After the Hurricane.
The following sonnet, by Paul H. Hayne,
has been highly commended as “a remark
able piece of color” by perhaps the most
fastfdious and exacting of all the Northern
critics:
Last eve, the earth was calm, the Heavens
were clear;
A peaceful glory crowned the waning
West,
And yonder distant mountain’s hoary
crest ~
The semblance of a silvery robe did wear,
Shot through with moon-wrought tissues;
far and near,
Wood, rivulet, field, all Nature’s face ex
pressed
The haunting presence of enchanted rest;
One twilight star shone like a blissful tear.
Unshed; but now, what ravage in a night!
Yon mountain height fades in its cloud
girt pale; , ...
The prostrate wood lies smirched with
rain and mire; ,
Thro’ the shorn fields the brook whirls,
wild and white.
While o’er the desolate waste, and wood
land pale
Glares the red sunrise, blurred with mists
of fire!
Sabtoris.— The Washington gymna
sium has anew member in Algernon C.
F. Sartoris. As the feat of standing
on tho head, with the heels touching
the side of the wall, has long been the
boast of tho gymnasts of that city, the
country will await anxiously the debut
of this lithe young foreigner, who is
said to be able to turn a tolerable
hand-spring when in good condition.
“ Now, boys, suppose twelve men di
vide bushels of corn equal
ly, how many is that for each ?” Bold
est boy : “ Please, sir, we’ve not gone
that far.” “ Your teacher told me you
had learned all the first four rules.”—
Boy : “ Yes, sir ; but we have always
done our sums in potatoes and turnips;
we never had any corn.”

AGENTS WANTED.
—— ♦
Every Family to be Canvassed..
WE want local Agents everywhere, and
one General Agent in each State, for
R?lie Christian Age,
a weekly Journal of 16 pages, beautifully
printed, unsectional, unsectarian, a record
of Christian Thought, Effort and Progress;
of Current Literature and News; of Finance
and Commerce. It is to supply all Cris
ti&u Families througnout the enuntry just
such a metropolitan paper as they need.
Our Editor-in-Chief,
CHARLES F. DEEMS. D- D.,
is so widely known as a ripe scholar, an el
oquent and popular Divine, an earnest
worker in the cause of Christ, and as the
possessor of the highest order of Literary
ability, that his aameisa tower of strength
to our enterprise; and supported by the
eminent and efficient corps of assistants
that he has called to his aid, we have no
hesitation inasserting that, in point of Edi
torial excellence, we shall puolish a sur
passingly Christian Newspaper. We
shall endeavor to make each weekly issue
transcend its predecessor
DR. DEEMS’ .SERMONS.
It is proposed to publish once a month
or oftener, a full report or abstract of a
Sermon or Lecture by Rev. Dr. Deems.
Thus the thousands from diuerent parts of
the land who crowd the "Church of the
Strangers” will have a memorial of the
service which tfiey attended, or the repro
duction of some other discourse from the
same preacher. The CHRISTIAN AGE is
furnished at $3 a year, and to each sub
scriber is given the great Historical En
graving :
THE FOUNDERS AND PIONEERS OF
METHODISM.
It contains 250 portraits of leading Meth
odists in all parts of the world, and in all
its branches; artistically arranged in an
oval picture, for the walls of the drawing
room.
We want only active Agents, those who
will do the work thoroughly. We give ex
clusive control of territory, and do not wish
to waste our field upon poor agents, and
will insist upon active work, regular and
prompt reports, and a strict following of
our terms and instructions; and if this is
done, there is no business you can engage
in, with anything like the same capital, and
make as much money, in these times, or
make it as easily. We give as much terri
tory as an agent can handle to advantage,
and give the territory desired and called
for, so far as we can. Terms, Circulars, etc.
sent to any address.
If you want to make money, try it!
Remittances by Mail should be made by
Registered Letters or Drafts, or Post Office
Orders. Drafts or Orders should be made
payable to the "Christian Age.” Post
Office Money Orders should be made paya
ble at Station D, New York.
Send ten cents for specimen number.

“EXCELSIOR
GUANO,”
COMPOSED OF
Dissolved Bones, 1,300 lbs.
Peruvian Guano, 600 “
Muriate of Soda, 100 “
(Patented.)
I CL AIM for the above Fertilizer that it is
richer in the elements valuable to
the Cotton Planter than any article sold in
Georgia or the Carolinas. To establish this
claim I refer to analyses of the best Agri
cultural Chemists in the country,Dr.LiEßio,
of Baltimore; Prof. Shepard, Inspector of
Fertilizers for the State of South Carolina;
also to Col. Rains, Inspector at Augusta.
I refer to Planters who have tested it with
almost every article known in the market.
In many instances using two pounds to one
against me. .1 claim it is the
CHEAPEST,
though high priced, because In each pound
of it there is as much valuable material as
in two pounds of any of the cheap rock
phosphates. IT IS DRYER. FIN Eli,
LIGHTER, AND CONTAINS LESS MOIS
TURE. It contains more ORGANIC MAT
TER, being made of Bones and Guano,
and not of Rock Phosphate. The Phos
phate of Lime in it is better than that ob
tained from rocks, and is taken up by tiie
roots of plants more readily.

Dear Sib: In reply to inquiry as
to the effect of your EXCELSIOR

about 150 pounds per acre, on 25 acres of
poor worn-out land. The result was four
teen (14) bales of cotton, averaging 415
pounds each. I consider it in every re
spect, a first-class Fertilizer.

timonial of your Guano. I used it in the
year 1872, and I thought it was the best !
ever used in my life, making the best yield
I had ever received from any Fertilizer. I
used last year one ton, and while it did
well, not so well as before; but it was
owing to seasons. If it is kept to its origi
nal standard, I think it one of if not the
best l have ever found for my land.___

IF. G. Busey, Esq.
Dear Sir : Your favor requesting the re
sult of your Guano on my cotton crop last
season is at hand. I made no test with
other commercial manures last season, but
tested it with two different brands two
years ago, and the result was greatly in
favor of your Guano, and I was equally as
well pleased with it last season, and judg
ing from test rows that it enhanced the
value of this crop considerably. The exces
sively hot weather in August proved fatal
in this vicinity. To those wishing to use
Guano, I feel no delicacy in commending it
as a first-class Fertilizer, to be excelled by
none. Respectfully,
