J. ALLEN BROWN, Agent Navassa Gdako, Salisbury, N. C. Dear Sir: I now send vou the result of mv experiments with Guanos, this year. I used eight kinds of Guano, selecting land of as nearly uniform soil as possible, side by side, putting cents worth ot each kind to the row; and by the side of all these Guanos, I put into one row 190 lbs- of good stable ma nure, leaving one rpw without anything.

The rows were rods (or 100 yards) by measure, and 50 rows to rhe acre, in the midat of a 20 acre field. I strack my rows, sabsoiled each row, putting the Guano in and planting, all on tne same day, being tne bth day ot May. row for tne result of the picKing, as given Deiow Fertilizer. Klb? Boxes.

HOW GRANGERS; ARE SWINDLED Since the people of Wisconsin have compelled their I Legislature to kick out the Potter Law, the Grangers do not crow quite so much. They used to boast that they started the cheap transportation movement, broke monopoly in California, taught farmers to avoid debt, reduced mortgage rates, and inculcated the blessings of co-operation. Tle State Grange in this State, by the way, in agitating for a restoration of the mortgage; tax, is in a fair way to I make the farmers' average interest-burthen about 2 per cent, heavier than it now is, and the Master of the Grange, in his address at the Frederick meeting, was decidedly nore eloquent than perspicuous upon the subject of co-operation and agencies as a substitute for commission houses and regular dealers. We would like to lecture a little on this theme ourselves, aud for the Grangers' especial benefit. Amongst our exchanges we recently carnie across a remarkable New York publication, in which we detected at once that the hand was the hand of Esau, but the voice was thie voice of Jacob.

The paper was an advocate of the Grangers' cause, but it spoke principally on behalf ot a certain New York house, which was going to sup- plv the Grangers with everything they needed at the lowest wholesale prices, taking produce in exchange at the highest market rates. Tea by the cargo, coffee by the crop, sugars by the ton, or millinery by the dime's worth it was all the same to this wonderful house, which could swallow a camel without straining at a gnat. The fact that this Paradise for the Grangers claimed to do what, the big gest house in the trade doiiot venture to attempt "but by the cargo" was in itself suspicious, and we investigated the matter a little, finding that the Grangers' multum in parva was in fact a little notion house and man-millinery concern of decided Hebraistic affinities, doing a slashing line of rdtuil jobbery out otroue of the most odorous of the New York avenues; that iheir cheapest rates were of a very questionable order, and the Grangers; organ in question was reputed to their own private publication. Their purchase of teas by the cargo was traced down to one or two purchases of half-chests at the time, and that not from large dealers, but at second-hand from retailers, with whiom of course it was uecessarv for them to divide the profit. It is a well known fact to tne trade that teas are never bought by the cargo ejreept at times of great speculation.

It well known to the trade that teas are not graded according tp any standard of ouality but on particular merits ot eaeh invoice. But the difficulty is that the Grangers are not aware of these facts, essential points of trade knowledge. Instead of trusting to honest dealers, whose business it is to male the necessary discriminations, they have; just gone mad in pursuit of the phantom of cheapness, and consequently fall an easy prey to dealers whoj have no scruples about practisin iupo'n their ignorance atid folly. It the essential evil of this whole Grange movement that m'their attempts at "agencies," "co-operation," jtnd the iike, they are thrown right at the start out- i ci i 1 lde Of tllfi JlttC of blXSlUeSS Xvllich he legitimate and reputable trade is will ing to do, and necessarily becomes victims of sharpers and dealers who navo no concern arxmc inet quality 01 their operations; because they have no character to lose. The National Grange offers, the highest possible premium to dishonesty by starting out with a plan of operations inj which it is impossible for respectable dealers to join hands with hein.

Tlie incidental fact that the Granger themselves are the chief sufferers ny this, is the more deplorable since the most of them are led astray through the purest ignorance and with the begt intentions. Grocer and FroMon Dealer. 'f. a aand -vrHi Washington. March 4.

This is shown by the action of ilieJiiifd States Senate in the virtual refusal to admit Piuchback as the representative uf the Kellogg Government, me democratic and many Republican Senators believing in the validity of tba: Government, though unwilling to go further on that hand and say that it ought to be turned out of power for acts committed even since Apiil, 1S75, which are not covered Jby the terms of that compromise. If it be, clearly proven that jhe, impeach merit is based on an appropria-" tion of public funds by Kellogg during the past it is eiuirely outsid Jof the old troubles In Louisiana and llieW fore a new. issue. But those well inform ed in Louisiana matters fear that, there are other, underlying pretenses which may be used to piecipitale a causeless revolt lion, and in the light of the real, facts oppose the step taken yesterday.

On the other hand there areas good and true Democrats who declare that Louisiana will forever be plundered by Kellogg and nis harpies, who now can re-elect tbem selves as long as they like, if his latest dimes are not punished. A U. S. 'Deputy Marshal Killed. Through; the courtesy of Mr.

seems to be uppermost in tlie mindt of many persons in Uiis state that is who is to be our "standard in the coming political contest.

Without this our leaders can do nothing and without thU we may ex feet nothing but certain defeat. in order to-secure this much desired end, 1 beg to make a single suggestion: For the laxt two or three years there lias been a great cry in our party that scheming and designing persons have been "packing our conveniens for their own and their friends' benefit that the party is used to give the individuals id ace and power that we have "rings in the party," fee.

-That there is no small amount of truth in ihte complaints is patent to veryj one, and that our swecess depends upon break ing this thing op is no les true. Whenever the people nee ar.d understand that this species of rascality (for I can call it bv no other name) is to be ingrafted into the Dnocratic paaty, they will not be long in concluding that we are bnt'littlebetfer llian our enemies, and that it is only a between masters. We must go into the contest with ucleao hands," "pure .1 ijj a .1.: Hearts inu vaucu iruiu wiiii mis iiitmu, HONESTY. TRUTH ASP GOOD GOVEEKMENT we will an certainly triumph as wj No con-sideratifvnsektiept these must enter' Into the fight. Lt the interests of ourselves and that ot onr friends be ignored from the Township Conventions to that of the slate.

In this con-flection le me 'suggest the impolicy of any county making recommendations. Let men who have always roted rigkt be selected as delegates without any regard lo their being leaden in the party we want a nomination for the different places made by rank and file of the party, not-by General A. "or Col. B. It is a matter of regret i list there is considerable complaint already thai certain newspapers and individual areTtrying to forestall public sentiment in the nominations.

Jt Usnid that Vanpe "will certainly be nominated" that 'the peo- r.le will not let him off," and such like expres- 11 1 Mor.s. iow ini is an wrong anu taaoing "much hafin already. 1 There aje more than fifty niutn nnftn mremiy. i ocre bjc more umii hut ntefl Nortli t'rolin that wild make Jgood a race asVanee, ind more" than, a dozen in ent as in we or Now, friend Brown, you see the result. The Agents of the other Guanos are all my frieuds.

I don't speak disparagingly of any of the above Guanos, not at allJ The sorriest may pay. but the NAVASSA most assuredly pays the best of all. Every acre where I used all Navassa, I make one bale tU the acre weighing from 410 to 456 lbs. i Permit mo to say, in conclusion, that taking the above as a basis, 1 lose 6,650 lbs. seed cotton by not using all of your most coble5 and best of ail Guano, tbe-Navassa.
