Tuesday orening latt waa the occaaioa in Mem
phis, of & benefit given jointly by Kimsey & Co.’s
tu upe of “ Jlvkmle Continentals a*d Camp
jillls, ’ fc- iftod by Mr. Swuibourne and Miss
VAEDiJiHorr, under the direction of the “ JSoca of
Maita,’’ the relief of the sufferers by the recent
<ii*aetroi*3 explosion of the steamer St. Nicholas
The generous citizens of Memphis responded
heartily and promptly to the appeal in behalf o*
sufferi: g humanity, and the occasion proves to
have been a moat interesting one. The Bulletin
The bouse (Crisp's Gaiety) waa crowded to suf
focation, and there never has been exhibited here
—even in the palmy times when Booth tilled every
aveuue of that spacious building—eo brilliant an
array of beautiful and kindly hearted people a t
crowded there to contribute their mite in co opera
tion with the “ Sons of Malta. This occasion La
one which mark* anew era in our goodly city—
the ea in which Philanthropy takea the place of
FVbi* n in creating a furore.
The Sr piece waa “ Ingoinar ’ —lngomar by
Mr Hwinboume, Varlkenta by Mi. j a Vandenhoff.
They have pl iyrd this niece here before, veil— but,
a/- t inspired by the occasion,they last night,together
wi h the entire wmpany, played it inter. At the
f-mJ of the fourth act, the following incident oc
uurred:
Mr Canning came before the curtain and an
pounced that Capt Glime, first cleik of the St.
Nicholas, had died this afternoon at tnree o’clock
Among his iact words, communicated by his physi
cian <Dr. Keller), waa the repetition of the two
lints, doubtless suggeeted by his affectionate re
membrance of hie wife, lost in this terrible disas
ter—
“ I wro soul* without a single thought—
iwo hcaru that heal a* one.”
He desired, also, to expreer his gratitude to the
people of Memphis, and particularly to those o;
them of the Order of the “Sons of Malta,’* by whom
he wne tended, and of which he was a member—and
so sank to rest. The effect of this communication
as it were trorn the dead to the living—upon the
large audience, was electrifying, and may be better
imagined than described.
A; the end of the fifth act Miss Vandenhoff war
enthusiastically called tor, WLen, upon the rawing

which refers to the noble conduct of the officers ot

The Late Odd Fellow Celebration.
Tbe Macon Citizen, after copying our report of
the Odd Fallow s Celebration ou Tuesday last, adds
the following :
The Augusta Editors are too modest by half, in
reference to this celebration. We tbereture supply
the deficiency iuthe above account ot the proceed
luge ot the day, winch are accurate enough so far as
appeared to the public eye—but being one ol those
admitted into the inner temple of festivity, we be*;
leave to say in beliall of the visiting gueete from
Macon, that everything wss gotten up on the most
liberal scale, and we were welcomed with a true
fraternal if not a princely greeting by the brethren
of .Miller and Washington Endues. The festive
board wan spread with a rich repast of substantiate
and delicacies, and when this part of the subject was
discussed to the entire satisfaction of the company
of near two hundred, the “feast of reason and flow
of scut” succeeded, prolonging the entertainment
until the hour approached for the departure of the
train that wss to bear us homeward. Speeches,
toasts, boors ami anecdote enlivened the scene and
gave inspiration to many a tongue unused to the
forensic ai t and autamUlar with the jewelry of elo
riu.-nt diotion The Grand Marshal of the day, I*.
U M John D. llutt, did the honors of the night,
assisted by several noble brethren, who seemed to
take pleasure in H./ii’rinjjus into new delights, and
w ho never dot fired a sell-imposed duty, in older to
give pleasure to their quests and proper honor to
the occasion. Hut we have not apace Ur dwell upon
the soene.eo pleasurably impressed upon our hearts.
Sullies it to say, that the celebratiou was an entire
fit< cess, notwithstanding it was, in a degree, im
promptu, and we have no doubt it will be a day
long remembered by the Order in Augusta as an
e/Mck in the history ot Odd Fellowship, from which
will How good results, in the increase of their mem
bership aud iu enlarging their sphere of beto licence
and moral power. Wt-will add that Kev. Bro. C.
W. Key, the Orator of the day, was unanimously

his eicelleut address for publication, which we
think is a point which come so directly under the
heed of “good of the order” [that he will not allow
himself to disregard it.
Matrimonial Difficulty.—A married couple
rtb.dmg ou Friend etreet. near the canal, found
that, alter a few years of counuoial felicity, they
we;e the moat miserable uH i tals alive, being uu
able to agree upou anyone point of domestic econo
my and diplomacy. Their daily cares were sure to
culminate in an evening quarrel, and they some
timcs astonished each other with blows, accompa
nied by the ut*ual marks of their respective distin
guished coroideratious. Finding lite disagreeable,
and being able to agree upon no other point they
iiualiy concluded to try the last grand experiment
together by jumping into the Scioto. Night before
last was the time set for the attempt. A raw and
biting air prevailed, but their resolution was fixed,
and they descended the bauk together, each tryiug
to nerve the other by depreciating his and her
courage with bitter words. They reached the bunk
ot the Scioto —hand in hand they stood upou the
bauk of that abyss w hich mortality is wont to re
gard with horror. The air was cold, and bo was
the water—neither was congenial, neither whs the
existence they were about to leave. This thought
was decisive. and they plunged into the water,
which was uot deep, but very cold. The man could
swim, aud his iiist impulse ou rising to the surface
was to strike out for the shore, but he wanted to see
w hat his wife would do. She came sputtering aud
.blowing to the surface, and supposing in the dark
ueas that her lord was at the bottom, called loudly
for help, and sank again. When she next appear
ed the husband caught her, aud they both reached
the shore in safety, wet, cold, freezing. Crestfallen
and aohan ed of the foolish act, they went home to
gether. negotiated a treaty of peace, aud commenc
ed anew, satisfied that nothing can be worse than
the bottom of the river. There is now a fair pros
pect of the couple going down the hill ot life togeth
er quietly aud in peace.— Ohio Statesman.
Chime in France. — From statistical compila
tions prepared on the subject, under the orders of
the French Miuister of Justice, and which are
quoted by one of the New York journals, the aver
age number of crimes committed in Fiance is one
to inhabitants. From 1826 to 1856, the pro
gress of crime increased with frightful rapidity.—
France appeared to grow more and more vicious,
every ytwi augmenting the long hst 01 misdeeds of
all grade*. Ihe culminating p *mt seems, how
ever, to have be u reached in 1855 In 1856 there
was t notable falling off; and, since that epoch,
crime has eoutiuuevi to ’ose ground, and honesty to
grow apace In the city of Paris itself, the change
commenced in 1851.
Paris now feels encouraged in the knowledge that
the present average is only one outlaw to *455 citi
zens, a decrease of a third in the number ot evil
deeds committed within its walis. Au eminent law
ver of the Imperial Court of Paris, one of the most
learned of the French writers ou crimiual jurispru
dence, M. do Bonneville, has lately published some
remarkable notes upon criminality in France. Ac
cording to this geutlemau, it is to the decree of De
cember 19th, 1854, that Paris is indebted for the
improvement which has taken place in this particu
lar, without reference to any voluntary change in
morality whatever. The decree in question en
tirely abolished the old state of affaire, aur ordered
the reorganisation of the Paris Police upon the plan
of that of Loudon. The number ot police ageuts
was tripled, and t e effect has been a diminution of
a third in the number of malefactors.
At the present moment there is no city in the
world, in which the quiet townsman or stranger
may stroll about the street at any hour of the night
in more perfect safety. Ou every corner, you are
certain to meet one or mote policemen ; and adveu
tures with highwaymen, in even the meanest and
worst quarters of the capital, are entirely out of the
question. Tne operations ot robbers are now eon*
aucted in broad day light, in the midst of the crowd,
which has become a means of escaping the vigi
lance of the law s myrmidons.
Another measure which has diminished the num
ber of Parisian thieves and desperadoes, is the ban
ishment of convicts whose term has expired, and
tr.e adoption of the system of transportation

The Bishop cf London Preaching in an Omni
bus Yard —A remarkable gathering of the men
connected with the “Favorite ’ omnibuses assem
bled on Sunday evening, 3d ot April, iu a carriage
shed at the uepot in Lpper street. Islington. Tne
largest building iu the yard, specially prepared for
the purpose, was crowned to excess by a most at
tentive auditory. During the past four years a re
ligious service has be*n conducted on every Sun
day morning, for the benetit of these men. by a
clergyman res dent in the parish. At eight o dock
on Sunday night the service commenced with a
hym, which wts very heartily sung, then followed
tne litany, read by the honorary chaplain. Anoth
er hym Having been sung, the bishop read, in a
clear and emphatic manner, the 6th chapter of St.
John's Gospel, and then preached for half an hour
from the 14th verse. Tne sermon was admirably
adapted to the occasion, and was listened to
throughout with breauhe©s attention.
The Americas Consul at Valparaiso.— The
course of Mr. Tievict, the United 8 at we* consul at
Valparaiso, in resisting the arrest of certain parties
charged with treason, who had taken refuge in his
he use. has caused much feeling there. Tne resi
dent Americans are ea*d u> be of opinion that he
trantoendeo hu# duty, and the government of-Chile,
it is alleged, will met::ute criminal proceedings
against bun. In <_efeuoe of Mr. TANARUS., it should be
aed.d that hk bouse wts forcibly entered by an
aruitd officer doting his aoeeuoe, and that hie wife
herAca.lv defended the premise* until Lie arrival,
wfce he di&armed tne officer, and refused to give

We closed our test report upon z stagnant market
which has undergone no improvement during the week
under review, bat ha* rather grown worae. The politi
cal intelligence from Europe, upon the tenor of which
operators r>a-e their opinion* ot the coarse price* will
take in Liverpool, have not been of a character to ex
cite confidence; aud yet with declining domestic, a*
wtli as foreign, markets, prices here have been faiily
sustained. This may be accounted for by tbe ease with
which money i* obtained, enabling holders to provide
for their payment* without forcing aiea. Buyer* have
been indifferent about purchasing and have demanded
concessions, which were only yielded where parties
were determined to sell. Ine steamers from Liverpool
during the week have been the City of Waahinfe'toc and
toe Circasnaa, the latter with advices to the leth and
quoted 1-16 a id. aecline.
Price* kept up very well until Wednesday, when a
downward tendency wa* uiamtested, and Good Mid

On Thursday there was some enquiry, bat buyer* and
sellers could not come to term*, and our circular closes
upon aa unsettled and drooping market. The iraosao

we are therefore compelled to omit them Good Mid

purchases to any extent could not be made under 12|c.

CHARLESTON, April 29. — Cotton —The market, as
will doubtless be recollected, was thrown into a very
unsettled state towards the close of the previous week,
in consequeuce ol the unfavorable aavice* brought out
by the steamers Fulton and Arabia a-d w hen we closed
our Inquiries, the transations had established an irregu
lar decline of ito sc. on the opening figures. The mar
ket on Friday iast, the first aay pf the current week,
presented no new feature, as the transactions, which
reached upward* of 1609 bales, were taken upon the ba
sis of this reduction. There wa*, however, a material
improvement iu the demand on Balurdr y, which result
ed iu tne sale of some 3390 bales. Price* continued ir
regular, aud, in some instancts, buyers, a, was said at
tue time, operated ou slid more favorable terms. The
transaction* on Monday, which took up fully 1590 baies,
continued to show an irregular market. The trade on
Tue*aay seemed to come to a tacit understanding to
await the receip. ol further advi-.es from across the wa
ter, aud the sales ot the day were limited to about 500
bale*. Ihe market opened ou Wedne day with the CJir
cassiaa’s advice* to nand. N\ hat influence, n any, her
advice* may have had in al.muiaung the demand on that
day, it is not for us to say, but a ve.y goo a business cer
tainly engaged the attentiou of dta ers, which requited
iu the sale ot 2490 bales, and the market h said to have
closed in favor of the purchaser. The sales on Thurs
day, which reached about 1659 bales, have developed a
more settled state of things, and have established the
quotations below, to which we would with confidence
refer, as indicating the s ate and condition of the mar
ket at the close of business. 1U lower qualities have
uo distinct aud definite price, aud a* the trausactious iu
these descriptions are governed aDd controlled by cir

which have been sold at 66c. ‘fc* sack.
Sugar —The market continues to be very much ne

prices must be considered almost nominal. We note

NEW ORLEANS, April 20.— Cotton— Arrived since
the 13th iust, Bobo bale*. Total receipts of the week
20,6*0 baies. Cleared since the 19th mst., 43,693 bales.
Total exports for the week 66,183 ba.e?. btock in press

ed; not cleared on the 22d instant, 262,958 baies.
We stated in our semi-weekly report that a material
check had been given to operations by the advanced
rate* claimed by factors r.t the opening of the week, aud
thus tbe sales of the first three cays of the week barely
reached 13,000 bales, the LuropaV advices being to hand
on Monday. 4)a Wednesday the market wore a very
quiet appearance aud barely 3500 bales were disposed of,
with the Arabia’s advices, one week later, to hand about
noon. On Thursday later and more full particulars of
the Arabia’s advices were before the public, and being
unfavorable in their tenoi, our market was brought
nearly to a stand, only a few buyers coming lorward,
who took barely 2000 bales, in several small lots, at ir
regular aud generally easier price*. Yesterday being a
legal holiday (Good Friday) the Banks and public of
fices generally were closed, aud very few buyers came
forward, the sales barely reaching some 1200 bales, ma
king a total for the past three day* of 6700 bales, and
for the week of 19,700 bales. With respect to prices,
w e have tj state that there has really been no market
for two or three days past. The Arabia’s advices, par
ticularly in their political aspect, appear to have inclined
many parties to withdraw until farther advised, while
most ot those disposed to operate are lower ia their of
fer* than holders generally are willing to submit to.—
Under these circumstauces the lew sales made within
the last day or two have been at irregular and generally
easier rate but they at e too uuimportant to establish a
market, and we retain previous quotations, with the re
mark that they are mostly nominal at the moment.
The receipt* at this port since the Ist September, (ex
clusive of the arrivals from Mobile, Florida and Texas)
arc 1,601,965 bales, against 1,428,932 bales to same date
last year.

Presentments of the Grand Jury f Ogle
thokpe Superior Court, at April Term, 1859.
The Grand Juror*, sworn for the present term of the
Superior Court for Ogi thorpe county, make the follow- ;
Lng presentments :
We have examined the Court Records fer this county,
and are satisfied with their condition The County Jail
is unsafe, aud needs many repairs. The wont of crimi
nal have not unfrequently evaded punishment by es
caping from it. In iu present it is a public
nuisance. We, therefore, recommend that the Inferior
Court sell the present building, or make whatever dis
position of it as in their judgment is best, and cause to
be erected oauide of the limits of the village anew
granite building.
To report correctly on the finances of the county, re.
quired more time than we could at present give the sub.
ject, and we therefore recommend that the County
Treasurer make out a report to every Grand Jury, em
bracing the a&seU, indebtedness, and probable future
expenses of the county for one year, so as to show what
are the objects upon which, and in what way, the peo
ples money ia expended.
We farther recommend that the Inferior Court com
pel the Tax Collector to pay in the taxes to the Trea’
surer within the time required by law.
The public roads hive been worked in a manner
creditable to our county officers during the past year, for
which they are entiCed to the thanks of our body ; and
we would recommend to the Infe ior Court continued
vigilance and diligence ii this respect. We would no
fail, however, to say that the exceptions are not to be
overlooaed. The road leading from Lexington to Wash
ington ha* been, during the past winter, in a condition
almost impassable, subjecting the travelling public to
great inconvenience and danger. We trust that the In
ferior Court, in view of their responsible position, will
have the law strictly enforced, and make defaulters
suffer its most rigous penalties. The road also leading
by Mr. Oliver’s saw mill to Lexington depot, ha* been
in very bad condition and ought to be better worked
than it has bten heretofore. The Wa*hington road was
worked by making embankments across the road at va.
rious intervals, and the result has been that wherever
the road had been channeled by washing to any con
siderable extent, the water was ponded at these places
on a clay surface, which mixed up into mud during a
wet winter, has at several pla ea became soft to such a
depth as to render travel over them well nigh impossi
bie ; and if those owning land on either side of the road
should enclose it, the road would be useless for traveling
purposes in the winter season. We earnestly recom
mend to the Inferiour Court that whilst having the roads
all well worked, they give their attention more particu
larly to the mode or manner of working them, and that
the j reject all roads worked with cross-embankments j
and require of the road Commissioners, for their respec
live districts, to work their roads, particularly hills.des
aud inclinations, with side ditches, and to have dirt
pulled into the middle of the road, elevating it higher*
than the sides. We recommend that a tax of fifty per
cent, be levied on the State tax for county purposes, aud
twenty-five per cent, for poor school purposes.
Having taken into consideration the provisk us of the
Act passed by our last Legislature, “for the education
of the children of the &:ate between certain ages,’’ Ac.,
iu accordance with the provisions of said act, do recom*
mend as follows:
Ist. That the time allowed to bodies organised as we
are, is too*hort to enable us fully to consider and proper
ly to digest an educational system. We therefore re
commend to the next Legislature, to vest the powers
given to Grand Juries under the above stated act, in
some more permanent body But as that act cast the
whole fund into the poor tchool system, unless we take
some step in the matter, and as we are sati lied of ihe
inefficiency and radical defects of the system, we make
the following recommendations for the present year, and
until altered by law :
2d. We recommend that the Ordinary of this county, af
ter con uitatiou with the county Purveyor, Tax Receiver
Clerk of tfie Superior court, aud three men selected by
himself from each militia distiict, shall div.de this coun
ty into iot more than twenty-six nor less than twenty
school districts, by the most distinct and convenient
boundaries which the nature of tbe case will admit; that
he cause a map oi the county to be drawn, with the
boundaries of *aid districts marked thereoD, and keep
the same on file in his office ; that as soon as he has
agreed on said boundaries, that he shall give public no
t.ce thereof in the most ,notorious manner in his reach ;
aud at the same time order an election, to be held at the
time and place designated for each district, for three
School Trustees for said district. The returns of elec
tions to be made to the Ordinary am the result to be
published by him The said Ordinary shall also appoint
three persons to hold said elections, either one of whom
may act.
3d. Said Trustees shall bold their office until succes
sors shall he elected aud qualified, as mav be hereafter
provided. A vacancy in their number may be filled by
the remaining Trustees or Trustee.
4th. In laying off’said school districts, the Ordinary
stall see that no district shatl contain less than twenty
children between the ages of (8) eight and (18) eighteen
years, and none shall contain more than one hundred.
sth. The Trustees thus elected shall take an oath be
fore the Ordinary, to discharge the duties of their office
without bias, partiality or prejudice, aud for the best in
terest of the cause of education in the county.
6th. The Trustees in eac h district shall have power to
select a site for the District School House, keeping in
view convenience to all the children, and a central posi
tion to all portions of the district. The Trustees, how
ever, may exercise a wise discretion to disregard a
central location, where other circumstances require it.
7th. The Trustees shall have power to arrange for the
erection of a suitable School House on the site thus se
lected, in case such house is needed, or to repair an old one
when repairs are necessary—may receive contribntions
from ali persons for this purpose, and may, in their dis
cretion, appropriate any part of the fund, received from
the State and School Tax for the present year, to that
purpose. The building thus erected shall be forever
dedicated to the purposes of a public school.
Bth. The Trustees shall have power to select a teacher,
(lie or she having complied with the eighth section of
said act,) and to make such contract with such teacher
as they may see fit, but ia every case tbe said school
shall be perfectly tree to every child between the said
ages iu t*aid district, for at leust three months in the
year.
9th. The Ordinary shall distribute the educational
fund received from the State for this county among the
several school districts pro rat a, according to the num
ber of children between said ages in said districts ; and
shall pav over the same to the Trustees of said district,
respectively. But the school fund raised by the county
tax shall be equally divided among the districts without
reference to the number of children, ‘lbat tbe numberof
chi.drtn shall be determined by the returns of the Tax
Receiver, as provided in sectirn third of said act.
10th The Trustees Oi each district shall, before the
20th day of October m every year, return to the Ordina
ry a statement of the condition of their school; the
number cf chi dren taught; the salary paid the teacher;
and any otuer inf rmation of interest And any Trustees
failing to make this return shall draw no part of the
school funds. But the same shall be held by the Ordina
ry until the return is made. These returns shall be
copied by the Ordinary, the origiuals filed iu his office,
aud the copies given to the Senator from this county, to
be laid before theSenatus A^ademicus.
1 ltb. No teachers in tins count - -.hall receive any part
of the school fund except the t . ers of the District
Schools, as h rein provided.
12th. The boundaries of school districts, once estab
lished, shall not be chauged, except on recommendation
of a Grand Jury.
13th. If Trustees elected refuse to be qualified and
to serve, tbe Ordinary may appoint in their places.
14 ih The daily reading of the Bible shali be a part of
the exercise of every public School.
Our thauks are due the Solicitor-General, T. M Dan
iel, for his faithfulness in the discharge of 4 his duties, and
for the gentlemanly assistance rendered us in the dis
charge of ours; and to Judge Thomas for the ability
aud impartiality with which he discharged his general
duties, aud fjr his rigid firmness in the administration
of the criminal law.
We recommend that these Presentments be published
in the Augusta Constitutionalist and Clirt nicle & Sen
tinel.

SEWING MACHINES.
EASONS why the GROVER A BAKER Machine
XV is universally preferred for iamily sewing :
1. It is more simple aud easier keot in order than any
other Machine.
2d. It makes a seam which will not rip or ravel,
though every third stitch is cut.
3d. It sews from two ordinary spools, ana thus all
trouble of winding thread is avoided, while the same
machine can be adapted at pleasure, by a mere change oj
spool , to all varieties of work.
4tb. The same machine runs silk, linen thread, and
common spool cotton with equai facility.
sth. The seam is as ela st ic as the most elastic fabric,
so that it is free from all liability to break in wash
ing, ironing, or otherwise.
6th. Thestitchmade by this machine fs more beauti
ful than any other made, either by hand or machine.
Merchants can secure the sales of these Machines in
their different local!'ies, with profit to themselves and
their customers, by applying to the undersigned, owners
of the Right fur Georgia.
These Machines are always on exhibition at their Sales

IMPORTANT TO PLANTERS!
11HE RICHMOND FACTORY, Richmond county,
. Georgia, continues to MANUFACTURE WOOL
EN oLOTH at. 12A cents per yard for plain, and 16 for
t wills—finding every material except the wool. The
extensive and constantly increasing patronage the Far
tory has enjoyed for years past, assure the proprietors
that the article of Winter Clothing for uegroes made by
them, has not been surpassed by any cloth made North
or South. Recent extensive improvements, and others
now being erected, enables us to keep up the standard
of the goods and to secure an early delivery.
Planters or others, who may wish to send us wool to
be made into cloth, can send it dirty f clean—if wast
ed, it shou and be done ia cold water, and done thorough
ly. If sent dirty, we charge half cent per yard extr
for washing. lurry wool is not objectionable—the bu rs
are removed by machinery. The name of the owner
should be distinctly marked upon every package sent.
Wool sent by Railroads iu Georgia, Alabama, Te.
nessee, or South Carolina, to the Augusta Depot, with
owner s name and “ Richmond Factory” marked upon
it, will be regularly and promptly received, and the
cloth when m .de returnei to the points directed. Each
package made up iu the turn teceivi.d.
We would especially urge upon our patrons, the great
necessity of sending in the wool as soon as clipped; if
this rule is followed, the parties would always be sure
of having the cloth iu ample time.

VIOLIN ATTACHMENT.
Patented November 4th, 1557.
13 HE subscribers, being exclusive owners of this val
uable improvement, hereby calls the attention of
all performers on the Violiu to its advantages. The ob
ject ot this invention is to enable ordinary performers,
who finger only in the usual keys, (say, one, two, and
three shatps. or G. D. And A.,) to execute music IN
ALL THE KEYS, fingering in those only to which
they have been accustomed. It is the invention of a
scientific Musician, a..d will enable any performer to
play successfully IN THE MOST DIFFICULT KEYS,
witho >t the expense, time and trouble necessary to at
tain Bcientiffc skill. The variety of tone which it gives
to an instrument, is really surprising; and by its aid
the violin cru be tuned in unison with any other instru
ment. It will enable any violin to be brought up to
“ concert pitch’ without danger of breaking the strings ;
and to one who plays much, the saving in this respect
would soon pay tor the “Attachment.” It is so simple that
r.ny one can understand how to apply it, .nd it can be
attached or detached in a moment without, dtffacing the
instrument. The “ Attachment,” with directions, will
be forwarded free of expense, to any one inclosing

IMPORTANT TO FARMERS!
Honey Blade Hungarian
SEED.
WE beg to call the attention of Agriculturists to
this highly valuable product. Experiments iD
various parts of this country, have proved its aclapta
tion to the different varieties of soil and climate, and
fully established its claim to superiority over all other
Grasses.
We have not space to enter into details, but will pre
sent briefly some of its advantages:
Ist. It will produce double the weight to the acre, in
any soil, than most other Grasses.
2d. The same weight possesses more nutriment, thus
insuring the farmer more than double the return for his
grounds than he can obtain from any other forage plant
3d. Both Hay and Seed can be produced from the
same crop—the hay being equally as valuable as other
hay, while the Seed is as va'uable as other grain lor
cattle, hogs, fowls, Ac , or it will sell at a fair price tor
the manufacture cf oil.
ill. It matures in so short a time that it can be sown
on grounds where other crops have failed, i.y drouth or
other causes, and at the same time yieid a large return.
sth. In Northern climates, where clover and other
grasses are sometimes killed out by hard winters, this
will yield a large crop—and iu those sections of tbe
South where other grasses will not thrive at all, it will
grow very pro lift \
6th. It will Rtand all kind of weather, and whether
the season be wet or dry, the HONEY BLADE may be
relied on as a sure crop.
For further par! eulars, apply to the undersigned, who
will take pleasure in furnishing pamphlets containing
description of grass, certilicates, directions for cultiva
