Fertilizers.

The use of the above fertilizers is particularly
Recommended, being compounded of the richest
Pacific, Phosphate and Peruvian Guanos, and
Bone and Animal matter rendered soluble and
highly ammoniated, making the most concentra
ted and profitable fertilizers in use for Wheat
Corn, Oats &C., giving rapid and vigorous growth
firm and substantial stalk-large head, and
plump kernel, and is in many respects greatly
preferable to the best Peruvian Guano, being
free of the firing qualities of that article.
riAll that is asked for these Phosphate Guanos
is q trial, to convince any observing farmer of
their superiority to the Low PRICED and LONG TIME
articles no offered to the public, and that he
cannot afford i'll justice to himself to do without
them.

They must not forget however that it requires
money, and good deal of it to prepare the
grounds and buildings and to conduct the Fair
properly, and they must make up their minds to
provide what is necessary without delay.
Much has been done and is doing to prepare
for the next Fair, and if Fifteen Hun1red Dollars
can be furnished promptly the preparations can
be completed by the time appointed.
We don't ask it as gift, but as a loan for
which we offer undoubted security, and we shall
be greatly surprised and disappointed if it is not
forthcoming.

million Of revenue. This we can carry, with.
out any general distress, although districts
which have heretofore been practically exempt
from taxation, aud now are taxed according
to their property, will find the burden heavy.
Taxation in these days, however, is an afiic-
ition to which one submits with patience, and
if we were inclined to repine, We might find
substantial consolation in the fact, that South
FCarolina-with a negro popular majority, a
reconstruction government, o swarm of place

Radical Legislaturcs-is still able to pay a
rate Of taxation which will meet all her liabi-

Taxation I'm the State.

We take the following extract from the
Charleston Duly Ne~s fthe 10th inst
*** We must not forget that it is our duty
MS well as to our advantage, to make any
reasonable sacrifice to pay the interest on the
State debt, debt fur which we are AS fully
responsible now as we were ten years ago
This must be done for the sake of our own
reputation, and it will undoubtedly rebound
to our commercial and financial advantage
And in looking at the round one million of
dollars which are to be raised during the fiscal
year, VIC must also remember that the whole
system of taxation has been changed, and
changed for the better. rer
The theory Of the, present tax law is 10 bring
every class of property on tho tax list at its
bona .Jfde valuation. This system should sub
ject to taxation many millions of dollars which
under tie oit F!aa gave nothing TO tic treasury
We can hardly hope that tine returns this year
will show tho whole taxable property of the
State, so puzzing is the ambiguity of the Tax
bill, and SO great is the ignorance and the In
experience of the different assessors But in
year or two the wheels will run more
smoothly, and then, we venture to say, one
million Of dollars will be raised with as n,ucl,
ease as half million was raised two years
ago. i
1t now romans to endoavor to form some
idea of what our State taxation should be this
year, assuming that the amount to be obtained
is one million of dollars. 1ai
According to the census Of 1860, the value
Of the real and personal property in the State
was sb4a, ,ooo, 900, and if we eldeduct from this

~ THE TR1BUNE's ANSWER
We heartily approve the nomination Of Gen.
eral Longstreet by our new President as. a Il
indication that men are not to be forever
excluded from office hecause they were engaged
ip the hate rebellion. That is all the signif-
canoe there is in this noniinatiun-aIl thai,
makes 1t important. We do not know that
Gencrai Longstreet wants or vii! accent the
Office, and arc quito sure that he never sought
it. Yet it seems to us highly desirable that
Southern men who arc now Uuion;sts, and
acting heartily with the party which elected
Gen. Grant to the Presidency, should j.. he
t,ld bY that party that they can never,hoid
Office, because they were once rebels. 1t seems
to us to ostracise our friends because thoy
wcro, formerly our Foes, woald be equally l.s.
generous and unwisc.
AS to those Southern l~yaIis's, who fought"
&c, We presume they vii! receive ut least nine
teen out of every twenty Offices that there arc
to be given in the South; and we think this
ought to satisfy them. To ipsist that they
shall have the last icrunib, is virtually to say
that VIC will receive no accessuns to our marty
form those who were ever rebels for men can
not with reason be expected to Join party
which gives them notice that no degree of
ability, Integrity or efficiency, on their part
can entitlc them to its confidence or its honors

you should always treat your enemy SO as to
make it easy for him to become your friend

think with him have improved upon this
