AGRICULTURAL
CHEMICAL COMPANY'S
Cheap Fertilizers.
TIIE FERTILIZERS prepared by the Ag
ricultural Chemical Company, [ a com
pany chartered by the legislature of Pennsyl
vania with a capital of $250,000,3 have been
proved in practice to be the cheapest, most
profitable and best, for the Farmer, Gardener
and Fruit Grower, of all concentrated ma
nures now offered in any market. The Com
pany's list embraces the following
PABULETTE. This Fertilizer is composed
of night soil and the fertilizing elements of
urine combined, chemically and mechanically
with other valuable fertilizing agents and ab
sorbents.
It is reduced to a pulverized condition, rea
dy for immediate use, and without loss of its
highly nitrogenous fertilizing properties.
Its universal application to all crops and
Boils, and its durability and active qualities,
are well known to be all that agriculturists
can disire.
CHEMICAL COMPOST. This Fertilizer
is largely composed of animal matter,
such as meat, bone, fish, leather, hair and
wool, together with chemicals and inorganic
fertilizers, which decompose the mass, and re
tain the nitrogenous elements.
It is a very valuable fertilizer for field crops
generally, and especially for potatoes and
garden purposes.
Its excellent qualities, strength and cheap
ness, have made it very popular with all who
have used it.
acOMPOSITE FERTILIZER. This high
ly phosphatic fertilizer, is particulurly
apted for the cultivation of Trees, Fruits,
Lawns and Flowers. It will promote a
very vigorous and healthy growth of wood and
fruit, and largely increase the quantity and
perfect the maturity of the fruit. For hot
house and household plants and flowers, it
will be found an indispensable article to se
cure their greatest perfection.. It will prevent
and cure diseased conditions of the peach and
grape, and is excellent for grass and lawns.
It is composed of such elements as make it
adapted to the growth of all kinds of crops in
all kinds of soils.
The formula or method of combining its
constituent fertilizing ingredients have re
ceived the highest approval of eminent chem
ists and scientific agriculturists.
PHOSPHATE OF LIME:. The Agricultu
ralJE Chemical Company manufacture a
Phosphate of Lime in accordance with a new
and valuable formula, by which a very supe
lior article is produced, so far as to be afforded
at a less price than othermanufacturers charge.
Practical tests have proved that its value, as a
fertilizer, is equal' to the best Phosphate of
Lime in the market.
PCP' TERMS CASH.—AII milers of a Ton, or
more, will be delivered at the railroad stations
and the wharves of shipment, free of cartage.
Cartage will be charged on all orders of six
barrels or less. One Dollar per Ton allow

HISTORY OF THE
GREAT REBELLION!
THE late rebellion stands out peculiar and
extraordinary in human events; and the
magnificent scale upon which the war has
Dees conducted, constitute it one of the grand
est and most brilliant chapters of the world's
history.
Mr. Headley, of all writers, is perhaps best
qualified to portray the the stupendous feat
ures of the mighty contest. His previous
works on less momentous themes have placed
him in the first position, as a graphic and pow
erful deleniator of war scenes and characters,
and the magnitude and grandeur of lhe pres
ent subject, impart to his pen the fire and vi
gor of a yet more exacted inspiration, and fur
nish ample scope for the highest exhibition of
his peculiar genius for military description.
Under his powerful pen the stirring scenes of
the War pass in review with the vividness and
distinctness of a present and living reality ;
while his great talent for conden.ation ena
bles him to embody everything of importance
in a compass just suited to the public want.
From no other source can so clear and com
prehensive an impression of the grand march
of events be obtained, so easily and agreeably
as from Mr. Headley's work.
Other histories have been issued before
Grant's Report and other official documents
were submitted to the government, and there
fore unreliable. Mr. Headley has delayed the
completion of this till those documents so es
sential to authenticity and correctness could
be obtained.
The second volume, completing this work,
is now (June 30th, , 661 ready. Agents wan
ted to engage in its sale in every town and
connly in the United States. Liberal induce
ments offered. For particulars apply to or ad

LADIES TAKE PARTICULAR
NOTICE
THE REAL VALPAU FEMALE PILLS
[ WARRANTED FRENCH. ]
These Pills, so celebrated many years ago
in Paris, for the relief of female irregularities,
and afterwards so notorious for their criminal
employment in the practice of abortion, are
now offered for sale for the first time in Amer
ica. They have been kept in comparative ob
scurity from the fact that the originator, Dr.
VALPAU, is a Phvsician in Paris, of great
wealth and strict conscientious principles, and
has withheld them from general use, lest they
should be employed for unlawful purposes.
In overcoming female obstructions they seem
to be truly omnipitent, bursting open the flood
gates from whatever cause may have stopped
them ; but they are offered to the public only
for legitimate uses, and all agents are forbid
den to sell them when it is understood that
the object is unlawful.

PROSPECTUS OF
Die lUobirvfort iieelcl j Olpoqicle.
N view of the coming elections, new and
I
extensive arrangements have been made to
give even greater variety and interest to
The Washington 'Weekly Chronicle.
The necessity of maintaining the fruits of
our great victory, and of strengthening those
eternal principles upon which alone republi
can liberty car_ safely rest, will give extraor
dinary vitality to approaching poliiical con
tests. Stationed here at the National Capital,
the CHRONICLE possesses peculiar advan
tages to aid the common cause. Having been
conducted almost within the sound of the
rebel cannon during all the war, and therefore
fully understanding the intrigues and projects
of the traitors, it will not fear to speak out
boldly in response to and in reflection of the
sentiments of the free millions of America,
and will defend them and their interests
against all opposition, come from what quar
ter it may, Since the meeting of the present
Congress of the United States, and the enun
ciation of that thorough policy which has com
manded the admiration and gratitude of the
people, the CHRONICLE has maintained its
position "solitary and alone." Traduced and
misrepresented as these majorities have been,
the Chronicle as their sincere and fearless de
fender, has been assailed with equal virulence
and injustice. But it has been honored with
the approval of the loyal people in all parts of
the country. For the first time in the history
of the Government, a prosperous weekly news
paper, opposed to human slavery, fully com
mitted to the policy and doctrines at the radi
cal men of the Republic, has been firmly es
tablished in the District of Columbia. We are
on the threshold of events not less important
than those which astounded the civilized
world and shook the Republic to its founda
tion. These will demand extraordinary ener
gy and fidelity on the part of the public lead ,
ers, whether in Congress or the press.
The WEEKLY CHRONICLE is beautifully
printed in quarto form. During the session of
the present Congress, which promises to be a
