a CARD.

AUGUST 10, 1876.
In issuing this card to the public, il is sim
nlv our intention TO give our reasons why we
are not able to reduce the price Of our MAJ
IHJTM FERTILIZER for the present season.
In making our purchases Of materials USED
in the manufacture Of IN AXlMUM'' we have
ALWAYS exercised the utmost care and diligence
in the selection of stock Of materials, know
ing that ourgood name and personal repuia-
ton is identical with the farmers interest in
getting the highest grade fertilizer made in
the country and in our MAXIMUM FERTI-
LIZER we guarantee and stake our personal
reputation upon il that the MAXI UNI as the
best fertilizer in the market, and has proven
the justice Of our claim for It, by the contin-
uance 10 use it of the hest farmers in every
section of the country where ii has been in
troduced We have had this year to go to
Savannah, Ga, where the agents Of the Pc
ruvian Government had their last and only
cargo of original high-grade Guanape Guano
stored 10 make our purchase of Peruvian Gu
ano, in order to get such would insure the
former established grade, and secure beyond
doubt the reputation Of ''MAXIMUM y
In securing this high grade Of Peruvian
Guano we have paid q tdrge increase on the prlce
of last year, and the present price of Peruvi-
an Guano now being sold from the agency of
| the Peruvian Government in New York. IT
| will he readily seen by the intelligent farmer
| thai Peruvian Gnano, being au imported ar
| ticle, is not affected by any depressious in
either our financial or commercial markets,
and therefore we who use Peruvian Guano er-
ctusieeyg never have the opportunity TO make
purchases Of materials TO advantage in times
of depression, as Others have, no use part
| or wholly of domestic articles, such as dried
blood ard animal matter of various kinds,
and we consequently have not the margin TO
reduce our prices.
In conclusion, we offer MAXIMUM at the
same prices MS last year, feeling that the far
ners who now use il will see il 10 their inter
est TO pay the same price rather than get n
small reduction in price aud a greater one in
quality.
With many thanks for past encouragement
and guaranteeing the Nj -iIMUW EERTE
| LIZER fully up to its past standard, we ask
| from the farmers who have so successfully
us d il in former years, a continuance of their
patronage for the present season.

The CARRIE HAYDEN This little
schooner, which so narrowly es-
capped a total demolition upon Dis
covery reefs a couple Of weeks ago,
arrived here yesterday morning and
is lying at the he.d of Yesler's
wharf. It will not take very great
expenditure to make her as good as
new. These little crafts have been
a great benefit to the people living
between here and Bellingham Bay,
for they go up good many narrow
streams where steamboat could not
turn and take freight so small that q
steamer would not be compensated
for her delay. The Carrie Hayden,
Mary Parker, Juanita. G. G. Per-
kins, L. J. Perry and the rest of the
mosquito feet" are great help
to the people of the Lower Sound,
and also bring many a big dollars
worth of business to Seattle.

CUTLERY. - The most elegant
table cutlery we have seen, is a
set of dinner and dessert knives in
the window of Charles Naeher's
store. He has also everything in
the shape of jewelry and silver ware.
Useful articles, as well as those that
are ornamental, can be found there
in endless variety.
The MALAY.-Tbis fine ship, own
ed by Nicholas Bichard, sailed from
San Francisco on the 9th for this
place. She will take cargo of coal
from the Talbot mine, and Mr.. Col
Inns has the Wenat towing down
barges loaded with her cargo.
For SAN FRANCISCO The steamer
Eliza Anderson leaves here next
Wednesday and connects with the
City of Panama at Victoria. Pas
sengers should go aboard on Tues
day night and make sure of it.
ABANDoNEL.-Theo. o. Williams
has given up the contest over the
Sheriffalty of Kitsap county and
will allow his opponent to be in
Quoted into office without molesta-
ton.

MA1nDEnAYs.-.The North Pacif.

MA1LDELAYs.-.The North Pacific
is becoming very irregular in her
movements, of late. Instead of reach
ing here last Saturday night at 9
O'Clock, she barely arrived on Sun
day at noon and the Post Office did
not get the mail delivered till 4 PM. !;
but that was not the clerks fault.
Last night she should have been
here at 9, but did not arrive until 4
this morning. The merchants find
fault with this style of doing busi-
ness, and justly too. The Pacific is
not slow boat, therefore there is no
reason why she should not be on
time. Two mails every other day. is
not the terms of the contract under
which the mails are carried, yet this
has occurred twice within a week.
The people are entitled to daily
mail delivered at certain hours, and
those who contract to deliver it
should either "shoot or give up the
gun"
The "C1TY OF PANAMA. This
steamer reached here yesterday at 8
A. NJ. and left again for Victoria at l
P. M. She brought the following
passengers: For Seattle - Sewall
Knapp, Mrs. E. Briscol, Miss Car
rie E. McGilvra, j. Rowland, Mrs.
Mcknight and mother, E. N. Bris-
col and II in the steerage. For Ia
coma-Sisters Geraldine and Bewa-
dale, Rev. F. X. Prefontaine, Noah
Aubin. Her freight consists of %
tons for Port Townsend, "a tons for
Seattle, II for Tacoma and 5 for
Olympia. She met the Dakota at
midnight on the @1th, bound South.
From San Francisco t. Esquimalt
dock the time was 68A hours.
GEORGE T. EVANS. This gentle
man, whose name is portion of the
musical history of the Pacific Coast,
is conductor of the orchestra in
Titus Opera Troupe. He is a tai
ented composer and has written
many pretty songs such as 'I'm
Waiting my Darling, for Thee"
"Aileen Alanna," and score of
other gems that are inmates of ev-
cry household.
DID Nor P1AY.-Owing to the
illness of Mr.. Sawtelle at Port Blake
ly, the play of Arrah-na-Pogue was
not played at Yesler's Hall last night.
By the way we notice that Mr.. Yes
ler's good judgment shows itself in
new pair of steps from the front
porch, thus affording ample means
of escape from fire.

WHITE HOUSE. - Max Kant, one
of the industrious proprietors of
the White House, left for Semiah-

on the steamer Dispatch. He is
authorized to receive subscriptions
for this paper in that vicinity, and
to receipt for all moneys due this
Office on that account.

fontaine, who has been spending the
summer at the East, got back by the
City of Panama and appears to enjoy
excellent health. His many friends
and parishioners greet his return
with sincere qualification.
SH1P-SHAPE.--It. looks just about
the thing to see Hyndman's hack,
with its Argnad lamp in front of
the Colman block every night, with
its team of bay horses neatly blank
eted, awaiting a call. Very nobby
affair.
TRACK-LAYING. - Work of laying
rails goes rather slowly just now,
but the workmen will finish the big
swamp trestle, at least by Monday
noon, and then they will make short
work of getting to Renton.
