IMPEACHMENT ON THE WANE.
It seems to be the prevaling opinion that
tbe impeachment persecution is fast losing
grouud even with those who were its most
rampant advocates. Beast Butler seems to
have brought the grand inquest down to his
own level in public estimation, and to have
excited the disgust of the respectable men of
his own party. The New York Journal of
Commerce, commenting on the opening of
the case by the prosecution, says:
• k It may take all day to read Butler’s
epeecb, but a few words will define the effect
which it must produce upou the mind of
tv eiy impartial person who has survived its
peruVal. As a presentation of the “ points”
against Mr. Johnson it is complete. Nothing
ruui.du.3 for Huiier or any one else to say on,
ibat side, or Butler Would have lound it oat
bad said it. It is adroit in fl ittering the Seii-
a:e with the idea that that body in not a
court sworn to do justice, but 6ita m political
or Senatorial capacity only, superior to prece
dents, aud uuuouod by oaths Butler and
the admirers ot the man probably consider
this speech a strong ouc. So it is, iu pas-
siona e invective; but, just in that respect,
it will be regarded by ru-jst people as weak,
for it dibc.obes the a/iimup of personal rancor
which originated and sustains this
pariiaan movement against the Presi
dent. Tucre is something ferocious in
the way that Butler drives home his;
upo-rs of satire, and turns it round in the
wuuud he wakes. Iuste;:d of being a *‘pro-
tfecuiioii," in the ordinary legal sense of that
word, the trial thus far looks very much like
a “persecution,” in which seven or eight
‘‘Mauugers” are to be allowed to gratify their
revenge upon the President by such refine
meats ol intuit us they have learned to em
ploy through a considerable experience in
the House of Representatives. If Butler’s
speech is u samp e of the time in which this
Upeuchmeut business is to be conducted to
the cud, Mr. Johuson may come out of it
with a larger share of popular sympathy than
he possesses at his entrance upon the ordeal.
‘One story is good till another is told.’ Let
people, if there are such, who pin their faith
on Butler, wait tili he is dissected by 8tan-
berry. Evarts, Groesbeck, Curtis, or some
other of the President’s counsel equal to the
job."
The Philadelphia Age says:
“The open appeal made by the managers
of the Court to divest itself of its judicial
character, has created great mistrust and
alarm. It is an aiurm not merely lor th«
individual on trial, but for the character and
the institutions ot our country. The pro
cedure of impeachment was meant .to be a
great and solemu trial under the Constitu
tion aud the laws of the United Slates, ike
highest legal functionary presiding. Butler,
speaking for his associates, says it is n<»
tria-; and tlmt the laws and their high
officer have no place in the matter. Ac-
coming to him, it is little more thau a po
litical caucus. Whether the members of the
Court will suffer this to be imposed on them
a 3 the true view of their functions; whether
the Chief Justice will submit toil, are ques
tions of the deepest momeut.. This case is
either a trial or it is an assassination—a
politic -il assassination. The crime or Wilkes
B ioth was not more lawless than the taking
off of Mr. Johusou in the way proposed by
Butler.’’
A Washington dispatch to the New Or
leans Picayune, says: “Upon Butler’s
shoulders must rest the responsibility of the
iuke-wurmness which hu? so unexpectedly
taken possession of violent patriots.' His
three hour argument (so-called,) deliyered
yesterday did the busioees for impeachment.
The envenomed eeutences, which for three
mortal horns tell from Butler’s lips, so plainly
proclaimed the malice which had arraigned
the Chief Magistrate, that minds enfolded’in
prejudice could not resist the impression that
the prosecution was begun and is oonducied
in the iuterest of party, Butler has thus mar
teriully damaged the prospects of impeach-
“eut, to the great joy of the President's
friends, who are extravagantly jubilant. ,r

Tbe Arrests Yesterday.
Last afternoon, between three and five
ociock, nice gentlemen and a negro were
arrested aud placed under a guard at the
Court House, in the Inferior Court Room,
f rieude were allowed to see them last even-
In S» and furnish bedding and food, but none
^ere released Irorn custody, though any
kind of bond was offered. Captain Mills
fitatud to some of them that he thought they
would have a hearing this morning. The
ntneers appeared to evade the direct ques
tions of why the arrests were made, ami up
to dusk yesterday they were not informed of
auy charges, except suspicions, against them.
, eBe suspicions started with the League
without a doubt. The majority of tbe
gentlemen arrested move in our high-
\ fe st social circles, aud all are honorable.

A GEORGIAN’S WARNING TO HIS
COUNTRYMEN. * „
. A e. w, \ ;> j i 77m ■ - • f -
April 3, 18C8.
Editors Chronicle and Sentinel :
I have taken no active part in politics since 1860.
In fact, I never waa a politician. When onr late dis-
aatrioua war dosed I' found myself disfram bleed,
and am atill in that condition. Although i consid-
•rsd this a Rreat ootragd da my political rights, and
an act of unauthorized despotism on tbe part of tbe
Federal Government, stiU, so far as I was personally
couuerne-i, I deemed It a good excuse to withdraw
fiom all participation.in iesnfs to be decided at the
ballot box; and this I determined tod«. Bat I find
myself confronted with issues which rise in impor
tance far above mere party polities—social, political,
and even natural Hie and death are staked on the
pending contest. The white pe-pie of this country
cannot live on terms of social aud political equality
faith The blacks, ar proposed by the Radicals in their
Atlanta Constitution; and 1t is because I am flrmty
convinced of the truth "of this propo ition that I
'have overcome toy disposition tm remain si lent and
inactive, and have concluded to send you the follow
ing llaesfoi 1 publication: .
The whites entitled to vtite under the Reconstruo.
tioii acts of Congress are more nuuierous than the
blacks, more so even than the present registration
lists show. Ami there wun'd be no danger of the
ratification, by the people,of the nigger Constitution
if it were stripped of its pretended relief mya-nres.
The arch-swindlers, who sugared over this bitter
pill with professions ol relic f. are how laugblusr in
their sleeves at their prospect of success in forcing
it down the throats ot their deluded and betrayed
countrymen. Every lawyer knows that It is a bait
put on tb s Radical hook to catoh -ulls. And I aw
fully fear that many ef the uu orfunate debtors of
the country will not have hor esty enough to resist
the temptation, nor intelligence enough to
discover the trick until they t have irretriev
ably disgraced themselves, degraded their families,
and ruined their conutry. And were I disposed to
gratify an instinctive desire of having the guilty pun
ished, regardless of consequences to the inuoceut, I
would stand silent and Unmoved amid tbe ragtag
sto m of corruption and desolation th.it is sweeping
across my beloved Stale, enjoy its loudest thunders
and exult in IhbdUial catastrophe which will inevita
bly befall these Wicked trickstere arid their deluded
victims unless successfully warned of tueir impend
ing fate. For 1 ueclare to my iaf-duated country
men, mud 1 beg them to heed the warning, that if they
succeed iu fusioning this constitutional (or rather un
constitutional) swindle on (he Sfc-tto, with the v.iin
bope of being reiievod from the payment of their
debts, they wiiT never receive tbe contemptible price
for which they will have sold their country; but, ou
the contrary, will reap the fearful rewsid of disap
pointment of hopes, degradation ot family and rum
of conutry.
1 have said that any lawyer knows this promised
relief is a cheat. In your editorial, Mtnsre Edi.ors,
of 31st ult., (if I mistake uot—nut . having the paper
at hand), you review an article in so toe newspaper
whiob you attribute to ex-Governor Brown, nud
which advocates the constitutionality or this relief
olause of the Atlanta Oonstilutiou, on the grounds,
1st. That Georgia is not a state, but a territory, and
therefore not subject to tbe inhibition contained in
the Oonstlidtlou-of tbe United states against States
impairing the obligation of contracts. 2nd. Tnat even
admitting Ueorgta to be a State, this repudiat-on
measure of her Atlanta Convention will be vaiid if
rariued by congress. N >w I think yon attribute
this artiem to the wrong author, arid tbat your error
iu this regard may operate injuriously to the cause
which you and i have so deepiy ut heart, “itrowniag
men,*’ you know, “eaten at straws;" aud the dtbtore
who cannot pay their debts, or do not. wish to do it,
as tbe car o may be, may flatter themselves with toe
hope that if a lawyer of Governor Brown's eminence
at the bar holds to this doctrine that there
may oe some gum in it. Now for ray reasons tor
thinking you m error as to the uaterniry of this news
paper ariicle. First, b-caase of Its palpable absurd!
ty. For, however great maybe Governor Brown's
polit oal < rrors. be certainly has more regard tor his
legal repntdilun than to advocate me monstrous duc-
u-iues tbat a territory of the United States, which ha j
no legislative power except what is delegated tu it by
Oougrcss, has power to lufra -,t a plain pi ovlsiuu of
the Goustitutioii, which the States are prohibited
iro n violating Besides this, if mis Atlanta affair
is rat fled by the people of Georgia and reviewed by
Oougre.-H, t.ven tuis unknown writer will admit that
the territory (save the mark I) ipso facto becomes a
State, With alii-f unconstitutional provision in Us or-
gaqjc jaw.7 2.’ltt>o what btcym^a j)f thg territorial ar
gument ? It dfes with tae^Territory. Thciii as to tlie
other idea that a ratification of this concern by Con
gress would cure the evil, it is equa ly absurd. And
die reason given, Viz: That Oou-'reas ca-i e/en “des
troy contra-.la” by passing bankrupt laws, Is more
absurd thau >he prop isition. For what ueceeeity was
there (or the framers of the Constitution to instrt In
that ins:ruuient. a specific cl tuse giving Congress
power to pass bankrupt laws, if th -y already had
granted to them lu« general power to pass any aud
all law-5 they pleased to pass impairing the obligation
of contracts V
Bui I will not iusult the legal profeS; ion by pursu
ing lhi-» matter aBy fui ther. My second reason tor
not believing Gov. Brown to he tho author of the ar
ticle n ques ion is now to the point Atnl’more *ati»-
lactory. Aud 1 give it publicity from a *ei.ae . f jus
tice to h ! m us Well as yourse f, aud that no one be
entrapped or misled by the weight of nis, wrongly
quo:ed authority. Below you will Had au extract oi
a idler from, him, now iu my po^essmn written bat
a little over twelve months siflce iu reply to oue
Which he had received ftom a lepud atioriist. From
tills extract you will perceive that he contends not
omy that Georgia :s a atate and uo Territory, bui
a:so th it neither the State nor Congress -c*u grant
the relief contained in this Atlfints dooumsm. K
Goorgia was a State fioeeh months since, whet has
transformed lierintj a Territory? It Cjngress had
ao po« er in the premises then, where have They ob-
ta ned it since ? But to'the extract.
“While I iavor every Constitutional relief which
the Legislature can afford to our distressed and im
poverished people, I am obliged to say that I do not
thinit the Oouatlmlion of the Uuited States leaves
this an open question. It declares that no State
shall pass any law impairing the obligai ion of con
tracts. Yoniuayrep y, how then can the State re
pudiate her own debt v The answer is simple—be
cause she cannot be sued iu any court in the woild
Without her consent. Consequently if she refuses to
pay, there is no way to get the question before a
court or to coerce payment. Not so with an iu-
divldual. It the State passes a law repudiating the
debts of tho individual, he may still be sued, an-i
wheu the question gets be ore the I'ourt, if the law
oouflict with tbe Constitution, as it would do in the
case you propose, the Judges are sworn to declare the
law a nullity. They have no discretion in the
matter, wheu the violation of the Constitution is
palpable Your remtdy of a call of another Con
vention of tbe people of the State cannot meet the
question, as the Convention has no more power
man the Legislature, to change tbe Constitution
of the United States. They esu only change
the State Const! in'ion; and it must be borne iu
mind tbst the language of the Constitution of the
United States is. not that no State Legislature shall
pass any law impairing the obilgatiou ol a contract,
out that no State shall do it. There is uo posable
way by which the State can do it. either by t je Legis
lature, a Convention of the people, a mass meeting
of tlie whole people, or by a general vote of the pe v
pie at tbe ballot box. If done in any of these or iu
any other mode it is done by the State, ard the Con
stitution Is p Sitive that no State.shall do it Tlie ■ e
lief you propose is, therefore, utterly impossible
without au afieratlon oi the Constitution of- the
United States “ Even an Act of Congress ’ ’ (his words
but my italics) “could not legalize the act if done by
n siate. as euch an sot if. CoDgiess, in viola-ion of
the Constitution of the United Statee, would iteelf be
declared void by the Courts.’*
“ Now Messrs. Bdltors, are you not satisfied by tne
above «xtract that you attributed the article in ques
tion to tbe wrong aothor? And you, O my deiudrd
country tom! shipwrecked In fortune, and looking
out for some floating plsnk ou which you may ride
into port, read and ponder tide quotation from that
<ii»tingul«hed man, whom you woniu invoke as au

cocted nt Atlanta, by traveling Yankees, leuegaie
Georgians arid ignorant negroes, and held out to

Sit fits wllf not be Of the most
tranquil ^ to connection

THE COLUMBUS ARRESTS—GENERAL
MEADS’S ORDER.
The Columbus Sun, commenting upon
the arrest of a number of young gentlemen
in that city on'euapicion of their connection
with (he recent killing of tbe notorious
Ashburn, an account of which arrests we
give in another column, says :
It is well Yiiown that dodo 6f the partfea
alluded to hadjapy nfore to do with tlie re
cent disturbances iu this city, thau General
Meade himself, and as the young men com
posing this elub were the first a few nights
since, when the peace and safety ot the
town was threatened, to voluatuer their ai.J
to the civil aud military authorities to pro
tect life and property, and topreserve order,
the whole thing beurs upon its face the
sembiance of an attempt to intimidate citi
zens in the exercise of their rights, and to
paralyze tbe efforts now beiug made to res-
cae this city find county from the domina
tion of mgroes and vagabond adventurers.
The stringent orders oi Gen. Meade against
the press, and the wholly imaginary organi
zation, called the Xu-Ktux Kluu, give
strength to this conclusion, if G=n. Meade
is possessed of one tithe of the intelligence
ascribed to him, he should know tbat there
ia no secret organization iu this Stale of a
political or criminal chatficler, save that
known as the loyal Leaguo. -If he is not
aware of the fact, everybody else is, that in
these midnight conclaves the ignorant aud
credulous negroes . are assembled almost
nightiy, lo be harangued and incited against
the white people of the Country by a set ot
the most vicious and irresponsible men ever
allowed beyond the boundaries of penal
oolonie8 and prisons. The presa within the
year past, has teemed with acoounts of the
hHrungues of these men in open day to large
crowds of negroes, threatening taem wiih
the gallows, with death, tortnre, band-saws
aud cow-hides, if they dared to exercise
their undoubted privilege to vote as they
pleased ; and yet there has been no fulmina-
tious from headquarters against these men,
or the secret midnight associations of Loyal
Leaguers.
Tuey are permitted to flourish and spread,
wheu every boy in the C'unmnuity knows
when aud where their meetings are held;
but upon bare suspicion, communities are
thrown under martial law, and citizens are
restricted in the exercise of rights aud func
tions which have not as yet oeeu misused.
Thu terrible threats of Edwards, Muuil aud
others in this place, and the fearful inscrip
tions upon the banners in a negro processi >n
iu Macon, have - raised^ tke well-founded
suspiciou in the public mind that in these
Loyal League dens a death penalty is at
tached to a violation of any of the orders
given to the negroes. If such be not the
case, why, we a^k, do these iguoiaut crea
tures cower with fear befuie the people who
make the threats in public.
The city, of Bavanuah with its great com
mercial .wealth and interests has for months
tiembied with weil-fouuded apprehenfiou
under the incendiary t eachings ot Bradley,
the nigger, and Hopkins, the perjurer. The
latter has been charged, by a military c >m-
mijjsiou, with having incited a riot ending in
bloodshed aud violence, and yet in place of
being hunted down by bayonets and con
fined in a dnngecn, but a few days since we
hear of him riding with Gen. Meade about
the streets of Savanft^b. r
It General Meade’s; Order ds .Intended to
put everybody upon equal terms, the Demo
crat and the Radical, iao white man and the
black one, the Loyal Leaguer aud the Ku-
Klux—if there be one—if Hopkins, Bradley^
Edwards and MaulJ, are lo^e hauled lo ac
count for ibeir language and acts—in fine, if
thi9 order is to be rigidly and impartially
executed, and tbe Sun aud Times and other
journals are to be permitted the same license
allowed John Hardy’s Sendael aud Bui-
lock’s organ at Augusta, then we shall hail
it as the wisest act of General Meade’s ad
ministration.

Received the “Highest Premium” awarded, to Fertiliser by the American Institute of
New York, held October, 1867. u j, . .. j s ,.f ; *
For fall report, with analysis made by the Committee of t^« Institute, composed of Dr
C. E. Buck, Pro! J. G. Noble, and other promipent Chemists, see Pamphlets.
The distinguishing feature of this Snper Phosphate from other similar Fertilizers is that
all of its ingredients are of animal origin, and are either soluble in water, or in a condition
to quickly become soluble in tho soil, and be tak 0 ^ up by the crop.
Contains no inert or mineral materials. j
The proper relative pr- /portion of the ingredients in Mapes* Super-Phosphate, to meet
ihe requirements of tbe Cotton crop on Georgia jtpd Booth Carolina toffs, is fully proved
by the experience of P.anters, who testify that whenever they applied the tame to land,
noted for rustmg Cotton, tha disease was Entirely corrected find a healthy, vigorous
growth producod, on the same land. j . ,q u<n j t . • -

reports ttat seventy five pounds per aerft, on old
land, increased both the Cottar *uu Corn three-fold.
Considers it far more economical than Peruvian

Dr. E. PARSONS, Sandsrsville, Washington co.
Ga, says:—My observation is that Mapes* Super
Phosphate is a preventive against rust in OotUB;
Hub about doubled the Cotton and trebled theCo.n.
Has done better than l eruvian pound lor pound.
J. W. 8 ’OTT, of the same eection, reports that Ilia
orop manured with Peruvian Guano was fsr mere
'.ffecued by drouth and excessive rains than where
M ipes 1 Super Phosphate wair used. Shall nse
Mapes’ in preference to any Fertilizer he has seen
used by liis neighbors.
W. H. SPAHK3, Eatonton. Ga,,’ reports:—On land
tbo it half covered wi.h sedge, and wnich had not
oeen cultivated in two years, where the manure was
out in badly, manured crop would yield two pounds
where the unman ired woula yield one. .
B. B. HAMILTON, Americas, Ga., report?:—Ob

S'iper-Ph«<8phatc, applyinv it ns a top-dressine. It
•b considered by al’, I have bad the beet garden thia
year in SouthweLtern Georgia.
JAMES VoMEBKIN, Alston, 8. C., reports:—Ose
a ton of Peruvian arid found the result but one-half
98 compared wrh Mapes’ Super-Phosphate. Soil
mostly sandy, with cUy sab-soli. Harked difference
iu size of the balls In favor of Mapes* Snper-Fhon-
phate. On cabbage plants the increased growth
was about 100 per cent.

JOHN R. HAIR Mims, 8. C.:—Cotton was made
vigorous ana neatthy, and matured at Uaitjsoo weeks
tarUer where Mapes*Saper-Phosphate wttaused, as
compared with other Fertilizers. Mapes 1 Super-
Phosnhate produced 100 pounds per acre More cot
ton than Rhodea’ Supsr-Phospnate, and 60 pounds
per acre more than 8oluble Pacific Guano. 'Sams
quantity ef each (160 pounds) used to the acre: cul
tivated in the same manner. Manes’ Super-Phos
phate more than doubled the yield of cotton.
B. J. VENNING, Christ Church Parish, 8. G.. re
ports;—One application of 20C pounds Mapes’ super-
PhoKpbaie per acre.made the Cotton grow to the
height of sizfselt where it grew only two feet the
year oelore. Considers Mapes’ 8nper Phosphate the
BEST F5BTIUZER FOB PEA ISLAND COTTON,
and would safely recommend it to all planters.
8- C MEANS, Spartanburg, 8. C , writes—Used
24i) pound-i per acre, applied May 18th. Can safely
say never saw a more vigorous growth Imparted to
Cottonfrotbthefese of any manure. Satisfied the
use of Mapes’ Super-Phosphate pays hundreds.
W. A. MERIWETHER, Valle Curds, near Colum
bia. 8. C., r«p -rto that Mapes’ Super-Phosphate has
given pei feet parisfactlon, and that It permanently
improves tha soil. Has no hesitation in saying It is
the special manure for Turnips and Irish Potatoes.
P. C. PENDLETON, Valdosta, GeorgK writes:—
Mapes’ Scper-Phoephate has exceeded hiy most san
guine expeciaxtous. The effects of its nse on Corn,
Peas and garden veg tables was most marked. If
it can be always kept up to the present standard. It
most take tae ie*d of all other Fertilisers now la
use. r
M. B HUNTER, Quitman, Ga,, reports:—Applied
>t the rate of 150 pounds per sere, upon every alter
nate four rows. The result was truty astonishing. The
manured rows yielded folly double the neighboring
alternate rows.
W. J. ANDERSON, Fort Valley, Ga., reports.-
Mapes’ Super-Phosphate baa doubled ice crop of!
Cot on in every case reported, and some report It
nab more than doubled their crop. On Wheat and |
Oats the result was % eiy satisfactory.

E. R. LILES, Lilesville, Anderson District, 8. C.,l

Mapes’ Super-Phosphate, tne re ult was decidedly-,
in iavor of Mapes* snpcr-Phodphate, attributable!
beyond doabr to the fact trial the ravages or the 1
rust were not, by a marked difference, to be seen
where it was applied, as where the other manures'
