Impeachment- The whirl of events at Washington toward the vortex of anarchy, or the terrific despotism ot an infuriated popu lar majority, appears to be unmistakable. The recent discussion in the House on the motion of Mr. Ashley to instruct the Judiciary Committee to proceed with the investigation authorized by the resolution ot Jan. 7, reveals a disregard not only of the respect due to the Executive officer ot the Government, but a deplorable want of dignity and good breeding. The following extract from Mr. Ashley's opening tirade, is a fair sample of the animus of the so' called “investigation Sir, inch a man as Mr. Johnson. coming into tbe Fresiaenvv as he cause into it, a man at his mental and moral culture—l say nothing of the dark suspicion that crept over the minds of men as to his complicity is tha assassination of Mr. Lincoln, nor of the faot, which I cannot banish from my saind, of the mysterious connection between hi* death and the treachery of his successor —1 say that such a man, in view of all that has happened, coming into the Presidency as he came into it, should hare walked with unco re red bead, and vary humbly, in the presence of the loyal men of the umt-on, and of their Representatives in the American Congress. JLf this nation does not brand with the broad Seal of its condemnation the usurpations, and crimes, and misdemeanors of Ibis man, it will be but an invitation in the iuture tor a repetition ot his usurpations and of his demeanor. Celt protection, and a desire to preserve the honor of the nation, demand that the Representatives of the people shall declare, iu a manner not to be misunderstood, that no man hereafter sleeted President or Vice President, shall present himself at his inauguration, drunk, or shall he turn the White House into a deu of thieves and pardon brokers, nor shall he be permitted with impunity to usurp the pre rogatives of Congress, and to assail this body with indeeeul language all over the country. Mr. Ashley was interrupted by the Speak?r, as exceeding the license ot de bate, and, as he sat down, a member from Pennsylvania pertinently inquired if there was a lunatic asylum near! He was denounced by his colleague, Mr. Spaulding, as guilty of consummate folly in arraigning the President as he had done, and declared that the whole movement was an unmistakable purpose to get rid of the Presideut, because he was in the way of what his enemies call “progress.'' lien. Butler accepted the purpose nsrigned by Mr. Spaulding, and. af:er contending that a majority of Congress, as at present organized, had the clear right to act, he insisted that it was of very little consequence whether or no: secret crimes were charged against the President, “for.” said he “if any man stands in the wav of the great march o! this couutrv to honor, to glory, to peace, to unity, to happiness, to lib erty, and to law, he must be taken out of toe way by a constitutional method.” Messrs. Brooks. Fernando Wood, Chandler, and Pram, all from New York, denounced the proposed im. peaehmer.t in the severest terms, and asked why members had not made these discoveries of immoralitv and usurpation on the pin of the Presi dent before. Mr. Chandler declared tha: the stock jobbers of Wall street would not give Mr. Ashley ; > nmch i! a leather medal for his proceedings. The rescMttioa toairtrctiog the Judiciarr Committee to continue the investigation was adopted without a division. The tending Xew York pipers con demn the renewal of the impeachment agitation. The Tunes says that im- i peathmect was intended to be the rem- ‘ edy for great evils—the penalty for great crimes—and if it mvy be used as a weapon of party warfare, it will be long to as! parties alike, and vkih we may use it today, another may use it to-morrow, and thus force will be sal atitatod iar the constitutional mode of administering the government. Bat what cares Congress for constitutional sentries or the usages of Use lathers of the goven-.ateut, when such nntMjaated eonsidenuisas stand in the wav o! the •access of their party police ? Public Meeting at Dalton. The Cherokee Georgian contains the , proceeding* of a meeting iu Dalton, called to take action on the restoration ‘ ot the State to represcauthm ia Ota. gross. Col. 11 m. K. Moore was called ' to the Chair, and F. M. Langley. Esq, acted as Secretary. Judge L>. A. ; Walker, of the Supreme Court, addressed the moriaag, advocating aa immediate 1 reaqeaios lo all the requirements of the bill knowa as the Sherman Amend, j mem. that has just passed Congress for the m-onatrncoon of the Southern Slates, and moved the appointment of \ a comuiui.ee of seven to draw ap tastier . lor the aguoa of the meeting. This mouou mas carried, and the chairman appointed the following committee : Uoa. D. A. Walker, Chairman; .Col.i J. A. W. Johnson, Samuel H. Baker,, Esq, N. V. Cooled ga, T ANARUS( U. Pitner,! Joseph Guthrie, and CoL C. E. Broyles, j The committee repotted ixmoitiuvna I expressive of a desire for past* and harmony; a determination to discharge every duty of loyal ciiixcns, and ac cepting the Sherman bill ae a condition of restoration. The Governor was re quested to convene the Legislature without delay. Col. J. W. Aeeryoffeiedns asebstitute, resolutions which expressed no opinion on the Sherman hill, but simply request «and the Governor to call a convention, or if he did not foe) authorised to do that, that he call the Legislature together, to consult fur the beet ißtereets of the State in the present crisis. This sub stitute was voted dowu, and the report of the committee was adopted. The meeting, owing to the rain, was not large, but embraced a respectable num ber of the best citizens of the vicinity. [eoXMtmCATSD.] Got. Brown and His Opponents. Mr. Editor: I am glsd to see that in the controversy which has ariseu in re gard to Gov. Brown’s proposition to ac quiesce in the requirements of the Sherman bill, you appear williug that both sides of the question shall be dis cussed iu your columns, I, therefore, ask the insertion of what follows, desiring to premise that its publication by you shall not be considered as committing you, pro or eon, on tho question in volved, though, to be candid with you, Mr. Editor, the time for non-committal has passed for every man who loves his country. Gov. Brown’s letter has aroused a storm ot indiguaticti otvthe part of the press, and a portion ol the people, which appears uncalled for. His proposition is, simply, that we submit ourselves to a fate that we cannot avoid, and obey the law making power of the country. No arguments have been advanced, so far as 1 have seen, why we should not ac cede to this proposition ; on the contrary, the course adopted by his opponents indicates that they have no arguments. He is assailed with personal abuse, and his motives arc impeached. Now, I have never been ail admirer of Gov. Brown, and never voted for him, but 1 do not think him incapable of eivinj sound advice, especially on this subject, upon which be is, perhaps, better posti-d than any man in the State. As to his motives, I care nothing for them. The question is. is his advice good? It may be dictated by self interest; he may wish to save bis property from confisca tion, it so, so much the better for us. he is the more likely to be sincere in his anticipations of the dangers ahead. It may do for those who have nothing to lose to shut their eyes to the danger, and deride the voice of warning, but those who are in the same boat with Got, Brown, and have property at stake, had better heed his counsels—self in terest. in this case, only makes him the safer adviser. It is useless to disguise the dangers with which we are threateued. The masses ot the North are daily becoming more and more radical, and the most extreme men are but little in advance of the masses. They offered us the Ameudtr.ent, which our Legislature fool ishly rejected for weak and unsound reasons assigned, though for a powerful reason in reaiitv, to-wit, that it forbade them from holding office. We might have avoided negro suffrage by nccept- I ing it—noue but the ultra Radicals in j Congress desired to force negro suffrage ! U]>on us, now the whole party in Cou ! gross have aligned themselves with the ultras, since we have rejected the Amendment, and we have not ouiy to accept that, but negro suffrage and mil itary rule besides. If we reject the terms now offered, what next? Nothing but confiscation and total disfranchise ment of the whites. If one turn of the rack will not make the sufferer succumb, another or another will. There are thousands upon thousands of peop e at the i North hungering for the fair fields ot the ) Sooth to be parcelled out among them. | They have been taught by Democratic precept that “to the victors belong the i spoils," and if we persist much longer J in our contumacy, sooner or later they i will force their representatives up to the I point ot bestowing oa them the coafisca ! ied property of Southern rebels. And why *re we compelled to encoun ter these accumulated evils, «ud on ; whose account shall we risk utter ruin? . We are told that we are called upon to i sacrifice our best and most eminent ■ men, and by sO erifice is meant that they are to be precluded from office I for a time ! Well, do we owe them so ; much gratitude? Have they done such mt ritorious service th-.t we* should sac -1 rsfice ourselves and the heritage of our ! children and the prosperity of ©nr * cc-natry. that thev should "eniov the . sweets of office? The gratitude and the j sacrifice is due from theta to us, who made them eminent—not from us to j them. Do we owe them gratitude for ! plunging us into an unneeessarv and : disastrous war ignorantly or knowi -gir —if iguoraut'r. they have too Kttle fore sight arid sagacity to advise and guide a people—if knowingly, and if they knew tfcevwere deceiving us when thev told us that secession would net resit?! in war. ought they to be trusted as a::-. ? Do we owe them gratitude tor project: ting that war after they kr.ew the cause was desperate—for refusing to make peace, when it corf 1 have been done wiih honor, when by doing so thousands of lives would have been saved, our slave property would have fceeu kept or paid lor, nrs-i ocr State spared from de vastation ? Do we owe them gratitude lor prompting the rejection of ife late , terms of .-ettlement and thus bringing upon negro suffrage and tuiutarr ru’e? But we are told by the flunkies and £ .Hirers ot these “eminent mew” that doaor forbade the acceptance of th.-se terms. Truly their ideas of honor ; are something like Faisus*s—“honor: prt.is them on” when they are required I to consent to the emanc:patios of other people** slave*, ©c the repudiation of the public debt, but “ honor pricks them i •>3" again " when the spoils of office are ! in danger. “ Cparta has manv worthier sess than they.” and the people are get ting fired ©f making sacrifices, and of this siaag abort eminent men. The pop- 1 a .ar current is rising aud emmeui men , must go with it. bland aside, or be over whelmed. A vagae hope is held out that j from some quarter, or some how. rescue j wilt come from the ruts uuavotdahie it the terms now offered are rejected, and we are advised to lie still, do nothing. »:i4 wait for the tnauifeslaiious of Prov- ( tder.ee. Like Esop's wagoner, it is ex- j peeled that merely callin' oa Hercules ' to get our wagon Out Ot' the mud, wi<] | do it without putting out own shoulders to tile wheel. S .ire look wits confidence ; u> the bupteme Court, some to the Pres- j iJcut, s.-iuc to the Democratic party at ; She North, some to a change in the sen- ; Luteal of the Northern people. As to’ the >ui reare Court, iu decisions are as j uncertain under present circumstances, J as ohog* Dooly aaid was the verdict of a petty jury, since Congress has the power to remodel it, aud wiil not permit | it to stand in the way. The President ia powerlesa, honest as his intention* may he, against the Radical majority of Congress. The Democratic party was afflicted with-the “dry rot” many tears ago, according to Mr. Stephens, aud has dwindled away under the influence of the malady, until it ha* become con temptible "for want of talent, powerless for good or evil, and so insignificant in members, that to call it not a partv, but a faction would be conferring dignity opon it. What can be expected of a party whose only victories are in some petty State, and whose only evidence of vitality is some such telegram as this, heralded all over tha country us some thing tremendous, and for which you hare to pay, Mr. Editor: “ FROM TKOT. “ Troy, N. V., March 6. “The Democrats hnvo carried the charter election here.” As to the hopes of any abatement of the hostility of the Northern masse* and safety from that source, let the elections for the present Congress answer, and let it be remembered that added to that, hostility, is the hope of sharing in the confiscation of Southern property. There is no Hercules to render us effective aid, we must get our own wagon out of the mud, and we had best set about it without delay, having first unloaded it of the crowd ot “eminent tneu’’ which makes the task more diffi cult, and who ought to be foremost to pul their shoulder to the wheel. A CoCXTKYJIAX. [COMMUXICATKD.J Episcopal Methodist Church Messrs. Ed Hors: As it is a matter ot interest to Methodists generally, permit us to say that the action of the Balti more Conference on the question of laT representation and change of the name of the M. E. Church, South, has been received, and we are gratified to learn that the name of the Church has been changed from Methodist Episcopal Church South to Episcopal Methodist Church, and, also, lav representation adopted by a unanimous vote —lO4 yeas, nays none. Thus the Church no longer bears a sectional name, and lay repre sentation will ensure the unity of Methodism South. C. W. Kby, G. H. Paiillo, A. Wright. Augusta. March 12, 1867. [CUMMCKICATED.] Voting. Mr. Editor :—Permit me to suggest that you cannot in any way better subserve the public good than by urging upon every citizen the importance of voting at our approaching municipal election. The law requires that all who vote shall be registered ; but up to the present time very few have complied with that necessary condition. Let everyone feel that it is his duly to vote, and secure a registry certificate at once. It is not only important that all should vote, but a ticket should be selected on which all w ho have the City's interests at stake can harmonize. Will you not urge this important subject on your readers? Citizen. Special Notices.

THIS ARTICLE IS BEING prepared by us at our place of business in this City, where we invite Planters and others interested t> cali and examine our stock, and witness the preparation of ihe above named MANURE. It ig composed enurrly of pure and unadulterated GUANOS (of which 25 per cent of the whole mixture is warranted to be pure No. 1 Peruvian Guano), and we warrant each and every package of it 5 o contain the exact ingredients and same proportions as the sample analysed by Pro!. Shepard, whose analysis and report we annex, as follows: ChARLESToy, S. C., February 16th, 1567. Jf«m. Wilcox, Gibb* ts- Cos.: GsyTLEUEy ; Tbe following is my analysis and report upon the sample you have placed in my hands, of Wilcox, Gibbs A Co.’s Manipulated Guano : Ilygrometric water IS 60 Combined water and organic matter rich in atumoniaca! salts IS.OO Phosphate of lime 44.50 C rbocate of lime ].SO Insoluble silieious matter, with considerable traces of per oxide of iroD 15.50 Chloride of sodium, sulphates of ammonia, lime, and with loss 1.30 100.00 The present sample shows a very alvantage.'.os mixture. I? has enough of Peruvian Guano (say 25 per cent, for any soil or crop : while the great bulk of tbe preparation is obviously an unadulterated natural Guano, rich in organic matter, with consi*3erable already formed Amtr.ouia (and tbe material for iis continued production as required by j the crop), together with 44.50 per cent, of Phosphate of Lime, nearly two per cent, of j which is in a soluble state. If kepi up to tbe standard of this sample, there is no hazard in j predicting that lauds treated wi-.a 250 or ;00 pounds of it to the acre, will be placed in an effective condition for any crop. Very respectfully, yours, CHARLES UPHAM SHEPARD. Knowing the composition, as well a* judging frvm tbe analysis and report of Prof, i Shepard, we are confident it will prove to be an excellent MANURE, and pay any} Planter handsomely who uses it judiciously. We would recommend ;he use of 175 to 260 j pounds per acre for Cotton or Corn : 259 to SfnJ pounds for Wheat, and that it be applied ; the same as other Guanos—under the bed for Cotton, in ;he hill for Corn, and broadcast ter Wheat. This Guano is ready for use, all the letups haring been thoroughly ground. J and the whole passed through a serve before packing, and it is a very hands, me article in appearance and condition. It is packed in barrels of about pounds, and bags of 209 pounds, and the price will be uci&rm, as foik-ws : $65 per Ton of 2,00*0 pounds, ! Cash. Our Agents will sell at tbe same price, with necessary expenses added. We are now prepared to deliver this Gaanc in quantities to suit, and solicit orders for the same, which wiil be promptly ailed.
