Suvstaute for sugar.-A substitute for what may now be deemed q luxury will, probably, be by no means unae- ~ceptabte. Honey has been proposed, honey has been adopted, but to many its peculiar flavor occasions disgust they cannot overcome; now this flavor may be removed, without any injury to >its sweetness, by very simple process. Late experiments, in chemistry, have staught the use of charcoal impurifying. Various substances; this led to it's ap- : plication 10 the purpose of freeing honey from its peculiar flavor, which has been attended with complete success. Four pounds of honey being boiled with two pounds of water, and one of we'll burnt charcoal, ona gentle fire, till the syrup began to acquire some degree of con sistencY, the charcoal was separated by |, sifaine,, tine syrup being then boiled, till it was of d proper consist ence, it was found to be as free from any disagreeable flavor as syrup of su- gar. This therefore, might he appli- cd tc every purpose for which sugar is commonly used. If tho charcoal be coarseIy powdered, should imagine q smaller quantity would as effcctually answer the purpose.
