Three Kisses of Farewell.
BY SAXE HOLM.
Three, only three, my darling,
Separate, solemn, slow;
Not like the swift and joyous ones
Wp num] tnnw *
When we kissed because we loved each
other,
Simply to taste love’s sweet,
And lavished our kisses as the Summer
lavishes heat
hut as they kiss whose hearts are wrung, i
When hope and fear are spent,
And nothing is left to give, except
A sacrament!
First o', the three, ray darling,
Is sacred unto pain;
We have hurt; each other often;
We shall again.
When we pine because we miss each other,
And do not understand,
How the written words are so much colder
Than eye and hand.
I kiss thee, dear, for all such pain
Which wo may give or take;
Buried, forgiven, before it comes
For our love’s sake!
The second kiss, my darling,
Is full of joy’s sweet thrill;
We have blessed each other always;
We always will.
We shall reach until wo feel each other
Past ail of time and space;
We shall listen till we near each other
In every place;
The earth is ijall of messengers,
Which love sends to and fro;
I kiss thee, darling, for all joy
Which wo shall know!
The last kiss, oh, my darling,
My love—l cannot see
Through my tears as I remember
What it may be.
We may die, and never see each other—
Die with no time to give
Any sign that our hearts are faithful
To die as live!
Token of what they will not see
Who see our parting breath,
This one last kiss, my darling, seals
The seal of death!

Pause, young man! You want to
get married, and it is about time you
did. But recollect that unmarried men
don’t have to sit up all night onco a
week with a shot-gun watching the
clothes line.

“EXCELSIOR

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 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 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, LINER,
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.

Sir : 1 have been asked my opinion In re
gard to BUSEY’S “ EXCELSIOR GUANO,
and in reply will say I used it ou my last
year’s crop of cotton, witli other standard
Fertilizers, but 1 never found any of them
equal to the BUSEY’S. lam sut shed it is a
No. l article, and expect to give it the
preference tho present year.
Respectfully, R R BAEKSI>ALIJ .

17. G. Busey, Aiken, 8. C.:
Dear Sir: Yours just received. I pur
chased from Daniel & Rowland, last Spring
two tons BUSEY’S and am well pleased
wit h tho results. On nineteen acres of thin
sandy land 1 made nine bales of cotton.
Land measured and cotton sold to Daniel
,t Rowland. Very truly,

Dear Sir: In reply to your inquiry as
to the effect of your EXCELSIOR
GUANO ” last season, I state that 1 used
about 150 pounds per acre, on 25 acres ol
poor worn-out laud. The result was four
teen (14) bales of cotton, averaging 415
pounds each. I consider it in every re
spect, a iirst-class Fertilizer.
Very respectfully,
M. A. RANSOM.
Barnett, Ga., January 28, 1875.
Dear Sir: 1 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.
Respectfully, J- H. WALKER.

Mr. 17. G. Busey.
I was very much pleased with the Guano
bought of Daniel <fc Rowland—“ BUSEY’S
EXCELSIOR,” and expect to use it again
this year’if I 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. 1 have used several other kinds
of Guano, but think yours did better than
any I have ever tried. Respectfully,
J. A. lAYIAJK.
Barnett, Ga., January 27, 1875.
This is to certify that l havo uso
“BUSEY’S EXCELSIOR” GUANO for sev
oral yoars 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 rnyseir since ™£. piLCHm
Barnett. Ga., January 30, 1875.

17. 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 !
ever used in my life, making tho best yield
I had ever received from any Fertilizer. 1
used last year ono 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.
V 7. G. Busey, Esq.
Dear Sir: Your favor requesting the re
sult of your Guano on my cottou crop last
season is at hand. I made no test with
other commercial manures last season, but
to-ted it with two different brands two
years ago, and the result was greatly m
favor of your Guano, and I was equally as
well pleased with it last season, and judg
ing from tdst rows that it enhanced the
value of this crop considerably. The exces
sively hot weather in August proved fatal
in tills vicinity. T 9 those wisiiing to use
Guano, I feel no delicacy in commending it
as a first-class Fertilizer, to be excelled by
alum.
Thomson, Ga., January 29,1875.
Mr. 17. G. Buseu.
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^
