PACIFIC GUANO.

Price S45 Cash, wiM Usual Adrance for
Time.
EXPERIENCE in the use of this Guano for
n the past six years in this State for cotton
md corn. has 90 far established its character
for excellence as 10 render comment unneces-
sary.
In accordance with the established policy Of
the company to furnish the best concentrated
fertilizer at the lowest cost to consumers, this
Guano is put into market this season at the
above reduced price, which the company is en-
abled to do by reason of its large facilities and
the reduced cost of manufacture.
The supplies put into market this season are,
as heretofore, prepared under the personal su-
perintendence of DR.. st. Julian Ravenel, chem
ist Of the company at Charleston. 8. C., hence
planters may rest assured that its QUALITY
and COMPOSITION precisely the same as that
heretofore sold. At the present low price every
acre planted can be fertilized with two hundred
pounds Guano at cost not exceeding the pres
ent value of thirty pounds of cotton, while e1-
perience has shown that under favorable condi-
tions of season and cultivation the crop is in
creased by the application from two to three
fold the natural capacity Of the soil. Hence
under no conditions could Its application fail to
compensate for the outlay. Apply to

Commendable PrOmptifude.

We have been informed that the tax-pay-
ers of Kershaw county have exhibited as
cheerful and prompt compliance with the
acquisitions upon them for taxes to support
a thieving government, as if their rulers
were men of their own choice, whom they
delighted to honor.
Out of total State tax of about ST., 600:
there has been paid the sum of SIS, 900, and
the treasurer expects almost all of the
balance to be paid within a very few
days. Of course, the same proportion Of
County and school taxes, has been paid, leav
ing but avery small delinquent list. A great
deal oflond sold for delinquent taxes has also
beerrcdeemed, and altogether there are in this
County, at least, very few indications Of dis
affection and disloyalty towards the govern
ment
Our exchanges inform US Of the same state
of things existing in many other Counties,
and there must be quite large sum of mon
ey in the State Treasury: But, judging from
the experience..of the past, tits exceedingly
probable that this money will be squandered
asrecklessly as heretofore, and along in the
spring or summer, recourse will again be had
to issuing bonds on which to raise sufficient
means to carry the government until next
fall. 1t may also occur that another tax will
be levid this year, as last, making three heavy
taxes in less than two years,
Snow, RAIN, THUNDER AND LIGHTNING.
On Last Thursday night qpite heavy
snow fell here, covering the ground to the
depth of an inch and half. On Friday
morning, however, it all disappeared, and a
dismal rain set in which continued until last
Sunday. Saturday night We had the unusual
phenomena of thunder and lightning, &C
companied by heavy fall of rain, which
Continuing all day Sunday, prevented large
attendance upon services at the various
churches. Up to this time We have had
three snow storms. and in: othor respects the
winter has been one of unusual severity, re-
minding one more of Northern cold, rather
than the usual clemency Of our Southern
cline.

President Grants Views en the
 Indian Question.

In his recent annual message, the
 President referred to the Indian busi-
 ness as follows:
 The policy which was adopted at
 the beginning of my Administration
 with regard to the management of the Indians, has been as successful as its most ardent friends anticipated.
 Within so short time it has reduced the expense of their management, decreased their forages upon the white settlements, tended to give the largest opportunity to the extension of the great railroads through the public domain and the pushing of the settle ments into many districts of the coun- try, and at the same time to improve the condition of the Indians. The policy will be maintained without any change, excepting such as further experience may show to be necessary to render it more efficient.
 The subject of converting the so- called Indian Territory, south of Kan sas, into a home for Indians, and erecting thereon Territorial form of government, Is one of great impor- tance, as 8 complement to the existing Indian policy. The question of re- moval to the Territory has been, within the past year, presented to many tribes, resident upon other and less desirable portions of the public domain, and has generally been re- ceived by them with favor. As pre- liminary step to the organization of such Territory, it will be necessary to confine the Indians, now resident there, into farms of proper size, which should be secured to them, in fee res idue, to be used for the settlement of other friendly Indians. Efforts will be made, in the immediate future, to induce the removal of as many peace ably disposed Indians, only, to the h. dian Territory as can be settled prop erly without disturbing the harmony of those already there. There is no other location now available, where people who are endeavoring to acquire a knowledge of pastoral and agricul- tural pursuits can so we'll be accomo- dated as upon the unoccupied lands in the Indian Territory. A Territorial Government should, however, protect the Indians from the inroads of the whites for term of years, until they become sufficiently advanced in the arts of civilization to guard their own rights.
