'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. Gan. Tbomai Sines Stemton for Damn- TOd:. tenit* Washinton, February 27.—Gen. Thomas hat instituted suit against Stanton aud lays hit damages at $250,000. The fortaer haa also applied for the writ of quo warranto against tho latter.* The Pres ident takes no part in the proceedings. , Cotton.—Our market today opened with very 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 to quotations. 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.

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 crats of the Fourth Ward was held to-day. Oue hundred aud seveuteeu were present on account.

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 TESTIMONIALS. 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. Dr. B.
