A FERTILIZER

Producing all the immediate effects of the best
Peruvian Guano, without the danger of destroying
a CROP by its coming in contact with the seed and
being lasting in thssoil years after the Guano is
exhausted II is puYerisel TO fine powder,
ready for use No loss of time and labor in break-
ing Jumps, screening, &C.
Phosphate of Lime is the only element in Gu
auo, or any ether Fortillizer, from which perma
nent effect can be eXpected hence that Fertilizer
which contains the most Phosphate, with suffici-
ency OF ammonia to produce all the effect that can
be had from Ammonia, is the best, inasmuch as
more than that is waste.
N.B-To lest the relative value of this Ferti-
lzcr, use in quantity and all other respects same
as Peruvian GuauO.
Packed in strong bags of $50 pounds. Barrels
average 275 lbs. each.
NY Super Phosphate Of Lime Is not an oIperi.
n,ent Four years trial of it upon all kinds OF
crops and soils, has proved its value each yoar,
and that it is Of uniform quality.
Try it side by side with No. Peruvian Guano
upon all your crops, and see which is cheapest,
safest and most lasting. AS TOP DRESSING
upon Grain or Grass early in the spring, it "will
pay"
Certificates, dated from the first year of the Int
PRODUCTION of my Fertilizer, each year since,
might be added but the most satisfactory Ger
ticate is for every Farmer to try it for himself
Sold by the Dealers in Agricultural Implc-
ments in the City, and at l22 West street, corner

bic for the following: We chronicled on
Tuesday the killing of an elephant, recently
escaped from menagerie. We regret TO
learn that before he was killed he did great
damage, and utterly ruined one planter in
Kinds county. Passing through his planta-
ton, the huge beast came across two stacks
of fodder-one of these stacks be devoured
instantly, while he hoisted the other on bis
trunk, and bearing it before him, as shield,
he marched on in solitary grandeur. He
soon reached point where the negroes OF
the plantation were taking their dinner,
when the unusual sight that met their eyes
SO frightened them that they all turned
whihI When their fear subsidized, finding
that they were all white men and women,
they deliberately walked off, and left the
owner of the plantation without solitary
darkey! The remarkable phenomenon may
sound rather strange to the incredulous, but
if any one doubts the truth of the statement,
a highly respectable gentleman of this city
is fully prepared to substantiate it in every
particular. We have often heard Of persons
hair being suddenly turned, from sudden
and overpowering fear but do not remember
before to have heard of an Africans skin
turning white from the same cause hlle
we sincerely sympathize with the owner Of
the negroes in his severe loss, we earnestly
hope that this remarkable case will be
thoroughly investigated by philosophers.
