JOHNSTON General G. T. V. BEAUREGARD, Lt. Gkk. JAMES LONGSTREET, Lt. Gek. WADE HAMPTON, Maj. Gek.WM. MAHONE, Maj. Gew. ETHEL BARKSDALE, Maj. Ges. CIIALMERS. It is of men like these that the Con slilutionali.it say*: “ Their genius for solving vexed ques tions oj Slate is not in the highest condi tion of intellectual health or ingenuity Because they presume to recommend to the people a prompt and hearty cooperation in reestablishing the politi cal position of the States upon the basis of the laws of congress, they are thus taunted with imbecility. RETIRED. Our friend, Mr. L. T. Blomc, the in defatigable Clerk of Council, now de vote* his whole time and energies to the duties of his office. We are pleased to know that this gentleman is free from the cares and vexations incident to the sanctum, and that he cannot be held responsible for any humiliating and sycophantic effusions which , even had he not severed his connection with editorial duties, /sis personal friends never would have attributed to him.—Constitution alist. The italics are ours. We have pub lished nothing since Mr. Blome's retire ment from the Daily Press, except what was in perfect harmony with the advice given by the distinguished mili tary leaders, who are taunted with im becility by the bonus journal, which is so intolerant of any person or paper that presumes to differ with it. Does the Constitutionalist desire to be understood ns criticising Generals Lee and Longstreet’s advice as “ HUMILI ATING and SYCOPHANTIC?” How to Promote Emigration. Nearly every citizen of Georgia is convinced of the importance of large accessions to our population from abroad. Immigration is desired, not from any hostility to the negro, or de sire to displace him, but to make up tor the loss of labor awhich we are con stantly sustaining from various causes. Indeed there has always been a g eat scarcity of laborers in Georgia. The soil of the State is capable of support ing ten times the present population, without being crowded. Agreed, as the mass of our people are, upon the importance of increasing our industrial population, the agencies best adapted to the result are matters of general concern. We believe that the best plan would be the organization by the State, of a Bureau of Immigration, with .commis sioners, who should visit Europe and direct attention to the advantages of the South, as a refuge for the dis contented and crowded people of Germany, Scotland and Ireland. Our idea is that the State should char ter several first class steamers, and offer to the right class of appli cants—to be determined by agents on the spot —free passage to our shores. Let the agents referred to be paid by the State, and let them visit every county in the Stnte, and get bona fide propositions from the leading land owners, to sell or lease specified tracts. They could thus secure thousands of acres of good land, for a nominal sum, and there can be no doubt that a tide of population could be started to our borders, which in twelve months would cause property to appreciate in value a hundred per cent. It is very certain that without such increase of population from abroad, our lands will diminish in value, and all our material interests will languish. The negro will gradu' ally seek the fresh lands of the South west, and instead of regaining our for mer prosperity, we shall gradually sink into hopeless poverty and decay. The plan we propose is entirely prac tical. The expense involved would return to the coffers of the Statu in in creased revenue from taxation, iie less than five years, and every interest would assume a cheerful and thrifty aspect. It is most important that such a movement be inaugurated at once ; and we know of no reason more impera tively demanding an extra session of the Legislature, than this. If delayed until fall, it will be too late to get the plan in operation in time for next year’s crop j whereus, if a prompt movement were made, several trips could be made during the present year, and we would enter upon the next crop with the iufu- siou of seal and confidence inspired by a military leader, when reinforcements begin to swell Hs shattered columns. We know this project will be regarded as visionary, and we have little hupe o! seeing it adoptad. Indeed we daapeir of any speedy deliverance from our preaent moping aud misauthropic ad berence to old ideas, old prejudices, and the old ragl that attend them. In the absence of the wise and libe ral action of the State, local associa tions might be formed, which would ac complish much in enlightening the peo pie of Europe concerning the advan tages of the Bonth over the West, as a future home. Agents might be sent out, with tempting offers of cheap lands, and assurances of a cordial welcome to our borders. We need not detail the machinery to be adopted by these associations. Ear nest men can give force and efficiency to their operations, and we do most earnestly urge upon onr large landhold ers the importance of taking some steps to fill up the vacuum that is being made in our supply of labor, and which threat ens the most serious consequences. The Necessary Coarse. When the military bill passed, it became apparent to ns that it was the true policy of the people of the South to signify a prompt acceptance of its provisions, and thns prevent the con trol of the excluded States from passing into the hands of loyal leaguers and agitators, who, in default of action by the mass of the people, would be snre to get up bogus conventions, and repeat the enormities under which Tennessee now suffers. For advocating this policy we incurred the censure of many friends whose good judgment we esteem, but who, we felt assured, would, in due time acknowledge the propriety of our course, and unite with us in restoring peace and harmony to the country. And a little later, when it became ap parent from the terms of the supple mentary hill, that there was no choice left to our people, and that the States must be reorganized under the plan laid down, we promptly admitted the right of the negroes to vote, and favored their registration under our local laws. We did this under the solemn conviction that such a course would promote unity and harmony between the races, and have a salutary effect upon public opin ion at home and abroad. It was the simple recognition of the legal ritrhts of a class who are to live and act with us in the future, and who are allied to us by all the ties of common interest and life long association. We felt that to make this frank tender of good will, would produce the best results, and pre vent that large class from being *ed away by the designing into party organizations prejudicial to the commons interest. A differ ent policy was adopted, and we have never questioned the good motives of those who adopted it. We have no doubt that we shall yet be able to Co s with them in preservation of social order and harmony ; and we, per haps, should pass iu silence the haish criticism of those who have the 'ad taste to charge us with impropei mo tives. If to acknowledge the legal rights of those who are to constitute one tl rd the voters of the State, and to feci he deepest interest in directing their miu a in sentiments of respect and regard for those who are identified wiih them for weal or woe, in all the relations of life —be “ sycophancy”—we plead guilty to the charge. It is gratifying, however, to feel, that where our course has been censured by a few friends, and maligned by a few enemies, we have the support of the prudent and right thinking people of the country. In this connection we are gratified to find, in the Charleston Mcrctiry-s- a pa per that will hardly be accused of sinis ter purposes—the following sound views, which accord mainly with the poli cy of earnest action sustained by us, and which we commend to our readers : It is now perfectly plain, that under the guidance ol a few white people, the attempt is to be made to organize the black population, against the white population of the Southern States, on the ground that there are antagonistic interests between them. We regret this ; but our regrets cannot alter facts. They are probably what most men ex pected, under the domination of those, who passed the Military Act. The question is, what course should all good citizens of these States pursue, to avoid, if possible, the antagonism meditated, and to protect themselves from the evils it must produce ? The Military Commander over this State, will, doubtless, before long, take measures to have the names of all who are entitled to vote on the question, whether a Convention of the Slate shall be held, duly registered. According to the terms of the Mili tary act, the names of all who shall take the oath it prescribes, shall be registered. The act gives no power to the register or to any military officials to reject any one ; but it provides, that any one who shall swear falsely, shall be amenable to punishment by the criminal courts of tbe country, and “ on conviction” shall be punished as having committed perjury. The great point of exclusion, is that the affiant shall swear, that he has not committed ” treason” or “ rebellion” against the United States. The whole scope, intention and effect of the uct is that the people of tbe Southern Sta es are conquered belligerents, to be dealt with accordingly, if we ure conquered belligerents, we are not traitors or reb els. Whether, therefore, any secession ist believes that he has committed trea son or rebellion against the United States: or whether he can take the oath, affirming that he has not done so, is a matter lor his conscientious con victions, subject to tbe judgment of a jury of his fellow citizens if indicted on a trial for perjury. But without going into the question, of who will hold himself excluded from registry by the law, it is plain, tliut it is the duty of all, to prepare themselves to meet its requirements. The destiny of South Carolina, for the time being at least, passes into the hands of the regis tered voters of the Statu. It appears to ns, that all means ought to be speedily used, to bring forth into praclioat activity, the whole conserva tive element, white and black, in the State; organization, in net prevail Over desultory,—individual efforts. Combinations, must be met by combi nations. To secure any earnestness or success in action, men mutt move to gether We recommend, therefore, that prompt and decisive measuresthould be taken by the people of South Carolina and of Charleston, to meet the difficul ties and dangers before us. They can be overcome, to the salvation of the best interests and welfare of the State. jßdfeUlkaea, We are pleased to observe that our honored fellow citizen, who has recently entered upon the duties of the Judge ship in this District, is winning golden opinions. The Grand Jurors of Wash ington county, iu their recent present ments, thus allude to him : In taking leave of his Honor, Judge Gibson, wc feel it our duty to commend the energy and promptness displayed by him in disposing ot the business of the Court, and also his able and impar tial administration of justice, ana we feel confident that the judicial mantle of the lamented Holt could not have been bestowed upon one more fully competent to discharge the arduous duties of Judge of the Middle Circuit. To him we return our thanks lor his kind manner aud courteous bearing to this Jury during the present services. Rccu pern tire Power, There is much iu the following ex tract from Lord Macaulqy’s history of England, to encourage our people amid their present troubles : In every human being the'-e is a wish to meliorate his own condition. This principle has often sufficed, even when counteracted by great calamities and by bad institutious, to carry civilization rapidly forward. No ordinary misfor tune, no ordinary misgovern ment, will do so much to make a nation wretched, as the constant progress of physical knowledge, and the constant effort of every man to better himselt, will do to make a nation prosperous. It has often been found that profuse expenditure, heavy taxation, absurd commercial restrictions, corrupt tribunals, disastrous wars, seditions, persecutions, conflagra tions, and inundations, have not been able to destroy capital so fast as the exertions of private citizens have been able to create it.” S. ecial Notices. ffQpr AUGUSTaT ROYAL ARCH CHAPTER, NO. 2.—A CALLED Con vocation of this Chapter will be held at Masonic Hall, THIS (Saturday) NIGHT, at 7i o’clock.

'T'IIIS ARTICLE IS BEING PREPARED BY US AT OUR PLACE OF BUSINESS A in this City, where we invite Planters and others interested to call and examine onr stock, and witness the preparation of the above named MANURE. It is composed entirely 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 to contain the exact ingredients and same proportions as the sample analyzed by Prof. Shepard, whose analysis and report we annex, as follows : „ „ r ., Charleston, S. C., February 16tb, 1867. Messrs. Wilcox , Gibbs kb Cos, : Gentlemen : The 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 18.60 Combined water and organic matter rich in auimoniacal salts 18.00 Phosphate of 1ime..... 44. 50 C rbonate of 1ime....." j go Insoluble silicious matter, with considerable traces of per oxide of iron.!!.. 15.50 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 Guano (say 25 per cent.) for any soil or crop ; while the great bulk of the preparation is obviously an unadulterated natural Guano, 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 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, yours, CHARLES UPHAM SHEPARD. Knowing the .composition, as well as judging from the analysis and report of Prof. Shepard, we are confident it will prove to be an excellent 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 800 pounds for Wheat, and that it be applied I the same as Guanos—under the bed for Cotton, in the bill for Corn, and broadcast J tor Wheat. Ihis Guano is ready for use, all tbe lumps having been thoroughly ground j and the whole passed through a seivo before packing, and it is a very handsome article in appearance and condition. It is packed in barrels ol about 300 pounds, and bags of 200 pounds, and the price will be uniform, as follows : $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 Guano in quantities to suit, and solicit orders for the same, which will be promptly filled.
