REDUCTION IN PRICE.

We again present to the agricultural commu-
nifty our Fertilizers with renewed confidence, as
equal, if not superior, TO any manure offered Tor
ali crops, not excepting Peruvian Guano. Year
by year their value ha- become more manifest,
as demonstrated by largely increased sales, and
we challenge any brand to show more satisfac-
tory and uniform results. Conhnlng our manu-
facture to materials of highest standard, as
proved by analysis, we claim like results in all
time. On the Wheat crop the testimony is of
unqucStionablc character We respectfully call
attention to our popular Guano, known us
GENUINE PHOSPHO-PERUVIAN
GUANO,
made of the highest standard Of Peruvian Guano
and Bone Phosphate of Lime, with Alkaline
Salts of Potash, Soda, &c.
BRANDED AA,
Containing 6 to per cent Amminia.
q ~ to 80 g Bone PhoSpe. Lime.
Potash, Soda, SC.
Beautifully prepared and adapted to the Drill,
in sacks of II to the ton, Of 200O pounds,
and sold ut $50 per ton-tormer-
The character Of # this this Gu Guano is so we'll known
MS to need but little further commendation from
us. Used for many years, il has become a favor
ite with all consumers, and 1t only requires a
trial To convince all of its value The Ammonia
and Bone Phosphate being in rational proper
tions, it can hardly fail to render satisfaction,
improving the quality and increasing the crop
it adds one other most important ESSENTIAL in the
permanent improvement of the land-in this
particular we question whether il has its equal.
1t acts wonderfully upon the grass crop, and to
such an extent as to bring Impoverished lands
up to high state Of fcrtlity-equaling Bone
Dust Such is the testimony of many accom-
plished planters We beg the closest investiga-
tion as to the integrity and manufacture of our
compounds, and earnestly invite all consumers
to inspect our works. material used and mode Of
manufacture.

Ny CoLoRED WAsHERwoMAN.- love is
blind, then hate is blind not merely, but deaf
as an adder. 1t is not enough to say that out
side of love there may be something less than
hate. Shelley knew what hurt him when he
made his complaint Of the Reviewer:
Alas good friend. what profit can you see,
In hating such hateless thing as me?'
As for the Reviewcrs-I magnify their office
as much as any man.-and yet am wildly glad
that there are some things wholly outside the
realm of technical criticism. 1t Is blessed
consolation that there are few writings, such
as the Bible, Shakespeare, aud the Constitu,
