MISS ANNA MEHLIG.-"Justice" writes to us
in reply to our Leicester correspondent, con-
corning tie musical artistic, Miss Mehlg He
says:
"No one who has any acquaintance with
Mr.. Thomas will for a moment doubt his
thorough honesty and strict conscientiousness
in giving his patrons everything promised in his
programmes; and we are confident the illness of
Miss NJ, lot which we have satisfactory proof }
was more Notifying to Mr.. Thomas and his ac-
complished young artist than it was disappoint-
ing to the audience. The fact that she played in
Boston the following Tuesday evening is no
proof that her illness was feigned, as your cor
respondent would have us believe, on Monday
evening. Is it reasonable to suppose that deli
cate lady is always in condition to grapple with
the duties incident to her position, whether in
the great eXertion requisite to an Interpretation
of Mendelsshon, or even in the more common
duties of HEP "Justce" thinks it "unkind"
to criticise her manner on the platform, and de
mand of her the usual "mannerisms Of some
would-be artists"
He adds that her "being naturally timid and
inclined to shrink from public applause (al.
though fully approaching the compliment),
ought not and does not injure her, either as an
artist or a lady, in the estimation of sensible
people"

81 100000 capital employed in this business, more
than onc-haf of which is invested in works and
other appliances, which, if not made available in this
trade, would prove total loss, hence the Company
cannot afford to jeopardize so large m interest," by
bringing into market any other than the best articles
that can be produced by their unusual facilities.
The Company has much larger interest in the con-
tinucd excellence of its Guano than any number of
consumers can have.
We know that less concentrated fertilizers can be
sold at less prices, but when the quantity required
per acre to produce good results is considered they
are found to cost more. For example, fertilizer at
SG5 to $40 per ton requiring $50 to 200 lbs to be
applied is really chedpcr and much more desirable
than at half that price requiring from 500 to 4oo
lbs. per acre to produce like results.
We have shown in another column, from figures
given by planters as the results of last years eSpe-
rience, that the money invested in Soluble Pacific
Guano paid from $50 to 700 per cent profit on the
amount invested and it is worthy of notice, that
in the instances where planters have stated exact
figures as to increase produced by the use OF the
Guano, and the quantity applied per acre, the per
centum of profit exceeds By far those instances in
which only the increase is stated in per cent, giving
reason for the assumption that the reports are at
least not overstated.
If the Pacific Guano Company could make as
large per cent of profit on its capital in Is gears
as planters themselves show they make on their
investment in this Guano in one year, we would be

The Price Of Soluble Pacific Guano
FOR 1871.

In response to opportunities from all parts of the
Southern States for reduction in the price of this
Guano, caused by the prevailing low price of Cot
ton, the Pacific Guano Company has authorized as
large reduction on last years price as can be af.
forded 1t must be remembered by planters that the
mSket price of Cotton in no way affects the cost of
this Guano This reduction can only be made by
reason of increased facilities for production, and the
general policy of the Company to be content with
small profits and look to large sales for fair return
upon capital invested.
We trust the reduction in price will prove salts

in price with many fertilizers put upon the Market
