Thus fail the bl 'itcd flowers Beneath his ecorching showers. THE CWPVS QUEEN. It waa a strange scene. The wa? gon was close to the circus-formed, indeed, part of it-the poor woman was lying on the low shelf, called the bed, of the traveling caravan; two or three of the wires of tho men at? tached to the exhibition were round her, endeavoring by their exertions to relieve momentarily increasing pain, and helping her to .bear it patiently by their sympathy. "He Ought to have been here half an hour ago," said one of the wo? men. "Jim started for him on the piebald two hours sinoe." "Did he take the piebald?" said another.' "Why I thought he was in the Italian Lovers?" "No, he wouldn't run with the spotted mare, so they've put the blind gray with her, and took the piebald in the quadrille for Dick Gravel to take bottom couple with." The explanation seemed satisfac? tory, for .silence ensued. Presently a roar of ?such laughter as is only heard in a circus at a coun? try village-fresh, genuine, hearty shook the sides of the frail vehicle. "What's that?" said the apparent? ly dying woman. "Only your Bill's Quaker story," said one. "Oh, then, he'll soou bo here, won't he?" said she. ''Yes, he's only got three more points, and then he'll come; he don't go in the Sylph scene." Three fainter peals of laughter told that the three points had bit, but not as well as the Quaker story; and then he came in. . , "Well "said he, "how is she ?ow?" 'in a voice whose anxiety contrasted most strangely with his tawdy dress, that of tumbling down at a traveling eirena "How ia she now?" 'Tm better, Bill," said the wo? man. "Gan you stop a little?" "Yes; I don't go in next, its Chap? man's turn; and so saying, the man seated himself by the side of the woman. She was still young, and, as far as the dim light hung from tho roof would enable a judgment to be form? ed, good-looking; the cork-grimed eye-brows, cracked Ups, and dry cheeks, told that she, too, had appear? ed before the public for its amusement; indeed, the braces of rouge were still on parts of the face, and told too truly that she had lain there bat a short ti me-only since the last even? ing's performance, indeed; when, during one of her jumps through the hoop, a man's patting on his hat started the horse, and so caused a . false step, which brought her heavi . ly to the ground. The experienced ring-master saw'she could scarcely stand, and handed her ?ont, kissing her hand in the Banal style; and few, if any, of the spectators knew that when rapturously applauding the most unparalleled feat-the loop from the horse's back through the hoop to tho ground-their applause was un? heard by their intended objeot. She had fainted imm?diat"1^ on reaching the dressing-room, and was at' once carried to the moving chamber ?where she now lay. But to return. She took hie hand in hers, saying: "Bill, I don't think I shall go round any more." "Dou't aay so, lass; it'll be aft right when the doctor comes." 4 'No, Bill; I feel better, but some? thing t-dls me I've put on the togs for the last time.*' "No, hiss, too*" was all the utterance he could find. "Don't say sol" After a pause, she said: "Bill, you recollect that London chap with the French name, that came down to ?he Doncaster races?" "Ob, yes, I know," said the maa, half angrily, as if wishing to avoid the subject. "Well, you know yon said that time that you thought there was some? thing between me and him." "Well, I know it," said the man, "but don't think of that now; don't; trouble about that." "But I must, Bill. I think Tm dying, Bill, dear, and I should like j you to think of me when I'm gone, as f am truly, Bill." The man made no answer. "Bill," said the woman, with in ?rcasing vehemence of manner, "do you believe I'd tell you a lie now?" J?0 answer still. ' .?*"IWJ: ^.B? .yi^' thjnk I'd tell vpn] ?* lio now?" said abe,' aa ih?ughher ] life depended on. his answer. ".Up, no, lasa,'' said he at last; "I don't think you'd tell a lie any time? but ??wrr-.'' *ud lie hesitated. , "Where> Jenny?" interrupted the woman. "Here," said ono of the youngest women, standing up, so that she might be seen. "What do' yon wont?" v,cJenny4 yonH fond the key of the green trunk in the china mug with .-Nelly' on it, I wish you'd look in the box, and get mo my old Bible I ont." I The girl found the key, and asked where the box was? ' "Ob, dear, I forgot, it's under me," said the woman., "There, never mind," said he, "I don't want any foss about it." .'Ob, Bill, dear, I wish you'd lift me up a little, and pull it out. You eau put the broken chair under to I hc6j> mo up then. " "NO, never mind," said he, "it'll pain you so." "Oh, Bill, dear, I don't mind, I wish you would. He did it at last; and, after some trouble, and a few suppressed groans, the box was pulled out to the middle of -the floor, opened, and there, wrapped up in paper and neatly hid, was the Bible; the paper greasy from contact with disused head-dresses, garlands, bands and other small ac-1 oes8ories of the dress of the Queen of | the Circua. They gave it to the wo? man, who soon asked, "Where's Mary?" "Oh, she is here now," said one of the women ; and a girl about five carno running in ; she had only been performing the part of a little fairy in the just-finished scene; her wand was still in her hand, and the gauze wings on her shoulders; she took them on, laid down the silvered stick, and came to the bed. "Mary, dear, are you there?" "Yes, mother, I'm just done, and the people clapped so when Julia j took me on her shoulder. 'Put her on the box, she can't seo her," suggested some ono; it was J pushed to where the child stood, and j then the mother said: "Mary, I'm going away." "Oh, mother, where to?'' "But before I go, I want you to see me and father friends again." The child started with wonder; but the woman, not heeding her, con tinned: "Bill, dear, have you got tho paper off the Bible? Well, open it at tho New Testament." .'Here, oe of you women, find it. Jenny, will.. ou?" said the man. Jenny old it, and gave it back. "Now, Bill, raise me up a little." "Oh, never mind," said he, "I know you'll get hurt." She only looked a repetition of her request; and then taking the open book from his hands said: "Bill, dear, you know you said there was something wrong between that Lon? don chap and me. I told you at the time there was not, and you didn't believe me, though yon didn't say so; and you don't believe it now," she said, with increased energy. "Now, Bill, hear me swear that, as I believe I'm a dying woman, there was nothing between us, and this child's your own, as much as Mary, there, ia." She kissed the book, and said: "Do yon believe me now?" lOOOTTOtTED IN OUR NEXT. I ft - i * S - I. f Sil ? ?5 i o s i?'

Gentlemen: I am well pleased with the roBult of the UBC of the ''Double Refined Poudrette" on my crops. 11 ried i t on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wherever it was applied tho yield was moro than double what it would nave been without it. X regret exceedingly my not using it more extensively tho prosont year, but will try to mako up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard it aa the cheapest, meet reliable, and easiest man? aged fertilizer within niv knowledge; uucurfuiiy recommend it (as I have tried it thoroughly) to the farmers of thia section, and particularly to those planting cotton, <~rom tho fact of its causing 'it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without the use of tho Poudrette I ah-o used it on niv garden, and found it of much benefit to all kinda of plants. Very respectfully, Ac. G. S. OGLE8RY. Extract from a lotter received from Prof. Martha, of Hampden. Sidney Collego, Va., dated July 1, 1867: The Double Refined Poudrette is operat? ing like a charm on my crop, and attract? ing universal attention from aU beholders. I am already satisfied that it is the cheap? est and surest renovator of our worn-out lands. - High Shoats, Ga., October 4, 1867. James R. Dey, Esq. Sir: The Double Refinod Poudrette I bought for two other parties in connection with myself-one of them UBed it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered finely; the other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled his crop. I uaed it on corn. It answered finely, and was thought by the hand that cultivated the crop to bu fully equal to Rhodo'a Boper Phosphate. I also uaed it on about au acre of cotton, and I am clearly of opinion that it ia the beat and cheapest fertilizer in uso, and I expect to order several tone thia winter. Youre, very respectfully, ISAAC FOWELL. Ellaville, Saltley Do., Ga., Oct. 4,18G7. The Double Refined Poudrette, pur? chased of you last spring, I think, in? creased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per acre; put it upon worn-out pine land, at the rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled in with cotton Beca. Yours, Ac, S. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury, JV. C., August 10, 1867. James R. Doy? Esq. Dear Sir: i can safely Bay that your Double Refined Poudrette ia far superior to any other fertilizer for cotton; for I have given it a fair trial this season. Yours, JEHU FOSTER, Jn. Savannah, Ga., September 25, 1867. James R. Dey, Esq., President. Dear Sir: I used tho Double Refined Poudrette, bought of you last spring, on corn. I think it increased the yield one half. I consider it an excellent manure. Respectfully, T. HOLCOMDE. Ridgeway, S. C., September 21,1867. Mr. James R. Dey. Sir: 1 applied the Double Refined Pou? drette by itself, and in combination with other fertilizers, on cotton, and am pleased with it; BO much BO that it iu my present intention to purchase a larger supply of you the next year to apply to my cotton crop. Yours very reapectfully, HENRY C. DAVIS. Rocky Mount, Edgecom? Co., JV. C. Not 13. James R. Dey, Esq. Sir: In reply to your Inquiry of tho re? sults of our experience in the use of your improved Poudrette-purchased of you for this year's cotton crop-wo would beg lea . e to say that the present season has been ono quito unfavorable to the action of all fertilizers. Several kinda of manures were used by ?B, with the exception of your Poudrette, with little or no effect to the crop. Where tho Pondretto waa need, it gave ua near half a bale more per acre, and cauaed the cotton to open much carlior; and we would, therefore, recommend the same aa a concentrated manure for the growth of cotton, as well as improvement to the soil.
