CONSTITUTIONALIST.
AUGUSTA. Q-A.
FRIDAY MORNING. FEB. 5.1869
THE GREAT MORAL NORTH.
If the North is famous for one thing more
than another it is its philanthropy. If
negro babies on the Guinea coast want cal
ico shirts, who so alert to supply these
wants as the North? If any foreign peo
ple attempt to rebel against established
government, who so prompt to rally, en
courage and contribute to the success of
rebellion abroad as the loyal saints of the
North? But who so stern and austere
cans at Home ? Who so ma
lignant, devilish aud reluctant when “re
bellion ” touches their own dominion ? We
have had evidence piled moamtain high to
prove these allegations. We leave the
larger part of such testimony to the memo
ry of Southern people. We give the freshest
record of barbarity as a sample of the
whole. Read this from the Oneida (N. Y.)
Union:
“ We this week present to our readers the
last portion ot the evidence in the Church
poor house matter, which is the most sickening
and disgraceful of all. A careful perusal of
this testimony shows that cruelty and barbari
ties were inflicted upon the inmates by this
man Church, that causes the heart to beat and
the pulse to throb with pity and fiery indigna
tion. This evidence shows that the paupers
were poorly fed, and forced to eat meat which
was putrid and badly decayed, aud were not
allowed butter but once a week. They were
given but so many minutes in which to eat,
and if caught eating longer were booted and
driven away from the table. Women and chil
dren have been shut np in cells for weeks upon
bread aud water, without fire, for the most
petty offenses. Old men and women were
forced to labor when scarcely able to stand
upon their feet. In fine, crime and cruelty,
licentiousness and libertinism run riot, with
the reins thrown loose.”
BEAUTIFUL LEGISLATION.
One of the bogus Congressmen from
South Carolina made a speech the other
day Ostensibly, his harangue was on the
question of “ Switeler vs. Anderson the
contested Missouri case. Really, it was a
lying diatribe against the whites of Caroli
na. Not having, in the most distant man
ner, touched the point at issue, after 45
minutes of howling, the following debate
ensued:
“ Mr. Woodward—l rise to a point of order.
I have listened attentively to this discourse,
and have not heard one word in respect to the
pending case. 1 make the point that it is not
order for the gentleman to discuss elections in
South Carolina on the question now pending.
“ Mr. Whittemore—l am speaking in general
of the questions involved.
"Mx. Woodward —I insist on my point of or
der.
“The Speaker pro t •■m D ore (Mr. Scofield in
the chair)— The chair overrules vw D oint of or
der. 8o far as the chair has given attenevon to
the remarks of the gentleman lrom South Car
olina, they seem to be something about elec
tions.
“ Mr. Woodward—They are in reference to
elections in South Carolina, and not this elec
tion in Missouri.
“ The Speaker pro tempore —The chair has not
been giving particular attentiou to them.”
It is very plain l'roin this revelation that
King Caucus has rendered all controversy
a nullity inside the House of Representa
tives ; and it. bcctvkj Terr clear } Ll.ifct. a
carpet-bagger or scalawag, may speak for
Buncombe, if he wills it, but need not trou
ble himself with the belief that anything
coming out of his head runs permanently
in the head of the Speaker.
“ABSOLUTE EQUALITY."
Wisconsin has elected a Senator named
Matt. H. Carpenter, a gentleman of com
manding presence and a reputable lawyer.
Mr. Carpenter, as in duty bound, treated
his partisans to a speech. Among other
choice things, we select this:
“ We are now at liberty to return to the first
principles upon which the Government was
founded, and secure for all time the absolute
equality of all men."
In the very teeth of Southern disfran
chisement. With Tennessee, Missouri, West
Virginia and many other States before his
eyes. With the overwhelming defeat of ne
gro suffrage in Eastern and Western States.
With thousands of Irishmen outlawed po
litically in Rhode Island. With Anna
Dickinson without an Ethiopian lord, and
“no d—d niggers ” admitted to the inaugu
ration ball. With these, and more than
these, staring him full in the face, this con
spicuous hypocrite lifts his tall figure to the
sky and—tells a fib which he does not be
lieve, and only tells it to tickle the thou
sands of gulls who preach the same doc
trine, but never practice it.
The Woman Question. —At the Woman’s
Rights Convention in Washington the vener
able Madame Lucretia Mott (76 years old)
was made President. The Rev. Mr. Gray,
Chaplain oi the Senate, opened the proceed
ings with a prayer strangely out of place,
one would think, considering the company
present. Mrs. Stanton says of it: “He
dwelt somewhat at length on the creation
of woman, and seemed to fall in with the
common idea that Eye was an after
thought.”
Madame Stanton continues: “Sitting
beside our venerable President, trying to
maintain a devotional frame of mind,
through all clerical heresies, we perceived
that in the ‘Eve passage’ she suddenly
raised her head, and in a gentle whisper
said: ‘ I cannot bow to that nonsense.’ ”
Mrs. Mott’s son-in-law, when the Chap
lain finished, got up and read the passage
from Genesis, which “ clearly proved” (says
Mrs. Stanton) “that Eve was already
walking up and down the garden of Para
dise, in all her native dignity, before that
deep sleep fell upon Adam.”
Pollard and Smvthe.— The so-called
historian of the “ Lost Cause” and the Col
lector of New York are exchanging the lie.
Somehow or other, Pollard wormed him
self into the Custom House, having taken
the iron-clad oath as a preliminary purge.
Smvthe was stired up by the newspapers
and had to oust Pollard. Pollard goes
for Smvthe and Smythe’b head man goes
for Pollard. Waiving the point as to
which is the liar, it puzzles all Gotham to
know how the deuce Pollard got into the
Custom House. The joke down South
seems to be that a man with his mouth full
of fine frenzy against the want of dignity in
Jefferson Davis, should likewise have it
stuffed with the abominable test-oath.
Beware, Oh, Beware !—-The Richmond
Dispatch sounds this note of warning: “It
is generally understood by oystermen that
molasses and sugar are death to the one
who, immediately after eating them, eats
yaw oysters.”
A Good Flank.— The effort of the Sonth i
to offset reconstruction by industry is bear- ,
ing fruit. The Baltimore Gazette says:
a Tired of being huffed and rebuffed, wearied
with their efforts to obtain political privileges,
the sensible and practical portiou of the South
ern community have, like Candide, come at last ,
to the conclusion that the only secret of wia- .
dom aud true happiness is to cultivate their
own gardens, and it must be confessed they are
doing it very successfully.”
Extending tile Bible. —Gen. Lee has
been elected President of a Bible Society in
Rockbridge county. Virginia. He desires
to put the Good Book in everybody’s hands.
The Georgia Case.
A GLANCE AT THE RECORD OF “ LOYAL ” AND
DISLOYAL OUTRAGES.
The following is from “ Mack’s ” last let
ter to the Cincinnati Enquirer :
The Senate Judiciary Committee, through
Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, yesterday, reported
against the admission of Joshua Hill, of
Georgia, to a seat in the Senate, and accom
panied the report with a long series of pre
tended facts to sustain it, and designed to
show that Georgia had not been properly
•< reconstructed.” The number of “ murders
and assaults ” committed in the State dur
ing the past year is set forth to make a
startling array, but it is an exhibit only of
the number of negroes or “ loyal whites
murdered or assaulted by “ rebels. Not a
word is said of the other class of outrages
committed all through the South, in which
the flendishness and atrocity of the negroes
figure most conspicuously. “ Three hundred
and sixty-six cases of murders and assaults
were reported by the Freedmen’s Bureau
from January 1 to November 15,1868.
This is the weightiest allegation in Mr.
Stewart’s report, and the principal reason
for not admitting Mr. Hill. “ Three hundred
and sixty-six cases” in ten months and a
half, throughout the State of Georgia—that
is of “murders and assaults.” An analysis
would probably show six murders and three
hundred and sixty “ assaults,” and a coin
parison with the criminal records of other
localities would undoubtedly show Georgia,
according to the Senate Committee’s statis
tics to be a most peaceable and law-abiding
State. The last census gives Georgia a
population of 1,057,000— or about four times
that of the city of Cincinnati. According
to this ratio, and to the Senate s standard
of morality, about a hundred assault cases
per annum in our city would be sufficient
to call for Congressional interposition, and
denial of our right to representation in Con
gress. If Mr. Stewart will take the trouble
to look at the docket of the Cincinnati Po
lice Court, for the past year, he will find not
less than a thousand “ assaults,” equally as
unprovoked as any that the history of Geor
gia cau furnish.
Then take the criminal record of New
York City, with a population less than the
State of Georgia, and compare it with the
three hundred and sixty-six cases raked up
by the Freedmen’s Bureau, and now made
the pretext for excluding a State from rep
resentation in Congress. There_ is more
crime committed in the city of New York
in a single week than the Judiciary Com
mittee And to have beeu committed in the
State of Georgia in a year. Or, it you will,
take Mr. Stewart’s own State of Nevada as
a basis of comparison. There are more
murders, more assaults, more villainies of
all kinds, committed every year by tnc
half-civilized constituency ot less than
twenty thousand whom lie represents, than
by the million people who inhabit the State
of Georgia. If the insecurity of life and
property were made a general cause of the
denial of representation in Congress, Neva
da would be kicked out at once, tor it Is
well known that among the inhabitants ot
that state murder is a fine art, and throat
cutting a pleasant pastime.
But Georgia is excluded from the halls i
of Congress, first, because she gave a Dem
ocratic majority at the last election, and,
secondly, because Mr. Hill, who has been
elected as one of her Senators, is a South
ern man, and not a carpet-bagger. The in
tention is to keep her out until she shall
give assurance of a Radical majority, Rnd
until she shall select as her Senators and
Representatives some of the scoundrels
from tho North who have gone down there
to serve in that cnqmcnry. otren rr me reaso
of “ reconstruction ” and its consequent
“peace” to which the country is invited
bv the new regime. Since the world began
there has not beemsuch a cruel parody of
all the principles of civil government, and
till the world ends let ns hope there will
not be another.
[Special Correspondence Baltimore Gazette.
From Washington.
the new amendment—its chances in the
SENATE —THE INAUGURATION BALL—THE IN
AUGURAL.
Washington, February 1, 1869.
I referred yesterday to the unanimity with
which the House passed the constitutional
amendment guaranteeing the right of suffrage
to the negroes North as well as South. This
action, it will have been observed, was clearly
in the teeth of the Chicago platform, by which
the people of the Western States were cheated
out of their votes. It wonld even yet be unsafe
to predict the fate of this movement in the
Senate. I this morning closely watched the
public and private signs, and should be inclined
to the belief that the measure would fail, if I
had not so ofteu Ween deceived in reference to
the final action ot the men now relied upon for
Us defeat. The same remark is applicable to
the States which have heretofore voted down
negro suffrage. The hallucination which Bccms
to have taken full possession of the “ loil ”
mind about the negro will have to come to the
point of downright delirium before any healthy
reaction can take place. A leading Radical de
clared to-day that the States of Ohio and Mich
igan would at this moment reverse (heir form
er vote if an opportunity could be afforded
them. . . .
Although another attempt, I understand,
will he made to revive it, 1 think it may safely
be said that the project of appropriating the
Capitol to the purposes of a jollification on the
4th of March has been substantially defeated.
The affair was too transparent “ a job ” to suc
ceed even in these degenerate days. It was
neither more nor less than an application for
permission to levy ten dollars a head upon the
populace, resident and itinerant, who desired
to see the full ceremonies, official and unofficial,
of the “ coming iqpn’s ” inauguration. What
tore the mask from the face of the scheme, and
left the speculation stark naked, was the offer
to dispense with “ dancing ” at the “ ball ”
proposed to be given ! This would have re
duced the “ expenditures ” to zero, aud left the
total “ receipts ” clear profit! Not even the
proposition of Morrill, of Vermont, (the only
man now in the Senate who has the genuine
Yankee whine) that “ ladies be admitted without
regard to color" could save its bacon. By the
way, what does Mr. Conkling mean by insinu
ating that some one “not yet elected President”
is at the bottom of this attempted piece of
adroit financiering ? Does he mean that
already some one is looked upon as the sueccs
sor of the not yet arrived “ coming man ?” Tn
connection with a remark of General Butler,
1 bat his object in moving the repeal of the
tenure of office act was to give General Grant
“ rope,” and .hat the proper remedy for a “ re
creant ” President was impeachment, this hint
of Mr. Conkling is of more importance than
would casually be accorded it. I quote his
language :
“He had seen no indication that the Presi
dent elect panted for an opportunity to hold a
reception in the Capital. On the contrary, that
gentleman seemed desirous of being inaugurated
c.s quietly as possible. If he should express a
wish to have the use of the Capitol for any pur
pose, that would present a different question ;
hut the question now was, whether somebody
else not yet elected President of the United
titateeishould be allowed the nse of the rotunda
of the Capitol for some “ unofficial ” services of
his own."
It will also be observed that it thus seems to
bo agreed all round that General Grant Is desi
rous that even the official proceedings in his
inauguration should be conducted “as quietly
as possible.” 1 wrote to you a month ago that
the plebeian mode of delivering an inaugural
address, “ outside of the Capitol,” was likely to
be dispensed with on this occasion. The pub
lic will hence perceive what “money ” was In
this little speculation ! In proof of the cor
rectness of this view, I must further tresspass
by quoting from the New York Senator an
other short paragraph, as follows:
«Mr. Conkline remarked that he did not
t»lsh to be set down, because he oppose* the
resolution, as seeking churlishly to exclude citi
zens from the rotunda or any other part of the
Capitol. Every citizen had a right to visit the
Capitol on inauguration dav, and every other
day, without any special permission, and with
out being required to pay any committee any ad
mission fee."
While, however, this-Senator did Very good
service in thus heading off this diminutive job,
he was no less conspicuous in bringing forth,
the very same day, a proposition to “ inaugu
rate’’another “job ” of gigantic proportions;
I allude to a monopoly-foreign-mail-establish
ment, to have its headquarters at the city of
New York, and totally independent ot the
Post Office Department for ten years.

Alexander H. Stephens.
A correspondent of the Macon Telegraph
has visited Mr, Stephens. Among other things
he reports as follows:
When I entered he was engaged in looking
over the papers which had arrived by mail a
lew minutes before, but kindly entered into a
very pleasing conversation with me without
delay. I ventured to call his attention to a
paper which contained the article of Mr. Pol
lard on the flight of Mr. Davis from Richmond,
and particularly that portion relating to him
self, with an urgent request that lie might al
low me to publish his remarks in reference to
it. He stated that he hid seen the article, and
would grant my request only on condition that
I would give his remarks in his own words. I
then took down in short hand as he spoke, the
following:
“ 1 have a great repugnance to having my
name brought before the pnblic in such a con
nection, even in correction of the many mis
representations, which 1 almost daily see in
the papers; yet I assure yon that what Mr.
Pollard, iu this article says, is without the least
foundation whatever, and his information, from
whatever source derived, is entirely incorrect.
I was here, at my own home in Crawfordville,
at the time relerred to. Mr. Davis did not
pass nearer to Crawfordville than Raytown,
some eight or nine miles distant, and I did not
know that he was passing through that part of
the State until some time afterwards. 4 Gria
woldville,’ spoken of in the article ot Mr. Pol
lard, is at least sixty or seventy miles from my
residence. *
“ However widely Mr. Davis and I may have
differed upon pnblic questions and public poli
cy, either before or during the days or the Con
federacy, our personal and social relations were
never interrupted. Onr terms of intercourse
were always triendly. No act of incivility on
the part of either of us was ever exhibited to
wards the other, bo far as I am aware of. In
this connection I wonld add that it is not cor
rect, as I here see it in the papers to-day stated,
that I have accepted the Professorship of His
tory and Political Science, lately created and
tendered to me in the University of Georgia.
The state Ot my health and existing profession
al, as well as other engagements, constrain me
to decline it, at least for the preseut.”
GENERAL GRANT.
1 asked Mr. Stephens vvhat he thought wonld
he the coarse of General Grant as President
and while he says but little upon public matters,
his reply was as lollows: “ All the country
wants is good government. Por General Grant
personally I entertain the highest esteem. From
the time I first met him at City Point, in 1865,
I have regarded, and still regard him, as one ol
the most remarkable men I have ever met. He
possesses one of the rarest combinations of ele
ments of character of perhaps any man living.
-I do not believe he will be easily influenced,
much less controlled, by any person. He will
act lrom the dictates of his own jnderment, and
what he believes to be the line of his duty. I
regard him as a man of great generosity and
magnanimity, neither selfish nor ambitions;
and 1 believe he meant all that the words import
when he said 1 Let us have Peace.’ Gen. Grant,
however, no more than any other man, can have
all things as he might desire. The future of
this country, therefore, is still enveloped in
great uncertainty. All the patriot at the South
can do is to bear in patience the present—exer
cise a generous confidence and look bopefnlly
for time’s development.” Os
THE COUNTRY,
he said, “With good government, there is much
of 4 life in the old land yet.’ ” He here referred
to t paper recently furnished from the Agricul
tural Bureau at Washington which gives the
products and the great staples of the country,
Indian corn and cotton, during the year 1868,
and proceeded ;
44 From this it appears that in all of the States
cast of the Pacific slope, the ent ire product of
cotton was nine hundred millions bushels. Os
t lis, piore than one-half, to-wit: live hundred
ind nine millions in round numbers, was pro
duced in the thirteen Southern States ; while the
corn crop, estimated at two million three
hundred thousand bales, grown entirely in these
States, at an average market, price, wonld
amount to upwards of two hundred and fifty
millious dollars, which will be more than one
hall the foreign exports from the entire country.
These figures in themselves exhibit what vital
energies we possess, it properly directed under
good government.”
Exit of Messrs. Breckinridge and Ben
jamin from the Confederacy. —There are a
few facts connected with the escape of General
Breckinridge, and Mr. Benjamin from the (Jon
lederaey which are perhaps not generally
known. After the surrender of General Lee’s
army* both Gen; Breckinridge and Mr. Benja
min made their way to trioruLi. fio■> Ki-uoUia.
niiiii.i., .»■ r -I. the State near Mon.tLu.lD>. where
he found friends who assisted him it getting to
Marion county, lrom whence he hoped to find
an opportunity to get out of the country.—
Gep. Breckinridge spent a number of days in
hunting and visiting with bis friends in Marion,
but knowing that be could not remain there
long, his friends proenred a small metallic
boat, in which he and, his companions, Colonel
Wilson and Captain Wood, and the General’s
faithful servant, soon found themselves ascend
ing the Bt. John’s river. The party, after much
toil, reached New Smyrna, where they found a
schooner which carried them safely to Nassau,
N. P. The General was known as Colonel
Cabel. ,
Mr. Benjamin also struck Florida near Mon
ticello, where he met friends who assisted him
on to the vicinity of this place. Here Mr. Ben
jamin hoped to find some way to Cuba, or one
of the Bahama Islands ; hut there was a strict
watch kept by the United States troops station
ed here, and there were but few boats left on
the coast. Bat Mr. Benjamin finally procured
a small boat at Manatee, upon which the ex-
United States Senatorand ex Oonfederate States
Secretary of State embarked as cook, and in a
few days found himself under the protecting
folds of the British flag. Mr. Benjamin passed
himself off as a land hunter, named Howard.
There is quite an amusing little anecdote con
nected with Mr. Benjamin during his stay with
a friend of ours, in this vicinity, but we refraiu
from making it public.— Florida Peninsular.
Alpeoria Heard From.—The Savannah
News says, Alpeoria Bradley has acted wisely
in putting the largest possible space between
himself and Savannah, and we advise him to
maintain the same amount of prudence for and
during his natnral life. We received yesterday,
under cover of an envelope postmarked “ Bos
ton, January 23,” the following characteristic
cmnmnnieation, which we publish just as writ
ten, not from any respect to the wretch who
wrote it, but as a judicial and literary curiosity
and part of the history of these disjointed
times: -v
To the Superior Couit of said county, I pray
that your honor will be pleased to take judicial
notice, of the law and the fact: —that sections
4250, 4251, and 4253 and the laws of 1866 p 154
p 152 3 are not enforced in the State of Georgia :
as our new Constitution that gave them legal
existence is not as yet the organic law ot the
State: and because Maj. Gen. G. Mead has by
an order, withdrawn all his orders hv which
they were made the provisional law of Georgia.
The Eleventh Article section third of the State
Constitution that makes Irwin’s Code the law
of Georgia, cannot, compleat its work uutil
Congress had adiuitcd our Senators.
1 submit to your honor the law and the facts,
that if the Ogeehee-colored people are insurrec
tionists it is against the United States and not
the State of Georgia.
And again because Sheriff Dooner did not
take the Test Oath os required by the recon
struction acts of all officers acting under pro
visional laws, and therefore he might be legally
resisted as Sheriff of Chatham county.
If these sections are to be enforced as legal
law : under them the Republican party of
Georgia they can have pnlto and -ath, the editors,
owners and news boys of the Savannah Repub
lican —and the News and one-htyf the printers
of the State : for wbat they write, print, end
circulate for the purpose of exciting resistance
against the laws of the United States.
A. Alpeora Bradley.
A Desperate Affair —We learn, from re
liable authority, that Sheriff McClurd, of
Pickens county, accompanied by a man by the
name of Brown, succeeded in arresting a horse
thief by the name of Richie, who had been op
erating between Hamiltoti county, Tenn., and
Pickens county, Ga. After the arrest, Richie
made a desperate effort to escape and succeeded
by shooting, and almost instantly killing, the
sheriff and wounding Brown in such a manner
-.hat he soon afterwards bled to death. Richie,
afterwards mounted the best horse In thecrowd
nod made good his escape. Richie told the
sheriff; the moment he drew his pistol from his
boot leg, that he “ bad killed seven men, and
that be would be the eighth one.” This sad
affair occurred nine miles below Jasper, on
Sunday, the 17th in'st .—Dahlonega Signal.
Beat it ip You Can.—Much is said through
the papers of the Peeler, and other varieties of
long staple cotton, but we have yet to learn
that any of these have sold in any Southern
market for more than about thirty-five cents
per pound, except the “Threlkeld Cotton,”
grown by Mr. T. J. Threlkeld, one of the firm
of Sims & Threlkeld, cotton brokers of this
city. Twelve bales of this cotton was sold, a
few days since, in Savannah, Ga., at fifty-one
cents per pound.
Mr. Threlkeld raised this cotton on bis plan
tation, in Spalding county, and has a few bush
els of the seed on band, which he will sell for
ten dollars per bushel.— Griffin Star.

And its Effects on the Weak and Feeble.
The drafts which searching cold makes upon the vital
powers of the debidtated and delicate are not less severe
than the drain upon their strength caused by excessive
heat. The vast disparity between the temperature of,
overtheated rooms and offices, at this season, and the
frigidity of the outer air, is a fruitful source of sickness.
To fortify tho body against the evil consequences of the
sudden alterations of heat and cold referred to, tho vital
organization should be strengthened snd endowed with
extra resistant power by the use or a wholesome Invigor
ant ; and, of all preparations for this purpose (whether
embraced in the regular pharmacopeia or advertised in
the public Journals), there ii none that will compare in
purity and excellence w th HOSTETTER’S STOMACH
BITTERS. Acting directly upou the organ which con
■verta the food into the fuel of life, the preparation im
parts to it a tone and vigor which Is communicated to
every fibre of the frame. The digestive function being
accelerated by its tonic o eration, the liver regulated
by its auti-bihous properties, and tiie waste matter
ot the system carried off punctually by its mild aperient
action, the whole organiza iou will necessarily be in the
best possible condition to moot the shoeks ol Winter and
the sudden changes of temp rature. The weak and sen
sitive, especially, cannot encounter these vicissitudes
with safety, unless their teuder syst-ms are strengthened
and braced by artificial means. Every liquor so’d as a
staple of trade is adulterated, and, were it otherwise,
mere slcohol is simply a temporary excitant, which,
when its first effects have subsided, leaves the physical
powers (and the mind as well) in a worse condition than
before. HOSTBTTER’S BITTERS, on the other hand,
contain the essential properties of the most valuable
tonic and alterative roots, barks and herbs, and their ac
tive principal is the mellowest, least exciting, and most
inocuous of all diffusive stimu’ants. feb2-d*ctXs

of fertility.
Its use during the past four years, for the culture of
Cotton and Corn, has given to it a character for stand
ard excellence unsurpassed by Peruvian Guano, and
wheu seasons of drought intervene it produces a larger
increase of crops. The price at which thiß Guano is
placed is so much below that of Peruvian Guano as
to constitute it an object of material importance to
Southern agriculture.
The Company looks to “ large sales,” small “ prof
its” and a permanent trade for compensation on capi
tal invested.
The large capital and resources of the Company en
ables it to furnish a Guano of the highest value, at
the lowest, possible cost to consumers, and the highest
interest of the Company ii recognized in this policy.
Dr. St. Julian Ravsnel, of Charleston, S. C., is
Scientific Director to the Company, which affords a
sure guarantee of the continued excellence of the
Guauo.
