THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST Is.
AGRAND AND AWFUL SpEcTAcLE.-During

A GRAND AND AWFUL STRENGTHENING
the recent thunderstorm phenomenon was
observed at High Bridge. A black cloud over
hung the river and the country bordering on
it, casting everything into densest gloom. AT
ter the strange, solemn silence which usually
precedes the bursting forth of tho storm, the
large drops of rain began to fall, pitting tho
dusty roads, and plasbiug into the dark
waters.
A company of ladies and gentlemen with
their children were on the balcony OF hotoi
near the bridge, looking forth upon tho over.
Swallowed landscape. Suddenly the elouuS
opened and the vivid fires shot foito' ucoou'
panied By the rolling thunder. Peal aiter pyal
followed, and flash after flash hghte9 up Tue
scene. While gazing on the rive! tne "uole
district was suddenly illuminated IN !he hos'
brilliant manner, and an immense ball Of fire
as an observer said, as large as haystack- shot
athwart the sky and fell into tho river, sending
the Kissing water in every direction, and fol-
lowed by terrific peals of thunder For some
moments the onlookers were blinded by the
brilliancy of the spectacle ladies tainted and
children screamed, and all stood appalled, as
deep darkness settled down again upon the
scene and the wild reveberations passed sullcnly
away amid the arches of the bridge,
Gazing forth upon the country to see II
damage had been done, some gentleman OBJ
served peculiar appearance in barn near
the waterworks. They approached the build
ing, and on entering, dreadful spectacle met
them. Two men half stupefed with horror,
sat shudderipg in some hay, gazing with
strained eyes on the form of third which lay
PROSTATE on the ground. One side of the
moustache was singed off, and the upper lip
was drawn up. revealing the closely clenched
teeth. The hands were clutched, aud the
eyes wido open, the pupils dilated as if struck
with sudden horror.
Reassurcd by the presence Of others, the two
1.en somewhat recovered themselves and said
in answer to inquiries, that the three had been
seated in the barn when the lightning struck
the corner of tho building, instantly killing
their companion, who was leaning against the
waIl.-N. Y Sun.

EXCELSIOR is composed of 700 pounds of
No. Peruvian Guano, and 1900 pounds Of Sol
uble Phosphate Of Lime (bones dissolved in
sulphuric acid,) potash and soda, forming the
most concentrated, universal and durable ter-
tilizer ever offered to the farmer-combining all
the stimulating, properties OF Peruvian Guano T.
and tho ever durable tertilizing properties OF
Ground Bones-supplyingan abundance OF Am
monia for any crop. and all soils, and IN per-
tectly fixed condition-not volatile and passing
off with tho first crop, as with PERUVIAN ana
other ammoni4cal guanos, but stimulating the
crop to which is is applied, and Gil succeeding
ones. giving to poor, worn out and unproduct-
i've soils new life and vigor, making, them, 10
this respect, equal to the most highly Guilt
waited lands, upon which much time and money
have beer expended.
EXCELSIOR was introduced in 1883 and we
challenge the manufacturers and vendors OF fer
tilizers, natural or artificial Gusno, to show re-
suits so invariably successful as can be shown
from its use One of the PROPRIEIORSS U-
PERINTENDS IN PERSON EVERY MIN.
UTE or ITS MANUFACTURED and there.
fore warrant every bag uniform, and to contain
ties, giving that protection to the farmer which
he does not have i'll the purchase OF any other
Guano or Fertilizer sold.
Excelsior is in fno dry powder, prepared ex-
pressly for drilling, and can be applied IN any
quantity per aero, however small; and it is the
farmers, after TWELVE years experience in
testing it side by side with other popular fertl-
izers, that an application of 100 pounds OF Ex-
sior is equal to 200 to 300 pounds of any other
Fertilizer or Guano offered for sale, and there.
fore is fully 100 to 200 per cent cheaper.
&s-The very best evidence we can offer OF
tho value of Excelsior as a crop. grower and
fertilizer, is the fact of its being initiated and
counterfeited. Some unprincipled manufsc-
turers have actually used the trade mark for
the purpose of palming off thoir worthless COM
pounds. n,,,
