 May 13tli, 1858. $ 

 Gentlemen — In my letter of last week I gave 

 you a percentage for the Phosphate of Lime in 

 the SOMBRERO GUANO you sent me for analy- 

 sis, which I suspected at the time to be too higli, 

 as I informed you. An error was probably made 

 in the weighing. 



The analysis has since been repeated by both 

 Dr. Tuttle and myself, and I submit the follow- 

 ing as a reliable result: 



Phosphate of lime, 83.43 

 Carbonate of lime, 3.45 

 Insoluble matter, 1.18 

 Moisture and organic matter, 11.47 



99.53 



The organic matter in the Guano was too 

 inconsiderable to be deemed worthy of separate 

 estimation. 



Very respectfully your ob't serv't, 



S. MAUPIN. 



Messrs. Edmond & Davenport, Richmond, Va. 



The above was an average sample of Som- 

 brero Guano from the bark Christiana's cargo, 

 (315 tons). We refer to a former advertise- 

 ment as to what other eminent chemists think 

 of this Guano ; and among planters of our own 

 State, to whom we would refer, we name the 

 Rev. J. S. Armistead, of Cumberland, who has 

 purchased for himself and friends some twenty 

 tons of it.
