A FEMALE HIGHWAY BOBBEE.-A robbery of a very bold character was committed at a late hour Tuesday night, by an unknown woman, at the corner of DeKalb and Clermont avenues. It appears that about ll o'clock, a man named Leonard Bur tis, while passing tho corner in ques? tion on his way home, was accosted by a woman, who inquired the hour. Mr. Burtis was in tho act of taking his watch from bis pocket for the purpose of furnishing her with the information desired, when suddenly she applied to his mouth and nose a handkerchief saturated with chloro? form. Burtis, overcome by the fumes of tho drug, sank to the pavement quite insensible. About half an hour after Le regained sensibility, and then discovered that his watch and $600 were missing. He immediately proceeded to the forty-fourth pre? cinct station house, where he related the circumstances of tue affair to Sergt. Smith. No clue has been ob? tained of the bold woman. [New York Express. That portion of humanity who are doomed by fashion to wear hats, are often annoyed by people exchanging or carrying off their head-gear. Fre? quent misfortunes of this kind havo led a New Yorker to patent an inven? tion to prevent a hat being carried off by any other person than tho owner, "by applying to it an ob? struction which shall impede or pre? vent its wear excepting at the will of the person to whom said head cover belongs;" and the invention is de? scribed as consisting of a "suitable locking obstruction so applied to tho hat as to restrain tho latter from being worn till such obstruction is removed or sufficiently displaced by unlocking it." > r> 9 o S 2 .g.

A fair trial, however small, is respectfully I solicited. J. IL ENSLOW ? CO., Charleston, 8. C. Read thc following testimonials: At Home, near Marietta, Qa., Oct. 16. A. J. lioborts ft Co., Atlanta, Ga. Gentlemen: I am well pleased with tho result of the uso of tho "Doublo Refined Poudrotto" on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wherever it was applied tho yield was moro than doublo what it would havo been without it. I regrot exceedingly my not using it moro extensively tho present* year, but will try to mako up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring". I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable, and easiest man? aged fertilizer within my knowlodgo, and cheerfully recommend it (as I havo tried it thoroughly) to the farmers of this section, and particularly to those planting cotton, from the fact of its causing 'it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without tho uso of tho Pondrette. I aleo used it on mv garden, and found it of much benefit to ail kinds of plants. Very respectfully, Ac. G. 8. OGLESBY. Extract from a letter received from Prof. Martin, of Hampden. Sidney College, Va., dated July 1, 1867: The Doable Refined Pondrette is operat? ing like a charm on my crop, and attract? ing universal attention from all beholders. I am already satisfied that it is the cheap? est and hurest renovator of our worn-out landa. - High Shoals, Ga., October 4, 1867. James II. Dey, Esq. .Sir: Tho Doublo Refilled Pondrette I bought for two other parties in connection with myself-one of tnem used it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered finely; thc other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled his crop. 1 used it on corn, it answered finely, and was thought by tho hand that cultivated tho crop to be fully equal to Rhode'sSupoi Phosphate. I also used it on about ai] aero of cotton, and I am clearly of opinion that it is the beat and cheapest fertilizei in uso, and I expect to order several tone this winter. Yours, verv respectfully, ISAAC; POWELL. Ellaville, Schley Co., Ga , Oct. 4, 1867. Tho Doublo Refined Pondrette, pur chased of you last spring, I think, in creased my crop of cotton 150 pounds poi acre; put it upon worn-out pino land, a tho rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled ii with cotton seed. Yours, Ac, S. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury, .V. C., August 10, 1867. James R. Dey, Esq. Dear Sir: ' I can safely say that you Doublo Refined Poudretle is far superio to am other fertilizer for cotton; for 1 havi given it a fair trial this season. Yours, JEHU FOSTER, Ju. Savannah. Ga., September 25, 1867. James R. Dey, Esq., President. Dear Sir: I used tho Double Refine Poudrette, bought of yon last spring, o: corn. I think it increased the yield one half. I consider it an excellent manure Respectfully, T. HOLCOMBE. Ridgeway, S. C., September 21, 1867. Mr. James R. Dey. Sir: I applied tho Doublo Refined Fou drette hy itself, and in combination wit other fertilizers, on cotton, and am please with it; so much BO that it is my preser intention to purchase a larger supply < you thc next year to apply to my cotto crop. Yours very respectfully, HENRY C. DAVIS. Hock g Mount, Edgecomb Co., X. C. Nor 1 Jame's R. Dey, Esq. Sir: In reply to your inquiry of tho n suits of our experienco in the use of yoi improved Poudrette-purchased of you f< this year's cotton crop-wo would beg lea^ to say that tho present season has bec one quite unfavorable to the action of s fertilizers. Several kinds of manures were need I us, with the excepti n of your Poudrott with little or no effect to tho crop. Where the Poudrette was used, it ga' UB near half a halo moro per acre, ai caused tho cotton to open much earlie and wo would, therefore, recommend tl samo as a concentrated manure for tl growth of cotton, as well aa improvcnic to the soil.
