ference is being given to the fir-st-elas* guanos,
aa experiment* have proven them to l>e tin
cheapest and most remunerative in the end.
Our farming community are making some pro*
grew* in the advaneed methods of farming, by
Adopting improved agricultural iuiyleme.nts, and
placing more stress upon deep cultuae in the
preparation of tbe soil. While liberal up plica
tions of commercial manures will greatly enlarge
their profit© in cotton, the more vital question
of food crop© should not be neglected; lor on
this latter, snppletoeutcd by as much cotton as
is available, depends the prosperity of the farm
and the life of agriculture. We say, then, plant
plenty of food crops. They will be needed.

Tin* Alllgnmcnt.
A short time since tho Atlanta Constitution
was of opinion that the holder* of bogus bonds
should not be allinred to suffer loss by reason of
tbe 1 compliment" they hud paid the Stab*, in so
investing. It also states Uiat their acknowledge
ment of tho fraud places the question iu anew
light, r moving it from the strict “forum of
law to that of honor and equity."
A little later the Ooumitution avers it has been
non-committal, and says that, knowing the dis
cussion of the bond question by tho leading men
of the ffftat© would develop a general opjiositioii
to re-opc.uing the iuv*.tigation,it was striking in
“flu? tnth of poptiktr prtjudUe, ’ by urging a dis
puHsioiiatu investigation into the momcutou*
matter, which the inkm-.t ami honor of the State
At first, the bond holders should
not sutler loss bocuuse they bad cwnjMiHenlcdus.
(the compliment business should be very brisk
alter this) and next, its astute Oracle points out
the drift ot pnVdiu sentiment, wbereujjou the
agile editor of the Constitution jumps hack
over the line, and coolly says: “Hi arc not pre~
jwrtd yet to a- 'kk for ourselves the momentous
matter. ”
And yet the Constitution firgbs further inves
tigation. It needs in relight; the bond commit
tee having foiled to bring out the more delicate
points in the matter. We trust it* position w ill
he fixed when ull the bearings arc taken and
the “teeth-•£ populnx prejudice" ceased to be
in* naccd by the ponderous strike of its editorial
fist.
Mr. Nutting’© Fiscal Gill.
We arc glad to see thut tho wrangling* over
this bill have ceased, and that a fair basis of j
settlement bus heenugrued spoil by both Houtes. i
It is now left discretionary witli the Governor !
to issue ncvcii per cent, bonds, a* the exigencies
of our finance© nny require. And it wus well
on the iart ot Mr. Hilly* r to have tho above pro
vision incovporitted iu the uinendiucnt. Our
willingne* to issue rig/d per cent, bonds might
hhvS been construed into a tacit acknowledge
lucut to the bond holders Ui.it they hud injured
Georgia credit by thiircryof repudiation aguiust
UM.
Tho security of the©© bonds should commend
them to investors, and their division into small (
sums of one and two hundred dollars renders
them accessible to the people at large.
The provisions of this bill arc ample to meet
the fiscal demands of the State. Bonds of this
character should find ready takers among tlie
people, thus keeping tho vast sum* annually
paid as interest iu our own limits, to build
up our industrii© and at re ug then the sinews
of our prosperity. But does not the quo*
tion a© to our immediate necessities suggest
illicit? Will tbe provisions ot the Nutting bill
afford relie fus early a* ditiiiable ? In the ittj*e
will not our financial int< rests suffer, and will
not the delay endanger their fiivurublu negotia
tion.
Our rcMOUvecM are vast, our State credit, until
tho reign of thieves aud oarji't-Uiggers com
menced, had never been questioned, and our
bonds commanded willing takers at moderate
rate© ot interest. The purity and stability of
our pm-unt administration will reinstate Geor
gia again into her former prestige, and her
bond* and seeuvities will command a value com
mensurate with her honor, stability aud re
source*.

M'hy cannot Georgia wake up to th* impor
tance of this enterprise ? Our resources are vast
enough to subsidize a half dozen lines of steam
ship* in the interest of immigration. With dis
creet financial management Georgia could have
set on I nit her plans tor immigration,so that by

CAFE© OF *▲* —UKRTAUmara -OMKIRVS AND CA
SYSTEM, ETC.
'1 he first af© wan eAtablished hr the Turk© at
MaiwaiUee in 1654 and ©rion afterward©, Uie ex
cellent lievcragc, coffee, was indulged in by his
Royal Highness, Louis XIV. Madiiuo .$< vigne
thought the use of Turkish coffee would be
ephemeral a© the plays of yonng Racine. But
time In is proven the predictions of the learned
Mudniue utterly untrue, as Racine’s tragedies
will live forever among the brightest ornament*
ot French literature, and a* for “cafe noir," what
would Paris und the world be without it.
The modem cafe of Pali© must not he more
than one hundred years old. Originally, only
coffee e rns to have been indulged in, but of
late years w ine and even liquor* are sold at these
famous resorts of the metropolis. The history
of the cafe t<*ll© nearly the history of the French
nation; for here poet*, philosophers, scholars
and historians have gathered lor year* gone by
and sipped their coffee, exchanged ideas on pol
itics, government and the current topics of the
capital. It is quite probable the scheme of the
great Revolution of 1783 was ooucocttd at the
Cafe Procojie. Every night, might have been
seen the trail figure of tlie immortal.ban Jacques
Rousseau bending over tlie chess board, and
! though considered u poor player, be. never lost a
game.
During the reign of Napolean 111, the most
noted uud historic, was the Odfe de Madrid, at
which the ill-fated Rochefort, of the Commune,
was often ©eon a visitor.
So where doe© the Frenchman feel so much
at home, sipping his win# or coffee for hours, as
at these favorite places of resort Gate life, in
deed, is quite a h qfuie in Pari*, aud when light
ed up At night, w ith their mirrors and fnmooen,
with thousands of people sitting in front und
sqiokmg, talking or walking by, there is no
scene on earth more nnnimuted or picturesque.
The nights are made as bright a© duv, by the
glare of the gas-lights. The long rows of syca
more tree©, the wide pavement© und clean broad
streets crowded with thousands of carriage© with
their lanterns lit iu aplendor, make up a w ene
incomparably bountiful, to be enjoyed no w here
on earth, except in Puri©.
A restaurant is similar if not the same thing
a* a cafe. It differs probably in this; iu the
original intent or purpose of its establish incut.
At a restaurant you not only get coffee, wine
and liquor, but you oun order a square meal,
making it ax substantial or delicate as your
wants may require. Them are many excellent
establishments of this kind in the Puluis Royal
and ull over Puris. Many of them are quite ex
pensive.
Theft- is nothing we found iu the city so lux
urious aud so reasonable, ns the carriugva, one
and t wo-hoi *e phtetun*. that stand waiting iu
front of hotels and public places,always ready to
serve you ala course, or by the hour, at fixed
price©. Ala course, 30c., that is, from your ho
tel to the railroad station; by the hour, 40c. in
the city, and 50c. outsid-. In New York, tlie
cost would be $5.00. The moment you step iu
the driver hand* his tariff, which he is required
to do ly law. There can be no swindling; the
curd show© exactly whiff you are to pay.
The omnibus lines, and there ore many in
Paris, carry possengi rs along nil the great tlior
oughfiuus, the distance of throe miles for six
cents. We rode yesterday from the Madeleine
to tho UuAtilo or Column of (Juiilet) July, on
top, second class for a mere trifle. It must be
four miles. We rod*, last week, fioin Palais
Royal to Guidin des Plantes, across the Heine,
for a couple ot sous.
'J here are no street railways in Paris aud we
hope never will be.
| In our next we will say sunn thing about
I French horse©, their blood and breeding.

-i terdny evening, was an exhaustive argument,full
i of statistic* und uilormation Ix aiing ou this im
portant question. We do not think, however,
the action of the Convention, so anxiously
! uwaittd by the present Legislature, will, at the
j present session, develop the question ot Direct
j Trade and Immigration in auy practicable shape.
| The euormou© emigration from Georgia the past
| twelve months was deeply deplored by several
i members of the Convention, aud measures were
! suggested to arrest the same, oh far aa possible,
j Gon. Colquitt's address was one of the most
j practical and sensible ever delivered before a
> Georgia assemblage.
Iu company with Mayor Alexander, we had ;
the pleasure ot visiting and examining tlif large |
manufactury of the popular Dickson Fertilizer |
Company, one mile from tho ©Sty, this morning,
and can recommend. to tin* planters of Georgia,
tho compouud made at these works,a* unequall
ed tor purity ol ingredients aud high standard of
manufacture.
The materials that enter into its composition
are bought from first hands, una< ulterated, und
arc mixed in a large bed, from which tho im- i
uictisc mill driven by a wheel that make© 000 j
revolutions a minute, is led by a number ol
hands. Jhe mixture, consistiug of IVruvian
Guam), Nova Scotia laud piaster, bones, rock
salt, acid. Ac., is carried from the mill to the
skvoud door, ou thi precise principle of a flour
ing mill, there boiled, and aiaceud© into sacks
below, which are weighed aud put immediately
on the cars which the different railroad compa
nies mu along side ot the factory.
Prvs. Gardner and Major AUxxndcr work in
cessantly, from morning till night, superintend
ing the entire business of the Company; and we
cannot too highly allude to these gentlemen, for
possessing consummate capacity, that fit them
to discharge their resp-'ctive duties successfully.
To these officers aud Mr. Stafford, we return our I
grateful acknowledgments tor courtesies extend- ’

Notwithstanding she has been the subject of

extremely sacrificing tor the good and comfort

years looked forward to death, not as a thing ot

It is an agency which makes the lalwr of oitt man equal to the labor of two.
It is an agency which makes one acre, under cultivation equal to two acres.
It is an agency which, it will be found by fair calculation, pays the consumer, with co"
present or even lower price, three to five dollars buck lor every dollar iu vested, and this wjl
period ot eight months time.
The above statements are not mere assertions, but are verified by more than seven year*
rience, aud are testified to by thousands of farmers aud planters throughout the Middle aud'
era States.
It it be true, us stated, that the crop is doubled by the use of this Guano, let us see what t’t

much more than a profit ot 100 per cent, on the money invested.
Let us calculate the profit. r lo arrive at the per cent, of profit on an investment, the '
must be divided into the net '/am. Now if ,in acre of ground will produce 150 pounds lull "'
without Soluble Pacific Guano, and will produce 300 jxmnds by the use of 2CO pounds S
Pacific Guano, then the increase from the use ot the Guano is 150 pounds lint cotton, the
which is the money v lue of '2OO pounds Guano. Hence, if we deduct the cost of the Gnare
the value of the 150 pounds cotton produced by it, we lave the net gain from its use; tbeii.
divide the cost ot the 200 pounds Guano into the net gain, we get the exact per eent. of i
Thus:
One hundred and fifty pounds lint Cotton, net gain from use of 200 pounds Soluble
Pacific Guano, at 17 cents per pound f
-300 pounds cotton seed, also net gain,
S'-
Deduct cost of 200 pounds Soluble Pacific Guano, cash price in Columbus, Ga., $56
per ton
Net profit r.
Now divide $5. GO net cost into $22.40 net gain, and the result is 400, which is 400 per cel
other words, for every dollar thus invested, five dollars are received in turn, one of which
original investment and tour are clear profit, thus being four for one, which is 400 per ert
not this a fair and correct showing? It not, where is the error'? Now, if it be true to ct
the above extent, Soluble Pacific Guano is an agency of the highest value to the aerieultnr
South.
The large fixed capital invested by this Company in this business furnishes the best gu
of continued excellence. I need only assure consumers that the Guano brought into mark'
season is precisely the. same in composition and quality as that heretofore sold. The Of
