SORGHUM SAGAR AT LAST.
A very few months ago, the question
"Will Sorghum sugar crystalize?" was
ranked with those of "will saltpetre ex-plode?"
or "is there a perpetual motion?"
A few specimens ol sugar whose true crys-talization
was disputed, and which parties
averse to the success of the Sorghum con-tended
was merely glucose, or similar to
the mock sugar of grapes, was all that had
been presented to the public in this coun-tiy,
despite the enormous hopes entertain-ed
of the new saccharine contributor. It
was to be culiivatea, but only for syrup
and feed. Fortunately it was remarkably
valuable for these alone.
But just at a time when Sorghuo>. ttuck
is down to its lowest ebb, we aro .startled
by the indispuiable fact thai Joseph S.
Levering, of Oakhill. Philadelphia county,
having grown the Sorghum and brought
the full force ol scientific analysis to bear
upon its results, has established that not
only will the new cane yield crystalized su-gar,
but lliat .he process is so inexpensive
as to make it very profitable, while the
trouble and skill involved are, after certain
simple preparations have been observed,
actually no greater than what may be re-quired
in making any ordinary dish. With
a very liule practice any farmer may make
his own sugar.
A portion of the results of Mr. Loverin<-'s
experiments is belore us, in the shape ot
boxes of sugar of different qualities, and a
large vial of the molasses. While so near-j
Iy resembling ordinary cane sugar that it
may be used for any of tiie purposes of the
latter, we remark that this, from the sor-ghum,
has a rich, pleasant flavor, almost at
superior to that Irom ihe cane, as hock is
superior to cider. It is like that of maple
sugar, but more delicate. Certain it is,
that sorghum sugar would vanish incon-ceivably
sooner than cane, in a family where
children abound. The molasses is also of
a remarkably pleasant taste.
Sir. Lowering'8 first experiment was to
ascertain rroui purified cane juice, with tie
|n.l,irisco|;e. the existence of crysialized su-garano
iis proportion, This done, he had
si ill to discover the means of practically

Astonishing Performance of an Anuri-can
before Gueen Victoria.
On the 13th of January, at Windsor, Mr.
J. S. Rarey, from the United States of A-merica,
had the honor of exhibiting before
Her Majesty, the Prince Consort, and the
Royal Family and suite, in the riding house,
his miraculous power over the horse. Sev-eral
animals were selected as subjects of
his experiments. He commenced with a
wild colt. 18 months old, belonging to ihe
Prince Consort, which was brought from
Shaw Farm, and which had been chosen
by Colonel Honorable A. N. Wood for the
occasion. After being alone with the ani-mal
for about an hour and a half, the royal
parly entered, and found Mr. Rarey sitting
on his back, without holding the rein, the
horse standing perfectly quiet. Mr. Ra-rey
then made a few remarks in regard to
his great experience in the treatment of this
noble animal; a drum was afterwards band-ed
to Mr. Rarey, which he beat with fury
whilst silting on the horse's back, without
the colt exhibiting any signs of fear, the
royal party afterwards withdrew for a few
minutes, and on their return found the ani-mal
lying down, and Mr. Rarey knocking
his hind legs together, one of which lie put
against his fare. Afterwards a restive
horse, selected from Mr. Anderson's sta-bles,
in London, which Rarey said he had
belore handled, was placed at one end ol
the riding-house alone. Mr. Rarey went
to the oilier end, and at his command the
horse walked quietly up to him. He then
made the horse lie down in the presence ol
the Queen, when Mr. Rarey crawled bf-tweeu
his hind lesrp, Hid over him iu vari-ous
ways. Mr. Rarey ■liui roiled the horse
on his back. The horso was afterwards
placed in various positions, in which it
stood without holding, and without a bridle.
A third horse, selected by Mr. Meyers, the
riding master, as a very nervous animal,
was theu brought in, and in a few minutes
afterwards it was made by Mr. Rarey to do
all which had been dont by the oilier hors-es.
At the conclusion ol this exhibition
of Mr. Rarey'a wonderful power over the
horse, his Royal Highness the Prince Con-sort,
expressed to Mr. Ifarey his gratifica-tion
and thanks. The secret has been en-trusted
to Major General Richard Airey, in
confidence, who has pronounced that there
is nothing in the treatment tut what any
horseman would approve of.
KANSAS AFFAIRS.
Message from the President of the TT. S.
To the Senate ami \IIc-uu of Representa-tives
of the United States.
I have received from J. Calhonn, Esq.,
President of the late constitutional conven-tion
of Knnsas, a copy, duly certified by
himsell, of the constitution framed by that
body, with the expression of a hope that I
would submit the same to the considera*
lion of Congress, "with the view of the ad-mission
of Kansas into the Union as an in-dependent
State." In compliance with
this request, I herewith transmit to Con-gress,
for their action, ihe constitution of
Kansas, with the ordinance respecting ihe
public lands, as well as the letter of Mr.
C'alfioun, dated at Leconipton on the 1-iih
ultimo, by which ihcy were accompanied.
Having received but a single copy ol the
constitution and ordinance, 1 scud this to
the Senate.
THE STRAWBERRY.
We lake the following seasonable direc-tions
to the lovers and glowers ofthe Straw-berry,
from the January number of the A-merican
Cotton Planter, Montgomery, Ala.,
the horticultural I'epartmcnt of which is
edited b\ Co! C. A. IVabody :
I'/te Strawberry lied.—There is no bet-ter
time IB the year lo plant oul Strawber-ry
Vines than this nonit-, (January.)
'Flic pistillate varieties shuiild be planted
in the vicinity oi the st.nuinates. llovcy's
Seedling is a pislilate, and will not pro-duce
fruit without being impregnated with
a stauimate. Every tenth row of stami-uates
will impregnate trie Hovey's well.—
our new liautbois is a staininale, and is a
good iiiipregnator tor pistillate varieties.—
extracting It. The result of the first expe- [ 1'his plant being a vigorous grower, re-riment
was discouraging. ••A dark, vireidl-quirea more room than most Strawberry
mass, apparently a cu/nit moitmnn." was
certainly not very promising. It stood six
days wii Soul the sign ot a erysul, when it
was placed over a line and kept warm four
days longer, when there was found "a
pretty good crop of suit crystals, the whole
very similar to the inelmla from Cuba,
but of darker color." This tesult reminds
ns ol what was said some months ago by
one familiar with French sorgho-culture,
I hat the Americans did not boil the juice
long enough, 'and that the first man who
made sugar Irom it, did so by neglecting
Ins kettles and leaving tlieui to boil in
sheer despair.
Seven experiments gave the result that
an acre will yield at least 1,460,22 lbs. of
sugar and 74.iiy gallons molasses from
1,826 gallons juice. When it is borne in
mind that in many cases twice this amount
of juice has been raised to ihe acre, and
thai Mr. Lo\ding's loss by impelled uiach-
IIK ry must have amounted to ten per cent.,
it will be seen thai the sorghum is even
more valuable than has been supposed by
its most sanguine friends. It is, farther*
moie, very evident that experiment, and a
edaeof the mercantile business, that he can

A Dove Story.
A gentleman ot this oily, who has a dove
cot at his residence at the West end, rela
tes the following incident as having occur-red
last week.^ln the cot where was a male
and female dove and two squabs Themulc
squab having died, the elderly dove drove
from his nest his female mate, and promo-ted
to his bed and boa id the young female
squab, pecking at and driving from his cot
the female dove. Finally upon one ecca-oion.
when the female appeared at lie door
of the cot, the male sailed out, pecking at
her and dro'e her away. The persecuted
mother flew down to a perch below, where,
with her head under her wing, she remain-ed
for a short time, and then tell suddenly
to the ground. The inmates of the house,
who had witnessed the proceeding, imme-diately
went out and ascertained that the
Possibly she died
A great delusion seems to pervade the
public mind iu relation to the condition of
parties in Kansas. This arises from the
difficulty of inducing '.be American people
to realize the fact that any portion ot them
should be in a state of-rebellion against the
government under which they live. When
we speak oi the atlairs ot Kansas, we are
apt to refer merely to the existence of two
violent political parties in that Territory,
divided on the question ol slavery, just as
we speak of such parties in the States.
This presents no adequate idea of the true
state of the case. The dividing line there
is not between two political parties, both
acknowleding the lawful existence of the
government; but between those who are
loyal to this government and those who
have endeavored to destroy its existence by
force and by usurpation—between those
who sustain and those who have done all
in their power to overthrow the territorial
government established by Congress. This
government they would long since have
subverted had it not been p.-otected from
their assaults by the troops of the United
State*. Such has been the condition of af-fairs
since my inauguration. Cver since
that period a large portion of the people of
Kansas have been in a state of rebellion
against Ihe government, with a military-leader
at their head of a u.ost turbulent
anel dangerous character. They have nev-er
acknowledged, but have constantly re-nounced
and defied the guverniiu ut to
which they owe allegiance, and have been
all the time in a state ol resistence against
its authority. They have all the time been
endeavoring to subvert it ami to establish a
revolutionary government, under the so-culled
Topeka constitution, in its stead.
Even at this very moment the Topeka Leg-i.-
iature are in session. Whoever has read
the correspondence ol Governor Walker
with the Suite Department! recently coin
inunicaied to the Senate, will be convinced
that this picture is not overdruwu. lie
always protested againsl the withdrawal ol
any portion of the military force ot the
United States from the Territory, deeming
its presence absolutely necessary tor the
preservaticn of the regular government and
ihe execution ot the laws. In his very
first despatch to the Secretary of State,
dated June 2, 1^57, he says: "The most
alarming movement, however, proceeds
from the assembling on the Uth June ot
the SO-ealled Topeka Legislature, with a
view to the enactment of an entire code of
laws. O! course, it will be my endeavor
to prevent such a result, as it would lead
to inevitable and disastrous collision, and.
in fact, renew the civil war in Kansas."
'Phis was with difficulty prevented by the
eflbrts of Governor Walker; but soon there-after,
on the 14th of July, we find him re-questing
Gee. Hartley to fumiah him a reg-iment
of dragoons to proceed to the city ot
Lawrence—and this tor the reason that he
had received authentic inie lligcnce, veri-fied
by his own actual observation, that a
dangerous rebellion had occurred, "involv-ing
an open defiance of the laws and the
establishment of an insurgent guvernmeut
iu that city.
In the Governor's despatch of July 15th
he informs the Secretary of State "that
this movement at Lawrence was the begin-ning
of a plan, orig naling iu that city, to
organize insui rsction throughout the Ter-ritory;
and especially in ail towns, cities or
counties where the Republican party have
a majority. Lawrence is the hoi bed of all
the abolition movements in this Territory.
It is the town established by the abolition
societies ot the Fast, and whilst there are
respectable people there, it '.» filled by a
considerable number of mercenaries, who
are paid by abolition societies lo perpetuate
ami diffuse agitation throughout Kansas,
acd prevent a peaceful settlement of this
question. Having failed in inducing their
own so-called Topeka Slate Legislature to
organize this insurrection, Lawrence has
commenced it herself, and, if not arrested,
the rebellion will ex'end throughout ihe
Territory
And again: "In order to send this com-munication
imincdiati ly by mail, I must
close by assuring you that ihe spirit of re-bellion
pervades the great mass of the rc»
publican party of this Territory, instigated
as I entertain no dobut they are, by eastern
societies, havimrjn view results most dis-astrous
to the government and lothe Union;
State conservatives into submission. This
is proved by recent atroritiea committed
on such men by Topekaites. The speedf
location cf large bodies of troops here, with
too batteries; is necessary. The Lawrence
insurgents await the development of thit
new revolutionary military orgatirjauon,
&c, Ac.
In the Governors despatch of July t?th,
be says that " General Lane and his etarT
everywhere deny the authority of the terri-torial
laws, and counsel a total disregard ot
these enactments."
Without making further quotation* of a
similar character rroa other despatches of
Cov. Walker, it app»ars by a referenre to
Mr. Stanton'e communication lo Gen. Cass,
of the 9th of December last, that the ••im-portant
step of railing the Legislature to-gether
was taken after I [he] had become
satisfied that the election ordered b? the
convention on the 21st instant could not be
conducted without collision and bloodshed."
So intense was the disloyal feeling among
the enemies of the government established
by Congress, that an eletion which a forded
them an opportunity, if m the majority, of
making Kansas a tree-State accord ng to
their own professed desire, could not bo
condoled without coliseion and blood-ched
!
The truth is, that, np till the present
moment, the Connies of ihe existing gov-erment
si ill adhere ;o their Topeka revoln-tionary
constitution and govermenl. The
very first paragraph of the messace ol"Gov.
Kobison, dated on the 7th of December,
to the Topeka legislature now asarmtiled at
Lawrence, contains an open defiance of the
constitution and laws of the United States.
The governor says: "Tho convention which
framed the constitution at Topeka nrigina.
ted with the peoble of Kansas Territory-
They have adopted and ratified the same
twice by a direct vote, and also indirectly
through] two eletions of State officers and
members of the Slate lepisUture. Yet is
has pleased the administration to regard
ihe whole proceeding revolutionary."
TMl Topeka government, adhered to
with such treasonable pertinariy, is a gov-ernment
in direct opposition to the exifct-government
prescribed and recognised by
Congress. It h a usurpation of the same
character as it would be for a portion of the
people of any State of the Union to under-take
to establish a seperaie jrovernment,
within its limits, for the purpiso ol redress-ing;
emy grievance, real or imuginaiy, of
which they might complain, against the
legitimate State government Such a
principle if carried into execution, would
destroy nil lawful iBihorily and produce
universal anarchy.
From this sUiieinent offsets, the reason
becomes palpable why the enemies of the
government authorized by Congress have
refused lo vole tor delegates to the Kansas
constitutional convention, and also after-wards
on the question ot slavery tubnutud
by il to the i e. pie. It is because ihey
have ever refused i.o sanctiou or recognine
my other constitution than thai framed at
Topeka.
Had the whole Lecompton Const.tution
been subtuillcd to the people, the adhe-rents
of th in organization would doubtless
have voted against it, because, if, snessasV*

people? W,»re they silently and pa-tiently
to submit to the Topeka usurpation
or adopt the necessary measures lo estab-lish
a constitution under the authority uf
the organic law of Coiigrcis I*
That this law n cognised the rigbt of
the people of the Territory, without any
enabling act from Congress lo form a State
eonsiitution, is too clear for argnnerit.—
For Congress "to eave the people of the
Territory perfectly lice," in framing their
eoiisiituiion, "to form and regulate thcir
domestic institutions in their own w av,
subject only to the con-titutiou of the
United States;" and then to say that they
shall not be permitted to prncued and frame
a constitution in tl oir own way, v.-itlmut
mi etpseu aotberity from Congress, ap>-
pears t" be almost a ebntredicrloh in temts.
It would be much more possible lo con
tend that Congress had no power lo pa«s
such an eoaltlOS ac>, than to ar(rue*that the
people of a Territory might be kept out of
the Union for an indefinite period, a';d un-til
it might please Congress to permit them
to exercise the lie hi of self-government
'This would be lo adopt not "iheir ,>wit
way,"but the way which Congress &:iglil
prescribe.
It is impossib'e that any people eould f
have proceeded wiih more regularity iu th«i
formation of s constitution than tie peo-ple
ot Kansas have done. It wan neces-sary,
firjf, to ascertain, whether it waa ths
desire of lhe peop.e lo be relieved from
their territonol dependence ami establish• 'L
State government. For this purpose, the ,
territorial legislature, in 1855, passed a
law "for taking the sense ol the people «>f
this Territory upon the expediency >f call-ing
a convention to form a State constitu-tion"
at the general 1 lection to be held iq
October, I8fi0. The "sense of ihe pcopV*
was accordingly t. ken. and they decided
in favor of a eonveution. It is true licit '
at this election the enemies of the territo-rial
government did not vole, because it.ey
were then engaged at Topeka, wiilmul the •
slightest pretext of lawful authority, in -
Irauung a constitution of their own for the
purpose of sub\eriing ihe territorial govern-ment.
