The Infidel and His Daughter.
The damps of death are coming fast,
My father, o’er m y brow;
The past with all its scenes has fled.
And I must turn me now
To that dim future, which in vain
My feeble eyes decry, _
Tell me, my father, in this hour,
In whose stern faith to die ?
In thine ? I’ve watched the scornful smile
And heard thy withering tone.
Whene’er the Christian’s humble hope
Was placed above thine own;
I’ve heard thee speak of coming death
Without a shade of gloom
And laugh at all the childish fears
That cluster round the tomb.
Or is it in my mother’s faith ?
How fondly do I trace,
Through many a weary year long past,
That calm and saintly face!
How often do I call to mind,
Now she is ’neath the sod,
The place, the hour, in which she drew
My early thoughts to God!
’Twas then she took this sacred book,
And from its burning page, , ,
Head how its truths support the soul
In youth and failing age ;
And bad me in its precepts live,
And by its precepts die,
That I might share a home of love
In worlds beyond the sky.
My father, shall I look above,
Amid this gathering gloom.
To Him whose promises of love
Extend beyond the tomb ?
Or. curse the Being who hath blessed
This checkered path of mine,
And promises eternal rest;
And die, my sire, in thine ?
The frowns upon that warrior brow
Passed like a cloud away,
And tears coursed down the rugged cheek,
That flowed not ti If that day.
“ Not, not, in mine,” with choking voice,
The skeptic made reply;
“ But, in thy mother’s holy faith,
My daughter, may’st thou die.”

AGENTS WANTED.
Every Family to be Canvassed.
WE want local Agents everywhere, and

The C/livistian Age,

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
tian 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, aud as the
possessor of the highest order of Literary
ability, that his name is a tower of strength
to our enterprise; aud 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 publish a sur
passingly Christian Newspaper. We
shall endeavor to make each weekly issue
transcend its predecessor
Dlt. DEEMS’ ; SERMONS.
It is proposed to publish once a month
or oftener, a full report or abstract of a
Sermon or Lecture bj Rev. Dr. Deems.
Thus the thousands from dinerent parts of
the land who crowd the “ Church of the
Strangers” will have a memorial of the
service which tney attended, or the repre •
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

“EXCELSIOR
GUANO,”
COMPOSED OF
Dissolved Bones, 1,300 lbs.
Peruvian Guano, 600 “
Muriate of Soda, 100 “
(Patented.)
I CLAIM 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.LiEßiG,
of Baltimore; Prof. Shepard, Inspector o!
Fertilizers for the State of South Carolina;
also to Col. Rains, Inspector at Augusta.
1 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. I 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, IIN 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 the
roots of plants more readily.

about 150 pounds per acre, on 25 acres of

ever used in my life, making the best yield
I had ever received from any Fertilizer. 1
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

other commercial manures last season, but
touted it with two different brands two
years ago, anci 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
