.-Eg- The LyuChhurg ryNidh discusses the Suo-
cct Of the Cuano trade in vigorous and forcbc ar
tclc taking the ground that 1t has been most stu
pidly or iraudulynty managed That there is good
reason for complaint among the farming community
this subject, is fully apparent. The agricultural
interests OF the State must, fear, suffer serious
dctrimcnt from the disappointment farmers have eN-
pcricnccd in failing 10 set their supplies of guano.-
The fall season for the Of the article will soon lie
over and but few have been fortunate to be sup
piled. Unless the article be obtained and used
to advantage by t,P-dresSing in the spring, short
wheat crop Tor next seas is much to be apprchcnded
We have, however, encouraging reports Of large
quantities Of cusuo coming and attcring accounts
have been furnished Of the advantageous Of guano
upon the wheat crop in the spring. We learn that
some Of tho farmers Of the Eastern portion of the
STATE prefer retaining, at least half Of the quantity
they obtain in the summer or tall for topdrcssing
The only chance will bc try it in that way, should
the contemplated supplies be received.
But we fully agree with our contemporary Of the
Tig.Ig that the trade has been stupidity or frau
iulcntly managed" The fact is apparent that while
the Peruvian agents ct Baltimore are announcing to
the crowd OF applicants that there is no guano on
hand. spectators in this country furnish guam
titles of 1t at an advance upon the fixed price i6
per tom OF from - 20 SEQ. How do they get its-
1t can only be obtained through the MesSrs Barreda
Of Baltimore who, it from the amount OF guano
in the possession Of spectators, oxhorbitant prices
have been most Shametuily imposed upon to say the
least OF IT, in this respect the imposition upon far

This gentleman is Of the number o! those
who look upon politics as trade. His
whole political life has been succession ol
efforts to catch the popular breeze. He has
been utterly regardless Of the public interest
and steady only in one unalterable purpose,
10 provide for himself. His peculiar selfish
ness has prompted him 10 betray every in
teres. Of public importance, and his conduct
through life has been marked by the busesI
ingratiiude TO those who have elevated and
sustained him. lie does not possess the
spirit that prompts liberal men 10 take an
interest in ali that relates to the welfare OF
society and the improvement Of the country,
and his mind is 100 narrow 10 devise liberal
things. 1t is hardly necessary for us TO
make these remarks here where he is we'll
known but for the information of those al

OF studying his real character, we would re-
mark lha, never since he has been in public
