SUNDAY MORNING, FEB. 6,1870
Cowr-ratTioic wok Leather.— A patent
has n-oently been issued iu Prance (or a
composition to be applied to leather of any
kind. wliirti rlnlriis to be of remarkable ex
cellence. It is said to be completely inso
luble in water, and while rendering the
leather water-proof, to keep it perfectly
pliable and soft, and when applied to boots
aud >hoes neither to strike through the
leather so as to soil the stockings, nor to
come off upon the lower edge of the panta
loon*. as is the case with so many similar
preparations. It also gives a fine polisli to
the surface, wltich may at any time be
cleansed by means of a damp rag or sponge.
This article is made by taking one hundred
parts of finely pulverized lamp-black and
thirty parts of East India copal, previous
ly dissolved in rectified turpentine, and
mixing the two together until the whole
forms a homogeneous paste. To this is to
be added fifteen parts of wax and one part
of rubber, which has been first, dissolved
in ethereal oil. When the whole is proper
ly mixed a current ot oxygen is passed for
half an hour through the mass, and after
cooling, the whole is to lie thoroughly
worked up. It may then be packed iu tin
boxes aud kept ready for use.
The Fair Premiums.— The Macon Ide
grajifi and Messenger makes the explanation,
accounting for the failure of persons to re
ceive the premiums awarded them at the
State Agricultural Fair, that they neglect
ed to get a certldcate from the Secretary.
It says that soon after the Fair closed and
the business of the society in relation there
to was wonnd up, it was ascertained there
were ample funds in the Treasury, with
what bad been subscribed, to pay all pre
miums and indebtedness of the Society ;
bat Col. Lewis being called away, there
was some delay in distributing tbe pre
miums to tbe few who had pursued the
proper method for obtaining them, but we
are assured by the Secretary aud the Trea
surer, that every premium awarded and
every dollar of the Society’s indebtedness
will lie paid, as the proper persons for re
ceiving the same present themselves.
Another Freight Blockade.—The
Nashville Banner, of Friday, says:
The frieght blockade at this point bavins
been raised, we now hear of a had state of
affairs at Chattanooga. The great rush of
Southern freights has accumulated a large
number of cars there—some 350—and the
Western and Atlantic Railroad is unable
to move them. Mr. Lopez, General Freight
Agent of the Memphis and Charleston Rail
road, and Mr. Woodfort, Special Agent of
the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, are
there endeavoring to straighten the matter
out. The officials of the Nashville and
Memphis Roads complain that the Western
and Atlantic Road is giving preference to
local freights, and especially to that arriv
ing by river. The commission houses on
the levee at Chattanooga complain that
their warehouses are stocked with grain,
already :-old, for which they can get no
transportation, and between the two dis
satisfied parties the officers of the Western
and Atlantic Railroad appear to be getting
their fall share of carsing.
The truth is that the increasing trade be
tween the North and South, and especially
the unusually large shipments of mules and
horses and of grain to feed them, besides
the large amounts of merchandise now go
ing down for the Spring trade, are far be
yond the capacity of aay single line of road
to transport. Over the Memphis and
Charleston and JTashville and Chattanooga
Railroads, arettbneentrated at Chattanooga
the entire shipments from the North for
the central South, between the Atlantic
and "the Mississippi, and their only outlet
l* over the Western and Atlantic Railroad,
with but a single track.
Under snch circumstances the only won
der is that a blockade of freights does not
more frequently occur at Chattanooga.

IRRITABLE INVALIDS.
Indigestion not only effects the physical health, but
the dispositions and tempers of its victims. Tho
.lyspeptic becomes, too, In a measure, demoralized by
Ills sufferings. He Is sub:ect to fits of irritation, sul
lenness or despair, as the case may be. A preter
natural sensitiveness, which be cannot control, leads
h'm to misconstrue the words and nets of those
atound him, and his intercourse even with those
nearest and dearest to him is not unfrequently marked
by exhibitions of testine-s foreign to his real nature.
These are the mental phenomena of the disease, for
which the Invalid cannot be justly held responsible,
but they occasion much household discomfort. It is
to the Interest of the home circle, It is essential to
fvmily harmony, qa well as to the rescue of tho prin
cipal sufferer from a state not far removed from in
cipient insanity, that these symptoms of mental dis
turbance be promptly removed. This can only he
done by removing their physical cause, a derangement
of the-funettonfe of the stomach, and its allied, viscera,
the liver and the bowels. Upon these three Import
ant organs Hostetler's Stomach Bitters act simulta
neously, producing a thorough and salutary change
in their condition. The vegetable ingredients of
which the preparation is composed are of a renova
ting, regulating and alterative character, and the stim
ulant which lends activity to their remedial virtues is
the purest and best that can be extracted from the
most wholesome of all cereals, viz: sound rye. No
dyspeptic can take this genial restorative for a single
week without experiencing a notable improvement in
his general health. Not only will hia bodily suffer
ings abate from day to day, but his mind will recover
rapidly from its restlessness and irritability, and this
happy change will manifest itself in bis demeanor to
a'l around him- lebl-tfebl6
WOT IMPORTANT.—THOSE WHO HAVE
attained to the greatest eminence In the science of
Medicine, and who.have by a life long study of, and
experience with, the human organism, obtained great
insight into the origin and pathology' of disease, are
yet, notwithstanding all their profound and lparned
theories, confessedly groping In the dark as to tbe/M<
came of any and all diseases that affect our race. But
this much has been clearly elucidated, and is become
an axiom with the learned profession, that by far the
greatest number of our ailu ents are directly traceable
to derangement of th* digestive functions, and If
« good digestion wait on appetite, ’’ health will be lhe
almost uniform result. Acting upon thiß axiom, the
inventor of DB. HURLEY’S CELEBRATED
BTOM AOH BIT TERB has been eminently success
ful (judging from the many testimonials that are con
stantly pouring in upon him through the mails and
press), in preparing a remedy to meet and “ nip in the
bud” all this long list of obscure and distressing de
rangements that render “ life scarce woijth the living."
W e are glad to learft that the public here are be
ginning to appreciate these BITTERS upon their in
trinsic merits, and that they oan be had everywhere.

To Jas. Huddle <t 00., LouitviUe, Ky.:
Gshtlsmsh : This is to certify that I have been for
years a fufierer, and tried all the tonics I have heard
of or Seen advertised, with little or no relief from any
of them. 1 heard Hurley’s Bitters highly apqfcob.of,
and tried a bottle, with little faith In H befbre I com
menced, and, to my surprise and joy, before I finished
one bottle 1 felt a great deal better, and firmly believe
that one or two occasions it was the means of saving
and prolonging my life. I consrienliqjisly recommend
them to all sufferers as the best Bitters known, and
advise them always to ask for Dr. T. A. Hu'ley’s, and

Sir : 1 deem it an act ot justice lo you to state that
in the month ot February last 1 had a severe attack
of inflammatory rheumatism, which completely pros
trated me. At the same time my lungs were much
afflicted. I was so reduced that it was with the great
est difficulty that I oould walk. I procured some of
your Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, and com
menced taxing it. I found that I began to improve—
my cough became less seveie—the soreness of my
lungs and breast gradually subsided—my rheumatic
pains less acute. I attribute this mainly to your Sar
saparida. I have now been taking it for over two
months; have taken in all five bottles. Itß effects
have been most satifactory to me, and I advise others
similarly afflicted to give you a trial.

Read Analysis-of Prof. JOH\SO\, of Vale College i, ;i .
pROF. iSAMUEL W, JOHNSON, of Yale College, In his “Report on Commercial Fertilizers,” to the “Connecticut Board of
Agriculture,” makes the following tabulated statement of fertilizers analysed by him, with the explanation of Gold valuation, as
follows: - .. * ...
“ The valuation is not intended to fix, in all cases, the proper selling price of a fertiliser.. It may, however, always serve for
comparing together the money value of two or more manures, and so nearly represents commercial worth that the farmer will not
often err in refusing to lay out his money for any article whose cost much exceeds the calculated value.
“ The valuation is properly based upon the cost of the active and valuable ingredients of commercial manures, as obtained from
the cheapest standard sources. Without going into details of the calculations, 1 will state that the prices which 1 employed in my
Report to the Connecticut State Agricultural Society iu the years 1857, 1858 and 1859, when refund to the gold standard, are not far
fyoni those which result from Computing Jhe present market cost of the commercially valuable elements of standard manures.”
The Secretary of the Board, T. S. Gold, Esq., remarks on Prof. Johnson’s Report: “ TlieSte samples analyzed by Prof. .lohn
sOn, Were received by him without their names, or any mark .except a number. Most of them were taken, under my inspection
from the bags or barrels in the storehouses of the dealers, and were just the article they had on sale. These packages were de
livered personally, or forwarded by Express, so that he could know nothing of their origin or pretensions.”
The anuexed table shows the different manures analyzed by Prof. Johnson, of Yale College, giving the nameß of the manures
of what composed, and their Gold valuation ; also the market price at the time the report Was made. ’

The Ammoniated Soluble Superphosphate of Lime ” I received the 2d day of May, with
the request that, 1 should test Its value on Cotton as a fertilizer. When I received it I was nearly
through planting, and did not have an acre of ground suitable to plant in Cotton, so l selected
one acre most convenient, which was a piece nearly worn out,-auil which, in my jmigmeut,
would have produced without any fertilizer, about 300 ibs. Seed Cotton per acre. I did not
get a good stand—about %of a stand—yet the result is 590 Ihs. Seed Cotton, and about 60 lbs.
Bolls caught by llie frost, which will open yet.,
Tims it proves to be a good article—for auy fertilizer that will realize fifty to one hon
ored per cent., as this has doqp, is a good investment, W. A. COOK

This y*»r I have experimented with ten different fertilizers of the most popular brands—
and “ Wm. Crichton A Son’s Ammoniated Soiajble Superphosphate of Lime ” is at pres
ent only equalled by two of the manures. lam not quite through picking, hut there ia ao little
yet to be picked, that it w.ill not materially alter the above statement or result.
I can, without hesitation, recommend this fertilizer to planters as a No. 1 Cotton Manure

■ I used one ton of Wm. Crichton & Son’s Ammoniated Superphosphate of Lime on five

commend it with great confidence. From the well known reputation of the manufacturers, I
am certain it can be relied upon for uniformity. H. T. JOHNSON,

I used, the Ammoniated Superphosphate of Lime of Win. Crichton & Son on three acres

five growth, vigor and greenness to the plant, whiie the amount of SOLUBLE and Inaoinble
