposed to hold

THE COTTON TAX,
n :•
Soon after the war the Southern
xlanters were robbed by ibe govern¬
ment, by the imposition of an illegal
tax on cotton- of $15,000,000. This
tax was declared to be unconstitu¬
tional, and the amount appropriated
by the government still remains ii»
the treasury of the United Stales,
Why has not this money been re
funded to the planteis of the South':
There is not even a decent pretext
that can be urged against ihe return
of the money to the people or the
Slates.
There never w as a inure outrageous
act of public plunder commjted by
the government than :u the impo¬
sition and collection of this cotton tax
-rom the Southern fanner.
Why do not the Democratic cou
gressineu unite in securing an appro¬
priation to refund the amount oi
¥l5,oyo,OOU illegally collected^ from
the South at a time when planters
were impoverished: 1 Even the Re
pub.ica-is would not .oppose a bib
making restitution iu a case like
ibis. They could not afford to place
hennelvc s upon record against re
tfunding a tax which has been de¬
clared unconstitutional.
T he Chronicle agrees with the
Bnminghfcni Age that bout Lein Co n
gressmen should no longcor delay iu.
securing legislation by Congress re¬
funding the cotton tax tj the farm¬
ers of ilie South or to the States in
promotion to the amount collected.—

Y OU US RESPECTF UDLY.
The tyranny of custom is shown
in ffie way people begin and end their
letters. We use the tenner epithet
of “Ddar” in writing to persons
whom we never saw, and of whom
we know scarcely anything. We
end a letter of pure formality by
declaring that we arc our correspon¬
dents property, and imply that we
hold him in the-bighest respect for
condescending to be our proprietor.
I’hus we say, “Yours very respect
fully.” A young gentleman t was
much embarrassed, the. other day, in
writing to a lady doctor, who aided
to skill and learning the charmrs of
youthful beauty: He declares that
when he wrote tju words, “Dear
Doctor,’ at the beginning of his
letter, he could n.it help blushing
at the unseemly familiarity. He
thought of Portia iu the Merchant
of Venice,and blushed again a 4 be
viewed his impudent-looking words
m the paper. But he had to 'et
t hem stand, not wishing to seem
disrespectful by omitinsr all siluti..
tiou, and not daring tv invent one
if his own.
There is one comfort: we are
shortening these ceremonious be¬
ginnings and endings. A journalist
some time ago,examined three hun¬
dred of his letters io s*e what, form
of ternunatiou was most frequently
ueed- “Yours truly” carried the day
Itoccured eignty-live times in fbree
hundred. All the others forms,
such as Y’ours respectfully,’ and
Sincerely yours.” Ldl far behind,
and only two of his correspondents
had been guilty of the gross false¬
hood of writing, “Your obedient
servant,”

THE PROGRESS OF THE NAs
TICN.
The animal address at the Stotben
County (N 1") Fair was delivered
inis year by the lion A nos J Cum¬
mings. It is one of the most in¬
structive an I eloquent aMressos we
ever read, Wo give the. opening
paragraph:
We are on the threshold of the
twentieth century. In seventeen
days the nation will be a hundred
years old. The present century has
surpass;d all its predecessors in the
development of the art*and sciences;
the nation has outstripped all other
nationalities in rapidity of growth,
in thrift, in enterprise, in wealth,
and in material and intellectual pro
grogress. Smoko from i.s steamships
is funnelled over every sea. The whis¬
tle* of its locomotives are heard ou
every continent. It has harnessed
anew the lightning tamed by Franklin
and sent in into the depls of the ocean
and to the uttermosts parts of the earth
Its flag has been bon e within 480 miles
of the North Pole, Its scholars and its
authors have doubled llie domain of
literature. Its inventors have tripled
the area of the field of science. The
bravery of its soldiers lias strengthened
the wings of liberty. The industry of
its farmers has made it the granary of
llie globe.
a GOOD BUSINESS MANREC
COMMENDS IT.
Jonn Wanamaker, the great Phil,
adelphia merchant, recently spoke
as follows about advertising. “I
neper in my life used such a thing
as a poster, or dodger, or handbill.
J/y plan for fifteen years has been
io buy so much space in a newspaper
and fill it up with what I wanted.
I would not give an advertisement
in a newsyaper of 400 circulation for
5.000 circulars or p.-sters. If I wan
ted to soil cheap jewelry or run a
lottery scheme I might use posters
but I would not insult a decent
reading pub io with hand-bills. The
class of people who read such things
are poor material to look to for slip
port iu merchantilo affairs. I deal
directly with the publisher, I say
to him: “How long wilf you let me
run a column of matter through yom
paper for $100 or $500.” as the C'se
maybe. I lot him da the figuring
and if I thiuk he is not trying to
take more than his share, 1 give him
the copy. I lay asido the profits on
a particular line of goods tor adver;
tiding purposes. Til# first year I
la ;j aside $3,000; lust year 1 spent
$45,0(J<). 1 have lone better this
year and shall increase ihnt sum as
the profits warrant it. I owe my
success to the liewspapi rs, and to
them I shall freely give a certain
profit of my yearly bu.-incss.

MODERN SCIENCE—WHERE
WILL IT STOP?
Almost everything under the sun ha*
received the benefit of scientific study
and researches, and now babies are
ta be taken in hand and a groat
improvement is to be effected. It
u now proposed, by science, to in*
crease the size of the lmm«n race, by
removing, from its infant, growth,
the pressure of atmosphere which
constrains and represses it. The
idea arose from a successful experi¬
ment at enlarging violets by placing
them in balloons to be liftrd where
they might blossom’ in thinner air.
A horticulturist of the suburbs of
Yeraaiiles, in studying the physiolo¬
gy of the \cgetable kingdom, con¬
ceived tint the Smallness of certain
planf-—the violet, for example—was
owing to an atmospheric pressure
too great for their delicate organs.
Having fixed this i 1*a in hia mind
the florist conceived the notion of
putting his plan into p notice. Pro*
cidmg himself with a small balloon
rendered sufficiently tight to prevent
the escape of any gas, he launched
it into the air, having attached to
it a silken cold twelve hundred me.
ter* long. Instead < f a car the bal¬
loon sustained a flower pot of Parma
violets, This experiment has been
going on about two months with
the most wonderful result, in the
shape of violets as large as a Bengal
roses. Balloons for amplifying the
infant violets of our compressed
race were the natural and immediate
suggestion. We have not yet heard
the particulars of the first experi¬
ment, however.
A PROXY WIDOW:
Nina Van Zaudt says she feels
herself a w t-low, and now makes hoi
visits to her proxy husband clad in
all the black habiliments ot woe. It
is doubtful whether her August an.
predates the promptitude with which
shesurrendeis him to the rope. All
in all Mrs Spies or Miss Van Zaudt
occupies a unique position—a wife
who hasn’t been married and a wid¬
ow whose husband is alive. At any

WHERE MR D.vYIS IS AN
ISSUE.
Several Northern papers continue to
assert that ex-presideut Davis is the
leading issue of the South.
While Mr. Davis will never cease to
be an object of love and veneration to
the people of tlie South, no man who
has occupied the exalted position in af¬
fairs and in his people’s hearts that
Mr. Davis dees, has ever been less an
issue with the people.
The government has debarred Mr
Davis as an issue, and the Southern
people have not attempted in any way
to rehabilitate Mr. Davis as a citizen.
The Republican papers are aware of
these facts; but tlicir malice towards
Mr. Davis, aiul their desire to regain
power through the baser passions and
prejudices of men, cause them to will¬
fully misrepresent the South as well as
Mr. Dayis.
And they reckon with their host; for
if it were necessary for the people of
the South to ignore Mr. Dasvis ns an
individual, and as the concrete expon¬
ent of the cause for whioh these peo¬
ple risked all but honor, to continue
the Democratic party or any other par¬
ty in power, then, indeed, would Re¬

MRS HANCOCK WAS NOT FOR
SALE
Mrs. Hancock says that once when
I the general felt called upon to entertain
half a dozen Sioux chieftains she help¬
ed him in Ins tn»k by playing tho piano
for them. Tho music evidently had
power to please if not to “soothe the
savage,” for immediately negotiations
commenced through an interpreter to
purchase the “big captain’s” squaw
along with the “music table.” Deads
robes nml blankets were first ofForcd
for the cxchaiule. When the “big
captain” rejected these, supposing the
induce incuts not sufficient, they added
ponies to an increased number of robes
and trincots of nil kinds. Their in¬
dignation and dissatisfaction were ap¬
parent ami quickly made evident by
their leaving the house in Indian file,
without a glance here or there, seem¬
ing deaf to the interpreter’s appeal to
return.
