IMPORTANT TO PLANTERS!
jj* as 0 *> * should
Tlie extreme lateness of the season renders it imperative that Cotton Planters use a jirst
class Fertilizer, as it is a well established fact that such an article will cause the Crop to mature a iull
month earlier than it would without Manure; and no Planter should try to make Cotton this season with¬
out using Standard Guanos, such as our Manipulated Guano, Guano, Scdt and Plaster Compound, and
Phoenix Guano, which we are offering on the following liberal terms:
Wilcox, Gibbs & Co’s Manipulated Guano.......$70.00 per ton.
Guano, Salt and Plaster Compound..................... 65.00 “ “
Phoenix Guano.............— • • ................... ..... 57.50 “ “
At Savannah, Ga., and Charleston, S. C.
Payable in Middling Cotton at fifteen cents per pound, delivered at Planters’ nearest Depot, on or
before the 1st November next, with option of paying money, if so preferred. One hundred and fifty to two
hundred pounds per acre of these articles, applied during April, will advance the Crop and make up for
the backwardness of the season, and we are satisfied will pay the Planter a handsome profit,
Orders will be filled promptly, by ourselves or our Agents in the interior.

Sweenie in Horses .—Can you or
any of the readers of your valuable
paper furnish me with a recipe far the
cure of sweenio in horse?, if there is
is any cure ?—A Subsbcriber. The
best veterinarians, we believe, refuse
to recognize any such disease as ex¬
isting. Jennings says, “Oases called
sweenie are invariably the result of in¬
jury in tome remote parts, as the knee,
the foot, etc. When the animal picks
up the foot clear from the ground it
may be depended upon that the in¬
jury is not in the shoulder ; if how¬
ever, the leg drags with the toe on
the ground the injury may be looked
for in that locality . H McClure says
sweenie “applies, when used by horse¬
men, to a falling away or shrinkage
of the muscles cf the shoulder, and
indicates not so much a lameness in
the shoulder as it does a disease else¬
where—in the foot, or leg, as corns
and duease of the pastern joint.—
Atrophy should he substituted for
sweenie, as it is generally sympa¬
thetic, and, moreover, means that the
body or a part is diminishing in bulk.
Remove the cause of atrophy or
sweenie and the effect will pass away.”
We m : ght quote from other authors
to the same effect. From what we
have said, it will he seen that the
word sweenie means nothing as lo¬
cating a trouble. If the cause of
what is knowu its, or called, sweenie
is in the foot, the treatment would
have to be different than if it is lo
cated in the shoulder. Our corres¬
pondent must, therefore, find where
the trouble is and we may then be
ble to aid him.
