my gratitude for the good will and kindness
which that body had, shown to me. Its no.

was my ambition to take an active part
from which am now excluded-in the great
struggle going on for the restoration of good
Government, of peace and prosperity to our
country. But have been caught up by the
overwhelming tide which is bearing us on to
a great political change, and find myself un-
able to resist its pressure. You have also
given me a copy of the resolutions put forth
by the Convention, showing its position upon
all the great questions which now agitate the
country. As the presiding officer Of that
Convention, am familiar with their scope
and import As one of its members, am a
party to their terms. They are in accord
with my views, and stand upon them in the
contest upon which we are now entering, ano
I shall strive to carry them ont in future

CAPITAL $1,000, 900.

Its Products and Trade-its Relation to Agrieul-
tue--its Interests, Policy, Character ana
Claims to Public Confidence.
It is an admitted fact that a concentrated
commercial fertilizer, of real excellence, Is aii
essential adjunct to successful farming IN the
Southern and Middle States.
It will be admitted that with the crude ele-
ments of fertility afforded by nature, it is with
in the scope of human ability, aided by cap'ta''
enterprise and science, to furnish concentrated
commercial fertilizer Of real excellence
1t is of the highest Importance that such
fertilizer should be furnished at the Lowest pos
sible COST in order that the outlay required may
not preclude its general and liberal aPpt'cat'om.
1t is also necessary to the general use OF such
an article that the character, responsibility ana
facilities of the producers should be such as to
afford a reasonable guarantee that the fertilizer
brought into market may be relied upon for
present and continued excellence.
1t is tue that many farmers are deferred from
the use of fertilizers, other than Peruvian Gu
ano, by want of confidence in their continued
reliability, though convinced Of their present
value They adhere to Peruvian Guans though
its price be too high to justify its liberal use,
and though experience teaches them its defects,
which are manifest in its tendency to produce
excessive growth without corresponding yield;
in its tendency to exhaustion; in its injurious
effects in time of severe drought, &C., all OF
which result from the incorporation OF its ele-
| ments.
This want of confidence is not unnatural, and
arises from two principal causes: First-Fer'
tilizers have been placed upon the markets and
commended to farmers, which either from ig'
norance or inability of the producers, or from
less excusable causes, have proved from the
first or after while of little no value, to the
serious loss of the consumer, both of time and
money.
Secondly-Disastrous seasons occur, in which
crops fail from the Intervention Unnatural causes
in which event the consumer is predisposed tt
ascribe the failure in part at least to the partl
cular fertilizer used, however excellent it may

DaSs.
The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-11-19

The Republican says that the Democratic
party of Louisiana think that they have a
natural right to the offices. Well, that is Just
what they think, simply because there is no
other party in Louisiana than the Democratic
party. The Democratic party are the people
of the State-the whole people; and they, and
they alone have right to say who shall fill
the offices, and who shall administer the laws.
There is a small squad of carpet-baggers who
call themselves the Republican party, but as
they number only 265 in the city of New
Orleans, and not more than thousand in the
whole State, then claim to consideration is
simply ridiculous. Moreover, they are the
enemies of the State and of the people, and
they are so regarded by the public. They are
intruders, who came here for no other pur-
pose than to Cypress and annoy the commu-
nifty. 1t may be disagreeable to them to
know that their reign is coming to an end,
but it is fact nevertheless.
