Marine *»■ elected hr the C|«r Ceaacil ate their Official Orfaa- Speech of Es-Gov Brown. The demand for tour paper ton jester-, daj was so great, on account of the general anxiety to see the able speech of Ex-Gor. Brown, at the meeting in Atlanta, that we republish it on the out side this morning. Extra copies of the Paces containing it can be had at the coanting room, with or without wrap pers, at five cents a copy. The people are disposed to surrey the situation for themselves, and see if there is any chance to pluck the flower of safety from the thistle of danger, which now threatens ns. There can be no harm in canvassing the propositions so forcibly presented by the Governor. The ques tion is.not now what sort of an adjust ment would satisfy our judgment, and save our pride, bnt what oan we get that will save us from military despo tism and confiscation ; not to what ex tent we shall submit to the invasion oi our State institutions—but whether we shall have any voice in State affairs; not how best to secure the protection of liberty and property, but whether, if we remain passive and silent, we shall have any left worth protecting. These are the questions which are presented to the people of the Sooth, and we cannot magnify the importance of a wise and cautious decision upon them. We cannot counsel inaction or indif lerence for the proposed adjustment, for we are solemnly impressed with the importance of a settlement of the ruin ous agitation which now distracts the conntry. While therefore we present the arguments of Governor Brown, we leave oar readers to do their own think ing, and form their own conclusions. We have published the Military bill, and we again present the views of an eminent Georgian concerning the pro priety of accepting the terms therein offered. Let every citizen canvass the question well, and decide in view of the best interests of himself and posterity. Let Harmony Prevail. The people of the South scarcely yet realize the changes that are engrafted on-our political system by the passage of the Military bill. They had hoped that some good genius would hare soft ened the hearts of those who control the Government, and induced them to pre sent terms of reconstruction less severe than the subversion of ancient laws and usages embraced in. this measure. But it has passed into a law, over the veto of the President, and nothing is left to us, in our present condition, but to obey its provisions as they may be confirmed by the Supreme Court. It is not only our duty to yield such obedience, but our policy to yield it in such a spirit) as, while it shall command the respect and confidence of the Government, shall not invite or provoke the further exercise of a harsh or vindictive policy. It Tag to avert such further opppression that one at least whom the South has trusted and honored, gave his support to the bill; and we are willing to ascribe the same lofty motive s to those who in our own State or elsewhere counsel the ac ceptance of the bill as a condition to reconstruction, and an end to the agita tion and suspense which have so long paralyzed the energies of our people. There may be thoee cast in heroic monld, or bred in the school of martyrs, who find occasion for denunciation in such advice; but it seems to us that the time for hard words, and bitter feelings, and political divisions has passed ; and that the duties and responsibilities of our position demand the moat liberal exercise of a spirit of tolerance and charity. Nothing can be more disas trous to the South—both iu its effect on oar material interests and political pros pects —than division and strife over this issue. It will not only draw off our la bor from the fields to the hustings, and thus add to our distress for bread, but give a semblance of troth to the asser tions of those who accuse us of a spirit of rebellion and costumely. The indi cations are unmistakable that many of our people are not disposed to appease those who coutrol the Government by the voluntary acceptance of terms which are deemed to be harsh, uunecessary, and unconstitutional. If it evident that they prefer to accept the logiu of events, and to trust to that Providence who has sustained them through so many trials, for wisdom and patience to await such de liverance as is in store for them. Re cognizing the majesty of the people, and profoundly impressed with the dan ger and tolly of division and strife in such a crisis, we shall relrain from any attempt to concentrate public opinion on any given policy, at present, hoping that the developments of the future will reveal a clear way through which we may escape from the perils which en viron os, and caeure constitutional lib erty for ourselves and our posterity. XMtlnf lb fWa* County At a meeting of th# tW«n» Thomas coonfy, held to eo« aider the political .UuKion, tha followiq* pK acable and repletions w -Xfored by The people of Thomas county, es se tabled in pnmary meeting to eoaeidsr the political condition of the country, and-the relations they sustain to the Quvctruqisulof the United de sire to give expiqamon to tha following views: We believe now that the amendment proposed by tha 89th Onaress, to be made to the Constitution of the United States, ought to have***** ratified, and that the action of the several Legisla tures in the Sooth rejecting it was un fortunate, and likely to prove a positive injury to us as a people. It is possible Congress would have regarded such action on our part as satisfactory evidence of loyalty, and ac quiesced in it as a final settlement of the vexed question of reconstruction. It is certain they construed its rejec tion as evidence of disloyalty, and have imposed upon us terms much more hu miliating. Sherman's bill not only makes the same requirements of us the proposed amendment did, but in effect destroys our State governments and all their machinery, and substitutes there for a military government for the time being, and deprives the States of juris diction over the suffrage question. Can any state of things be worse than this ? Is there anything in it inviting or desirable ? To fold our arms in inac tion, and say we cannot help ourselves, that we must acquiesce in whatever Congress says or does, and in sullen aileuce grieve over our troubles and misfortunes, is not a manly way to meet the question. Let us be up and doing, let ns study the temper and spirit of Congress, and see if we cannot do something to soften their resentment, to modify their views and give things a pleasant direction. Let us review our own action in the past and see if we have done anything that we ought not to have done, or omitted the performance of any duty on our part. Have we acted well and wisely ? The experience and observation of the last few months bas thrown soma light upon our path. We see now the rejec tion of the proposed Constitutional Amendment has aggravated the evils of our condition ; it is taken as evidence of ' opposition to tne Government, and the temper of the people of the North to wards us is growing worse aud worse every day. Congress is growing more and more radical; the President is powerless to save ns, and our friends inCougress are disheartened. We, as a people, are tired of the suspense and anxiety in which we are. We desire a stable government, a government of laws, to be administered by civil magistrates. Let ns, then, retrace our steps, ratify the Constitutional Amendment, and ask Congress to accept it as a final settle ment of the troubles; and appeal to their sense of justice and magnanimity to relieve our whole people from dis franchisement. We may be asked what “assurance” have you that Congress will accede to the proposition ? We answer that we have none, but that -vbich is to be found in an innate sense of right and justice. Let ns do all we can and ought under the circumstances by which we are surrounded, and leave the consequences to God. “He will make the wrath of man to praise Him, and the remain der of wrath lie will restrain.” There fore, be it Resolved, That his Excellency, Gov ernor Jenkins, he requested to convene the Legislature of Georgia in extra session, at an early day, to the end that they may review their previous action in rejecting the amendment to the Constitution proposed by the 39ih Con gress, and that they may consider the propriety of adopting the same, and proposing it to Congress as a final settlement of the vexed question of re construction. Resolved, That in the event of failure to accomplish the end, proposed in the fir.t resolution, the Legislature, in con nection with the Governor, be requested to take such steps and adopt such meas ures as may be necessary to form a State government at the earliest practical day, and thereby shorten military rule and establish a government ol laws to be administered by civil magistrates. Resolved, That a copy ot this pream ble and resolutions be forwarded to Governor Jenkins, and that he be re quested to confer with the Governors of the several Southern States iu reference thereto; and Resolved, further, That copies of these resolutions be forwarded to Thom asville and Savannah papers for publi cation- Robt. H. Harris, Chairman. Lkbb. Dsklb, Secretary. [communicated.] Public Meeting. Mr. Editor :In deference to the opinion of those whom the writer respects, and iu acknowledgment of the fact that, upon a subject of such trans cendent importance, the people should, in deciding pro or con, be if possible, a unit, the proposition for a county meet ing on Saturday, the Uth inst., is with drawn. In the meantime it is hoped that the subject will be thoroughly can vassed by the citizens of the county, so that all available light may be thereon thrown. Apropos, will not some of our citizens address a letter to Hon. Alex ander H. Stephens, aud ascertain his views upon the vital question now en gaging our thoughts? Mr. Stephens’ opinion would have great weight with the masses, and his great mind would so elticidute the subject as that differences of opiuion would be measurably harmo nized. Citizen. March Bth, 1887. Tcrpsxtine from Petroleum. —A letter from London states that scieutific experiments made there have resulted in extracting turpentine from petroleum. The process is said to be a sate one, and it is added that turpentine obtained by it can be produced at one-third the price that lias been heretofore paid for tbe same article from the Carolina*. —A country editor is an individual who reads newspapers, writes articles on any subject, gets type, reads proof, folds and mails papers, prints jobs, runs errands, saws wood, works in the garden, talks to all who calls, receives blame for a hundred things which are no one's busin.ss but bis own, works from 6 a. m. to 10 p. m., and frequently gets cheated oat ot half of his earnings. the Mercury MofOtt" — This time honored guide lor the aris' tocracy and people of our sister State cloeee a leader, laudatory of Pre*ldeu t Johnson's Vet# Ueeaage, on the Sher man fctll, and recommending i nation, with Aha following paragraph, tiihicli would have beeu in remarkable good taste daring the war, but will now he used as a strong argument by the Radi cals, to prove the insincerity ot* our-toft repeated assertion that we accept, in good faith, the result of the war: “ Standing fast by the great principles for which wa have fought 4. e. the sovereignty of the States and the insti tution of shivery—would be ‘ ‘passive resistance" to Ike loots vs the United States. “Let ns not yield ourselves to such a a policy ; but. standing fast by our country —standing last by the great principles fur which we have fought— standing fast by our vital and dearest interests —do nothing fourther to degrade ourselves; but, relying on the justice of our cause, and ou Him who rules the affairs of nations, seek protection and redress in all the ways the Constitution affords—uninfluenced by fear or ignor ant apprehensions.” Referring to the influence of their fears, and to their ignorance of public questions, seems a favorite plan for preventing the people from taking into immediate consideration the great ques tion of their, material safety- We may be sneered at by our chival ric brethren over the river for even suggesting national questions as being too ranch of the pocket, and too little of that high toned sentiment in which onr people have indulged for many patnfal years that are past, but we can but feel that tha present is a time when our people must look for that which will surest feed the wife and little ones at home, aud save the property and pros perity left then. When we are not in ueed of corn Rnd clothing contributed by our so called enemies, we may indulge in highfalutin articles upon the courage, honor, etc., etc., to be shown by passive resistance to the laws of the United States, and refusal to seenre to ourselves what will fall to others if we neglect it. Is Virginia in ire Union.—The New York Times of the 25th has the following dispatch: Capt. Olnev, of the steamer Washing ton Irving, and his counsel Judge Dean, attended before the Governor this after noon -in the matter of the . requisition from Governor Pierpont, of Virginia. Judge Dean took the ground that Vir ginia was not a State in the Union, and consequently no requisition from any person claiming to be Governor of Vir ginia was entitled to consideration. Gov. Fenton declined to hear argument on this point, but consented to hear argu ment on the merits of the case. Affida vits were read showing that the vessel was not in possession of the Virginia aathorities, but was held at the time of ( the alleged rescue by the United States Marshal. Capt Olney was himself sworn and examined by the Governor and Attorney General. He showed that the vessel was on the high seas when seized, and out of the jurisdiction of Virginia. The Attorney General is to reply to morrow. Judge Dean insisted that there was no crime charged in the requisition papers, and cited Gov. Seward’s decis ion in 1839, in like questions arising with the States of Georgia and Vir giuia. —Secretary Seward has lately insured his lite lor one hundred thousand dol lars. S. ecial Notices.

This article is being prepared by us at our place of business In this City, where we invite Planters and others interested lo cal! and examine our stock, and witness the preparation of tha above named MANURE, it is composed entirely of pure and unadulterated GUANOS (ol whioh 25 per oent of the whole mixture Is warranted to be pore No. 1 Peruvian Guano), and we warrant each and every package of U to contain the exact ingredients and same proportions as the sample analysed by Prof. Shepard, whose analysis and report we annex, as follows: Chiklestoi, 8. C., February 16th, 1867. Motors. Wilcox, Qibbt <fc Cos.: Gehtlexe* : The following is my aaalysis and report npon tkn sample yen have plaoed in myhandr, of Wilecx, Gibbs i Co.’s Manipnlated Gnano i -r Hygrometrie water _ 18.60 Combined water and organic matter rich in ainmoniaoal salts 18.00 Phosphate of lima - 44.50 C rbonate of lime 1.80 Insoluble silieions matter, with considerable traces of per oxide of iron 15.80 Chloride of sodium, sulphates of ammonia, lime, and soda, with loss 1.30 < 100.0# The present sample ehows a very advantageous mixture. It has enongh of Peruvian Guano (nay 25 per cent.) for any soil or crop ; while tha great bulk of the preparation is obviously an unadulterated natural Gnano, rich in organic matter, with considerable already formed Ammonia (and the material for its continued production uc required by the crop), together with 44.50 per cent, of Phosphate of Lime, nearly two per cent, of which is in a soluble state. If kept up to the standard of this sample, there is no hazard in predicting that lands treated with 250 or 300 pounds of it to the acre, will be placed in an effective condition for any crop. Very respectfully, youre, CHARLES UPHAM SHEPARD. Knowing the composition, at well as judging from the analysis and report of Prof. Shepard, we are confident it will prove to be an exeel ent MANURE, and pay any Planter handsomely who uses it judiciously. We would recommend the use of 175 to 200 pounds per acre for Cotton or Corn ; 250 to 300 pounds for Wheat, and that it be applied the same as other Guanos—nnder the bed for Cotton, in the hill for Corn, and broadcast tor Wheat. This Guano is ready for use, all the lumps having been thoroughly ground, and the whole passed through a seive before packing, and it is e very handsome articla in appearance and condition. It is packed in barrels oi about 300 pounds, and bags of 200 pounds, and the prioe will bo uniform, as follows : $65 per Ton of 2,000 pounds, Cash.
