Mr. Editor: —Will you please allow a laboring man—another citizen—a place in yoar interesting columns, to say a few words at this time ? Many men, situated like myself, who have only their daily labor to depend npon for support, are greatly disappointed this morning, by reading in your paper the communication of Citizen, with drawing his request for a meeting on Saturday the 9tb. I had looked forward to the assem. bling of that meeting as the dawning of day—as a harbinger of returning sense to our political leaders, that they would allow such a meetirfg to beheld, and even at this late day permit the meu most affected for better or worse, by the chan ges and in political matters now soon to be made, to have a voice in deciding for themselves “what we shall do to be saved.” Persons who have accumulated pro perty for years, and of speculations daring the war, can afford to wait for Provi dence to help U3 out of our troubles, if they are willing to risk being stripped oftbeir property before the much talked of Providential aid is vonchsafed to ns, but the great uncertainty which now hangs over us as a pall, suspending and stopping all kinds of building and busi ness, will soon bring gaunt want to our doors and place our families destitute of food and sbelter? I speak as one who knows, when I say that there is not a machine shop in this City that has made expenses and inter est on property this last year, and, in Heaven’s name, how can we hope for daily wages through this year, if the politicians refuse to surrender to the wishes of Congress ? I should not feel it any greater dis honor to surrender now to Congress, backed by the whole North, than I did in surrendering to Grant backed by his army. To be sure, I only toted a mus ket then, and only swing a hammer now, and may not fully understand the sub ject, but I do know that we fought them four years and then quit, and that we have waited two vear3 to have our own way since, and, now, I, for one, am ready to quit that, for I know Congress and the North can hold out longer than we can. Excuse me, Mr. Editor, from stray ing from my subject. The meeting is the question. It is, of course, now too late to hold the meeting on Saturday, but I do hope it will be done soon, and that the working men, business men, and clerks, of Augusta, ana the plant ers of the county, will get together, and say quietly and plainly to Congress) what nearly every man honestly feels, that we are tired of opposition, that we want peace and harmony ; and if you will not see matters as we do, we will try and see them as you do, and will go to work at once to organize such State Governments as you want ; hunt some old fellows who can take your oath, if you will then let ns Be represented, and cry quits. I see that Gov. Jenkins is going to Washington and wiil tell us what to do. That is all very well. Every body loves the good old honest Governor, but ain’t you afraid the Johnson men who have advised us to refuse better terms than we now have offered to us will shut his eye up? I am. What do you say to having a meeting to-morrow week? Excuse bad writing and the lateness of the hour, for a work bench and candle are hard aids to a scribe. Akothek Citizen, in a Shop. Augusta, Ga., March 8,1867. [communicated.) “ The Impending Epoch.” 'Augusta, Ga., March 8, 1867. Mr. E. H. Fughe: Dear Sir:—ln your notice of The Impending Epoch, you say you quote my words, and, yet, do not quote them, which is unfair. Truth is a jewel. My true words are: “I admit that the contents of this sjngle number is ex parte, in this, that Bky subject is Cotmie, too graad to be even Epitomic, in a thousand num bers of the little Kpoch." The word “epidemic” you use would make non seuse. If you will give your article again, corrected as above, I shall not demur to any view you may choose to take of my effort to reach the raiuds of the four million Spiritualist* of our country. If you publish this note it will suit me equally. Very respectfully, Henry J. Osborne, Editor Epoch. —Melleu, Ward & Cos., who recently failed in Boston for $1,000,000 carried down the First Nationsl Bank of New* tonville, of which one of the firm waa a director. Public Opinion at the Kerth. During the two years of distress and suffering, aad anxiety which have elapsed sinea tka people of tha South laid down tbsir arms and submitted to the governvant and lama of the United States, they have been constantly sua tainsd by the hope that the Radicals in Congress did not truly represent the temper and disposition of their constil* cents; that the people of the North were lees violent and vindictive than their leaders, and that tha generosity, good sense, and good will of the masses would be a certain and effectual protection against the calamities with which Con gress threatened ns. This was a natural and reasonable hope. It was strength ened and kept alive by the Democratic press of the North and by the exponents of opposition to the Radical party, and it was still further fortified by the belief that, as the Constitution and the laws forbade the measures of punishment and coercion which the Congressional ma jorities sought to enforce, the people would refuse to tear down and destroy the defences of their own liberty, even though they might be willing to consent to the destruction of ours. Experience has proved that this hope has been delusive ; that we have been leaning on a broken reed, and that in stead of the representatives being in advance of the people, the reverse is the fart. Stevens and Boutwell, Schenk and Trumbull have faithfully represent ed the sentiment, wishes, and aims of their people. Those who have induced us to believe otherwise have deceived themselves and us. This is a terrible fact, and the sooner we accept it, and meet it squarely, the better. It is folly to talk of the Radical party as a minori ty of the Northern people. It is ruinous folly for us to suppose that it is losing strength. It is stronger to-day than it was when Lee surrendered, and its increase of strength has given increased tenacity to its purpose, increased bitter ness to its animosity towards us, and increased obstinacy to its determination to compel us to yield to its fierce and passionate will. It is only necessary to study the action of Congress, and of the State Legislatures, the action of the people in their choice of representatives, aud the expression of popular feeling through the columns of the leading newspapers, to be convinced, beyond a doubt, that the people are the Radical party, and that Stevens is the obedient instrument of their will. It is doubtless true that this growing animosity and thirst for vengeance have been excited to their present degree of rage by the persistent misrepresenta tion of our temper, conduct, and de signs, on the part of Southern traitors and Northern hirelings, whose business it has been made to slander ns. For two years these two flocks of buzzards— the one lured by the promise of the carrion of office, and the other secured by its possession—have worked with unremitting energy and unsurpassed ingenuity, to produce the impression at the North that, though we have been overcome in battle, our hearts have not been subdued ; that, though we have surrendered our arms, we still hold to the determination to overthrow the Government; that we are gu Ity of the most revolting and cruel atrocities to ward the negroes ; that no Southern man who opposed the war can live among us aud pursue his calling with out danger of personal injury, insult, and oppression, and that no Northern man can either settle in or travel through the country, without exposure to violence, contumely, or outrage the moment he quits the precincts of the Federal camps. Every renegade South erner, eager to earn the wages of his treachery ; every Northern trader, dis appointed in his expectations of a rich harvest, and disgusted at the barren ness he has found where he expected to find abundance ; every petty office holder, every “agent” of the legion which now swarm in every corner of the country; and every hired letter writer whose wages depend on the fertility of his defamation and the plausibility of his falsehood—has con tributed to swell the torrent of misrepre sentation and calumny, by which all generosity, forbearance, kindness of heart, and good will, have been oblite rated amoug the masses of the North so far as we are concerned, and the bitter hate and desire to punish and degrade us, engendered, which are finding their expression in the acts of Congress “for the better government of the Rebel States.” Stevens and Boutwell and Schenk and Trumbull know that all these little contributions to the gigantic lie of which we are the helpless victims, are iufamous fabrications, but the people do not know it. On the contrary, they believe every word of it, and are con vinced that they would tail in their duty were they not to urge our punishment and suppress our barbarous practices. VVlmtever we may do, or fail to do, and whatever we may say, or omit to say, in the crisis which is now upon us, we will do well to bear in mind that public opinion at the North approves the Congress which has just expired, and will approve its more advanced and progressive successor, and that so far as our present troubles are concerned, to look for a “revulsion of feeling at the North” is like waiting for the sky to fall to catch larks. Xylon. Nrw British Ministry.—The fol lowing changes have been made in the British Cabinet: The Duke of Richmond becomea Colonial Secretary, Sir John Pakington, Secretary of War. Sir Stafford Northcote, First Lord of the Admiralty. ; Right Honorable H. J. Carry, Under Secretary of the Colonies, and M. Ste phen Cave, President of the Board of jrade. Ths Supreme Court. One of oar ablest and most esteemed osfsweocenes, whose ewcere pslmliie ao distance of opinion will pormil as to question, insists with great farce and psbpristr upon a speedy resort to the supremo Court for relief from the nail* lary bill, and denounces with merited severity that class of men who are so anxious to accept the conditions of the Sherman act that they do not wish an appeal to the supreme legal tribunal cf the Republic. The people of the South owe it to their houor, dignity, and self respect to resort to any mid every meat s to either defeat or protect themselvts from the provisions of an act which its friends admit to be grossly unconstitu tional. But the great danger to be appre hended, and against which we cannot too frequently and earnestly admonish our people, is not to wait idly aud su pinely the action of a tribunal which cannot protect us from the immediate danger of the State being wrested from the hands of the white race by negroes and demoralized whites. We wish no feeling of natural iudiznatiou, no horror of an unavoidable evil, no hope of dis tant relief, to prevent immediate, ear nest, aud energetic preparation for maintaining onr supremacy at the bal lot box. We have the brains, the num bers, the experience, and ability to bold our own if we do not lose every advan tage of position by indifference, disgust, supineness, aud apathy. These, Oh ! men of Virginia, are the vices and dan gers to be averted t In mutters which effect the fate of your wives and child ren, wait not for a distant and uncertain relief, but act promptly and earnestly. The peril ot our situation demands great fertility of strategy and resource, and he who expects to win the day by resort to the courts alone, will be surely defeated. We are to day denied all the rights, liberties, aud privileges which the Supreme Court has just declared can not be wrested from us in time of peace. Our Constitution and laws have been swept away by an act of Congress, and yet the Milligan case is not two months old. Wlat a sal comme • tary upon the powerlessness ot the Su preme Conrt is onr present situation. Two terrible dangers, black with peril, are bearing down upon us with fearful rapidity, neither of which can the Su preme Court avert. We mean statutory negro suffrage, and the call of a Con vention by those who propose a hundred measures of outrage and proscription. Let the learning of our ablest jurists be called into immediate play, to secure all the protection which the Supreme Court may afford at.sonic distant day, but let no man trust to that source exclusively for relief and protection. Let it be borne in mind that onr ene mies deride our hope for protection from the Supreme Court, aud exult that the only effect of a decision against the con stitutionality of the Sherman act, will be “to throw the South into the thrice heated furnace of the Fortieth Congress.” We must adopt some means by which, for want of fuel to feed upon, the baleful fires of popular passion at the North will expire. As long as they rage with their present consuming fury, the con tempt with which Congress has treated the late decision against ‘ military gov. eminent” in time of peace, is the best evidence of how little the mob care for the Supreme Court. We find that the New York World, a leading organ of the Northern Democracy, earnestly ad monishes the South not to depend ex clusively upon the Supreme Court for protection, but to act without an instant’s delay.— ltichmund, Va., Times, 6 th. Local Elections in Maine.—Elec tions were held in Portland, Gardiner, Bath, and Lewiston, M.iine, on Monday, all of which went by strong majorities h r the Republican tickets. The vote in Portland shows an increase over the Republican majority last year of two hundred votes, although the total vote east was five hundred less. In Gardiner the Republican candidate tor Mayor was elected by a unanimous vote. S. ecial Notices.

This article is being prepared by us at our place of business in this City, where we invite Planters and other, interested to call and examine our stock, end witness the preparation of the above named MANURE. It if composed entirely of pore and unadulterated GUANOS lot which 25 per cent of the whole mixture is warranted to bo pare No. 1 Peruvian Guano), and we warrant each and every package of It to contain the exact ingredients and same proportions as the (ample analysed by Prof. Shepard, whose analysis and report we annex, as follows : Charleston, 8. C, February 16th, 1867. Mestrt. Wilcox, Oihbt A Cos.: Gentlemen ; The following is my analysis and report npon the sample yoa have placed in my hands, of Wilcox, Gibbs A Co.’s Manipulated Gnano; Hygrometrie water 18.60 Combined water and organic matter rich in ammoniaeai salts 18.00 Phosphate of lime 44.50 C rbonate of lime 1.80 Insoluble silicions matter, with considerable traces of per oxide of iron 15.80 Chloride of sodium, sulphates of ammonia, lime, and soda, with loss 1.30 100.00 The present sample shows a very advantageous mixture. It has enough of Peruvian Gnano (say 25 per cent.) for any soil or crop ; while the great bnlk of the preparation is obrionsly an unadulterated natural Gnano, rich in organic matter, with considerable already formed Ammonia (and the material for its continued production as required by the crop), together with 44.50 per eent. 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 hasard in predicting that lands treated with 250 or 300 pounds of it to the acre, will he placed in an affective condition for any crop. Very respectfully, yours, CHARLES UPHAM SHEPARD. Knowing the composition, as weU as judging from the analysis and report of Prof. Shepard, we araconfident it will prove to be an excellent MANURE, and pay any Planter handsomely who uses it judiciously. We would recommend the nse 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 nse, all the lumps having been thoroughly ground, and the whole passed through a seive before packing, and it is s very handsome article in appearance and condition. It is packed in barrels of about 300 pounds, and bags of 200 pounds, and the price will be uniform, as foUowa : $65 per Ton of 2,000 pounds, Cash. Our Agents will sell at the same price, with necessary expenses added. We are now prepared to deliver this Gnano in quantities to suit, and solicit orders for the same, which will be promptly filled. We will alao keep, both here and in Savannah, a good supply of Pnre No. I PERUVIAN GUANO, which will be sold at the market price; also, Pure No. 1 PHCENIX GUANO, at $55 per Ton of 2,000 pounds, in Savannah, or S6O here—Cash.
