Gents—I am well pleasod with the result of
the uso 01 the ‘Double Refined Poudrette,’ on my
crops. I tried It. on both corn and cotton, a(id
am satisfied wherever it was applied the yield
was more than double than it would haye been
without. 1 regret exceedingly my not using it
moro try extensively the presont year, but will
to make up my loss by purchasing a larger
quantity next reliable, spring. aud I regard it as the cheap¬
est, izer most easiest managed fertil¬
within my knowledge, and cheerfully re¬
commend it (as 1 have tiled It thoroughly) to
the farmers of this section, and particularly to
those planting Cotton, from the tact ol Its
causing it to mature from ten days to two
weeks earlier than it would without tlie uso of
tho Poudrette. I also used it or my garden,
and found It of much bonefit to all hinds or
plants. Very respectfully, &e.,

Sir—-In reply to your inquiry of tho results
of our experience In the use of your improved
Poudrette, purchased of you for this f year’s
GOl'ToN 4JRuP, we would bog leave a say
that tho present season has been one quite un¬
favorable to the action of all fertilizers..
Several kinds of manures were used by vs, with
the exception of your Baud r title, with little or no
eJlec.L lu the crop.
Where tbe Ihnidiette was used it
Rave us near half a bale more per
acre, aud caused the Lotion So opmi
iimch cariier, and we would therefore fe
commend tho same as a concentrated manure
for tho growth ol Cotton, ms well ms Improve¬
ment to the soil.
Yours very respcuUuIly,
HENRY p; STU LTZ k IJEO.

From the mass of official correspon
^ence Porter, concerning lecenUy communicated the case of Fitz to John Con
,
J 'g 1 - e g S) wo select a letter written Franklin. to Gen.
Grant by Gen. Wm. B It
speaks for itself, and in very plain En¬
glish, regarding the character of the
gentleman who now lords it over the
oppressed inhabitants of Georgia, Ala¬
bama and Florida. We need not tell
our readers who Gen. Thomas, Gen.
j Franklin, and Gen. Reynolds are, they
j add that the how- uniform a man of can United continue States to
wear a
jofficer with such imputations from standing leading
j on record against him
|officers of the army' is rather incompre
jhensible to men who respect their hon¬
j or and arc willing to defend it:
j Hartford, Conn., Sept. 31, 18G7.
1 My Dear Grant :—Fitz John Porter
' writes me to ask that 1 will do some
, ^ vu youtUcrulsous wlly
I think it will be an act of justice to
I give him the opportunity to clear him
from the terrible imputftion now
| resting upon him.
1 sa ' v p OTtor m Pope s compan.y the
. * 1 ‘ er tbe llUel ' at Bul1 Bu n ’
aitenvards until arrived .
wo in
f,ont of Washington I know they
were on very cordial terms,and that
Pope on some occasions advised with
lum conlimiutially. I talked I a think good
deal myself with Pope, and
that, if he had had at that time any feel¬
ings that Porter had acted badly, 1
would have learned it then ; hut I had
no suspicious that he felt aggrieved by
anything that Porter or any one who
was near him had done. At Fairfax
Court House the day that wc arrived at
Washington, I noticed that Pope was
particularly in good spirits and cordial
with Porter. I have therefore always
thought that the attack upon Porter was
the result of an afterthought, and that
the charges were not, original with
Pope. I
During the trial thought it proper
to inform Porter that Generals J. F.
Reynolds. George II. Thomas, and my¬
self, would , if requested , go before the
court and swear that vie would not be¬
lieve Pope, or Roberts under oath. 1 had
consulted Gen. Reynolds before I made
the proposition. lie consented to go
himselt, and thought General Thomas
would have no hesitation in giving such
evidence. I was myself well convinced
of General Thomas’ opinion of Pope’s
veracity from what I had often heard
him say before the war. Porter declin¬
ed to call us up to give this evidence,
ou the ground that the court appeared
so well, that ho did not wish to irritate
tlie court tiy an attempt to break down
the evidence of tbe principal prosecu¬ made
tors. The sequel showed that he
a serious mistake.
But I think that the most equitable
reason for a review of Porter’s case is
this: Tho Judge Advocate General,
llolt, was tho judge advocate of the
court. That was right enough. But no
one will deny that a judge advocate of
|delended a military court, when a prisoner is
by able couusul, becomes to a
, , , bUsSd aud as such
/ .gainst b the prison
er To g y Um , Gen>;1 al Hol t was prej¬
udiced against Porter, is merely to say
that he is like other men, and that he
was so prejudiced the whole proceeding
j j shows. for the course Whether of justice it is better that the or worse judge
jing advocate should he question, prejudiced has noih
todo with the
! But an abstract of the proceedings
land finding and sentence of. the court
had to be made by the Judge Advocate
.General for presentation to the Presi
jdpnt (lor lie of necessarily the United could States, nut upon read which the
;
evidence) he was to make up his mind
I as to the guilt or innocence of the at:
cuscd. Was it right, proper, or dec lit,
; that this abstract should he made up by
j the very man who had done his best to
| convict the prisoner ? Did not. such a
j proceeding prevent the President from
j learning any extenuating circumstance,
j ‘or finding out anything weak in I he
evidence, if any such there w'ere I Did
jit jfroni uot, Porter in fact, which take he away might any have chalice had,
{had a cool, unbiased person, of legal
knowledge, made this abstract instead
of General Holt ?
The whole business seems to me like
a prosecuting attorney passing sentence
upon a prisoner in a civil court, imme
diately after the speeches of counsel. 1.
think the fact that Mr. Lincoln lias only
Gen. Holt’s abstract to guide him in
making up an opinion on the proeeed
iugs ot that court is enough to invali
date the whole thing,
It has been said, and perhaps with
truth, that there is no precedent to
guide iu this matter. It may be said
with equal truth, that never since the
trial of Admiral Byng was injustice so
without precedent done. I think that
there never was a more appropriate precedent,
j opportunity forgoing beyond
'how und establishing the fact that no matter
or by whom flagrant injustice is
done, yon, when the power is in your
hands, will see the right done,
For my part, I know that Porter was
jdead, as loyal as the most loyal soldier now
and that no thought of treason or
j disaffection victim entered Pope’s failure his brain. in Virginia, lie was
to
j and it seems to me lie has remained a
; victim long enough. You will, iu my
! opinion, do an act which will uot be
j the least among those which will make
j i up your fame if y ou wifi lend your
weight towards giving Porter the op
portunity to retrieve his character as a
citi?en and soldier,
I am truly " your friend,
W, B. Franklin.

Army of the United States.
