The Daily Dispatch: January 26, 1865., [Electronic resource], Paris letter — writers. (search)
Paris letter — writers. A Paris letter, published in the Northern papers two weeks ago, furnishes a report that France and England intend, after the 4th of March next, to recognize Lincoln as the President of the Northern States, and to recognize the South as an independent nation. We have not a word to say against the after one of these flagellations. Of course, it would not be expected that these high and mighty potentates should be ignorant of the purposes of England and France towards this benighted hemisphere. France and England are going to recognize both Lincoln and Jeff. Davis. Napoleon has told the letter-writers so in one of thoFrance and England are going to recognize both Lincoln and Jeff. Davis. Napoleon has told the letter-writers so in one of those cozy, confidential tete a-tetes which they have over their wine in the hotel Pouissin.--What an artless, gossipping old gentleman! And how abominable that his confidence should be so abused! But perhaps it is their sweet simplicity which has been victimized. Perhaps the venerable Slyboots was in his cups, and was joyously ch

Sorghum — time to harvest. --After nine years experience in this cereal, I have arrived at the following conclusions: That it attains a point of maturity, beyond which it deteriorates. That point is the shedding off the blooms and the formation of seed. The maturity of seed detracts starch and sugar from the plant. Glucose or grape sugar is manufactured in France from starch for sweetening wine. So there must be a lot of cane sugar and glucose sustained in maturing seed. The Havana sugar-cane does not attain to this point of maturity at all in Louisiana. It does not bloom there, and but sparingly in the West Indies; and even there it cannot be propagated from seed. We, therefore, conclude that this cane does not arrive to the maturity that sorghum does, on commencing to seed. We conclude, also, that we can harvest two crops--one in July or August, and the other in September or October--in the same year, on the same ground, and from the same seed and roots. We made th

Poverty in France. --It is computed that there are a million of beggars and vagabonds in France. In a recent work, Hugo says there are thirteen hundred thousand peasants' cottages that have but three openings; eighteen hundred and seventeen thousand that have two--the door and one window — and, finally, three hundred and forty-six thousand cabins with only one opening — the door. And this in consequence of what is called the excise upon doors and windows. In these poor families, among tFrance. In a recent work, Hugo says there are thirteen hundred thousand peasants' cottages that have but three openings; eighteen hundred and seventeen thousand that have two--the door and one window — and, finally, three hundred and forty-six thousand cabins with only one opening — the door. And this in consequence of what is called the excise upon doors and windows. In these poor families, among the aged women and little children dwelling in these huts, how abundant is fever and disease! In Lere, in Var, and in the Upper and Lower Alps, the peasants have not even wheelbarrows; they carry the manure on their backs; they have no candles, but burn pine knots and bits of rope, soaked in pitch. And the same is the case all through the upper part of Dauphine. They make bread once in six months, and bake it with the refuse of the fields. In the winter it becomes so hard that they cut it up
