KINGSLEY.
January 24th.
PRESTON.
One voice the less to plead with men
For God’s down-trodden poor;
One hand the less to wield the pen
With aim so bold and sure;
One heart the less to pity when
The ill was past his cure!
Through Britain’s length of island strand—
From bald Ben Lomond’s head
To Devon’s reach of silvery sand—
The sudden tidings spread;
And there was shadow on the land,
Because this man was dead.
How had that active brain been stressed,
That tender heart been wi ung!
What eloquence had poured its zest
Through that persuasive tougue,
The hoary wrongs might be redressed,
And Work’s true idyl sung!
With life scarce past its equinox,
Its shortening days still fair,
We stagger at the blow that mocKs
The deeds he yet might dare, „
—Who now will bid the Alton Lockes
Rise from their grim despair.
What arm will fling the banner high
On which the legend ran :
•* Room in the lists to light or die!
—Let conquer him who can!
What lips take up his tilting cry:
The Brotherhood of Man!”
Full fairly has he won his prize—
A prize the proud may scorn
That thousand honest English eyes,
Once hopeless and forlorn.
To-day lift brighter to the skies,
Because this man was born.
Too busied with his ends to weigh
The charm or cheat of fame,
—While routed wrong maintained the fray,
Unsought the guerdon came;
—The wires that coil the world to-day
All vibrate with his name!
An inch on a man’s nose is proverb
ially of some account, and M. Derrisart,
of Paris, is likely to know of exactly
what account. His nose has taken to
growing lately, and grew half an inch
in eight days. He is at the Hotel Dieu,
in Paris, and all the surgeons of France
are rushing thither to see him.

printed, unsectional, unsectarian, a record
of Cnristian 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, and as the
possessor of the highest order of Literary
ability, that his name is a 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 dinerent parts of
the land who crowd the “ Church of the
Strangers” will have a memorial of the
service which they 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 ail
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
rx> 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 iar as we can. Terms, Circulars, etc.
sent to any address.
If you want to make money, try it *

“EXCELSIOR
GUANO,”
COMPOSED OF

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 eountry.Dr. Liebig,
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 kuown 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 DRXER, lINER,
LIGHTER, AND CONTAINS LliSB MOIS
TURE. It contains more ORGANIC MAT
TER, being made of Bones and Guano,
and not of Rock Phosphate. 'lhe 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.

Dear Sib: I used 700 pounds of your
Guano on fifteen acres of land, which made
8 bales of cotton, weighing 466 pounds. I
consider it a first-class Guano.
B ipectfully, J. H. WALKER.
Mf arrenton, Ga., January 28, 1875.
Mr. >7. G. Busey. , „
I was very much pleased with the Guano
bought of Daniel A Rowland—“ BUSEY S
EXCELSIOR,” and expect to use it again
this year if I can get it.
Barnett, Ga., January 27, 1875.
Dear Sir : I used one ton of your Guano
last year. I have used several other kinds
of Guano, but think yours did better than
any I have ever tried. Jlejspe^ctfully,^
Barnett, Ga., January 27, 1875.
This is to certify that I have use
“BUSEY’S EXCELSIOR” GUANO for sev
eral years past, and from actual test with
fifteen different kinds, I do not hesitate to
pronounce it fully equal to any, if not the
very best, of all the manipulated Guanos
used by myself since th^ w | n PILCHER .
Barnett. Ga., January 30,1875.
Dear Sir: lusod your Guano last year,
and liked it as well as any 1 have ever used;
think it a first-class Guano.
Respectfully, J. F. HUBERT.

W. G. Busey, Ksq.
Dear Sir : Yours to hand asking my tes
timonial of your Guano. I used it in the
year 1872, and I thought it was the best 1
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; tout it was
owing to seasons. If it is kept to its origi
nal standard, I think it one of if not the
best I have ever found for my lamd.
Respectfully, T. J. PILCHER.
Barnett, Ga., January 27,1875.
W. G. Busey, Esq.
Dear Sir: Your favor requesting the re
sult of your Guano on my cotton crop !ast
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 6t 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,
THOMAS ALLEN.
Thomson, Ga., January 20,1875.
Mr. W. G. Busey.
Dear Sir: The Busey’s Guano stood at
the top of the list, as to good results, of all
the Guanos I used. Yours, Ac.
