TOBACCO.-For Maryland Leaf the market
continues very active, and the larger part of
the receipts finds purchasers on arrival at gen.
orally satisfactory prices. The low grades, are
still neglected, as are also the very fine grades,
but medium and good grades are in active de-
mand, and sell very readily. The sales of Mary
land this week reach fully 500 hhds., the bulk
taken for France, Holland and Germany. In
Ohio there is little doing, no purchases having
been made as yet in this market On account of
the French contract, and we have only to note
sales in the week Of Is to 100 hhds, principal
ly for Duisburg, but the market though quiet
is steady and firm. In Kentucky we note also
sales of rs to 100 hhds., mostly for export, at
steady prices, but we hear of no movement in
Virginia. The inspections this week, which
have been chiefly of Maryland, add up about
2, 400 hhds u and wenote the export of s02 hhds
to Bordeaux, 512 hhds. to Havre, l hhds to
Rio de Janerio and hhds to the West Indies;

TO TOBACCO PLANTERS,

TOURTEEN years experience in growing
IL Tobacco, by the planters of Maryland and
Virginia, has convinced the most skeptical that
Excelsior" has no equal in growing or matur-
ing that crop. 1t is now their unanimous opin-
ion that, ''from the application of Excelsior
the crop is heavier, of finer quality, cures ear
lier and better, and is not SO liable to suffer
from drought as from Peruvian Guano."
We refer to every planter in Maryland.
Uniformity Of quality guaranteed by the Nan-
ufacturers.
Price $50 per Ton.

CAUTION.-The popularity of Excelsior
as the only reliable substitute for Peruvian
Guano has induced INSCRIPTIONS parties in this
and other cities to use the name "Excelsior"
to sell their worthless compounds.
Every bag of genuine Excelsior" has our
name on it in Red Letters. All others are coun-
terfeits.
