GUANo.-At the last meeting of the Farm
ers Institute, New York, a paper, prepared
by Mr.. Nash upon the guano trade, was read.
There are at times, FIVE hundred ships wait
lag for loads of guano at the Chincha Islands.
The writer thinks that the supply will be ex-
hausted in few years. Twenty thousand
tons are sometimes loaded in a single day.
There is not drop Of rain and but little dew
at the guano islands. The guaDo is now taken
TO every civilized country in the world. II
Is estimated that the guano is two hundred
and fifty feet deep Oh a part Of one of the
island, and is so hard that il has 10 be broken
with picks. 1t is dug by coolies and State pris-
oners. The rock is the red sandstone variety
The opinion Of the writer is that the guano 4.
not all composed of bird dung, but of COM
position that was lifted up with the rock from
the bottom of the ocean, The bird dung
guano is only the small part on the surface.
The right TO remove guano is held by Gibbs
Bright of London. ...

HoS. JoHS LKrcHER.-Mr. Letcher, our
representative in Congress, has on several
occasions, indicated his purpose to decline a
reelection TO Congress next spring. We are
well aware that a seat In Congress is no place
10 provide Tor the educ alton and support of a
growing family, But in times like these
when questions Of vital interest to the nation
are constantly before the councils of the
country, IT Is essential that men of experience.
OF talent, and OF purity and frmness of char
acter, should be commissioned to meet them
Mr. Letcher has acquired the reputation of a
fearless and determined enemy Of every de-
scrIption of profigacy and corruption. lie is
an eYes0re to the cormorants who invest the.
capitol. de Is representative Of iufiexible
integrity, oothodox political opinion, and bold,
independent and fearless action, added TO an
industry that never flags or grows tired Such
man belongs to his country, especially when
that country is rocked and agitated by every
phase of fanaticism and beset by dangers
within and without. From such considera-
tions we, in behalf of his constituents in Au-
gusta county, at this early day, earnestly en-
ter our protest to his retiring at the close of
his present term from the position be has 90
much honored for the past six years. We are
sure each one of our Democrats cotenpors-
ries in the District, and Mr. L Is constituents
in their counties, will join with us in a protest
to any such action on the part Of our repre-
sentative in Congress. We want his services
In the council of the nation for another term,
and then We may have use for him in auo.
ther, and yet more responsible theatre. We
are almost sure Mr.. l.. will yield to the sim
cere wish of constituency that has ever
shown itself true and faithful TO a true and
faithful representative, and still further lend
TO the country his valuable services, although
1t may be lily suited 10 his domestic aff airs TO
do so.
We claim it as right to thus protests right
suggested by our devotion to the honor and
reputation Of a District which occupies q pc
euliar position in the esteem of the country.
and our respect for the past and present dignity
and talent of its representatives We indulge
the confident hope that Mr.. L will consent 10
serve US another term in Congress -.Staun-

after she was divorced from her husband,
married her Some time having elapsed, his
lordship was surprised at not receiving a chal-
Iepee from her former husband. AID being
anxious to make reparation, sent the following
offer of satisfaction " Sir: Having done you
the greatest injury that one man can do au-
you the satisfaction which one gentleman
owes to another in such circumstances. The
husband replied: I" My lord, in taking of my

- Thackeray, on his first visit to this
country, was introduced in Charleston, s. c.,
TO Mrs C, one Of the leaders Of society
there. Thinking to be witty, he said:
81 am happy to meet you, Mrs. c.; I've
heard, NJ ldam, that you were a fast woman" 4"
"Oh, Mr.. Thackeray," she replied, with one
Of her most fascinating smiles, }" we must not
believe all we hear i heard SIR, that von
acere a gentleman.
The great English wit admitted afterwards
that he had the worst Of it.
The above is going the rounds of the coun-
try papers, and we will bet sixpence was

out Of {" the rural districts would think of
attributing such nonsense "to the great
English w.t. or of putting such vulgar rude
ness in the mouth of a Charleston, or any

lp7 A good story is told of a tall, raw.
b0ned fellow, who went into a market house
and seeing large hog on exhibition was
nightly struck with it
4 swear" said he, that's a great hog.
l swear L never saw finer looking one in nv
life L swear what short legs he's got I
swear
q Look here, my friend" said a little dry-
looking individual, trotting up, "you must
not swear so -
swear L should like to know why" said
tie hard swearer, with an ominous look
because, said the little man, swearing
Is agln the law, and / shall have to commit
you
care you justice of the peace ?" inquired
the swearer
g Yes, sir" was the reply.
"Well, L swear" said the profane one, "I
am more aStonished at that than / was about
the hog"
