Dear Sirs:-I was induced to take
the agency for the sale of your fertil
izers for Mappsvile and vicinity last
spriug. | reluctantly accepted until
| should have trial upon our prin-
cipal crops, Irish and sweet potatoes,
corn, etc.
| sold to over thirty-six different
farmers using from one bag up to live
tons. All of my customers were in
different about trying the goods, now
they all, without exception, endorse
and recommend the goods strongly.
The Sure Growth Compound for
Irish potatoes was used from four
hundred to eight hundred pounds to
the barrel of seed, giving q return
from thirty to sixty barrels OF mar
ketable potatoes of the best qnality.
The Sweet Potato Fertilizer gave eX
cellent results, but from the general
experience | advise the use OF Sure
Growth Super-Phosphate rs the best
sw. ct potato fertilizer we have ever
used. ;,
The Standard Phosphate is well
spoken of for corn, as well as the
Sure Growth Super.Phosphate for
the same crop.
i estimate from present reports
that my sales this season will more
than double tho Sc of last year. All
who used the goods last season will
largely increase their orders and
their neighbors will buy with them
Yours very truly.

Our Navy Fights.

Rio DE JANEIRo, Jan 30.-Satur-
day the American bark Amy, Capt.
Blackford, from Baltimore, bmeri
can bark Goodnews, Captain BY
rick, also from Baltimore, and Julia
Rollins gave notice that they were
going to Saudre piers. Admiral De.
CANA learned Of this yesterday ana
notified Admiral Benham that if the
vessels attempted to go to the piers
referred to he would fire on them. !,
Admiral Benham at once replied
thar the vessels would go to the piers
if they wanted to and that he would
send the Detroit TO protect them.
He said if the Detroit could not fur
nish sufficient protection, every YES,
sci of TIE American squadron would
be employed in the work of protec
ton.
Early yesterday morning five In
surgent tugs and armed merchant
men proceeded to the place where
the American vessels were lying at
anchor and lowering about them,
apparently waiting for them to get
under way, when they would fire mp
on them.
There was great activity displayed
on board the American war ships,
and soon the sharp tones of the boat.
SWANS whistle could be heard piping
the crews TO clear for action:
At five o'clock the Detroit hoisteo
her anchors and with shotted guns
steamed in by the side of the Insur
gent warships Trajar and Guiana
bara, both of which were lying close
to Goodnews. AS the Detroit tooh
up her position a shot from the Qua
nabara was fired at Goodnews. The
Detroit at once fired a Sin pound sho
across the bows of the Guanabara
whereupon the latter vessel replied
with what is supposed to have beer
Il blank cartridge. The Detroit thei
turned one of her guns upon the Qua
nabara and sent a small shell in5'
her stern post. and was on the poin
of delivering Il broadside at the In
surgent ship, when the Guanabar
signal!ed she would stop firing.

that of the seventy-one Democrats
who in the caucus voted against the
proposed addition of the income tax
to the tariff bill, that the most of them
preferred to yield their convictions
on the subject in order to remain
loyal to the tariff measure and pre-
vent the continuation of the discord
which threatened its success. The
Wilson bill as amended will pass the
House this week and then will 90 TO

discussing and criticising it for few
weeks, it is believed, will pass it
without any material modification.

Mr.. Cooke, member of the LeSis
lature from Norfolk, has his heart
still set on a free ride, despite the re-
cent defeat of the Campbell free pass
bill, and has introduced another Dill

railroad, steamship and steamboat
companies which shall be hereafter
.,ve.vt,,,,r,J,,,vvre vr-u,fe crelferaY lsStIfi'
bly,, under a contract to
be made between the State
and transportation companies.
1t is free from some of the objections
which were urged against the Camp
bell bill and it has been passed upon
by some of the lawyers as not uncon
stitutional, but we do not believe the
people will approve measure which
compels railroad companies to give
the use of their property for nothing
and if that were not true, it will be
hard for the members who favor free
passes to convince their constituents
that it is their duty to be continually
agitating questions for their own in
dividual benefit, rather than in de
voting their time and attention to
matters of interest to the people OF
the Commonwealth.

or having enclosed it has failed TO
maintain it as required by law, and
such stock is injured or killed by the
said company's trains, or the said
stock by being frightened or run by

i Sorrowful wave that ExttntlS across
the Country.

There is no question about the fact
that all over this country the Demo
Gratis are getting mighty tired Of slow
progress that those in authority are
making toward changing the Federal
Office holders The complaint is not
made 50 much against the consular
service, in which hardly more than
one half OF the changes have been
made. nor even do the Democrats
complain very much about the large
number of places under the Treasury
Department, which includes supervi-
sors of steam vessels, but when it
comes down TO the question of post
offices. marshalS. district attorneys,
and revenue collectors, there is Il
howl going up over the country
which, beginning ut California, has
tens across the continent, is borne by
the hyperborean winds of the
Dakotas and caught up by the cease
less zephyrs of the South, and Its
sorrowful wailing is lost in the dilge
like cadence that mourns around the
pillars of the Post Office Department,
while within Fourth Assistant Nix
well sits in comparative idleness, and
the wonderful Mr.. Bissell cannot
muster up sufficient energy to ap-
point Democrats where terms have
actually expired.
1t was figured a year ago that ii
would require about eighty to one
hundred fourth class post office
changes per day to make all OF them
Democratic by the end OF the pre-
sent administration. Mr.. Maxwell
is dropped TO about thirty to fifty
per day, and generally about half OF
these are caused by deaths and resiS
nations, at which rate the close oil
this century would still find him il

accounts Richmond Times.

General Lee and General Wise.
Colonel Charles Marshall, of Bait

Colonel Charles Marshall, of Bait
more, tells the following Appomatto2
story:
General Lee, with Colonel Mar.
shall, had ridden down the lines and
was returning. On his way he had
TO pass the quarters of General Henry
a. Wise. The impetuositv of Gen
eral Wise is well known. This morn
ing he had arisen and sought place
where he might wash his face. The
only thing like water was the yellow
mixture of Virginia clay. The Con
federate army at that time did not
boast of such things as towels: hence
after General Wise washed his face
the yellow mud drying made him
look, as Colonel Marshall said, lik e
the most genuine descendant of Pc
cahontaS that Virginia ever knew
He was in this condition when Gen
eral Lee ard Colonel Marshall came
in sight. Without waiting to put on
his coat he rushed forward and en-
claimed:
General Lee, | understand, sir.
thai YOU are about to enter into negro
tiations for the surrender Of this
army"
General Lees face maintained its
solemnity as he said the rulnor was
true. In an instant the arms of Gen
eral Wise were stretched toward
Heaven, and he exclaimed. with the
most tragic solicitude: "Then, sir.
what in the name of God is going to
become of me-
The solemn face of the Confederate
chieftain frightened the least bit, as
he said, with tone of command:
General Wise, GO wash your face. =
