By RUFUS B BULLOCK, Governor of said State.
To lbe People of Georgia:
The rs cent renewal of a ’tive hostilities against the
person aud property ot colored citizens and white I rr . .„ . , , . „
Republicans by the organized bands of secret as- KCftlPlVoi'S AA MtlHI j)ulSlt(*d (lUHHO.
sassins it, certain portions of the State, seems to j
indicate a concert of action au-l a purpose on the | " \ " "
part of said organizations to persist in defying the 1
civil law. Ammonialed Alkaline Phosphate,
It therefore behooves the pood people of this < *
State to see to it that the commonwealth be cot I AflUllOIIiated SllDCr PllOSphatP,
further injured and defamed by the acts of per- | r . r
sons who, it is believed, are wholly without inter
est in, or regard for, the welfare of the State.
It is the duty of every county, town, or muni
cipal corporate authority to ensure perfect protec
tion for life aud property to every resident within
their borders ; and, whereas, in many cases, the
local officials fail to exercise efficient means to se
cure this result, the good citizens within such
limits—those having a material interest at stake,
or the best iuterest of the WState at heart—should
see to it that prompt meastves are at once taken
under the civil law to arres^ and bring to punish
ment the members of tbca organizations of se
cret robbers and assassinsT^CTniief-^he statutes
at present in force, the Ex^utive is prevented
from taking active measures Bor the suppression
of civil disorders, aud it is therefore ail the more
important that every good cnizen should feel it
his individual duty to becomes, peace officer, and
to aid iu securing to every inhabitant that perfect
protection guaranteed by thel Constitution, and
without which we can never enjoy either civil lib
erty dr material prosperity.
Outrages such as have heretofore and are now
again disgracing our (State, cannot be tolerated or
excused without iuvolving the whole community.
The time has arrived when these outrages must
cease', or the good people of the whole State will
be held responsible for their continuance.
To the end that no motive may bo wanting to
stimulate the people to action in bringing to pun
ishment the violators of the law, I hereby offer a
reward of FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS each
for the arrest, with evidence to convict, of the
person or perspus engaged in the murder of Hon.
Joseph Adkins, white, a Republican Senator of
the 19th District.
And of the person or persons engaged in the
murder of Dr. Benjamin Ayer, white, a Republi
can Representative from the county of Jefferson.
Aud of the person or persons engaged in the
outrage committed upon the person of William
Hardeman, white, of the county of Oglethorpe
when, on or about the 31st day of October last, lie
was tied to a tree aud brutally whipped, the out
rage having been committed by a body of dis
guised men for no other reason, as is alleged,
than that Hardeman was charged with being a
Radical.
Aud of the person or persons engaged in tiie
outrage committed upon tiie person ot Hon. Abra
ham Colby, colored Representative from the
county of Greene, who, ou or about the 30th day
ef October last, was taken from his bed at night
and cruelty beaten, the outrage having beeu com
mitted by a body of twenty-five or thirty disguised
men for the reason, as is alleged, that be, the said
Colby visited Atlanta and requested of the milita
ry authorities protection for tne freedir.en's school,
located in the town of Greenesboro’, in the county
of Greene.
And of the person or (persons engaged in the
depredation upon the office of the Assessor of in
ternal Revenue for the United States Government
iuthe town of Washington, county of Wilkes, ou
or about the night of the !3th (instant, when, as
is alleged, the office was broken open, and books,
papers, &c., scattered and destroyed, and notices
left warning the Assessor to leave the^istrict.
And of the person or personsy^ngaged in the
assault upon the^iouse of the Jaon. Eli Barnes,
colored, Repubii&ni Representative from the
county of Hancock/V^hen, pis is alleged, a body of
masked men at or aboht tffe hour or 1 o’clock on
the night of the 10th indRut, surrounded his resi
dence and by throats or personal violence forced
him to leave the cojmty. \
Aud of the person or persons, who, at or near
the hour of 10 o'clock on the night of the 15th
instant, fired ten or twelve gunshots into a camp
of colored laborers, on the line of the Ma
con & Brunswick Railroad, iu the county of Tel
fair, whereby one man was killed aud another se
verely wounded.
And of the person, or persons, who, ou Thurs
day night of .Court week, October term, about
midnight, said to be a body of sixty men in dis
guise, surrounded the residence of the Sheriff of
the county of Hancock, demanded and obtained
from him the. keys of the jail and released from

CERTIFICATES.
T. J. Sartor, of Union District, S. C., by the use of the two-horse plow and the
Wando Fertilizer, has been enabled to gather from a portion of lands forty-three
bushels of wheat per acre ; and from tbe average lands prepared in like manner, be
has harvested twenty-six ami a halt bushels per aefe. Mr. Sartor is a large farmer,
and, as shown by the above statements, is an enterprisiug aud successful one. This
is the largest average yield of wheat wo have ever heard of iu this State.
Blackville, S. C., October 28th, 1869.
Your favor of 15tb inst. is at hand, and, in reply, will give you the information de
sired in regard to the Wando Fertilizer. I put out the 1st February, fifteen bushels
compost manure to the acre, running a deep furrow, then ridged on it, aud about the
1st April ran a block over the ridge and applied 100 lbs. to the acre, throwing with
good turn-plow, two furrows; and on the 15th I threw out the balance of the middle,
and planted my cotton. I think with the compost it would have yielded GOO lbs. seed
cotton to the acre. I got per acre, with the Wando, 1,000 lbs. seed cotton, which I
consider a short crop. The long drouth and excessively hot weather cut it off - at
least one-fourth. I applied some on thin land, without anything else ; that I gath
ered last year 250 lbs. to the acre, and this year gathered 50U lbs., which shows au
increase of 100 percent, with the unfavorable seasons we have had. Used 100 ibs.

Bennettsville, S. C., October 26th, 1S69.
In reply to yours of 15th inst,, it affords me pleasure to report favorably on the
Wando Fertilizer, as to its merits as a manure for cotton. I tried it on two of my
plantations, side by side with Peruvian Guano, both in equal quantity and equal cost,
under cotton, ou amnanured laud. Where I used it dollar for dollar I think the yield
will be twenty five per ^ent. more than the Peruvian Guano, and where I used it.
pound for pouud 1 think the yield will be ten per cent, more than the Peruvian
Guano. Z. A. DRAKE.
Herrndon, Burke Co , Ga., October 25th, 1S69.
We bought, last spring, two tons of Wando Fertilizer, and used it, side by side
with Peruvian, No. 1, and raw cotton seed, under the cotton crop alone, the eye guid
ing solely in its distribution, without reference to quantity,-upon old land, with a deep
silicious bed from eighteen inches to two feet and cropped, with little regard to rota-
tation more than half a centurj’. Mitbout au active manure, w LI1 uot produce, un
der the most favorable seasons, more than 300 lbs. of seed cotton, nor five bushels of
corn per acre. The results are entirely satisfactory. The “Wando” has yielded
more than Peruvian, and three times the quantity of cotton seed, literally applied as
a fertilizer.
The present has been the most blighting and disastrous season known in this sec
tion for thirty years, and concentrated fertilizers a failure, especially those not com
bining a generous quantity of nitrogenous matter.
From the results of this crop we are satisfied the “Wando” will prove a safe and
profitable fertilizer, aud next year we bhall prove “our faith by our works.”
