THE INDEPENDENT, 
! A KJELIGIOUS FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
CIRCULATION OVER 25,0001!! 
And Rapidly Increasing. 
That no other weekly religious newspaper ever met with 
the succes of The Independent must now be universally admit¬ 
ted. It has been the aim of the proprietors, without regard to 
expense, to make it rank in point of talent as high as the best 
journal of a similar character in the world ; and to make it 
popular only so far as this could be done by treacling boldly 
■and firmly in the path of Christian duty—“not as pleasing 
men, but God.” 
A crisis has arrived when every Christian is called upon to 
ask, “Lord what wilt thou have me to do” in a conflict for 
principle and human rights as great as the world has ever 6een. 
No voice can now be silent with impunity. If the religious 
press or Christian men now refuse either to speak or to act, the 
very stones will cry out for Heaven's sorest judgments, and we 
snail ba left as a nation to fill up the measure of our iniquity. 
Now is the time to prove who are the true lovers of liberty, 
and to demonstrate who are the worthy descendeuts of the fa¬ 
thers of the Revolution, who were willing to lay down their 
lives to secure for this fair country an inheritance of freedom. 
The Independent will enter the field side by side with all who 
desire to do battle for truth, justice and humanity. With all tho 
power God may give it, it will urge the Christian public to do 
with their might what their hands find to do to save our be¬ 
loved country from the death-grasp of Slavery. It will advo¬ 
cate freedom of speech, freedom of the press, free soil, free 
men, and—-Fre-mont for the next President. Those who 
think a religious paper should not thus freely join with the 
secular press in doing this extraordinary work, are informed 
that the matter has been calmly considered, the cost counted, 
and the conclusion deliberately and conscientiously arrived at, 
that duty to God and man precludes a moment's hesitation as 
to the course which ought to be taken by this paper. Those 
who sympathize with it, of every name and party, and they 
are thousands, will aid the cause by doing all they can to ex¬ 
tend its circulation. 
Those unacquainted with The Independent are informed that 
the paper will furnish articles weekly as follows: 
1st. Religious Editorials, Selections, and current Religions 
News. . 
2d. Editorials discussing the great Moral and Political 
Questions of the day. 
3d. Communications from regular wee kly contributors, em¬ 
bracing every variety of topic suited to a Christian family—to 
, l e living, not to the dead. 
4th. Foreign and Domestic Correspondence. 
5th. Reviews and Special Articles on important topics by the 
ablest living writers. 
6th. An Article on Agriculture, embracing information 
from all parts of the country in relation to the condition of the 
crops. 
7th. A Review of the New York Cftttle and Produce markets. 
8th. A Price Current, carefully corrected weekly. 
9th. A Commercial and Financial Article, embracing topics 
suited especially to business life, and containing all the impor¬ 
tant news of the day, including a List of Failures from all 
parts of the country. 
10th. Poetry, Religious Items, Reports of Public Meetings, 
Book-notices and Reviews, and other matters interesting to 
the reading public.

COLOMBIAN GUANO—TRY IT. 
From the June Number American Farmer, (published in 
Baltimore.) 
We call attention to Ihe advertisement of the Philadelphia 
Guano Company, who have recently made a contract with 
the Republic ot Venezuela, by which they are authorized for a 
series ot years, to export the guano from all the Islands be¬ 
longing to that government. As those Islands are located in 
the Caribbean Sea, at a short distance—about 1900 miles— 
from our own shores, the cost of freight is comparatively 
trifling, and the article can therefore bo furnished at very low 
rates, when compared with the price demanded for Peruvian 
Guano. 
The guano islands embraced in the contract of this Company 
are numerous, and the character of the deposits to some ex¬ 
tent varies in the proportion of organic matter, ammonia, and 
the phosphates they contain. Tliey are all, however, as com¬ 
pared with the Peruvian, much richer in tho phosphates, and 
less abundantly supplied with organic matter and ammonia.— 
At, present we understand the Company design importing only 
that quality designated by the Inspector, Mr. Reese, as Colom¬ 
bian Guano, which is by far the richest phosphatic guano ever 
yet discovered, containing more than three times the amount 
ot phosphates found in the Peruvian, and much more than is 
found in bone dust, and Mexican Guano—Peruvian Guano 
rarely contains more than from 15 to 30 per cent, of the bone 
phosphate of lime, and the different brands of the Mexican 
Guano, as inspected at Baltimore, contain from 25 to 67 per 
cent, while the guano marki d by the State Inspector Colombian 
letter, A. contains Phosphoric Acid, equal to from 80 to 90 per 
cent, of Bone Phosphate of Lime, and the guano marked 
Colombian letter B. contains Phosphoric Acid equal to from 70 
to 80 per cent, of Bone Phosphate of Lime. 
Without entering into the discussion as to the comparative 
value of ammoniacal and phosphatic manures, no one pretends 
to doubt the real value of the latter, while some of the highest 
authorities among men of science, attribute the chief value of 
all guanoes to the phosphates they contain Be this as it may, 
experience seems to have determined that the phosphatic ma¬ 
nures are of more permanent duration, and that where they are 
less efficient as.to the crop of wheat, they endure longer, and are 
more effecti vein the after growth of clover and grasses. Those 
of courso who adopt the views of Prot. Liebig, and other high 
authorities, as to the value of mineral manures, will readily 
admit the great superiority of Colombian Guano over other 
varieties, it being as stated in the U. S. Patent Ofiice report 
for 1854, “by far the richest source of phosphoric acid for ihe 
farmer yet discovered,” and in the words of Dr Stewart, the 
“ 2Ve Ptus Ultra ot Phosphatic Guanoes.” 
The virtues of bone dust as a permanent fertilizer are well 
understood, and the ordinary Mexican Guanoes have been ex¬ 
tensively experimented with, and their value acknowledged.— 
Whatever merits these manures possess, must exist in a high 
degree in Colombian Gnano, on account of its superior richness 
in the leading fertilizing principle—the phosphates—common 
to them all. 
The difficulty made as to these manures, that they are not 
soluble, and the consequent doubts aud apprehensions of far¬ 
mers who are convinced of the value of their main constituent 
as to their availability in the production of crops, is worthy of 
consideration. 
1. In the use of these manures it would seem, that ultimate¬ 
ly, at any rate, if not immediately, the farmer must reap the 
benefit of their application. They furnish an indispensable 
ingredient of fertility, and necessary constituent of plants. If 
it is not in condition to furnish the food of plants at once it is 
only held in reserve until brought under the influence of sol¬ 
vents, which, sooner or later, are sure to make it available A 
very observant farmer bas said to us within a few days, that he 
will defy any one to find a piece of bone in his soil after the 
second or third year, from the time of application. He uses 
no acid or other solvent, and does not care to have the bones 
ground fine. And let it be remarked that while a quick return 
is more immediately profitable, a slower but certain return is 
much safer for the land. 
2. Tho solubility of Phosphates greatly depends upon the 
mode in which they are prepared. From good bones finely 
ground a beneficial effect is almost always immediately derived 
From Mexican Guano some benefit seems always to accrue 
during the first year after its application, as well as on suc¬ 
ceeding crops. 
3. Whatever justice or forcejhere may be in the objection ot 
insolubility as applied to bone dust and Mexican Guano, does 
not rest, it is contended, against the Colombian Guano It is 
reduced to a fine powder by grinding, and is thus prepared 
perfectly for the action of any solvent which may exist in or 
may find its way to the soil. But independent of this it is’as- 
serted that it contains so large an excess of free phosphoric 
acid, that a sufficient portion for the use of plants during the 
first year after its application is rendered immediately soluble 
This is questioned, and we give the authorities. 
Dr. Stewart in his analysis states the percentage of phos¬ 
phate of lime to be 77.49, and of free phosphoric acid 5.23 
which latter substance he states would produce to each tun of 
2,000 lbs., “215 lbs. of nascent soluble snper-phosphates, be¬ 
sides 1,550 lbs. of the common bone phosphates of other phos¬ 
phatic Guanoes. 
Dr. James R. Chilton, of New Yoik, gives as the resultof an 
analysis of a specimen recently submitted to him 74.87 percent 
of neutral phosphate of Lime, with a little phosphate of mag¬ 
nesia, and 13.14 per cent, of soluble phosphate of time, with 6.67 
of organic matter, with ammonia. 
Dr. Hayes, of Boston, states that “it is in fact a kind of 
natural bi-phosphate of lime, by far the most valuable of any of 
those compounds yet discovered, when compared weight with 
weight” 
Professor James C. Booth, of Philadelphia, in the specimen 
he analysed, found 74.35 of phosphate of lime and magnesia, 
and 9.60 of free phosphoric acid, and he protionnces it “ a re¬ 
markable substance, containing naturally 84 per cent, of dry 
snper-phosphate of lime.” He also states that he would “pre¬ 
fer it greatly to any artificial super-phosphate, for any purpose 
to which the latter is applied.” 
On the other hand, Dr. Piggot, in his communication pub¬ 
lished in our No. of September last says, “strangely enough, 
the very erroneous opinion was quite commonly entertained, 
that the phosphoric acid in this hard enamelled rock, is com¬ 
bined with lime in proportion to form a super-phosphate,” and 
after stating the results of his analysis, remarks:—“ Tho most 
cursory inspection ot these results, is sufficient to convince any 
one at all acquainted with Chemistry, that the lime cannot be 
united with phosphoric acid, to form a super-phosphnte.” 
The analysis of Dr. Biekell, published some time after, if we 
mistake not, sustained the opinion of Dr. Piggot. 
We confess that taking an “outside” view of the matter we 
are at a loss to understand how a soluble phosphate could ac¬ 
cumulate in a region where, if accounts be true, “it never 
rains but it pours.” 
It is worthy of remark, however, in passing, that the highest 
authorities should bo at variance on a question of fact which 
it seems to us there should be no difficulty in determining with 
absolute certainty. 
Wo have thus set before our readers fairly this article of 
Colombian Guano, in its aspect as presented chemically. We 
do not on such a presentation only, however promising, recom¬ 
mend to farmers, an investment in this fertilizer. We have 
some practical results which give us strong hopes that it has 
very high value. 
One farmer who is making several experiments instituted 
last fail, upon wheat, and wtiose judgment we entirely rely 
upon, says that these experiments thus far indicate a decided 
superiority of the Colombian over Peruvian Gnano, upon soil 
where the Peruvian has been used with the usual success. 
We hear of other cases of its apparent success, which leads 
us to anticipate that the best opinions of those who recommend 
it may be realized. And we would say to farmers now, that it 
would be very well worth their while to make trial of it on a 
small scale at once, and carefully. A few hundred pounds are 
sufficient for experiment, and will enable them to determine 
whether it will be likely to pay on the wheat crop in the Fall 
Try it upon oats at the rate of 300 lbs. per acre, and upon 
other crops at a somewhat larger rate.
