The Bchools arc prospering, as far as we know. Mr. Lightfoot is going into his new store. Teach your boy? that they go to school or college to learn how to work, and not how to shun work. Dr. Dukes is building ? fino resi dence next to his lather's hotel on Russell street. If Council don't strike the line widening Russell street, we will have a crooked affair of it. Mr. Cornolnon'8 store is getting on finely, and it is not going to be any small thing either. The truth is Cor nelson don't deal in small things. Messrs. Cannon & Sain are erecting a neat store on the burnt district, at Wallace Cannon's old stand. Things are going the right way. Put your stores on Russsll street and your residences in the vicinity of the depot, on or near the new street. We notice our young friend Lewis Fischer has opened a ntat little fruit and oy3ter store one door east of Mr. A. Fischer. Lewis is an energetic fellow, and tries to please all who favor him with a call. Things are a little muddled about the location of that cotton bale. How ever, we have now turned our atten tion to the location of the lots on the burnt district, with which we hope to have better success. C. D. Kortjohii advertises at full atv.i splendid stock of groceries, liquors, cigars, Ac.; which are bound to plen.se all who try them*. He pros pel's, simply because lie is a business mau and knows how to suit hit cus tomers. Give him a call. F. DeMars, Esq., has made an im provement in his business arrange ments. The front of his establish ment is fitted up as a first class gro cery store, and the rear for liquors, <Src. Mr. DeMars is a first rate bus iness man, and whatever lie attempts he does thoroughly. Go and examine 1)is stock. Everybody will be pleased with his fair dealing. Sec his adver tisement. McMicunel & Illume. These young merchants deserve a great deal of credit fnr the way in which they have rallied from the dis asters of the fire. By their euergy they saved their stock, and are now located at the brick store, corner of Russell and B rough ton streets. They sell tho best of goods at reasonable rates. Road their advertisement and give them a call. Burglaries. On Friday night a band of burg lars entered tho stores of Bull, Scovill & Pike, J. G. Vose, P. Doyle and J. P. Thompson and carried off what they wanted. . The indications are that they are well organized and sup plied with all the necessary instru ments. It is said that they also tried their hand on the storo of Wolfo & Wilcock, but wore fired, upon by Mr. Mitchcl, who was on the. look out. Joseph McNuiriara. It is hard for us to realize that "in the midst of life wo arc in death." One by one our comrades fall by the way side and we pass on, pausing .but for a moment, and then mingling again in the bustling scenes of time. We have been heavily afflicted in a material view by our recent disas ter, but it is Jar more melancholy to look back and recall the names of the good citizens we have lost in a few months. Scarcely has the soothing influence.'! of time mitigated the pangs or dried tho tears at the loss of Col. Oliver, Rev. Keitu Legare, Mr. James Jones and'Mr. Jonney, than we are called upon to mourn at the gravo of Dr. Oliveros, and now again of Mr. Jo seph McNamara. Mr. McNamara was probably one of the heaviest sufferers by tho fire; and' doubtless tho pressure of his troubles hastened his end. Ho was an experienced and educa ted merchant, a useful citizen n?d a kind fried. His sensibilities were tender and his disposition generous, and ho will be sorely missed by tho community. He leaves a largo family, to whom we extend our heartfelt sympathies. We return thanks for au invitation to tho anniversary celebration of the Graham Lee Society of tho Washing ton nnd Lee University of Virginia. Tho orator of tho occasion was N. A. Stcadman, of Texas, and the debate.! were C. A. Dailey, of Texas, B. Jacks and W. Gregory, of Tennessee, and J. L. Lisle, of Kentucky. We notice on tho committee of in vitation tho name of J. W. Sto'.ces, of | South Carolina, a promising young citizen of Orangebnrg county,for whom we predict n distinguished future. He is a son of Mr. Jas. Stokes of our county. The real "banditti" are Kellogg, Pack ard, Bcckwith, and the rest of the "ring" who are running the usurping government in Louisiana, and who have enlisted Pres ident Grant, a part of his cabinet, and a few influential members of congress in support of their effrrt to perpetuate their stolen lease of power.?New York Tribune. A CARD. Dr. T. Berwick Lcgarc, dentist, respect fully informs his patrons nnd friends that that ho has rmoved his office to his home, where he can be consulted by those who de sire his professional services. If notified through the post office or oth erwise), lie will cheerfully visit those who reside at a distance in the country. LOST? LOST!! LOST!!!

GUANAIIaNI GUANO, An important nah ral Guano?a genuine Animal Deposit. A cargo of 500 tons now on the way to this port. This guano gave great satisfaction in Virginiu and North Carolina the past season. Circular and cer tificates sent on application. Prof. Wilson, of Baltimore, Md., says or this guano: "By n critical examination of the analysis of the various cargoes you have" imported, a striking feature is the great regularity in the percentage of tho impor tant constituents essential for the produc tion of all crops." Prof. F. A. Genth, of Philadelphia, Penn., sava: "The guano is evidently of animal or igin, and the minute bones which wero dis covered in the same indicate that it is tho result of the decay of bats, mice, &c. The quantity of organic matter winch is still present is about 12 per cent., and this yields about 2\ per cent of ammonia. A portion of the nitrogen is preseut ns nitric acid, of which about 3 per cent, were found. All the nitrogen present would bo equivalent to about 8J per cent, of ammonia. The phos phoric acid in the guano avernged about 12J per cent., equal to 27.8 per cent, of Bone Phosphate. A considerable quantity of the phosphoric acid, however, is present as ho j called neutral Phosphate of Lime, which, j being slightly soluble in water, renders the Guano as quick in its action as a correspond ing quantity of Superphospatcs would do. The small percentage of potash which was found in analysis adds to its value. From nil the experiments which 1 Imvc made of the Guanahani Gunno no doubt can exist that it is a valuable manure." Prof. 11. C White, of the Georgia State Agricultural Society, says: "As shown by the analysis, this guano contains, in good proportion, nil the elements which nre gen erally considered as of value for plant food, and the forma and combinations in which they are present arc such as to render them available to and assimilable by the plant, I should judge that the proper use of this ar ticle for purposes of fertilization would be attended with great profit." Prof. Charles U. Shepard, Jr., in a recent analysis of this Guano, says: "This Gunno (of animal origin) would appear from it* physical and chemical properties to answer every reasonable expectation of a chemical manure."
