EXCELSIOR is composed Of 700 pounds OF

uolo Phosphate Of Lime (bones dissolved in
sulphuric acid potash and soda, forming The
most concentrated, universal ana durable fer
tilizer ever offered to the fsfme.-combining su

and the ever durable tcrtizng properties OF

Excelsior is in fine dry powder prepared OK
pressly for drilling, and can be applied in an
quantity per acre, however small; and it is the
opinion Of the most prominent and calculating
farmers, after TWELVE yesrs' experience il
testing it side by side with other popular fertil-
izers, that An application Of l0J pounds of EX-
sior is equal to 200 TO 200 pounds of any other
Fertilizer or Gusno offered for sale, and there.
fore is fully 100 10 zoo per cent cheaper
NB-The very best evidence We can offer Of
the value Of Excelsior as crop grower and
fertilizer. is the fact of its being initiated and
counterteitcd. Some unprincipled manufac-
turers have actually used the trade mark fox
the purpose Of psming Off their worthles com.

AFFAIRS IN EURoPE.-We have reports of
the defeat of Prussian detachment in the
forest of FontaiDbleau, FIVE miles northeast OF
Paris, on Tuesday. On the same dsy the
Prussians bombarded the town of Epernon,
thirty miles southwest OF Paris, on the Orleans
Railway, and captured the position. ln the
southeast it Is reported that there has been
fighting near Beltort, and that the French
gained victory over detachment of the Prus,
sian army which recently crossed the Rhine at
Colmar, and was supposed to be marching TO
Lyons. At Chambon, near Orleans, lighting
is also reported as in progress. Dispatches
from the English and Russian Governments
are said TO be passing between London and St.
Petersburg aud the Prussiaa headquarters,
and it is believed that effo1ts arc being made to
procure an armistice. 1t is reported that the
Duchies of Mechlenburg. Schwerin and Meek
lenburg- Srelitz arc to be incorporated into
Prussia, and the Grand Dukes compensated
with Alsace and Lorraine. The French army
in Algeria, which numbers $1,000 men, desires
to BIO called back to the defence of France.
A Berlin despatch says that King William 5
headquarters are at Versailles, ten miles from
Paris. A Berlin dispatch says that official ad
