Tho Chicago Times, of Friday last, has tho following account of a singular incident at a funeral: One of tho strangest occurrences hap pened yesterday nt tho funeral of Michael Guthrie, who wat accidently killed the tl.iv previous on the North western runway, which we have ever been - called upon to ohroniole. The family of Mr. Guthrie; consisting of a wife and three children, bail made ox- 'tensivo arrangement* tor t he qocuintna- dation of the friends of the deceased at the funeral. A large number of carria ges and a numerous assembly of mourn ers were present wl»l»t» the undertaker, Mr. Berry, arrived with tho hearse.— About the’ same time, another carriage, containing n woman richly ami fashion ably dressed, was driven to the door.— The woman alighted and entered tho .hou*e. To the astonishment of tho assembly, to nil of whom she was a total stranger, she greeted tho children of Guthrie as hot* own, und they in re turn addressed her us their mother, manifesting the greatest joy, mingled with surprise at seeing her, The wife, on tlm otlior hand, was eoufoHndud.— She knew not what to say. nor what to think of this sudden and strange ap pearance of one who claimed also to ho the wife of tho deceased, and .who was addressed by hi* children as then* mother. She knew herself to be their stepmother, having been married to their father in duo legal form and in full confidence that hi* first wife was dead. This supposition being now over thrown by the sudden appearance of one claiming to he that deceased wife, the other with began to upbraid the children for not toiling her that their mother was living. The real mother, (forsuch the stranger win) assured her that tho children were not to hluino, as they, as well us their tat her, hud reason to believe her dead. She had deserted her husband in the city of Si. Louis, where they lived, and shortly afterward, caused an announcement of hor death to Ik* published in the newspapers or that city. Hut nho was not dead.— Leaving St, Loui* sho had lived in Chi cago, not knowing that her husband was heie, until she saw the account of ills death published in the papers yes terday morning. Sho had come to re claim her children and to behold for the lu*t time on earth the form of their father. _ Si sort, a it.—The l’riueipalof the State Military College of Louisiana, at Alex andria, is said to he a brother of the lion.

Merchants do not niAko trade.— Irade makes merchants, and unless those !h our Southern cities are pat ronised by customer* who are identified with them in every interest, they* can not build up a market that will com pete at once with Philadelphia, New York or Boston. But their 'importations now from abroad are much larger than is suppos ed and they have pledged thomsolves, and we have con fid nnco in their sincerity and ability that they are “able and de termined to sell on as favorablo terms any jobbing inorchants of the Nor thern cities.” If wo will encourage rthem as it Is our duty to do, importing bouses and agencies of foreign manu factories will ho established at tho South and our commercial independence will he secured and our anti-slavery ene mies properly rebuked.

Ill 18*7, J. J. Alnpcs inndea series of exiierimcnts, thud) he found, analytically, that Peruvian Guano contained the necessary elements for Insu ring Hi* growth of plants, !»ut not in the right relative propitious to each other. IIo instituted a series of experiments, practical ly, hy whieh ho proved that one huudred pounds of burnt bones, treated with fiity-six jtounds of sulphuric acid, thirty-six pound* or Peruvian Guano, twenty pound* of sul phate of ammonia, formed a mixture evary way superior to Peruvian Guano, and that it would uot excite the. mu would con- tiniiAlly add to its fertility. IIo hud found that one barrel of Idood, fresh from tho animal, mixed with a cord of organic in utter, would, by fermentation, pro duce a manure equal to a cord of well rottod stable iiianuro. IIo further found that nteen barrel* of blood, when dried, would make one barrel, and that blood could bo procured at coiuparitiwlv little cost, in cur tain sections; thnt it could be dried by cook ing and pressing so as topnbfuue a dry pow- dor, and by aduiug to the nbore named in- G edients an oqunl weight of dried hutlock’i nod. a manure is formed one hundred pounds of which are opual in power and lusting of- hundred aud eighty-five pounds of tlio best Peruvian Guano. Since he has oilored his invention to the farmers of the country, some filly coinpnnios have imitated this nrticlo und-r various names, und for the purpose of rendering it popular, havo traduced I'rof. Mupes und his sriielo, claiming’to make tlmtoi u superior quality. Ev»-ry year preseuts new imitators of this article, who iimiiutactiire an article, using the mineral phospntes sis. instead of tho calcined bones of animals. Notwithstanding all this, the deiuuud for Mopes' Nitrognnised Superphosphate Lime has doubled. Peruvian Guano contains an excessive amount of ammonia, llm only uso of whh h is to rentier water eapuble of dissolving larger amount of tlm inorganic constituents of tho soil, nr ns sometimes railed m net as sn excitant. The market gardener* of New Utrechtcoinuienced Homoyenr* ago by using two hundredweight of gun no to tho acre,- they are unw compelled to use twrlvo hun drod weight of guano to produce the saint ell'cet, Mini their laini is cvidoutly- irnjKtver Lhetl by its use, wiiilo tlioso who havu used the Nftrogonised Aunerphosphuto of Lime, have otemlily found their soils to bo improv ed. and instead of rnquiring inoro. they re- quire les* fertilising mutorinl each year. And this is particularly true of Tobacco und Cot ton lands. Among tlio ndvantages arising from tin 11*0 o| Xltroguuhod Superphosphuto are tin followingt It carries no weed «ecd to tho soil; it prevent* rust, aud insures the perfect ing of plants; thus, when used on Cotton, tbo bolls do not fall and. as by the experience of Mr. leumis. Cot. Davis.’and Col. Goodwin and others, it give* n greater weight p.-r acre of cotton. For Wheat, it hni steadily pwr* ed itself to be superior to the Peruvian Gu- nno; when in contact with »ued, it does not destroy it a« does tke Peruvian Guano; and it (implies tho defHencv of tho Phospliiite of Lime and other ingredients, produced bf excessive reaping of grain and undue p turage.
