Gov. J. H. Hammond, of South Carolina, who 

 raised the above seed, testifies, under date of Nov. 

 2<i, IS.')!, that he does not recollect any variety of 

 the Imphee which 4s iaferior to Uie Sorgho, while 

 many varieties fiave a larger stulk, yiehleil more 

 juice, ami marked a higher degree on the sac- 

 ch^.rometer; and ma letter to the undersigned, of 

 Jan. 13th, 186S, Gov. Hammond says: '• I think 

 these seeds well worth distributing. They pro- 

 duce a Sugar Cane at least equal to the Sorgho in 

 all respects, and some of them are twice the size. 

 1 am inclined to think we shall ultimately find 

 several of the varieties (ripening at different peri- 

 od.s) superceding the Sorgho altogether. I plant 

 this year 60 acres of the cane. Of these, fbur will 

 be planted in Sorgho, and the remainder in 

 Imphee." 



A supplement to "The Sorgho and Imphee," containing the 

 American experiments of 1S57, with J. S. Lovering's statement 

 of his successful manufacture of Brown and AVhite Sugar from 

 the Sorgho, will accompany the book. Address
