[Sarah Doudney, In Sunday at Home.
After the Storm.
Patience! for the strife is o’er;
Weary wave and dying blast
Beat and moan around the shore!
Peace must come at last.
Lo! the sea gull’s silver wing
Flashes in the sunset gold;
Wait, another mom shall bring
Gladness, as of old.
Sunlight on the yellow strand,
Shadows lying still and clear.
Pearly fringes on the sand,
Murmurs, sweet to hear.
Storms of life must have their way
Ere these changeful years may cease;
Foam and tempest for to-day.
And to-morrow, peace.
Never, till the fight is won,
And the bitter draught is drained,
Never, till the storm is done, .
Shall thy rest be gained.
Waves and winds fulfil His word:
'i hou like them, shall do His will,
Waiting till His voice is heard.
Saying, “ Peace, be still.
[Baltimore Sun—Death Column.
A Poetic Tribute.
Cold as a statue, forever at rest,
Are the gloveless hands that are crossed
on her breast ;
Sweet lv the wind as a harp in the tree,
Breathless a glad strain'.o’er .the .worn
heart set free;
Whose trouble was long and whose sorrow
was deep,
E’er the good Dord came as she lay asleep.
But sorrow and trouble and pain are o’er,
For the cold, still form shall rise no more;
For the soul looks down from a heavenly
place
On a silent heart and a beautiful face.
There is nothing more hazardous
than to be bothering an irritable wo
man on wash day.

“EXCELSIOR
GUANO,”
COMPOSED OF

(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.LiEßio,
of Baltimore; Prof. Shepard, Inspector of
Fertilizers for tho 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. 1 ciaim it is tho
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, i INER,
LIGHTER, AND CONTAINS LESS MOIS
TURE. It contains more ORGANIC WAI
TER, being made of Bones and Guano,
and not or Rock Phosphate. 'J he Phos
phate ot Lime in it is better than that ob
tained from rocks, and is taken up by the
roots of plants more readily.

Dear Sir : Yours of the 2Gth at hand. In
regard to your inquiries about Guano, I do
not think I gave BUSEY’S GUANO a fair
trial. I put half as much of it to the acre
as I did of Cotton Food, the results were
about the same. I thought it stronger than
the Cotton Food and put less.

Sir : I have been asked my opinion in re
gal’d to BUSEY’S “ EXCELSIOR GUANO,”
and in reply will fay I used it on my last
year’s crop of cotton, with other standard
Fertilizers, but I never found any of them
equal to the BUSEY’S. lam sat stied it is a

preference the present year.

Dear Sir: In reply to your inquiry as
to the effect ot your “ EXCELSIOR
GUANO ” last season, I state that I used
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.
Very respectfully,

Dear Sir: 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 iirst-class Guano. „„„
Respectfully, J. H. WALKER.
Warbenton, Ga., January 28, 1875.
Mr. IV. G. Busey. .
I was very much pleased with the Guano
bought of Daniel & Rowland—“ BUSEY’S
EXCEL iOli,” and expect to use it again
this year if 1 can get it.
Very truly, yours,
THOMAS L. WHEELER.
Barnett, Ga., January 27, 1875.
Dear Sir : 1 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. Respectfully,
J. A. TAYLOR.
Barnett, Ga., January 27, 1875.
This is to certify that 1 have use
‘‘BUSEY’S EXCELSIOR” GUANO for sev
eral years past, and from actual test with
fifteen different kinds, 1 do not hesitate to
pronounce it fully equal to auy, if not the
very best, of all the manipulated Guanos
used by myself since the war.

Dear Sib : 1 used your Guano last year,
aud liked it as well as any 1 have ever used;
think it a first-class Guano.

Dear Sir: 1 consider your “EXCEL
SIOR GUANO” a most excellent manure.

Dear Sir : Yours to hand asking ray tes- j
timoninl of your Guano. I used it in the
year 1872, and I thought it was the best 1
ever used in my life, making tho 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
nal standard, I think it one of if not the
best l have ever found for my land.
Respectfully, T. J. PILCHER.
Barnett, Ga., January 27, 1875.
IV. G. Busey, Esq.
Dear Sir : Your favor requesting the re
sult of your Guano on my cotton crop last
season is t hand. I made no test with
other commercial manures last season, but
te-ted 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
iu 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.
