GUANo.-This highly valuable manure is excl
ting much interest among the farmers of our coun-
try. Thousands of pounds are still sent into our
State. Those who have used it seem to be much
hattered at the result of the application, and con-
tinue to enlarge the amount, upon their farms
Some contend that it may be applied to hood or
cultivated crops while others say that it should
rather serve a basis of improvement, by enrich
ing the land to it to produce such green
crops may be turned in and made fertilizers.
Weare much inclined to agree with the latter class,
for as it is so highly VOLATILE when applied to crops
which require the frequent string of the SOIL these
volatile principles must to great extent, pass off,
before affordng much nourishment to the crops.
But the benefit which guano has conferred upon
the agricultural interest of the country has not
been direct alone it is not confined to the increased
product arising from its application, but many farm
ers have been greatly benefited by guano, who
have perhaps never applied more than one hundred
pounds. The greatimprovement which they have
seen to arise from the application Of so small a
quantity of substance to their crops has had the eff
feet to cause them to look about and see the many
means which they have around them for enrichno
their lands and of which they have never awaited
themselves before. There are many rich fields in
many parts Of the country, which but for guanc
would have still been barren, failing to produc,
enough to pay the owner for their cultivation

A DoDGE. When Deacon B. got
into bad position, he was very expert
at crawling out of il. Though very
quick tempered, he was one Of tho best
deacons in the world. He would not In
a sober moment, utter an oath, or any
thing like one for his weight in cider.
At the close Of a rainy day, he was
milking upon knoll in his barn-yard |;
on one side Of which was dirty slough,
and on the other nn old buck, that, in
consideration Of his usually quiet dispo-
sition, was allowed to run with the cows.
The deacon was piously humming /" Old
Hundred" and had just finished the line
ending with "exalied high" when The
ram, obcying sudden impulse TO be
aggressive, gave him blow from be-
hind that sent him up short distance,
only to fall directly into the slough,
where the dirty water was deep enough
to give him thorough immersing.
As he erawIed out, and before be rose
from his hands and knees, be looked
over his shoulders at tho rum, and then
vociferaied--
You d--d old cuss !" but on looking
around and seeing one Of his ncighbors
at the bars, looking at him, he added in
the same breath, =" if ! may be allowed
the expression."-[Carpet Bag.
