prices which cannot fail to be satisfactory. BE.

visit the different counties on court days. and
thus save parties the trouble and expense OF
several trips to Alexandria in beginning and
proceeding with their cases. Discharges can
be obtained here before Register Hill as prompt
ly as in Richmond or elsewhere, and st much
less expense to parties 1t may be added that
the Bankrupt act, in connection with the
Homes exemption, which 1t Is now beloved

COLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO.
Improved in
QUALITY AND CONDITION..
The quality of this Gusno is materially i'm
proved this season by the addition to its COM
position of large per cent Of the
SALTS OF POTASH.
It is improved in condition by being brought
into market sufficiently dry and uniformly fine
to pass with f-cility and regularity through the
orifces of the
WHEAT DRILL.
More than 81 100 600 is involved in the pro-
duction of this Guano. and the trade in it has
steadily increased until now it far exceeds that
of any other fertilizer.
The Pacific Guano Company has q far greater
interest in the maintenance OF the quality OF Its
Guano than any number of consumers can
have; hence no apprehension need exist as to its
continued excellence.
