of A. H. Brown, Esq., proctor for the libel?
lants in this cause, and all the prosecutors as?
senting, it was ordered that the terms of sale
be as follows: One-half in cash, the remainder
in approved indorsed notes, at ninety days,
and secured by a mortgage of the property.
ON A RAMPAGE.-An individual with an un?
pronounceable name became slightly exhila?
rated yesterday by frequent potations of lager,
and being desirous of creating a sensation,
drove his minie and dray into the store of
Messrs. 6. W. Steffens k Co., at the corner of
George and King streets. The proprietors did
not see the joke, and tho ram pager was driven
to the guardhouse and assigned quarters for
the night He will answer for his misconduct
this morning._
THE UNION PEA YEE MEETING.-We are pleased
to see that the interest felt in the call made by
the Evangelical Alliance for a concert of prayer
on the part of all Christians throughout the
world, continues to increase. A large congre?
gation filled Trinity Church, Hasel-street, last
evening, where the services are now being held.
The chancel was well filled by the clergy of the
city, and the exercises were of the most inter?
esting character.
The meeting will he continued to-night at
- Trinity Church. Tho clergy, and Christians of
aU denominations, aro invited to attend. Ser?
vices commence at half-past seven o'clock.
ROBBERY TN CHRIST CHVCH PARIBH.-The
store of Messrs. Weldon & Patton, in Christ
Church Parish, was broken open, on the 3d
inst, and robbed of $175 in currency and a
quantity of dry goods. Mr. Patton caught a
colored man, one of the burglars, and took
from him $102, but, while taking him to the
village, the thief succeeded in making his es?
cape. Ben Washington, an accomplice, was
subsequently arrested, .and is now in the
hands of the detectives. Tho thieves broke
into tho store by cutting around the lock with
a knife, and sufficient evidence has been ob?
tained to warrant the belief that both of them
will soon be confined in a place where locks
are less easily broken.
LOVE IS CHAETTY.-St. Paul rightly described
the true meaning of Love when ho called it
Charity. The Odd Fellows have chosen for
their motto, Friendship, Love and Truth, and
they have steadily acted up to that standard.
They have combined the three in one, an j
made that Charity. The impoverished condi?
tion of the Southern people has exoited con?
siderable sympathy among those wbo are more
favored by fortune, and they have hastened to
con tri bu to to relieve the existing suffering.
The Odd Fellows, true to the principles of their
order, have not only extended their sympathy,
but have given liberally from their means, to
the support of their impoverished brethren.
The Kentucky Lodges have generously donat?
ed to their suffering brethren in this eily the
sum of MOO, intended especially for the relief
of the widow and the orphan. This sum has
been apportioned among the various lodges,
and will be properly distributed.

The freedman is becoming more and more i
willing to exert himself, and the planters g

folly to trust to lus labor for a r?mun?r?t

resourco is the acquisition of a people tl

accomplish this, the country will not p

THE GAZETTE.-This paper which, since its
first appearance, has met with substantial en?
couragement from the Catholics of this State and
the South, hen changed its proprietorship, and
will in future be conducted by Mr. M. Caul?
field as sole proprietor. Mr. Ford, the retiring
partner, recommends the present proprietor to
the good will and patronage of the public, and
Mr. Caulfield pledges himself to spare no pains
in his efforts to make the Gazette well worthy
of the general support of tho Catholics of tho
South. Thero will be no break in the publica?
tion of the Gazette, which will continue to ap?
pear as usual.
UNSEASONABLE AOQUATICS. - Tho present
warm weather bas iudnoed many to think that
the winter has passed and spring has already
asserted hor sway. The trees in various parts
of the city are now showing budding symptoms
that promise, if not checked by an untimely
frost, to bring forth fruit in good season; bnt
the most striking instance of the moderation
of the weather is displayed by the presence of
the number of boys swimming in the ponds in
the western portion of the eity. Theso young?
sters have taken advantage of the present
warmth to indulge in their acquatio sports,
and without the fear of pneumonia before their
eyes, have boldly plunged into the briny fluid.
While the air may be temperate, tho water re?
tains a chilliness that renders swimming an un?
pleasant exercise to any but the most hardy,
and those who have the temerity to risk .he
experiment may be seized by a cramp whei it
is least expected.
THE LADIES' FUEL SOCIETY held their third
monthly meeting at the Depository, Chalmers
street, ou the 6th January, 1868.
They have been able to supply but few fami?
lies with wood, and would gladly have issued
more orders, but have not been able to do BO
in consequence of the want of means. The first
wood bill is still partially unpaid, and the de?
mand from the poor much greater than the
Society can supply. There was an offer made,
a few days ago, to furnish the Society with
pine wood at a very low price, which would en?
able it to assist the poor materially, and thus
carry on this noble obarity which has for years
done so much good. Several appeals have
been made through the newspapers, and their
ward collectors have endeavored to collect
throughout the city; many have generously
contributed, many more could do so, and no
donbt would, if they os tim a ted the importance
of this work, and when seated around their
cheerful flrosiden, surrounded by their happy
families, on these wintry nights, would remem?
ber the poor shivering families with their little
ones, destitute of the necessaries of Ufe, and
suffering not only from the cravings of hun?
ger, bat fro n the pitiless cold. Will you not
remember them ?
I now, SB a member of the Board, earnestly
soUcit the aid of the public, and request that
subscriptions will be left at the residence of
the President, corner of Judith and Elizabeth
streets; Secretary and Treasurer's, corner of
Rutledge and Spring streets, or at the Deposi?
tory, Chalmers-street; also at the different
newspaper offices.
By order of the Secretary and Treasurer.

LIFE IN THE OLD LAND JET.-TO show what
can be done with the ordinary sand-hill land
near Columbia, the Pheonix publishes the fol?
lowing reply from an enterprising Southern
planter to the inquiry of a friend as to how he
had succeeded daring the past year with his
crop. If such satisfactory returns can be ob?
tained from what is generally termed "poor
land," what can be done on the rich land, with
which the State abounds :
NEAR COLUMBIA, January 8.-According to
promise, I will give yon the outlines of my
crop last year, 18G7. I hired three freedmen
from $3 to $7 por month. I planted about 100
acres ground. I harvested 500 bushels of
corn, 6000 poonda of fodder, about 50 bushels
peas, one acre in swoet potatoes, one-fourth
an acre of round or Irish potatoes, 15 bales of
cotton weighing from 475 to 600 pounds each,
and sold in the market about 940 worth of
vegetables. I used no fertilizing at all. I
carried thc foremost row and my hands follow?
ed me, and had I got a respectable price for
my produce, I should have succeeded better:
as it was, I don't think there was over $500
cleared off of tho farm. The place I plant is
light upland, and by drought and too much
rain at other times, I can safely say I lost one
fourth of what I should have made.
GAS-BORNEES.-There is generally so mach
complaint among the people about gas-burn?
ers, that we append tbe following, from tho
American Journal, which may afford some in?
struction:
Through want of knowledge of some simple
facts connected with the management of gas,
mach dissatisfaction, annoyance, and useless
expense may, and bat too often does obtain;
unfortunately, these evils are frequently ag?
gravated because gas fitters, to whom the con?
sumer looks for aid. is often unacquainted
with tho vari?os contingencies which occur in
the introduction and barning of gas. It ia a
common occurrence for consumers to com?
plain of the excessive cost and deficiency of
light. To the inaccuracy of the meter they
generally attribute first, and to the poor quali?
ty of gas the latter condition is usually charg?
ed; when, in reality, the fault will generally be
found to rest with the consumers themselves,
through their own ignorance and mismanage?
ment. Whenever light is obtained from gae
ata greater cost than necessary, it ia jost as
moen a loss as to permit any other valuable
commodity to ron to waste. And a proper
knowledge of the conditions that cause un?
necessary loss will place in our hands the
means requisite to avoid and prevent it.
Burners.-There is no part connected with
the consumption of gas whereby the best re?
sults are obtained in the quality of light and
economy of gas, of more importance than the
burners.
It would be difficult to convince the majori?
ty of gas consumera, who have not given the
subject attention, how remarkably the light
derived from gas is reduced by improperly
constructed burners, or where the pressure of
the flames are unsuitably adjusted. Owing to
these circumstances, the amount of gas con?
sumed ia disproportionate to the fight obtain?
ed, and the account of the consumer ia mach
increased. In fact, there ia no exaggeration
in stating that a large proportion of the con?
sumers, through their own mismanagement,
pay twice aa much as there is any occasion
for, considering the amount of light obtained,
ali of which could bo saved by using a proper
burner, and a correct* adjustment and control
of tho pressure.
The most important requisites for good
burners are that thc orifices where the gas
issues should be perfectly regalar in size, and
of a proper size to permit it to issue with a very
low pressure. And these conditions should be
adhered to, whatever the kind of borner may
be, whether the argand, bats-wing, fish-tail or
single jet, ?fcc.
If the orifices are too small, a high pressure
is required to expel the gas, and the light is
diminished just in proportion to the increaed
pressure. In such bornera the ' flame will
nave a blueish tinge, and the lower part will
be of a deep blue color, giving bat little light
in proportion to tho gas consumed. As an ex?
ample, an argand of fifteen holes, passing five
feet of gas at one-tenth pressure, yielding a
light of twelve candles, will, if the orifices are
reduced to pans the same amoimt of gas per
hour at five-tenths the pressure, only give tho
light of six candles-a loss of thirty per cent.
Heuce we soe that the light to bo obtained
from a given quantity and quality of gas is
entirely dependent on the burner employed.
This demonstrates the necessity of having
proper burners, and shows olearly how, by neg?
ligence ou this point, the consumer may find
bis gas bills increase, in what appears to him
a very mysterious manner.
Size of Flame.--It ia a mistake to suppose
that tho amount of light obtained will be in
proportion to the quantity of gas issuing from
a burner. There is a particular point io the
consumption of any class of borner where tho
maximum of light is dori ved, and any devia?
tion from this en taila loss.
Aa an example, if an argand borner con?
sumes five feet per hoar, giving the light ol
twelve candles, be reduced, so that only three
fourths of that quantity ia barned, then the
fight, instead ot being equal to nine candles,
the theoretical proportion will be six candles
only, being a positive loss of thirty-six per
cent. This reduction may be continued with
eveo greater proportionate losses. A five feet
bat-wing, or fish-tail borner, will givo a maxi?
mum of light in proportion to the gas con?
sumed, compared with any less sized burner,
and it will bo found in practice the larger sized
burners aro tho most economical, tho large
sizes giving as high aa two hundred to three
hundred per cent, advantago in light as com?
pared with the smallest sizes.
As an example, a bat-wing borner, consum?
ing two foot per hoar, gives the light of two
and a quarter candles only, while a burner
consuming seven and one-half feet per hour
gives tho light of twonty-two candles, the
pressure being uniformly four-tenths of an
inch.
Tho knowledge of those facts is of impor?
tance to the consumer, who may, in his en?
deavor to economize, obtain resolta directly
opposite to his anticipations. It is more
economioal to have one good, largo gaslight
than several small ones.
! Globes, Glasses, etc.-Although chlmnoyv
aro essential to argand humors, and globes,
also, iu many places where fish-tail burners
are used, aaa the ornamental effect is pleas?
ant, still they are detrimental to the diffusion
of the light of gos.
A clean glass globe obstructs abooiP.12 per ct.
A olean globe cot iu Agares.24 per ct.
A globe ground all over in figures.... 10 per ct.
An opal globe with figures.60 per ct.
Hence is apparent the folly of using elabo?
rately engraved and ground globes or shades,
where it ia desirable to economize. If en?
graved at all, the upper portion should be em?
bellished, while th? lower part should be left
clear for the free passage of fight.

You May Be Too Late.
Be warned in time. Diseases like Indigestion sad
Dyspepsia are not to be trifled with. There is such
a thing as being too late in these matters. Inflam?
mation, or Scirrhus Cancer, or some other danger?
ous disease may ensue, when all restoratives, no
matter how potent, would be Ineffectual Do jot
delay them. When the symptoms of Dyspepsia are
first experienced, resort at once to the great reste ra-1

and you will be safo.
But few disorders involve greater suffering, sad,
if not in itself immediately dangerous, it is the
source of many deadly maladies. Even if it did not
tend to greater evil, the mental and physical mitery
it produces ls alone a sufficient reason why no prdna
should be spared to prevent or cure lt. In no
country on the face of the glebe is it so completely
domesticated as in our own, where it is found In

eign remedy for this annoying disease, ss they act j
directly upon the digestive organs, correct and ione
the stomach, and give renewed vitality to the ey s eva.
Acting delightfully upon the nerves, and soothing
the brain, renders them efficacious as a muntal
medicine, as well as a genial stomachic. If tiken
as a preventive, they will be found particularly well

B0DUNDA ISLAND GUANO.
A. Pure, Unmixed, i Saturai Guano, sui
Fine aa Klour (ali lieu g li not Ground),
Joist In the Condition In which lt ls
Imported from the Island.
THIS GUANO IS FROM A RECENTLY DIS?
COVERED deposit cn Rodunda Island, in the
Carri bean H ea. West Indies, latitude 16 degrees 66
minutes north, longitude 63 degrees 33 minutes |
west
lt. bas been used for many years in tho West India
Islands in the o ul tl TB tl OD of Sugar Cane and cereals
with great success; was introduced far the first time
to the farmers and plant? rs of tbe United States in
tho spring of 1866, and has met with unprecedented
success, as the subjoined reports and testimoniale ful?
ly corroborate.
The RODUNDA GUANO is not a mineral Jphoe
phfcte, requiring tbs action of the Sulphuric Acid to
render it soluble; ita great power as a fertiliser ls in
its entire solubility, without the sid of acid. It is
not a "manlpulaUon" or Compound of Fish or Flesh
wi I h Minorat Phosphate*, the. regularity of which is
always uncertain and dependent upon, and controll?
ed by the honesty of the manufacturer. The RO?
DI "ND A is a PURE NATURAL GUANO (that term
being understood tornean tho excrement offish-eat?
ing birds), as the large per ?entage of organic mat?
ter sufficiently attests, and as found upon the Island
of Rodunda, in the very state as im ported and sold
to consumers.
The regularity and uniformity of the fineness and
condition of the various cargoes already imported by
us into the United States, tested by the analysis of
the most eminent Chemists of this country and Eu?
rope, is sufficient proof of its origin and a guarantee
of our ability to furnish this Guano of the quality
> and purity represented.
The PRICE of the RODUNDA GUANO ls not the
least unimportant in these days of agricultural com?
petition and iK'Cuniary embarrassment.
The vee lon price at which lt can bs sold places it
within the reach of every farmer, and avoids the risk
of large loss frequently incurred by failures of the
crops In the purchase of high priced fertilizers.
In the preparation of lands for Wheat as . other
cereals this Guano possesses properties that render
it more desirable for these crops than any yet offered
to the public.
Pamphlets containing the analysis and experi?
ments made by the most prominent Chemists of this
country and in Europe, together with innumerable
certificates of its entire success from farmers and
planters, can be obtained at our Office, to which we
Unite attention.
Price >40 per Ton, in bags or barrels, in Chasles
