Tell em that when a sojer hez unlimited
power in his hands and refooses to yoose it
for the perpose uv gratifyiu selfish am
bishun, he presents a hefty sample uv
virtoo under diffikilties. It wood be well,
at this pint, to compare Hancock with
Washington, making the difference atween
em merely nominel. Say that there may
bo officers in the army besides Hancock
who imitates Washington, but yoo lievnt
sot eyes on em ez yit. Assert that Han
cock is the fust officer in command, scnce
the close of the late onpleasantnis, who hez
given utterance to sich scntimencc in his

(Lae to wunst, for reasons wich are odvous.
We desire Gon. Hancock to continue in
well doin, but ez that well doin in our be
half mite lead to his nominashcu for the
Presidency, it is well enough to kill him off
in that direekshen, so soon as he is com
mitted. Hence write. Don’t let Seward
diloot it, or Randall pollyfox it. Put out
my naked idees clothed in your torse and
vigorous language, and you will hev done a

I repeated them to the lcadin officers uv
the “Lost Coz Club,” and the ijee was
rapchcrously received. One member se
jested that it wusn’t best, ez reely the thing
wuz too absurd. But ho voted aye on the
proposishen, compromisin with himself by
saying that es it wuz received ez he ’sposed
it wood be, it wuz easy enuff to swear that
Ilis Eggslency wuz drunk when he wrote
it, wich wooden’t hurt him with his party
at all.
Another, who is trooly a friend of yoors,
objected, on the score that sich high gettin
up wood give Hancock the nominashen,
but he wuz last to skorn. “Wat,” sed an
old grayheeded member, “hez A. Johnson
ever commended that ho ain’t killed ?”
It wuz yoonanimously resolved that yoo
do it.

A. J. Roberts 4- Cos., Atlanta, Ga.:
Gentlemen—l am well pleased willitlie result
of the use of the “ Double Rejined I’oudrcUe''
on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton,
and am satisfied wherever it was applied the yield
was more than double what it would have bean
without it. I regret exceedingly my not asing it
more extensively ihe present year, but will try
to make up my loss by purchasing a larger
quantity next spring. I regard it as the cheapest,
most reliable, and easiest managed fertilizer with
in my knowledge, and cheerfully recommend it (as
I have tried it thoroughly) to the farmers of this
section, and particularly to those planting cotton,
from the fact of its causing it to mature from ten
days to two weeks earlier than it would without
the nse of the Poudrette. I also used it on uiy
garden, aud found it of much benefit to all kinds of
plants.
Very respectfully, etc.,
G. S. OGLESBY.
Extract from a letter received from Professor
Marlin, of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia,
dated July Ist. 1867.
The Double Refined Poudrette is operating like
a charm on my Crop, and attracting universal
attention from all beholders. 1 am already
satisfied that it is the cheapest and surest renovator
of our worn-out lands.
High Shoals, Ga., October 4,1867.
James R. Dev, Esq.:
Sir—The Double Refined Poudrette I bought
for two other parties in connection with myself—
one of them used it on cotton and corn, and thinks
it answered finely; the other put it on cotton, oil
very poor ground, aud thinks it doubled his crop.
I need it on corn. It answered finely, and was
thought by the hand that cultivated the crop to
be fully equal to Rhode’s Super Phosphate. I
also used it on abont an aero of cotton , and lam
clearly of opinion that it is the best and cheapest
fertilizer in use, and I expect to order several
tons this winter.
Yours, very respectfully,
ISAAC POWELL.
Ellaville, Schley Cos., Ga., Oct. 4,1867.
The Double Refined Poudrette purchased of
you last Spring, I think, increased my crop of
cotton 150 pounds per acre ; put it upon worn out
pine land, at the rate of 200 pounds per acre,
drilled in with cotton seed.
Yours, etc., S. MONTGOMERY.
Salisbury, N. C., Aug. 10,1867
James R Dev, Esq.:
Dear Sir—l can safely say that your Double
Refined Poudrette is far superior to any fertilizer
for Cotton; for I have given it a fair trial this
season.
Yours, JEHU FOSTER, Jr.
Savannah, Ga. Sept. 25,1867.
James It. DEY, Esq., Pres’t.:
Dear Sir—l used the Double Refined Poudrette
bought of you last Spriag ou Com. I think it
increased the yield one half. I consider it an
excellent manure.
Respe-- jll T. HOLCOMBE.
Ridgeway, S. C., Sept. 21,1867.
Mr. James R. Dev.:
Sir—l applied the Double Refined Poudrette
by itselLiviid in combination with Other fertilizers,
on COTTON, and am pleased with it; so much
so that it is my present intentiou to purchase a
larger supply of yon next year to apply to my
Cotton crop.
Yours, very respectfully,
HENRY C. DAVIS.

James It. Dev, Esq.:
Sir—ln reply to your inquiry of the results of
onr experience in the nse of yourimproved Pond
rette, purchased of you for this year’s COTTON
CROP, we would beg leave to say that tho pieß
ent season has been one quite unfavorable to the
action of all fertilizers.
Several kinds of manures were used by us,
with the exception of your l’ondrette, with little
or no effect to the crop
WHERE THE POUDRETTE WAS USED
IT GAVE US NEAR HALF ABALEMORE
PER ACRE, AND CAUSED THE COTTON
TO OPEN MUCH EARLIER, and we would
therofore recommend the same as a concentrated
manure for the growth of Cotton, us well as
improvement to the soil.
Yours, very respectfully,
