Battle of the Fertilizer*.
The Guano men of Augusta were up before
the Board of Health on Wednesday, on com
plaint of nuisan ce.^Their immense deposits of
fertilizers “schmelt bat,”—gave the ladies head
aches and made them nervous. >
■ Thereon ensued a learned debate upon th^
question whether the odor of guano was delete
rious to health, and if so, whether some guanoes
were not entitled to a bad distinction over others
in that particular.
On this point, OrchHla, Sea-Fowl and Soluble
Pacific pitched into Peruvian ttrongly. Peru
vian retorted severely, and gave Chesapeake,
Phosphate and Baker’s Island fits. In the strife
of tongues. Fish Guano set up a crow, but was
unanimously coughed down as a stinking rascal.
The whole Rawbone Superphosphate family,
as numerous as the Waahbumes, finding them
selves unnoticed ifc the fray, began to chuckle,
but were told by Poudretto to hush up for a set
of humbugs and imposters.
Upon this, Wando wanted to know whers
Poudretto came from, that he should lift up his
bead in respectable company.
Flour of Rawbone, with a'slight cough and
holding his nose the while, said he presumed,
of all the company present, he alone could plead
guiltless of any offence to the nostrils. I am,
continued he, almost a pure white, and
but here, by a dexterous back-handed stroke,
Plaster of Paris knocked him flat A pretty son
of rotten bones and marrow are you, said he, to
be boasting of the purity of your origin. Look
at mo—rbom of pure gypsum and white aa flour,
and ’
And of no account, except to look at, into rj ob
jected Lime, very caustically. You, one and
all, continued Lime, (in an exceedingly acri
monious manner,) will attempt in vain to clear
yourselves of a foetid and miserable stench.
You never can do it without my help.
Upon this, old Peruvian rapped furiously with
his gavel, and called the belligerents to order.
You aU tlint mare or left, said he, and I reckon
the measure of your stench ia the measure of
your merits—at least, that ia the common idea.
Thereupon it was determined to recommend to
the City Council to regulate the storage of fer
tilizers, and the meeting adjourned after a
stormy session.
The MannlUctnre ol Concentrated Ex
tract of Ouk Bark.
Nearly a year ago we had the pleasure of call
ing the attention of our readers to a letter and
advertisement of Mr. Thomas W. Johnson, of
New York, upon this subject; and in an extend
ed editorial notice explained at length the im
portance and profitable character of this busi
ness—the machinery elaborated by Mr. Johnson
for its prosecution, and the mode of manufactu
ring the extract, together with its use and mar
ket value. Much attention and inquiry were for
a time excited to the subject; but how many
pursued the matter to practical results we are
unable to say. To-day we print another com
munication and advertisement from the same
gentleman, and take oecasion to reiterate the
opinion-that, in our judgment, the business
holds out large inducements to parties favorably
situated for its prosecution. In a private letter
to us Mr. Johnson says “ if some of your enter
prising citizens can be induoed to take hold of
the matter in earnest, I will at once come down
there, and will make such terms as will lead to
the immediate development of the manufacture
throughout the State. I shall be able to offer
tempting commissions to some good man to rep
resent our interests in your State.”
Tin* War* Coining!
Two wan are said to be coming, for reasons
following, to-wit:
1. A war with England, because, as is alleged,
she interfered in behalf of tho Southern Rebels
against the United States.
S. A war with Spain, because the United
States are going to interfere in behalf of the Cu
ban Rebels against Spain.
The causes of the wan, you will observe, are
perfectly harmonious and consistent The object
is to teach the nations of the yearth to let each
other's concerns alone when the United States
wants them to do so, and to '‘make rebellion
Debate on tho Fifteenth Amendment.
Our reporter favors us with a very earnest
and incoherent debate in tho House on the
fifteenth amendment, which we pnblish else-,
where.
Tint Pauiowuu.Tbxe.—We have a few speci-
-mens of this beautiful tree in Macon.* Japan
has furnished us many rare flowers and shrubs,
but none superior to the Paulownia Imperinlis.
'It is of rapid growth,—at certain seasons is cov
ered with flowers, which grow upon panicles,—
is free fron* insects, and has a leaf sometimes
forty-six inches in circumference. The flower
is of a dark lilac or blue color. The tree will
grow fifty feet high in four or five years, and is
a magnificent ornament to lawn, park or cem
etery.
The TxNUKS-OF-OrTrcz Act is announced to
be doomed. The moral effect of so overwhelm
ing a majority against it in the House, has led
to such serious caving in on the part of the
Senate that the House bill, for the repeal of the
act, is certain to go through.
A Read Off.—Gen. Grant, on the 9th instant,
removed Chauncy H. Snow, one of tho pub
lishers of tho Intelligencer, as Government
Director of the Union Pacific Railroad. Snow
has in course of preparation a report denounc
ing the construction and operation of the road
in unmeasured terms. The people all concede
there’s too much snow about the road any way.
No Usx.—Mr. Simpkins oomplains that the
dogs on his lot go frantic whenever they see a
“oolod pusson,” but are civil to whites. He
read them the Civil Rights bill against distinc
tions “on account of color or race,” but it did
no good. 'What’s to be done ?
TiTsxaiTi Offer.—In a note to the editor of
the Constitution, CoL J. S. Hutton, of Macon,
offers, if desired, to accept the position of Eu
ropean Commissioner under the Immigration
bill, without a salary, believing that the Bureau
will become a self-supporting institution.
No Interference Desi red.—Grant, the. tele
gram says, deprecates Congressional interfer
ence with Georgia, and therein Gen. Grant and
the Telegraph agree precisely.
The people are curious to know whether the
Legislature are going to buy the Atlanta Opera
House for $300,000. 1
Sewing machines covered with calico are the
best. Every batchelor ought to have at least
one in the house.
O, that the Legislature would adjourn !
The Fcsee and So-Peaee Party.
The 15th amendment has passed the House by
a meagre majority, despite the effort* of uitra-
Democrats to defeat that result.
There were forty-odd votes missing in the call,
and if the dodging Radical members had shown
the manhood to come out fairly and vote boldly
for the defeat of the amendmd&t, it would have
been killed by a decisive majority.
The Democrats opposed it in respect to con
stitutional principle. The Radicals sought to de
feat its passage in order to irritate Congress into
vindictive measures against the white people of
the State. To effect this sinister object, they
were willing to array themselves against the de
clared policy and earnest recommendation of
Gen- Grant, in his Inaugural. Ho besought
them to pass this amendment, in order (as he
believes will be the result) to settle the vexed
question forever and open the road to peaco and
” * 79 ~ s *
But the interests of the Radical organizations
in the Southern States do not lie in that direc
tion. If peace and harmony were restored, the
Radical carpet-bag leaders .would sink out of
sight in a few months—and knowing this, their
study and labor are directed to perpetuate feuds
and divisions. So long as they can induce Con
gress to make war an the Southern whites and
make them the champions and instruments of
Congress, they .are in clover, they are .a great
people. They are like the blacksmith's appren
tice who stole Vulcan's thunderbolts and made
rare sport to himself in daubing them around
the universe. He felt he was somebody till
they took away the thunderbolt* and cuffed his
ears, and so these little knot* of political adven
turers who wield the Congressional and nigger
thunderbolts against the white* are a great peo
ple Bolong as they can keep up the war; but
when the war ia over they will be of no account
at all in anybody's estimation.
Grant wants the war over. He says to them,
“Let m have peace—pass this amendment!”
But, without a solitary objection on principle to
the amendment, we see they are laboring to de
feat it, lest it should prevent another revolu
tionary reconstruction in Georgia—more tur
moil—more trouble—more seething of the pot
of strife, in which the scum will be kept at top,
and dance merrily on the trembled foam. Now,
we bold that no Democrat could consistently
vote for that amendment, however much he
wants peace—but what good excuse can the
Radicals give for attempting to defeat it?
Concentrated Extract of Oak Bark.
Ifestrs. Eaton .‘—Herewith I enclose an ad
vertisement for the Tzleoejuh, again calling the
attention of the people of Georgia to the im
portance and feasibility of establishing the man
ufacture of extract from the oak bark through
out the great oak forests of that State, which I
wish to appear in your journal until otherwise
directed.
The importance to the people of GcorguOof
developing this new and unlimited element of
wealth, has been fully set forth in the columns
of the Telzobaph. So much so as to have
awakened a general interest with tho owners of
the great oak forests in the different parts of
the State.
The season for peeling bark is near at hand,
and those who wish to embark in the manufac
ture of extract this season, should improve the
opportunity of seeming their baric while the sap
is miming, or defer the matter another year.
The price and demand for oak extract, for
tanning and coloring purposes, both at home
and abroad, is steadily advancing.
Extract from Qner Citron or Black Oak bark,
is quoted in this and Boston markets at fifteei#
cents per pound, while in the English market it
sells at sixteen cents (gold) per pound. At
these rates, where bark can be produced at five
dollars per cord, it will return to the manu
facturer a net profit of twenty-five dollars per
cord.' Extract from the chestnut, red, yellow
or other tanning oaks, is selling from ten to
twelve cents per pound in these markets, and
an advance on these prices, in gold, in the
English and other European markets.
Perhaps no better evidence can be given to
your people of the remunerative character of
the manufactnrey, than the fact that parties in
this city are engaged in the manufacture of ex
tract from Black Oak Baric, within the corporate-
limits of New York and Brooklyn, paying
twenty-two dollars per ton for the bark, which
is received from Virginia and North Carolina,
where it is ground, cashed and shipped to this
city to be manufactured into extract for color
ing purposes in print works.
Another factory is also under way of construc
tion in the upper part of the city which will man
ufacture extract from erode bark or hark in the
slab, which will be collected from the country
along and contiguous to the James River and
the coast of North Carolina. Yonr people may
well understand that if a profit ean be realized
in the manufacture, whoso bark costs twenty or
more dollars per cord, that it must be abundant
ly remunerative where it can be had at the low
rates offered in all parts of yonr State.
Taos. W. Johnson,
Yorkville, New York City.
A One-Sided Business.—Tho New York Tri
bune publishes three columns of closely printed
matter containing the appropriations by the
last Congress in items. In cursorily looking
over tho list, we find bnt three items for any
points in tho South, and they, in dollars, are
very small. The navy yards of Norfolk and
Pensacola get a few thousands each, so does the
city of Columbia for a postoffice; and even
these belong to the Government. We do not
find a single dollar given to any Southern im
provement, or to any man or thing in the South,
unless in some way in the employ of or con
nected with the Government, except, perhaps,
the Freedmen’s Bureau, which was an essential
ly Radical pieca of furniture. But how differ
ent does the list read in reference to the North
ern States? It is ungainly—unseemly—lop
sided. The harbors, the rivers, the light-houses,
tho little creeks, railroads, the pensions are as
sisted with a liberal hand. The Southern States
are occasionally tossed a penny. It is like the
poor orphan forced to take up its abode in the
house of its rich relative; it is given an occa
sional copper and cast-off clothing, while the
pampered children of the household have every
whim satisfied. The orphan is incessantly twit
ted for being ungrateful, but the seeds of hatred
are ineradicably implanted within its souL

Congressional.
Washington, March 12.—House.—The House has
passed a resolution ordering a Joint Committee on
Indian affairs. No announcement of committees
this morning.
Butler's joint committee of three Senators and
six Representatives, was ordered to-day. The lms-
ineee of the committee includes all Indian affairs,
including their legal and political status.
The discussion indicated that the object of estab
lishing the committee was to take from the Senate
and Executive the exclusive management of Indian
affairs.
Julian, in speaking in favor of the reeolution,
characterized the conduct of the Senate, in regard
to the Indians, as corrupt and iniquitous. The lan
guage was ruled unparliamentary. Julian withdrew
the bold assertion, and prefaced it with the words,
“seemed to him.” Julian was apprehensive that
honest men could not be obtained from the Senate
and House to act cm the proposed committee.
The resolution ordering the joint Indian commit
tee was adopted—93 to 4.
The concurrent resolution, to adjourn an tho
fourth Monday of March, was adopted—ayes 118;
nays 14.
Banks in trod need'a joint resolution authorizing
the recognition of Cuba when the President is satis
fied that a republican form of Government exists.
It was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affaire.
Also, the resolution authorizing the President
to negotiate with the Government and people of
San Domingo for the annexation of the same. Re
ferred.
The Judiciary Committee was instructed to report
a bill preventive of naturalization fraud.
The bill strengthening the public credit passed,
after erasing the second section, by a vote of 97 to
47.
The Speaker announced the Election Committee
as follows: Paine, Churchill, Heaton, Cessna, Bat
ter (Tennessee), Stevenson, Bardett, Barr and Ran
dall.
The Speaker stated that he would announce the
other committees on Monday.
Bontwell’e resignation was presented.
Honse adjourned to Monday.
An Editor Killed.
Augusta, March 12.—Charles Wallace, editor of
the Georgia (Warrenton) Clipper, was shot and in
stantly killed this morning. Wallace applied'for
admission into the Masonic Lodge at Warren ton,
and was blackballed by Dr. G. W. Darden, who
promised not to oppose his application. Wallace
then attacked Darden through tho columns of his
paper, denouncing him as a liar and a villain. As
Wallace was passing Darden's office, he shot him
from hia window with a rifle; the -hall passed
through Wallace’s head, causing instant death.
The affair creates intense excitement in Warren-
ton. Wallace was a Democrat. Darden is a Repub
lican.
From North Carolina.
Raleigh, March 12.—The House of Representa
tives to-day passed the resolutions introduced by
CoL Sinclair instructing Senators and requesting
Representatives in Congress to vote for the repeal
of the Tennre-of-Office act. The vote was 33 to 32.
The Senate is engaged on townships. Much
business is yet to be acted on. An early adjourn
ment is impossible. ' - .1 - < 7 ‘ , -
FROM ATLANTA.
Fifteenth Amendment Passed In the
Senate.
Special to the Telegraph.]
Atlanta, March 12 night
Senate.—Mr. Wooten moved to postpone action
on the 15th amendment until officially notified by
the House. Lost.
Tho amendment being the special order of the
day, it was then taken up, and, without debate,
adopted—ayes 21; nays 16.
The bill was approved by the Governor on the 4th
of March, to change the time for bolding the Put
nam Superior Court to the third Monday of March
and September.
■ The Appropriation bill was taken by section^.
The section appropriating three thousand dollars to
the Memorial Association, was burdened with
amendments. Ten thousand dollars will be appro
priated and placed in the hands of Mr. Stephens,
Father Ryan and Bishop Pierce, to be, in thdr judg
ment. distributed for the purposes of burial of the
Confederate dead.
Pending which, the Senate adjourned.
House.—The House reoonsiderod tho resolution
that was psased adopting the fifteenth amendment,
by s large majority, syee 81; nays 44.
Mr. McCombe moved to reconsider (passed by cue
vote yesterday,) the purchase of the Opera Honse
as a Capitol.
There will be a minority report protesting against
the injuries inflicted an the citizens of MQledgevillo
and the whole State, and the wilful extravagance of
public money wrung from an over-hardened and
over-taxed people.
Mr. Harper, of Terrell, made an able argument in
favor of reconsideration, taking occasion to *aj that
the State should not pay for such a large building,
and the appurtenances were uncalled for and un
necessary, and at the same time become rented for
bar rooms, billiard rooms and restaurants without
tbe consent of tax payers.
Mr. O’Neal, of Lowndes, spoke against reconsid
eration.
Mr. Williams, of Dooly, spoke in favor of stop
ping this trick. It was a cricket under tbe drank,
and that tax payers should hare a voice on tbe ex
penditures of their own money. Hia remarks were
sensible and to the point.
Mr. Flooroqy made, as usual, an able argument
in favor. f
Mr. McCullough, of Jonas, did not wish to buy at
any price.
Mr. Rawls also favored reconsideration—if any
member wished to buy a bouse, he would take more
time than members have taken to throw away
(300,000.
Reconsideration prevailed—yeas 79; nays 43.
Tbe motion was lost to take up the 15th amend
ment, as being out of order.
Tbe resolution to negotiate for tho Rome Railroad
for 000,000 was taken up.
An effort wae made to postpone action till next
session. Sparks offered an amendment authorizing
tbe State to buy the Barneaville A Tbomaston Rail
road—loot. He spoke in a feeling manner of tbe
widowed mother, the State of Georgia. If you
buy one little road, boy all.
The original resolution was lost
There aro minors of a dispatch from Senator
Hill, that if tbe Legislature will adopt the fifteenth
amendment all will be well, and by this, will make
friends with Grant W.

Yesterday's nominations have caused the disper
sion of tbe Louisiana lobby—nearly all are prepar

Gen. Grant ia reported to have said that legisla

The Mississippi delegation now numbers twenty-
