DEATH OF MR. STANTON.
'J’be Savannah News, in alluding to the
-'efflise of Edwin M. Stanton, late Secre
n f War, who died in Washington
tar} Ul . °
("itj. on the 24th, of heart disease, says :
WLe new honors of ex Secretary StantoR
„ er e short-lived. Only a day or two ago,
: e wai nominated and confirmed asa Jus-
■ ce of the Supreme Court. Providence
, ever designed that he should take a seat
a bench already too much dishonored.
A dispatch informs us that he died sud-
i eD )y in Washington, yesterday, of dia-
fase of the heart.
“Edwin M. Stanton was a bad man.—
IDs entire political course was character-
j ze( j by bitter partizanship and an utter
recklessness as to the means employed to
accomplish bis ends. He was always a
Later of the South, and allowed no occa
sion to barm her to pass unimproved. He
y-ns without instincts of bouor, as bis con
troversy with President Johnson proved,
jfc was cold-blooded and cruel, as bis en
tire policy during and since the war, am
ply sustains. Still he bad great intellect
ual and administrative points. He was
tbe life and soul of the Federal armies
during the late war, and but for his aLili-
ties and unconquerable sternness of pur
pose, it would have closed years before it
did, and with tbe South independent.”
Tbe Hartford (Conn.) Times has a clear
conception of the Georgia status. It con
cludes a forcible argument in our favor,
thus :
“We trust that the people of Georgia
irill unite like men, and never accept any
such act of despotism ; but remain unrep
resented, if need be, till tiie people of this
country come to their seuses, and uiul
men to Congress who will regard ffeir
oaths, obey the Constitution, and cease
the work of tearing free government to
pieces.”
Yes, if Georgians of to-day have tbe
spirit of their fathers of thirty and forty
years ago, they will never dishonor them
selves upon grounds of expediency or pol
icy, or to appeaso the bate of enemies.

Lick :—Tbe father of thought ; the
frieml of energy ; tbe companion of labor ;
the associate of industry ; the councellor
of wise plans ; tbe prompter to fore
thought ; copartner of economy and rebuk
er of bad habits, There may be, and is,
such a tiling as Luck, The good or gaiu
that one may reap without a plan or tho’t
to such an end, is simply Luok, for as
there can be truly no great deed without
a great tlicugbt, so there can be no suc
cessive good luck without thought to that
end. To illustrate : A man buys a lot of
land, reasoning, that in time, land will
advance, and be make bis ten or one hun
dred per cent. He lias no thought but to
tbe enhancement of land in time, and buys
with that intention. A corporation is or
ganised for tbe purpose of building a Rail
road, aud it happens that said road goes
through 6ai(l land, iu fact it becomes a
main point, aud a town is built upon the
lot, the owner sells town lots instead of
selling acres, aud in his case there is sim
ply Luck, for it came to him without such
an end iu view. Bad luck, is the. want of
energy, foresight, prudence and economy.
Gold:—Tbe master of the miser; the
slave of the prudent and thoughtful ; the
reckless companion of tbe spendthrift aud
the ever ready friend of tbe philanthropist.
The love of money, we are told, is the root
of ali evil ; for when the love of getting
and keeping silences conscience, destroys
friendship, wrongs the weak, oppresses
the poor, defrauds a neighbor, sells virtue,
and betray? inuocence, it reigns supreme
in the human heart, aud causes devils to
blush. To him who uses bis gold to nllo-
viate the sufferings of bis fellow man, or
scatter happiness and contentment around,
it becomes white winged angels to bear to
the celestial gate the tidings of good deeds
sent ahead.
Me kit :—The stepping stone to success ;
‘he begetter of friends ; tbe companion of
good iuck ; the road to fortune; the path
way to fame, and tbe open door to confi
dence. Merit like the sun may be bid at
times behind a cloud, but when seen looks
°nly tbe brighter for the obscuration, it
needs not tbe subtile arts the charlaton or
mountbank to pass current at all times
and at its true value. True there may be
"merit without elevation, but there can be
no elevation without some merit, for na
ture creates merit, and fortune brings it
into play."

Dear Sir—I received your favor of October
15th, and would have answered it sooner, but you
wished to know what per cent. I was benefitted
by the use of the one ton of SOLUBLE PACIFIC
GUANO bought of you last Spring, and 1 could
not jtell correctly until X got through giunino-,
which I did this last week. The SOLUBLE
PACIFIC GUANO more than doubled the yield
of Cotton on land unrnanured before.
I planted ten acres last year without manure,
and made three (3) bales of Cotton; planted the
same ten (10) acres this year, manured with the
one ton of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO, and
made seven (7) bales, averaging over 4U0 lbs.
I have beeu a Cotton Planter for thirty years,
and all the lime—except this year—making “ Bum
ble-Bee Cotton”—the bumble-bees stand on their hind
feet, on the ground, and suck from the top blossoms.
I never expect to plant another acre without Ma
nure, and wish you to send me another ton of
Soluble Pacific at once, and oblige
Yours, truly,

DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE OF THE TVANDO FERTILIZER.
Cotton.—From 250 to 300 pounds per acre—on the list—bedded or in drill with
seed.
Corn.—From 300 to 400 pounds per acre, 200 to 300 pounds in the hill at the time
of planting, and the balance when the crop is 2T to 3 feet high.
Wheat.—Prepare the ground by deep plowing and barrowing. Apply, broadcast
with the seed, about 300 pounds to the acre, and in tbe spring from 100 to 200 pounds
as atop dressing. This will ensure a large yield.
Potatoes.—Apply tbe quantity designed for an acre iu the drill; 250 ponuds has
usually given an increase of four to one.
Vegetables.—Compost always with stable manure or leaf mould 300 to 400 pounds
per acre, in the drill and under the seed.
CERTIFICATES.
T. J. Sartor, of Union District, S. C., by the use of the two-horse plow and the
IVando Fertilizer, has been enabled to gather from a portion of lands forty-three
bushels of wheat-per acre ; and from the average lands prepared in like manner, he
has harvested twenty-six and a halt bushels per acre. Mr. Sartor is a large farmer,
and, as shown hy the above statements, is an enterprising and successful one. This
is the largest average yield of wheat we have ever beard of in this State.

Your favor of 15th inst. is atdiand, and, in reply, will give you the information de
sired in regard to the Wando Fertilizer. I put out the 1st February, fifteen bushels
compost manure to the acre, running a deep furrow, then ridged on it, and about tbe
1st April ran a block over the ridge and applied 100 lbs. to the acre, throwing with
good turn-plow, two furrows; and on tbe 15th I threw out tbe balance of the middle,
and planted my cotton. I think with the compost it would have yielded GOO lbs. seed
cotton to tbe acre. I got per acre, with the Wando, 1,000 lbs. seed cotton, which I
consider a short crop. The long drouth and excessively hot weather cut it off at
least one-fourth. 1 applied some on thin land, without anything else ; that I gath
ered last year 250 lbs. to the acre, aud this year gathered 500 lbs., which shows an
increase of 100 percent, with the unfavorable seasons we have bad. Used 100 lbs.
per acre on the thin laud above. p, j. RAY.
Bennettsville, S. C., October 26tb, 1869.
Iu reply to yours of loth inst,, it affords me pleasure to report favorably on tbe
Wando Fertilizer, as to its merits as a manure for cotton. I tried it on two of my
plantations, side by side with Peruvian Guano, both in equal quantity and equal cost,
under cotton, on unmanured land. Where 1 used it dollar for dollar I think the yield
will be twenty-five per cent, more than tbe Peruvian Guano, and where I used it
pound for pound I think tbe yield will be ten per cent, more than tbe Peruvian
Guano - Z. A. DRAKE.
N Herrnuon, Burke Co , Ga., October 25th, 1869.
We bought, last spring, two tons of Wando Fertilizer, and used it, side by side
witb Peruvian, No. 1, and raw cotton seed, under the cotton crop alone, the eye guid
ing solely in its distribution, without reference to quantity, upon ojd land, with a deep
silicious bed from eighteen inches to two feet and cropped, with little regard to rota-
tation more than half a century. Without au active manure, a ill not produce, un
der the most favorable seasons, more than 300 lbs. of seed cotton, nor five bushels of
corn per acre. The results are eulirely satisfactory. The “Wando” has yielded
more than Peruvian, and three times the quantity of cotton seed, liberally applied as
a fertilizer. J
The present Las been tbe most blighting and disastrous season known in this sec
tion for thirty years, and concentrated fertilizers a failure, especially those not com
bining a generous quantity of nitrogenous matter.
From tbe results of this crop we are satisfied the “Wando” will prove a safe and
profitable fertilizer, and next year we shall prove “our faith by our works.’’
