EPITAPHS :
THE RAILROAD AND STEAMBOAT STYLE.
Tiie New York Sunday Times suggests that it
would be a good idea to places crdeloenriiig hi> appro
priate epitaph at die locality of each railroad accident,
a)a gentle intimation to passengers of the peril of their
situation, and a continual memento of the uncertainty
of life on railroads. It is true that the nmlticiplicity of
cuneiform indicators might in the course of time be at
tended with some inconvenience, but the advantage
would he gained of pointing out to the traveler the road
where he would meet the fewest crosses, and conse
quently stand the best chaiveof security. The Times
olforsn sow samplesot the style of epitaph which should
be selected, as follows :
“ A sudden pitch
Fro.n a misplaced switch
Laid me dead in this ditch.”
*’ Off the track the engine rushed—
Some were drowned and I was crushed.”
“Here repose two victims sta-ked
At one blow by the same snakehead.”
“ What is life ? ’Tis but a vision.
Here I died by a collision.
Twenty more died by ihe same.
Verdict— ‘ Nobody to blame.’”
“ f isier, mother,a.,nt and me
Were run over. Here we be.
YVe should have had tune to mizzle,
Had they blown the engine’s whistle.”
“Sweeping round a curve
Whose outer flexture bordered an abyss,
The cars were canted do n the precipice,
And seven of us ki led. But what of that 1
’ I’was the curve did it. And ihe engineer,
Being upon a bender, was excused.”
Train borne traveler, rushing by,
As thou passetb pipe thine eye.
Here a car, well filled with freight,
Killed sixteen and wounded eight.
For a moment,lriends, be weepers,
As you pass the railroad sleepers.
You may share our late —why not 1
Ere you reach the next depot.”
“Here a re deposited the bones,
(The flesh being turn off,)
Os an unknown man,
Who being deaf, blind and lame,
Neglected to obey the customary signals,
And was run ever ns a punishment

VoI.XXX. No. 1.
From (he Mark Lane (Eng.) Express.
. Guano.
The following remarks by Mr. Hazelwood, who has
spent mncii of his time in Peru, are instructive and in
teresting:
The superiority of the Peruvian guano over all oth
ers is nowfully established, and it is not likely that any
other locality will be discovered producing a guano of
so high a value ; because, first, it must be wheie there
are large shoals of fish, to form food for the birds;
secondly, it must be far from the usual haunts of men,
or else the birds would be frightened; thirdly, it must
be on a cost where the rains are unknown, otherwise
the ammonia willbe washed out,and ouly the phosphate
of lime will be left; fourthly,it must be on an island, or
e:?e it will be mixed with sand and earth; and fifthly,
it must he easily acces-ible to shipping. If the locality
does not possess all these points, it cannot compete
with the guano of Peru, which possesses them in a
very eminent degree. Senior Francisco de Rivero,the
representative of the Peruvian Government st the court
of Sst. James , has a thorough knowledge of the guano
islands, and of the other deposits on the sea coast
In a report made by bint to bis government, he es
timated the quantity on the three islands alone at 18,-
230,000 tons; and though such an amount appears
enormous, still we are not the only nation who buy it.
Contracts have just been entered into for the United
States and for France, and others are under conside
ration. On ih-’ other hand, vve must not forget that the
b.rdsan .u ittie tin airbed, and are therefor® stiii en
g.tg* -i in elaborating small fish invaluable manure tor the
agriculturists'!! all nations. The guano islands are en
tire y devoid of the smallest appearance of vegetaiion ;
not a tree, not a blade of grass, not a lichen enlivens
the spot. The earth, it there is any on the rocks, is
buried at leas! thirty feet in guano. And yet these
islan t s enjoy tin r own peculiar blessings under the
hand oi tire A minhty, for a short residence on them
speedily relieves -ufferrrs from the gout,gravel, urinary
complaints, and particularly those horrible diseases the
scurvy, lepro y, and king’s evil. Many wonderful
cures are on record, occasioned by a residence there,
doubtless owing to the atmosphere being at all tunes
saturated with ammoniacal panicles. Perhaps the
medical world will look to this, and determine ih
cause o: the effect. In the supplementto the Rev. Mr.
Rham’s” Diet ionary ol the Farm,” is the best description
1 have met with ot the Guano Islands, and of the gen
eral history of the manure. Not only is it correct as
to its local fact-', as tar as my knowledge of the subject
will permit me to judge,but it is als written in very
readablelanguage, which isa great comfort when study
ing such a dry, and to the general reader,uninteresting
subject. Regarding ihe future supply, lam happy to in
form you that there does not exist the smallest shadow of
doubt in the minds of those best informed on the subject,
that the quantity of guano is almost inexhauatinle.and
that, al the present rale of consumption, there i9 am
ple for the next three generations. So anxious was
the Peruvian Government on this particular, that it
was not until avert eluboraie survey had been made of
the Guano Islands, that the government decided on
allowing any enlarged export of this manure, becauss
in that country it is regarded as a direct boon from
heaven, as without it the sterile plains of sand which
constiiute the principal part of the sea coast could not
be cultivated ; but under its influence, combined with
irrigation and a tropical sun, three distinct and separate
crops are taken from the fi-lds The Indian Incas
preserved the guano with religions care ; the Spanish
conquerers more zealously followed in their fotsteps;
and their descendants ot the present day, in their turn,
act up to the same strict rules, and neither permit the
birds to be disturbed, nor the guano to re removed,
even by the Peruvians, without a special license. At
one period, it was death to disturb the birds during the
breeding season—a very good proof that the natives
knew the full value of trie birds. The demand for
guano on the continent of Ear- pe.nnd in the United
S:ates. estimated at 14,000 tons, was in the year 1851,
larger than had been improved in this country only fiv®
vears ago. This is a very significant fact. Let us look
at the steady growth in the import ot the genuine gu
ano, commencing w ith the year.

And 1 am happy to add that,thanks to the increasing
numbers of steamers now employed between California
and Valparaiso,and consequently to the demand for
coal as fuel,ithe amount of tonnage seeking a return
Ireighi from the west coast of America is largely in
creasing. A regular business is springing up, limited
to carrying out coals and bringing back guano. It ia
one in which the ship owner can perhaps with more
safety calculate the ultimate result than on any other de
scription ol Ireight. The surest method of obtaining
the guano unadulterated is, tor the farmers in each lo
cality to club together, and buy at once thirty tons of it
direct from Messrs. Anthony Gibbs &. Sons,and thus
obtain it at .£9 5?., and get the allowance of the dis
count of 24 per ceni., thus reducing the price in reality
to £9 Os. sd. And be it observed that any one who has
purchased thirl v tons at once is regarded as a wholesale
dealer, and fully entitled to obtain a smalle quantity at
the minimum rate of £’9 0s 5d., provided that the ap
plication tor it is made in the course of a lew weeks
afterwards. The nature of guano is now much belter
understood than it wa* a few years ago. Attention in
the smallest degree to the propertiesof guano would do
do much to put stop to the nelarious being car
ried on in the adulteration of guano. One of the sim
plest is that oi Mr. Nesbit, and I beg to repeat it, al
though it is not two months ago sinde he himself placed
it before you,
METHODS OF DETECTING ADULTERATIONS IN GUANO
Procure from any druggist a common wide-mouthed
bottle, with a solid glass stopper; one known by drug
gists as it wide-mouthed 6 oz. bottle will do very well.
Let this bottle be filled with ordinary water, the stopper
inserted, and the exterior well dried. Thescales to be
used ought to turn well with a couple of grains. In one
pan of the scales place the bottle, and exactly counter
poise it in th; other by shot, sand, or gravel. Remove
the bottle from the scale, pour out two-thirds of the
water, and pul in four ounces avoirdupoise of the guano
lo be tested. Agitate the bottle, adding now and then
a little more water;let it rest a couple of minutes,and
till with water so tliat all the froth escapes from the
bottle ; insert the stopper carefully ; wipe dry, and place
the bottle n the same scale from which it was taken.—
A ol now to thee u t r;-iised scale 14 ounce avcird®-
potse and a lou>penny piece ; and if the bottle prove the
heavier, the guano is in HI probability, adit derated.—
Add, in addition,a threepenny piece ;and it the bottle
and the guano pu ve the heavier, the guano is certain
tainly adulterated By this simple experiment a very
small admixture of sand, marl, &c., is distinctly
shown.
California an Agricultctal State—The San
Francisco Christian Adv< cate thusspeaks of the agri
cultural advantages oi California:
“The arable hunts of our new Slate are perhaps ten
fold greater than was at first supposed. Two years
since, when the excitement of the mines pervaded this
and almost every other country, it was difficult to ar
rest the solrer attention of a man long enough to get a
question answered upon tlte subject, and then the whole
answer pointed to San Jose, or someone or two other
valleys, w Inch were believed to embrace the whole of our
farming lauds. Now, however, we hearol Los Ange
los, Sun Juan, San Jose, Martinez, the Sn Joaquin,
of vast extent and fertility. Tulare Lake, Calaveras,
Sacramento and its tributaries, not a few norot stnail
magnitude,especially the upper Sacramento, Suiston,
Napa, Sonoma, Bodega, Russian River,and numerous
others, which time iatls to mention, while you scarcely
‘meet a miner or other persons, who have travelled into
the interior, but that jou hear of other more b auttlul
and fertile valleys Th sis no fancy sketch ;it is sober
reality. These beam iful valleys,, too, are being dotted
with farms, and orchards, and beautified with ladies
and children. We piedict tor California one ol the
richest and most beam tul agricultural scenes upon
which the eyes of man has ever rested.”
JFW’ We give the “ Britishers” a hit, now and then,
when they come over here from the “ other side,” with
their pompous airs and their querulous comments ; but
now and then “ they of tire adverse faction ” touch us
a little on the raw. “ Par exantp.we couldn’t deny
that this was not a veritable fact, when we heard it
mentioned as such by an English gentleman the other
evening. “One of my fellow passengers,” he said,
“ last autumn m the ‘ Atlantic,’ was a genuine speci
men ot the true Yankee. He had visited England for
the sake of seeing the ‘ World’s Fair,’ and of nothing
else could he, or at least did he, speak. After dinner,
one duy.the convetsation turned upon works of art

Courting Distinction.—The Cuban prisoners have
made the North American Hotel, New York, their
head quarries. They - field a meeting yesterday, and
resolved “that each member wear a small blue ribbon,
attached to a piece of black crape, on the left breast
of his coat,” in memory of their lost comrades, and to
distinguish them as members of the Cuban prisoners.
