FROM OUR
A Decisive, ip not Satispactoby Experi
ment. —On yesterday, a gentleman having io
his possession a tin onp fultof petro oil came
nto the editorial and business room of this
journal, and while exhibiting the oil to the
business manager, and to test the non-explo
sive qualities,- touched^ a.flaming match to
the contents of4b« eop. : - Hi an instant: th ad-
whole room was enveloped in flame, and ttife"'
exhibitor was burning in a bright blaze from
several portions of his person.' 'lie instant
ly threw the burning fluid from him, scat
tering the contents over the floor and all
over the person of the editor, who was in
stantly wrapt in a sheet of flame. The whole
office was filled with flame. The book-keep
er was cut off. from all means of exit except
through the window, to which he imme
diately ran. The editor, In a high state of
excitement, wrapped In flame, ran into the
bed-room of Col. A. MacDonnell, and:was
there, by the exertions of the occupant, Col.
MaoD., saved from burning to death. By
the exertions of the employees in the office,
the flame was soon extinguished. Mr. Chas.
D. Knight was very severely burned on his'
hand and face. He would, have been much
more severely burned but for the active and
>rompt exertions of the gentlemen present.
X was, indeed, a narrow escape to all par
ties, and should be a lesson to those who in
OF YESTERDAY.
Ominous.—Last Friday, while the House
of Representatives were debating Covode’s
impeachment resolution, the glass roof of
the House came crashing and tumbling down
about the heads of the members. The acci
dent was caused by a laborer walking across
the glass roof.
A cotemporary thinks this presages the
moro terrible crash to Radicalism that will
be brought on next November by the labor
ing masses of the North.
he future attempt the exkibitiuii of ^hese
fluids, as well as to those who are oalled
upon to handle them.— Vicksburg Herald,
Feb. 19/A.
Still “Beating on the Drum.”—The fol
lowing is from the New York Tribune. Can
anybody tell to whom the editor especially
refers ?
“To elect a man to office who deliberately
gets drunk is to bring delirium tremens into
our legislation, and to make the preparation
and execution of our laws uncertain, wild,
and spasmodic. Now is the time for the
men who really believe in the virtue of tem
perance to show their faith by their works,
Let us resolve to vote tor no man who has
not firengih enough to resist the temptation
of wine.” •«
Radical Governors Sustaining Congress,
ILbuisburg, Pa , February 23.—Governor
Geary yesterday sent L tbg frtflowing:
Hon. Simon Cameron, t7h4te&. Slates Senate,
Washington, D. C.:
The news to day has created a profound
sensation in Pennsylvania. The spirit of
1861 seems again to pervade the Keystone
S.aie. Troops are rapidly tendering their
services to sustain the laws. Let Congress
stand firm. John W. Geary.
Executive Department, }
• Springfield, III., February 22, 1868. )
The usurpations of Andrew Johnson have
created a profound sensation in this State.
His last act is the act of a traitor. His trea
son must be checked. Tho duty of Congress
seems plain. The people of Illinois at
tached to the Union, I firmly believe, de
mand his impeachment, and will heartily
sustain such action by our Congress. The
peace of the country is not to be irifled with
by that presumptuous demagogue. We
know the National Cougress . will proceed
wisely and cautiously. But let it proceed.
Millions of loyal hearts are pauting to stand
by the stars ami strioes. Have no fear. All
will be well. Liberty and order will again
triumph. B. J. Oglesby, Governor.
Mr. Ewing, of Ohio.—It is expected that
the President will to-day nomiuate to the
Senate as Secretary of War, Thomas Ewing,
of Ohio.
From the beginning of the Government
no nomination has ever been made by a
President under circumstances of such sol
emu .significance. Why is Thomas Ewing
called from his chosen retirement from all
political life to employ bis powerful mind
and devote his venerable character to the
duties of the War Office? What alleged un
lawful dowigu could possibly prompt the
President to Sr-lect, aud what but a public
service transcend an tly noble could induce
this aged aud spotless statesman to accept
the arduous responsibility ? By this nomi
nation the President has issued to his fellow-
freemen of the countiy a proclamation
which no misconstruction can pervert, no
accusation cau obscure, and no art of fraud
or malice can discredit. The law is on his
Fide. The other side is treason.—National
Intelligencer.
Messrs. Stanton, Grant A Oo., to make
assurance doubly sure, have made diligent
investigation, and found no guns, no armed
men, at tliu beck and call of the President
or of the venerable Geueral Lorenzo Thom
as; which latter seems to be the
‘‘Moonshine” of tho “merry tragedy" going
on at Washington ; for Stanton slipped
through his fingers.
Regarding the transpiring events alto
gether, it is the most taroies! tragedy ever
played. Taking the proper view of the rev
olution, it is tragical, but the manner of
conducting it is the most comical yet ae$u.
—Richmond Dispatch.
Georgia Politics.—The Atlanta corres
pondent of the Now York Times, under date
of 22d instant, says ;
The contest for the office of Governor, or
rather for the Republican nomination, if ac
tively waged by the lrienda and adherents of
the two prominent candidates. Mr. Bullock,
I still think, has the advantage, although he
lias not been declared to bo “eminently fitted
for the place” by as many town aud village
meetings us his adversary, Mr. Farrow. Mr.
Bullock, too, has the advantage in poiut of
means and power to influence others; but
Mr. Farrow has the great recomineudation
in Southern estimation of being ‘*to the ma
iler born,” while Bullock is a native of New
York, who only came to Georgia in 1860 or
l&Gl. Both are fully up to the requirements
ot Kadicalism. Neither has “any use for”
Mr. Johnson, and each outvies the other in
the fervor ol his faith in the iufelibillity of
Cpqgrees. .
The anti-Conventionists and anti-Radicals
almost certainly support Gen. John B.
Uordou, now a re-idem of this city, as their
candidate. Re is a comparatively young
n ? au , of unblemished character, of high so-
C1 al standing, of considerable taleut and
Culture, a very fluent popular speaker, and
°f more fame as a soldier than any of the
survivors of the war who had not been ed
ucated to the profession of anna- He is
universally known and respected, and would
certainly prove a formidable competitor
before the people, should he be able to hold
the office. If tho test oath be required, of
coarse he could not enter the race. But if
it should not, as he is not disfranchised by
the Constitutional Amendment, his eleofioo
would be certain, if he consents to run.
Should Mr. Wilson succeed in removiug the
disabilities of ex-Gov. Brown, Messrs. Bul
lock and Farrow will tyave to be vigilant, or
be will get the inside track.

little demaud. Holders, however, remained stiff,
and some small sales are reported. Liverpool and
Mew York accounts are both very depressing, each
showing a decline, with dull and nominal market.
Holders arr now more willing to sell, bulbuyers are
holdiug off. anticipating a further decline. Wo hear
of sales at 22c, but souaider It no criterion In regard

A Peuair Millionaire on Her Travels.
[From the Indianapolis Herald ]
A woman named Jenny Wilson, about
forty years of age, came to the Bates House
several days since, and engaged board, repre
senting that she was from Richmond,
Va , aud had a largo quantity of gold and
Government bonds iu her possession. Her
father, she said, was living In Richmond, at
the advanced age of 102 years, but was still
engaged in business. She herself had, until
recently, owned a large tobacco factory
there, but had sold it for $38.0(M^ and had
bought a large tract ot land near Kansas City,
Mo., and was now on her way to Kansas to
bny more land. Taking a fancy to Mr. Ken-
caster, one of the proprietors, because he
was a Virginian, she offered to-make him a
present of 4,000 extraordinarily fine cigars
which had been shipped to Louisville; but
having, unfortunately, failed to receive re
mittaooes, she borrowed twenty-five or
thirty dollars from him to pay her expenses
to that place. She also insisted upon lend
ing $25,000 to bny bis partner's interest in
the establishment, aud attempted, on several
occasions,, to draw upon her father in Rich
mond for the amount, but was prevented by
the excessive; .modesty pf Mr. Kencaater.
Mr. James Bibbs also came in for a kindness
at her hands. She thought he needed a new
suit of clothes. Would he please go to a tailor
and ordi i a suit, and have the bill sent to her ?
Of courerf Bibbs bit, and aithooghtoo sharp
to do anything more than to order the bill
to be sent to her before the clothes Were
made, he was not sharp enough to refuse to
lend- her ten dollars. A clerk in one of oni-
prominent dry goods houses also lent her,
fifteen or twenty dollars, and we believe sev
eral others contributed to help her on her
way to Louisville. , where her possessions
were at least $12,000 in money. In the
mean time Mr. Seymour, the other propri
etor, suspected something, aud want down
to Louisville to’flhd out about heff v Being
unable to hear of any such woman, be can.e
back and told her that there must beisomo
mistake about it ; whereupon, iu woman's
way, she deceived him. with some nicely-in
vented excuse; and having quieted his tears,
temporarily at least, ahnnouuced her deter
mination logo out stropping. Having no
furs at baud, she borrowed the housekeep
er’s—value, $.72—and started away. Where
sue went to is one of the unsolved myste
ries; but Mr. James Jlibns will pay thirty
dollars to know where she is uow. A more
arrant swindler never traveled; she evi
dently has a great deal of taleut, or she
could not have played her role eo success
fully. Women traveling alone are at a dis
count at the Bates House.
A gentleman of Richmond received a let-*
ter, says the Richmond Dispatch. Stating
that this woman was on her way to Vir
ginia ; that she claimed to be a sister of
Bishop Doggett, the widow of ajfflason,
&c. I i?

FiNiNci.ii, Effect of the Washington
Excitement.—A special dispatch from Pitil-
adeipbia to the Washington Express says:
Outside of stocks aud gold gambling,
fears are entertained that the unsettled state
of the political horizon will act with darn
ing effect un the spring trade about to
..pen. The Prcsideut’a intention of testinj
the constitutionality of the oi*il tenure toil
in court is understood here by the thinking
few, and they chuckle at the act of the Rad
ical iu Coogress in convulsing the couulry.
The reaction, it is thought, will be damaging
to not a few of the over ambUious gentle
men in the House.
Meeting to Sustain the Fhkbident.—
Philadelphia, Feb. 23 —A meeting ot Demo

sick and called for help, and waa met
by a colored wopran. who hastened
with him to tho ho«se, where whiskey was
given him immediately, quite lreely, and
various remedies applied to the wound,
which was on the middle finger of the right
hand, and apparently very slight^' Hot no
thing checked the poison, which, iby_the
lime the boy reached the bouse, bird so
swollen his tongue that he could speak very
indistinctly, aud he died in about two ana a
quarter hours from th. tjme be was bitten.
■ Tbe snake was not found afterward, and
it is not known what kind of snake it was.—
Augusta Constitutionalist.

male persuasion waa born at Mr. Uoyd Ad
ams', in this county, between four and fivfC
weeks ago, that has well developed breasts,
and gives milk. All the means usuhliy re
sorted to for the purpose of checking tUp
flow of milk in female* have been trtedln

nee to accumulate. The case -s a very cn
rioua one, aud is attracting a good deal of
attention from medical nren. It this lacteal
flow continues, what a fine wet nufse the

claimed for this well known Fertilizer. ^ .
Received the “Highest Premium” awarded to Fertilizers by the American Institute of-
New York, held October, 1867.
For full report, with analysis made by the Committee of the Institute, eomposed of Dr
C. E. Back, Pro! J. G. Boole, and other prominent Chemists, see Pamphlets.
The distinguishing feature of thi9 Super-Phosphate from other similar Fertilisers Is that
all of its ingredients are of animal origin, and are either soluble in water, or in a oondition
to quickly become soluble in'the soil, aad be taken up by the crop.
Contains no inert or mineral materials.
The proper relative proportion of the ingredients in Mapes*. Super-Phosphate, to meet
the requirements of the Cotton crop on Georgia and Sooth Carolina soils, is folly proved
by the experience of Planters, who testify that whenever they applied the same toliad
noted for rusting Cotton, the disease was entirely corrected and a healthy, vigorous
growth produced, on the same land.
Peruvian Guano and other Fertilizers have failed to secure a healthy growth.f

THOMAS S. SALTER, Washington county. Ga.,
reports that soveuty five pounds per Mere, on old
land, increased both the Cotton and Corn three-fold.
Considers it far more economical than Peruvian
Guano.

J. W. 8 'OTT, (X tbe same section, reports that his
crop manured with Peruvian Gaano was far more
ifftcted by drouth and excessive rains than where
M»pe9‘ Super-Phosphaie was used, .shall use
Mapes’ io preference to any Fertiliser he hM seen
used by his neighbors.

Mapes’ Super-Phosphate, the re- alt .was decidedly
