FRAUDS IN FERTILIzERs.-Dr. Voelc-
kerr OF England, has shown up several
z :. ing instances of worthless guanos
and D.. .frphosphates, in which gypsum,
earth, chalk, and sand figure in place OF
the simon pure material. One sample
of bone manure contained only one per
cent. of phosphate of lime and one per
cent. of nitrogen it was made up chiefly
of plaster of Paris and some cheap or
ganic refuse, impregnated with sulphur
ic acid. Itscost price was "a los. sterling
per tun, and was worth less than 81 los.
Other specimens were still poorer. This
exposure is the more necessary now that
the English farmer, as some one has
said, depends for success mainly on
brains and bones-his own brains and
somebody else's bones, But let us not
hatter ourselves that we escape, or that
American manufacturers and dealers in
commercial manures are any more vir-
tuous. An analysis by Prof. Johnson OF
Yale College OF l6 different kinds of fer
tilizers, some of which are sold as high
as $65 tun, shows that very large
proportion of them are comparatively
valueless. For example, Cne specimen
rated in market at $23 tun was found
TO be really worth as fertilizer the
modest sum of S2.33. (Which conduct
ION the part of the manufacturer) is, tc

Ter jury, "impreper, bnts severe" l-

Silver in the Streets.

The Corinne (Utah) Reporter gives the
following account of the discovery Uf
rich silver ore in the streets of that city :
" Passing down Sixth street at half past
six last evening, few feet west of Stan
ley's store, well known bank cashier
might have been, and was, seen to pick
up crumb of ore, weighing about sixty
pounds, and directly peering with ex-
perienced eye among the crystals, the
man of finance, with an explanation
prouder than that which welled forth
from the lips of an ancient philosopher,
fairly roared in strong Saxon words
By the whiskers of Brigham, have
found it 7 So he had, and thereupon
down went the discovery stake, and up
rose the monument to secure his tenure.
A hole is erected in the lucky spot, and
more of the precious metal taken out.
The location is fixed, and the mine, nam
ed 'Nockumstiph,' given place in me-
tallurgical fame. Specimens of the ore
can be seen at the various banking
houses, and quantities have been sent to
the assayer's to determine its value,
which is merely question of dollars
and cents. The excitement is high to-
day with the prospect that the streets
Of our cify viii be dug up in all manner
of holes and prospects before the week il

i California wants to have the United

on the high seas. The young.people out
there whose parents object to their
union simply take "a Clergyman along

the kind have occurred, and little
drawback now appears in the fact that
all these marriages are invalid. Here's

A cULpR1T pleading before a court
that he did no. know he had trans.
crossed the law. because he did not
know there was any law on the sub.
ject, is met by the remark from the
Court that all arc presumed to know
the law, and that the ignorance of the
accused is no p~a.liation of the otfensc.
When a body claiming jurisdiction
and knowledge of a court, however,
urges in excuse for ~thwarting the will
of the people of Andrew county, that
they did not know the law, what is
done about il? Why, they arc de-
Tended by a giddy aspirapt fer Con-
gress as doing exactly what was right
and that is all. The people can
wait" say they. And the people win
wait.

number of our citizens for a vote to

That they knew of such a law, and
had seen it, is not denied, but a certi-
