We refer to him particularly because “we know whereof we affirm” having seen him many times at our fairs, where he has been “the observed of all observers," and wo also havo some acquaintance with liis fine young stock. He will give to bis patrons abundant satisfaction and sustain the reputation attained by the Morgan horse. The query naturally arises, “How long shall we continue to raise these superior horses if we suffer the best to leave us?" Another Vermont Black Hawk will never arise, and “Paragon” is one of the best of his colts.

T>RIOR TO the year 1847, Superphosphate JL had been made In England, by treating burnt bones with sulphuric acid, and by the srnuktion or sulphate Of lima, thus abstract ing one atom of lime from tho bones, a sola- bio phosphate had been formed. In 1847, J. J. Mapes made a series of experiments, thus: ho found, analytically, that Peruvian Guano contained the necessary elements for insu ring the growth of plants, but not in the right relative proportions to eaeh othor. He instituted a series of experiments, practical- *Jf by which ho proved that ono hundred pounds Of burnt bones, treated with fifty-six pounds of sulphuric acid, thirty-six pounds of Peruvian Guano, twenty pounds of sul phate of ammonia, formed a mixture every way superior to Peruvian Guano, and that it would not excite the soil, but would con tinually add to its fertility. He had found that onq barrel of blood, fresh from tho animal, mixed with a cord of organic matter, would, by fermentation, pro duce a manure equal to a cord of well rottoJ stable manure. He ftirther found that sev enteen barrels of blood, when dried, would make one barrel, and that blood could be irocured at eomparitirrly little cost, in cer- sin sections; that it could be dried by cook ing and pressing so a* to produce a dry pow der, and by adding to the abovo nnmed in- bred ion ts an equal weight of dried bulloek's glood, a manure is formed ant hundred pounds of which are epual in power and lasting ef fect to one hundred and eighty-five pounds of the best Peruvian Guano. Since ho has offered his invention to the fanners of the country, some fifty companies havo imitated this article under various names, and for the purpose of rendering it popular, havo traduced Prof. Mapes and hit article, claiming tomako that or a superior quality. Every year presents new imitators of this article, who manufacture an inferior article, using the mineral phoipates as a ba sis. instead of the calcined bones of animals. Notwithstanding all this, the demand far Mapes’ Nitregeulsed Superphosphate of Lime has doubled. Peruvian Guano contains an excessive amount of ammonia, the only nse of whieh is to render water capable of dissolving a larger amount of the inorganic eonstitneuts of the soil, or os-sometimes called to act as an excitant. The markot gardeners of New Utrecht commenced some years ago by using two hundred weight of guano to the acre; they are now compelled to use twelve hun dred weight of guano to produce tho tame effect, and their land is evidently impover ished by its nse, while thoee who have used the Nitrogenised Superphosphate of Lime, Lave steadily found uteir soils to bo improv ed, epd instead of requiring more, they re quire less fertilising material caoh yoar. And this Is particularly true of Tobaeoo and Cot- toh lands. Among the advantages arising from the nseoi Nitrogenised Snperphasphate are the following: It carries no weed seed to the eoll; it prevents rust, and Insures the perfect ing of plants; thus, when used on Cotton, the bolls do not fall and. as by the experience of Mr. Lomas, Col. Davis, and Col. Goodwin and others, it gives a greater weight per acre of cotton.-. For Wheat, it has steadily pror ed itself to be superior to tho Poruvian Gu ano; when in contact with seed, it does not destroy It as does the Peruvian Guano; and it supplies the deficiency of the Phosphate of Lime and other ingredients, produced b? excessive reaping of grain and unduo pas turage. Tho reports of.tbe form of the inventor, of the American Institute, end committees oi other institution!, wh > have visited it, altho* It la manured entirely with this- fertiliser, prove that no mannro has yet boon used whieh produces an equal amount profit. The American Institute hare just awarded their Silver Medal to Professor Mapes, for the best fertilizer, after a most thorough invest! gatioii into the merits of oil In the market The subscriber has been appointed Sole Agont in Augusta for the solo of the above fertiliser, and guarantees - that its constitu ents are tho materials stated above, and no thing else.
