The Convention promises to be harmonious and conservative. T. Letter from New York. Ntw York, Oet. 68, 1865. Grapc-nkla* vs. Khcuinu The only apparent use made of grape skins iu this city heretofore has been to trip up pedestrians who have happened unluck ily to tread upon these treacherous loolknlds. A genius over in Brooklyn (where every body “ runs” a grapevine) has been assidu ously engaged this fall iu gathering them by the aid of little boys and chiflouiers, much to the surprise of many people. He gave notice to school children that he would give them a penny a pound for all the grape skins they would bring him, the consequence being that youngsters hoarded ali they could at home, besides “hooking” grapes from them childless neighbor, and then replenish ing their pockets with pennies by selling the skins. What in the deuce this odd genius, who was a medical man, did with them was’, until within a lew days, a complete mystery, ft is out now, however, aud for the bene fit of suffering llieumatics, I will give it pub licity. He has long hem noted for his cures o iheumatic affectious, and has become quite celebrated, aud one of his recent pa tients exp ams the mode in which he cured him, as follows: He Oho patient) was taken into a large room, into which the sun had free access, to the middle of wluel was i huge heap of grape-skins, which emitted an exhalation similar to that of »i co y „!5 chloroform. Here the patient strip. He obeyed. The doctor “en^mado a great hole in the centre of u,e h£ n u ££ Which he stood the patient, covennclii’in tn his chin with them. He then placed a wet sponge ou the palienfs head, to prevent ver tigo, and kept him there for three hours!— ihe sensation was decidedly pleastmt at first, but soon the heat became more intense than that of a dor.eti vapor baths— the pores of that patients corkus -never were so leely opened before, and the perspi ratKtu flowed from him in perfect torrents during at leust two bouts and tliree quarters Ibe doctor kept the sponge ou the patient’s head thoroughly wet. At the expiration of turge hours he was taken out, put betweeu wurm blankets after u hard rubbing with a flesh brush, when he slept soundly for au hour or mote. On awakening, what was hia surprise to find every rheumatic kink gone—he could have kicked football with the whole of the sophomore class of Harvard l allege aud heat them easily, so limber were bis former stiffened joints. He is an enlhu siaßlist on grape skins ! He patronised all the grape sellers in tow n, and talks of es tablishing a vineyard ! It this isn’t anew tbiug in your locality, it is here. I7cc /„ groftmiuel Pulp. During the past summer there have been going on a set ies of experiments, testing the halt-dozen very feasible appearing new sys tems ol manutacturing “pulp” tor paper.— Owing to the enormous price paid for print paper by nil proprietors of newspapers throughout the country, any system by which this great expcusc could be lessened would be an incalculable benefit not only to newsi>aperdnm, but to the news-reading public, which of course in this country means the whole people. Sometime last spring a plan of making pulp from wood was submitted to Mr. D. H. Craig, the Gen eral agent of the Associated Press, by an inventor who thought the “Associated Piess,” was some big newspaper, which struck Mr. Craig as being liable to be mnde of utility to the press of the country. Upon Corresponding with the leading editors and proprietors Mr. Craig was authorized to go ahead and have the thing tested. While this process was being tested one or two other processes were likewise submitted to Mr. Craig’s attention. Mr. Craig called in to his aid Mr. J. M. Perkins, of the Pittsburg Man ufacturing Company, a gentleman thoroughly posted in ail that appertains to ttie business and one of the best specimens of a thorough ly practical American extant. Three differ ent processes have been thoroughly tested, the Austrian,the Meucci, and the Roth. The latter has proved an unqualified success, so much so that those editors who have backed Mr. Craig in his investigations will soon be enabled to obtain their paper at a cost of certainly twenty if not fifty percent less tban the prices they are now paying. The in ventor, Mr. Roth, of Philadelphia, is a queer specimen of a deformed German, full of scieuce in the matter of chemicals, and, not unlike many really great minds, is given to ceitain oddities and idiotyncraces; but, nevertheless, his patent will opeu anew era. long wished for among the paper fraternity. It ia needless to say that the “Governor,” (as Mr. Craig is generally complimeutarily known to the Press,) feels quite gralided at the success of his investigations into the ‘•pulp” business, ana the press throughout the country are responding, from Maine to Calitomia, from lowa to Louigiaua and Geor gia, in requests to him to hand their orders to Mr. Perkins, the manufacturer, in whom rests the new patent. It must certainly be a new and pleasant sensation to publishers to purchase their paper at from ten to twelve cents a pound. “Spotting" is a term pretty well known to detective police officers, and is getting to be quite a jumilinr word to the public, since the advent of tbe Chief •‘Spotter’’ let loose by the Se cretary of War during tire past lour years. It is not generally received with much favor iu polite circles, and although Spotters are sometimes serviceable, tbe manner in which the business wa a conducted by the War De partment’s hireling made it more thau ever odious. Even the old-time hangmen of Old England could not have excited much more aversion by their presence in intelli gent circles tban has that of the chief detec tive of the Secretary of War in respectable society in this city. It is somewhat singu lar that the regular detectives of the Police torces of this city, Boston, and Philadelphia never seemed to" have shared in the remotest degree the odium attached to that roving, ir responsible crowd who give big suppers at tire Astor House, but on the contrary, are freely admitted to the best society as all gentlemen should be. ■ However odious may have been the War Department spotters, their repug nant visages were as illuminated augels com - pared with the hang-dog countenances visi ble on the deck of nearly every English bound steamer that departs from our shores, intent on watching every poor devil, or rich devil, that may pronounce bis words with the least grain of a brogue. These fellows are Fenian spotters, uml “sorry a hit of comfort" and o they get iu their new vocation on this side of the water, for jno sooner has the steamer sailed and left the “sptoter" to watch the next out-going craft, than he finds another kind of spotter in tbe shake of a vigorous shillelah, making black and while spots all over him. Spotting does not always pay! The Foreign Capitalist* made a visit to the American Telegraph building last Saturday, and were shown about that immense institution by President Sanford. Perhaps nothing, since their visit to this country, has presented a greater con trast to their minds than a comparison of American telegraphing with English and Continental telegraphing. In the old couu* try, it not only requires two men to work one wire, but they know nothing about “receiving by sound.” They have wbat are called indicators which work »lowiy and point deliberately to tbe letters transmitted. In tikis country dispatches are now chiefly received by sound—tbe operator in the send ing office touching off letters by his message, and the operator in the receiving office sittiug at his desk, listens to the ticks and spells tbe words by sound. If the instrument would pronounce the letters —t li e,—this listening and reading would appear easy enough ; but when the instrument makes ouly the sound of a watch-tick for every letter, it does not appear so eusy. Still, it is done, neverthe less, aud one can imagine ttie surprise of our visitors, upon seeing this thing done. This sitting at a desk and writing at the dictation of a person five huudred miles off, without seeing auy words or letters, or even bearing the sound of a hu man voice, must have appeared to these Englishmen as about as remarkable a thing »s they have yet witnessed. They received, too, something of an idea of tbe use made of telegraphing iu tlds country, when they learned the number of wires and instruments that were iu use by this company alone. — They extended their visit to the Associated Press rooms, and received information from D. H. Craig, the General Agent, and his as sociates, of the moans made use of by that institution to obtain its news from all quar ters of the globe, by telegraph, rail, steamer, express, carrier pigeons, and every other possible mode of conveyance. They had explained to them how the telegraphic des patches, from a three-line fire announcement to a twelve-column State paper or speech, are received from the telegraph office, mani folded into twenty or twenty-five copies and distributed simultaneously to the various newspapers belonging to the association.— Here, too, they saw their system, as man uged by Renter, magnified and developed into colossal proportions, and made adequate to meet the demands of our more enterpris ing Press. I have no doubt these gentlemen will long remember their visit to the Amer ican Telegraph, Building. Who wave beicn Insubordinate.— Tlteroi* hardly an instance to be lound throughout the whole war of military insubordination or contempt of tbe civil authorities by an edu cated military officer. Grant, Sherman, Thomas, McClellan, Buell, Lee, Johnson all leading generals North and South have been noted tor their absolute subordination to tbe ruling powers. Ou the other band, those who have shown tbe least regard fu( the restraints of civil authority have been, in every instance, lawyets. Stanton, Holt, Butler, Schenck, Carrington and Wallace, are all lawyers. Each ot these have come out of the war without any military repu tation, and each have been conspicous ior the utter disregard of all legal autf civil re straints.— Round Table. —A Boston militia Company the Lancers, is abont to visit Chicago, berses and all. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26. 1865. THfe EXECUTION OF OIIAMP FURGUSON. The Augusta Constitutionalist oi the 21th, publishes a detailed account of the execu tion of Champ Furguson, the guerilla, at Nashville on the 20tl», from tbe Nashville Times of the 21st. Furguson passed the day preceding his execution with his wife and family and spiritual advisers. He betrayed very little emotion till the last. When the military c unmaudaut visited him at bis cell to inquire if lie had anything further to say, he replied in a firm, full round voice” “I have uolhiug to say,” Ho then asked per mission for his wile to get some tilings ol his “after ail is over,” a request which was granted. He spoke of this matter us if he were only going on a bhort journey to return again soon, or as if ho were asking a favor in reference to some other person. Here he recognized Mr. Rogers, the reporter of the Dispatch, who had done him several acts of kindness during his trial,and invited him in to the cell, where the prisoner made a con fession which he placed exclusively in the hands of the reporter for publication. It is understood that Ferguson acknowledged tbe justness of his sentence, and acknow ledged himself guilty of at least five of the specifications. fukocson’s personal appearance. Furguson is a .powerful framed man, six feet one and a quarter inches high, and weighing about one hundred and sixty pounds. His muscular organization is finally developed and rounded off like a prize fighters. His physical build, with a large tull chest, indicated great strength and en durance of body, with very unusual energy of character. He carried himself quite erect, and he was dressed with scrupulous neat ness, in black cloth frock coat, with vest and pants of tbe same material, and black gloves and new gaiters. This neatness of the prisoner has alwuys been one of his. pecu liarities, and was a noticeable feature of lus character during bis trial. READING THE SENTENCE. Col. Shatter then.proceeded to read to the the prisoner the charges nod .specifications upon which he was tried, and the sentence ot tire court as approved by Gen. Stoneman. This occupied about twenty-three minutes. During the readiug Furguson reemed quite impatient, as if Ire thought the proceeding entirely unnecessary. He looked among the spectators, uodding recognition to a man in his shilt-bleeves, who was surveying the scene from a seat on the top of the peuiten liary. He also nodded composedly to others jn the crowd As lie grew impatient at the reading, bp several times turned on his toes and heels, changer) his position, held bis head up towards the sky, aud then his eye 9 on tbe platform. Ouoe iu u while he podded or shook his bead at the conclusion of the reading of a specification. When the case of Elam Huddleston was mentioned, he said iu a firm voice: “I can tell it better than that/’ yyhep Col. Sbafter read as follows: “to all which the accused pleads not guilty," he replied, “But I don’t now.” At tbe conclusion of the reading of the sentence, Col. Sbafter remarked to the pris oner: “In accordance with this sentence, f am now going to have you executed.” Fur guson bowed his head, and rejoined: “Very well.” Rev. Mr. Bunting then made an ap propriate prayer, at the conclusion of which Furguson bowed profoundly towards the minister, as if intending to thank him, utter ing some inaudible words. HIS REMARKS AND CONDUCT. He wasj then asked if he had anything to say before proceeding with tbe execution.— lie replied i ‘ Nothing to say particularly at all. No, don’t think I have,” flie noose was heie placed aiound bis neck, and tlien, for the first time, he displayed signs of emo tion. His face flushed to a deep scarlet, the perspiration broke forth profusely from his face, and his lips closed with a convulsive quiver. The realization of his awful situa tion seemed to have flashed over his mi mi in ail its fullness, overpowering his fortitude. Colonel Shatter wiped the sweat away, aud tlie prisoner gradually recovered his equani mity He expressed himself much opposed to having anything placed over his eyes when a handkerchief was called for. Then he volunteered the statement : “I don’t know some things in those specifications, but I don’t deny anything I ever done.” For a moment or two he seemed to be repressing an impulse to make fuller remarks. After a brief pause he added, “1 want to be sent to my family ; I don’t want to be buried on this soil.” After another pause he continued, in an excited tone : “Don’t give me to the doc tors ; I don’t waut to be cut up here” : Colo fel Shatter answered : “You shan’t, Mr. urgusoji.” A abort sjlepce followed, when the prisoner again spoke : “1 want to be put in that thing,” pointing to his coffin, "and taken to White county, where 1 can have my family around me. If I had only bad my way, I wouldn’t have been here. Whenever you are ready, lam done. My last request is to be sent away with my wife.” The white cap was then drawn over his face. His last words were :“O Lord ! have mercy oq me, I pray thee ?” THE EXECUTION. As he uttered the last word, at seventeen minutes to twelve o'clock, detective Ban ville, at one Wow of a hatchet, severed the rope tvhich sustained tbe drop, and the body fell some two fbet with a heavy thub*. He died easy, there being no death struggle. Bureau Refugees, Frf.edmen & A. L., j Office Act. Asst. Com. State of Ga , > Augusta, Ga., Oct.*44th, 1865.) Circular) No. 3. ; I.
