Rhode Island was founded by Dr. "Wolf and other 'African slave traders, who made immense fortunes from the bc si ness. It was originaly known as ' Providenoe Plantations, and was the range of so many thieves, rob? bers and such outlaws, that it was named Rogue's Island, and likely would have been thus named to this day, had not the engraver who made the first map of it for school pur? poses changed it to Khode Island, for some reason known to himself. Baltimore last year was a port at which a considerable number of im? migrante landed. The total for the year footing np 10,768, of whom 9,225 came in sailing vessels, and the others in steamers. The greater number of those immigrants were farm laborers, and some brought money with them, in sums from $200 to $1,800. JottN H.

Strong Plate Teeth as firmly attached to tho oaee as if solderod to swaged ;iio to( ire by this procese, suba?tatfi? Tur those specially designed for moulded base. By their use the operator is left free to ex? ercise his own judgment in tboir arrange? ment, and finds himself no longer confined to the sameness of the present stylo of blocks, or singlo teeth weakened by*carv? ing for moulded work. No now appbancos are required in this process. It is easily acquired by any one familiar with rdther moulded or swaged work. It gives to the operator confidence in the reliability of his cases, exempting him from tho disappointment and per? plexity often attendant on his most faith? ful snorts, lt renders partial cases as reli? able as full sets, and, consequently, will tend to ameliorate tho present deplorablo practice of extracting every tooth, sound or unsound, which utanda in the way of the latter.

J. H. F.NSLOW A CO., Charleston, 8. C. Read the following testimonials: At Home, near Marietta, O a.. Oat. IC A. J. Roberts A Co., Atlanta, Ga. Gentlemen: I am well pleased with tho result of the uso of the "Double Refined Poudrotto" on my crops. I tried ic on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wherever it was applied tho yield was more than double what it would bavo been without it. I regret exceedingly my not using it more extensively the present year, but will try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard it as the L most reliable, and easiest man? aged fertilizer within my knowledge, and ? cheerfully recommend it fas I have tried it thoroughly ) to the farmers of this section, and particularly to those planting cotton, . from the fact of its causing lit to mature j from ton days to two weeks earlier than it would without tho use of the Poudrotto. I. also used it on my garden, and found it of muoh benefit to all kinds of plants. Very respectfully, Ac. G. 8. OGLESBY. Extract from a lotter received from Pref. Martin, of Hampden. Sidney College, Va, dated July 1,1867: The Doublo Refined Pondrette is operat? ing like a oharm on my crop, and attract? ing universal attention from all beholders. I am already satisfied that it is the cheap? est and surest renovator of our worn-out landa. - Sigh Shoals, Ga., October 4, 18C7. James R. Dey, Esq. Sir: The Double Refined Poudrette I bought for two other parties in connection with myself-one of them need it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answored finely; the other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled his crop. I used it on corn. It answered finely, and was thought by tho hand that cultivated the crop to be fully equal to Rhode's Super Phosphate. I also used it on about an acre of cot tun, and I am clearly of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and I expect to order several tons, this winter. Yours, very* respectfuUv, ISAAC POWELL. Ellaville, Scldey Co., Ga , Od. 4, 18G7. The Double Refined Poudretto, pur? chased of you last spring, I think, in? creased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per acre; put it upon worn-out pino land, at the rate of 200 pounds per tere, drilled in with cotton seeu.

Savannah, Ga., September '25, 1SC7 James R. Dey, Esq., President. Dear Sir: I used thu Doublo Refined Poudrette, bought of you last spring, on corn. I think it increased the yield one half. I consider it an excellent" manure. Respe ctfully, T. HOLCOMBE. liidgeway, 8. C., September 21, 1867. Mr. James R. Dey. Sir: I applied the Doublo Refil ed Pon? drette by itself, and in combination with* other fertilizers, on cotton, and am pleas? d with it; so much so that it is my present intention to purchase a larger supply ol you the next year to apply to my cotton crop. Yours very respect folly HENRY C. DAVIS. Roc* y Mount, Edgecomb Co., X. C. Nov 13. James R. Dey, E.-q. Sin In reply to your inquiry of the re? sults of our experience in the use of your improved Poudrette-purchased of you for tbiB year's cotton crop-we would beg leave to say that tho present season has been ono quite unfavorable to the action of all fertilizers. I Several kinds of manures wore used by ; us, with tho exception of your Poudrette, I with little or no effect to the crop. Where the Poudrette was used, it gavo us near half a bale more per acre, and' caused the cotton to open much earlier; and wo would, therefore, recommend tho same as a concentrated maumu for the growth of co'ton, as well a? impiovouicnt to the soil.
