a county after General Lee.
Death op an Aged Preacher. —Rev.
George Banghart, one of the oldest
Methodist preachers in the United
States, died at his residence near Bridge
ville, N. J., on the 9th inst., in the 88th
year of his age. He was one of the
pioneer Methodist preachers in that
State.
Snow fell to the depth of three inches
at Huntsville, Alabama, and Chattanoo
ga, Tennessee, duriDg Thursday night
last. There was also a considerable
fall of snow about the same time at
Rome Ga.
Mr. Jones, whose serious injuries,
received at Kingston, we noticed a few
day ago, died at that plage on Thursday
last.
The Effects of Half Dotv and
Double Grog.—A Washington tele

ill and fears are entertained for his re
covery. His friends think it a return of
his oldgcomplaint.
Assassinated. — Dr. Thomas J. Par.
sons was assassinated near Dublin, Ga,,
on Friday night last, by one Calvin
Williams. No cause assigned. So says
the Savannah Republican.
We learn, from the Thomaston Her
ald, that Mr. Benjamin Jordan, of Up
son, who was shot by a negro recently,
is recovering. The negro made his es
cape at the time, but has been arrested
and is in jail.
The Lawyers and Money Chang
ers to Vindicate Byron.—A “Byron
banquet” is to be given in New York
City on the 25th of April next, the an
niversary of Byron’s final departure
from England, by a large number of
prominent bankers ami lawyers, who
propose by this homage to the poet, to
testily their reprobation of the foul slan
ders heaped upon his memory by an
American authoress.
Several Missouri gentlemen have giv
cn !flo,ooo to endow a chair in Wash
ington College, Va., to be called the
Missouri Professorship of Applied
Chemistry; and Brevet Major General
William 8. Harney, U. S. A., of Saint
Louis, has subscribed SI,OOO for the en
dowment of the chair of its President,
General Robert E. Lee.
Tiie Legal Tender Decision.—
Tbe rectnt decision of Chief Justice
Caase, that money due upon contracts
made before the passage of the Legal
tender act must be paid in gold or its
equivalent, has already been cited as a
precedent. In an action for the foreclo
sure of a mortgage executed in 1857,
•which was tried in the Supreme Court
at Brooklyn, on Tuesday last, Justice
Pratt decided that both principal and
interest must he paid in gold. Asa
matter of course, this decision will here
after he followed in all similar actions.
The Vicksburg Herald of the 16th,
says the Peach and Plumb trees of that
vicinity arc in full bloom, and fears they
will be caught in a cold snap. The fear
doubtless, has beforo this, been relieved
in the realization of its worst fears.
We have not visited the country, but
hoar that Peach and Plumb trees in the
surrounding country aro pretty gener
ally in full bloom. Friday and Sunday
and Sunday night’s cold blasts, we fear,
has proved too much for them.
The News says 800 mules have
been sold in Albany this season for the
aggregate sum of nearly two hundred
thousand dollars. What a sum to be
taken from one community in the space
of four mouths for mules alone. Alba
ny is not alono in this dtaiu; Columbus
has sent out to her surroundings fully
that number, or more, in the last four
months. What a criticism upon ,the
system of farming in the South. Every
farmer can raise liia mules and horses
at a cost of less than SBO a head.
Murdered by a Horse Thief.—A
few nights since 8. Cotton was shot and
killed by Goodberry Kirby, a notorious
horse thief, whom he was attempting to
arrest, about twelve miles from McMin
niville, Tenn. Kirby escaped, and S2OO
reward is offered for bis capture. He is
reported to have committed a number of
depredations since and during the war,
and was at one time sentenced to be
hung at Glasgow, Kentucky, but escap
ed from jail some weeks before bis exe
cution was to have taken place.
A resolution was offered in tbe Illi
nois Constitutional Convention on the
16th in favor of an article in the amend
ed constitution to prohibit white and
colored children from attending public
schools, and to provide separate schools
for each, and prohibit any appropriation
of the taxes paid by the colored people
of the State for the education of white
peoplo, and prohibit the appropriation
of any part of the taxes paid by white
people for the education of colored peo
ple, and that such article be submitted
separately to the people.
It is now contended by some that
Revels, the Senator elect from Missis
sippi, is not a negro, but an Indian of
the Choctaw tribe; aud that in his elec
tion, tbe negroes of Mississippi bave
been badly sold. If an Indian, then he
must be of the Catawba tribe, being a
native of North Caolina. Only half
breed, we presume—half Catawba and
half negro—a bad mixture. This ac
counts for his propensity to appropriate
other people’s money to his own use, as
verified by Ills church operations in
Kansas.
White Labor.—Ten thousand white
Faborers have been procured this season,
principally at Chicago, through the in
strumentality of the “Central Emigrant
Association” of Mississippi, and for
warded to tbe planters in that State.
Some of thß roads are passing them
free, and none are charging more than
one cent per mile transportation. The
West seems to be preferable to Europe
for engaging foreign labor. It is oh
tained at lower rates; and the disap
pointments the emigrants meet with in
the West make them desirous to seek
homes in the cotton belt, and better
contented with their situations when
they get into them. Would it not be
better for whito labor advocates of Geor
gia and Alabama, to turn their attention
to the same sources ?
Col. S. W. Melton, (Democrat,) ol
Anderson, was elected to a Circuit
Court Judgeship last week by the South
Oarolinar Legislature, over Rev. J. Scott
Murray, Radical, of Columbia. A let
ter from Columbia says the triumph of
Colonel Melton—who, by the way, is a
fine lawyer and will make an able judge
—is not significant as a Democratic tri
umph, for it is no such thing ; but it is
significant (and for the carpet-baggers
fatally so) of the split between the ne
groes and the Northern white adven
turers. Cuffce has been feeding Yan
kees with fat offices until he begins to
see that, between him and Yank,it is all
Buzzard to him and all Turkey to Yank.
And Cuffee is tired of that.”
The Day We do not Celebrate.
Many readers of our paper can re
member when this day was celebrated
with all the “pomp and circumstance of
glorious war” from one end of the coun
try to the other. When military com
panies paraded and evoluted ; when
adolescent orators spouted florid rhet
oric ; when belles and beaux tripped the
light fantastic at the “Twenty-Second
Ballwhen the old stagers drank
dram, devoured hams and turkies, sung
maudlin songs, and gave muddy toasts
to “the Day we celebrate,” and “the
memory of the Father of his country.”
One of our earliest recollections is of
John Milledge, who now orates to mu
lattoes on the beauties of Radicalism,
rigged out in blue swallow tail with
brass buttons, buff vest and tight black
pants, ranting at a terrific rate in the
cosy old Presbyterian Church in Angus
ta ; while a Band of sable Africans in
the gallery of the same edifice assisted
an old iron six pounder, on the outside,
to burst the tympanumsof the audience,
with rude blasts from brass horns, and
the orator was bursting the hearts of
all with patriotic emotions called up by
his eloquence. We thought then that
John was going to succeed the Father
of his country and our country in the
Presidential chair ; and we longed to
be a twenty-second of February orator.
We could not imagine that John would
ever become President of a nigger meet
ing, or that we should be ready to kill
a committee that could be reckless
enough to ask us to pronounce an ora
tion on the twenty second of February
or the Fourth of July. But times
change and men change with them.
The Father of his Country has got
ten to be a small personage in pop
ular estimation. He has been suc
ceded by Old John Brown and Abra
ham Jjincoln, and Ulysses Grant. Next
year Hiram Revels, United States Sen
ator from Mississippi, may be the Path
er ,of bis Country, or Aaron Alpeoria
Bradley or Potty Farrow or some other
trash. The country is having too many
fathers. Nobody can tell who they are,
where they came from; and it is harder
still to say who- are the fathers of the
variegated Fathers of the Country. The
4th of July is lost as a National festi
val, so with the 22d of February. They
have gone with the Constitution and
the Government founded by Washing
ton and his comrades of the Revolution.
There is no day in the year’s calendar
when the citizens of this country, from
the Penobscot to the Rio Grande, can
throw aside passions and prejudices and
sectional hate and meet together around
one common altar. Will there ever he
agaiu ? Can the broken bonds of Na.
tional unity and fellowship ue
lished and re-united ? Not so long as
Yankeedom gets madly and patriotic
ally drunk over the “fall of Richmond”
and the poor, deluded darkies of the
South make night and day hideous
when the birth time of Lincoln rolls
around, or the almanac makes emanci
pation day a festival.
Superior Court Yesterday.
Tbe bright, beautiful, yet cold day, yes
terday, found promptly in attendance
al 9 o’clock, at the Court House, all in
terested parties, and quite a sprinkling
of spectators. Two jurors who had
served the usual time were excused for
the balance of the term, and two “tales
jurors” found and sworn in their places.
One person summoned as a juror, who
belongs to the “Hook and Ladder Fire
Company,” was excused from service,
the Judge stating, however, that he had
doubts whether, under the law, any
firamon woro justly entitled t.n tin ex
cused, except the active members of
Companies No. 1 and No. 5. They
were chartered by act of the Legislature,
and were allowed that privilege; the
other three Companies were chartered
by action of the Superior Court, and it
was doubtful whether that privilege
could be granted by that tribunal. He
would look into the matter and make a
decision at the May term.
No business was really transacted,
although the Court did not adjourn un
til after three o’clock. A case which
promised to be of interest, that of I. M.
Nunez & Cos. vs. the Southern Express
Company, was entered upon, and after
going to the jury, met with a continu
ance upon technical grounds. This is
an action brought to recover fifteen
hundred dollars, for the failure of the
Express Company to place in New York
iu “schedule time” a large quantity of
peaches shipped in 1867. Hon. Mark
H. Blandford and Major Moses appear
ed for plaintiffs; Smith & Alexander for
the Express Company.
Another case reached a jury, which
was Respass, Wmitli & Cos., of the Flint
River Factory against the Home Insu
rance Company, to recover the value of
forty-seven bales of cotton lost by fire
in a warehouse in Butler, Ga., ia 1868.
After the evidence had closed, and the
case been fully argued by Col. M. S.
Smith for plaintiffs, and John Peabody
Esq., and Maj. It. J. Moses for defend
fendants, and the Judge’s charge given,
tbe case was dismissed by the
as under the Judge’s charge touching
the nature of the policy of insurance,
the jury would have been bound to
to find for the defendants. The facts
of the case were, that the plaintiffs bad
taken out a policy of insurance for one
hundred and thirty-three bales of cotton
for one month, “then stored in a brick
warehouse at Butler.” This cotton was
to be moved by tbe insured as soon as
possible. When the fire took place
forty soven bales of this cotton was in
the warehouse and consumed. The
court held the policy of insurance to be
“ a close one,” and ruled that unless
the 138 bales of cotton were in store,
when the policy issued, it was void.
It was not proven that over forty
seven bales of this cotton was ever in
the brick warehouse, although the bal
ance was in sheds and on cars at the
depot.
What a Georgia Legislator Did.
—The Atlanta Constitution says :
“A poor girl, scarce eighteen years
of age, full of life and hope, decked with
the charms of youth, innocence and
confiding, loved “not wisely but too
well,” a member of the Legislature. It
matters not what her name or the name
of the county she resides in. He induced
her to leave the home of her innocent
childhood, where she was petted and
spoiled. The seducer came, and with
honied accents and false promises, lured
her from the path of rectitude and duty.
Ruined, the poor victim of his wiles
was brought to this city. They occu
pied for a time, apartments at a private
boarding house ; but the sated profligate
grew weary of charms which once de
lighted and enslaved him. In this, he
betrayed a crime not unparalleled. The
first crime payed the way for villlany of
as deep a dye. He robbed the helpless
girl of the little earnings which the
needle had accumulated in hands of in
nocence, and left her penniless, un
known, without a shelter or a friend.”
Give us the name of the Legislator.
Reuben Calloway and George Robin
son, negroes, were committed to jain in
Montgomery, Ala,on Saturday,on charg

white woman, Os such, is the kingdom ;
of Southern “loilty.”
The Dickens Bolton Case —The
trial of Col. Thomas Dickens, for the
killing of Wade H. Balton, (which
occurred in Memphis in July last,)
before the Criminal Court, closed on the
12th instant, and resulted in acquit
al. Both parties were men of wealth
and influence , and so many, knowing
the circumstances connected with the
affair, had formed and expressed opin
ions, it was with great difficulty a July
could be made up. This occupied the
court eight days. The einpannelling of
the Jury and the trial occupied twenty
seven days, in the course of which up
wards of forty witnesses were examin
ed. Both sides were represented by
the ablest Counsel in the State. For
the State-Attorney General Horrigan,
Col. John Buiiock, Gen. John F. Sale,
an i John Haiiuui, Eaq. For the de
fense—Col. George Gantt, Col. A. J.
Keilar, and Captain T. P. Chambers.
The argument for the S:ate was opened
by Attorney General Horrigan on Mon.
day forenoon. He spoke four hours and
was followed by John Halion, who spoke
five hours, while Gen. Juo. F. Sale made
an argument on the same side which fast'
cd fourteen hours. Colonel Keilar open
ed the argument on the part of lire defense
af, twelve o’clock and spoke four and a
half hours, when he was followed by
Oapt. Chambers in a Bpeech of four
hours, the argument for the defense be
ing closed by Colonel Gantt, who spoke
five hours. Colonel Bullock closed the
argument on behalf of the State Satur
day afternoon at one o’clock in a speech
of six hours. Total, forty one and a
half hours. This case appears to have
created greater interest than any ever
before the Courts of Tennessee.
Graphic Sketches.—Don Piatt de
lights the readers of the Cincinnati Com.
mercial with the following piquant
sketches :
grant.
“I was walking along F street witli a
friend, the oilier day, when we met a
gentleman in an unbuttoned frock-coat,
and ill-fitting pantaloons, who wore his
stovepipe hat well down on his head,
and walked with liis ungloved hands
clasped in the small of his back. My
friend is a stranger in Washington, and
as the above-described approached, I
said:
‘Look at this man, and tell me wliat
you think of him.’
My friend looked steadily into the
dull, glazed eyes and common-place
countenance before us, and, after it had
passed, remarked :
‘What of him ?’
‘Oh ! nothing, only I wished your
opinion, as you are a shrewd observer,
and have seen a good deal of humanity.’
‘Woit, t must sav I don’t see anthing
remarkable in your friend. Wnu is net--
‘Ulysses S. Grant, President of the
United States.’
‘The devil 1’ ”
grant’s keeper.
“Dent is a small man, attached to a
big nose, and has a prejudice against
journalism. I don’t believe he has
sense enough to come in out of the rain;
and, although a graduate of that won
derful institution called West Point, I
doubt his ability to engineer an umbrel
la in a high wind. I despise Dent.”
By-tlie-by, there is some probability,
perhaps, that Don Piatt may be elected
to Congress from the Toledo district iu
Ohio, to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of Hoag. If so, the country will
lose a first-rate newspaper correspond
ent, and gain a poor Congressman.
There will be nobody left to do up the
“Cave of the Winds” and the “Fog
Bank,” as Don denominates the House
and Senate of the United States Con
gress.
The Trading Carpet-Baggers and
the West Point Cadetships.—Not
withstanding the efforts of Northern
Radical sheets to screen the culpable
carper-baggers, and to hush up the ugly
business about selling cadetships, the
truth is likely to leak out. The Charles
ton News has the following special from
Washington :
Congressman Whittemore is pinned
this time. An original letter, written
by him, was produced before the Mili
tary Committee to day, in which letter
Whittemore offered to sell his West
Point cadetship for five hundred dollars.
Another witness sworo that he
bought a West Point cadetship from
Congressmen tsiackourn, ot Louisiana,
last year, for which he paid fifteen hun
dred dollars. .
Tho same witness had negotiations
with Syper, but no bargain was made,
as the price asked was two high.
The Sumter News says : “We have it
from the best authority that he premis
ed a cadetship to the son of one of his
constituents who was not able to pay
$5,000 for it, and the promise was not
fulfilled. We are further informed that
two boys were brought from a New
England State, boarded in South Caro
lina a short time to make them residents,
and the appointments to the Military
and Navel Schools,given, or rather be
stowed upon them.”
Now wo can understand why those
Massachusetts paupers were distributed
throughout the South. They were to
be sent to West Point and Annapolis.
Well, they would make just about as
good officers as those now at the head
of the United States Army and Navy.
The Athens (Tenn.) Post mentions
tho discovery, recently, by hunters,
i in the mountain not far from Cross
ville, in that State, of a cave, the
mouth of which is sufficiently large
to admit several persons abreast.—
Bearing the appearance of having
been entered, the party descend
ed, but before proceeding far discov
j ered human bones and fragments of
clothing. Examining the spot, they
; found a six-shooter, a large knife, and
an India-rubber pouch containing a
roll of greenbacks in a state of preserva
tion. The Post says the opinion pre
vails that the remains aro those of some
man who was attempting to come in
from Kentucky, who bad probably been
shot and wounded, and found a shelter
in tbe cave from his pursuers, only to
die a lingering and miserable death. It
will be remembered that towards the
clos) of the war the marauders of the
mountains spared neither friend nor foe
wht u there was a prospect of plunder.
The Status of the Negro in Chi
cago.—Mr. Barksdale, one of the edi
tors of the Jackson Clarion, who is so
journing in Chicago, as one of the agents
of the Mississippi Central Emigration
Association to employ aud forward la
borers to Mississippi, says:
To-day, I had the honor ot being
served at the table by a man of color,
who hailed from Mississippi. He stated
that he had resided in that Btate several
years, and when questioned as to the
status of the people of his race here, he
remarked, that as hotel waiter he occu
pied as high a scale as they ever reach.
They are not employed to work in the '
farms—they are not employed as brakes
men on the trains —they are rarely to be
seen in that other institution, the bar
ber-shop, which has furnished to Mis
sissippi so many of her latter day states
men—and in exceptional cases, only,
can they obtain employment aa dining
servants and boot blacks. Politically,
my informant remarked, the blacks
have no privileges here in the land that
g-ave to the country the author of Eman
cipation Proclamations. They are not
permitted to vote, much less to hold
office.
Cotton at Selma.—Total receipts
48,089 bales; stock Feb. 18, 1870, 7,867

A Would-be Despotism.
The Journal of Commerce pronounces
S nator Nye’s bill to “enforce the fif
teenth amendment” an insult to,and its
passage would be, an outrage upon the
p- ople. No enforcement is needed. If
the amendment is “law,” it will be
obeyed, South as well as North. The
Journal says:
“ To assume that the Southern States,
or the Northern, will drive the negroes
from the polls, violate the Constitution,
and engage in war with the General Gov
ern ment upon a defunct issue, is an in
sult to the intelligence of citizens every
where.
“The bill calls for three commission
ers, to be appointed by the Secretary of
the Interior, for each election district of
the several Congressional districts of
the whole United States. New York
City is represented by six members in
the" House, and is divided up into over
three hundred election districts, or
about fifty to each Congressional dis
trict, for the accommodation of voters.
At every Congressional election and
Presidential election we should there
fore have some nine hundred United
States Commissioners upon us.”
Not only would we have these leeches
preying upon the public treasury, but —
“At the backs of each set of commis
sioners would stand an array of United
States deputy marshals, specially ap
pointed for the occasion. Reckon it at
the low figure of three for each election
district, and we would have an aggre
gate of deputy marshals amounting to
some 900 on this island.”
Worse than even this—
“ The bill further provides for the
camping of United States troops within
convenient distance of the principal
polling places of the several Congress
ional districts, with a special clause
that in cities the soldiery shall be sta
tioned in the parks. In this city
we suppose they would occupy the
Battery, the City Hall Park, Washing
ton Parade Ground, Tompkins Square,
Madison Square, with a powerful re
serve at Central Park. These forces
would be subject to the general direc
tion of the United States Marshal.”
The man, or the men, who would
force a bill like this through, at a time
like this, if not fools, are madmen—bent
not only on riding rough shod over the
people, whose servants they are, but
provoking to riot, disorder, and con
stant collisions between government
and people.
llow to Save Fruit from Sprint?
Frosts.
The following letter is from an intelli
gent fruit grower in the vicinity of Au
gusta :
Editors Chronicle and Sentinel :
Being often asked “how to preserve
fruit from the effects of frost late in the
spring,” I have decided to again give
the modus operandi , so that each one
may use it in time of need.
Freezing fruit does not necessarily
destroy it, for, if thawed out slowly in
the shade, no one would perceive any
difference in its taste or keeping quali
ties. Thus, apples, Irish potatoes, &c.,
nUotx Lo*d fi-ojon, can. bv being buried
till the frost is extracted,be used and kept
for some time, while growing peaches
and apples, though frozen solid, can, by
the following process, be so restored as
to realize a fair crop, which would oth
erwise be utterly lost:
Make once in about forty feet, on the
Western and Northern side of the or
chard, a pile of about a bushel of light
wood, cut to from six to eight inches in
length, and split fine ; by the side of
which a pile of wet sawdust, tanbark, or
rotten wood must be placed and thus
used:
With a lightwood torch laid on the
ground, stand the prepared lightwood,
like an qrdinary coal kiln, putting from
a peck to the whole amount prepared,
according to the degree of cold. When
the pile is all ablaze, place over the
whole, previously prepared, bark from
stumps so that the fires shall not be
smothered, then cover it all over with
wet sawdust, Ac., with a sifting motion,
such as bricklayers do when applying
sand to the morter bed, but do not put
100 muon on at once lest the Are be ex
tinguished. A little experience will
enable any one to manage this properly.
By lighting every other pile first and
afterwards firing the balance, the best
results are obtained. I once lost part
of my fruit by the winds shifting into
the northeast, and would advise placing
fires on that side also. After all the
fires are lighted there will be nothing
more to do than simply to prevent the
fires from blazing up, and the hands
must keep passing from one end to the
other—now sprinkling on a little saw
dust and now putting on a piece of bark,
so as to keep a dense smoke, a smudge
in fact, never allowing a blaze for a mo
ment. It is a cold business, and anew
beginner must not be discouraged by
appearances, but persevere till the
warmth of the sun has extracted all the
frost from the fruit, which will be some
where between eight and ten o’clock.
™»v be frozen hard, but if
you follow the above you nun..’,. f rnit
when your lazy neighbor will have on
ly leaves.
What time of night you will ask,must
we begin the fires ? That will depend
upon the size of the orchard. So that
the fires are all going and under
perfect control by early daylight, the
danger will be warded off. I begin be
tween two and three o’clock in the
morning, and two or three hands can
make fifty fires by the time sunlight
would begin to do injury. And so com
plete is the protection, that fruit is pro
tected from a quarter to a half mile to
the leeward of the fires.
Allow no one to build a fire to keep
warm at, is my order, and unless you
carry it out, you may as well not at
tempt the business. Morever, do you
lead the hands all night long, for if you
trust them, don’t complain that the
remedy proves a failure.
I have found that when the thermo
meter (Fahrenheit’s) falls to 50° by
nine o’clock at night, that the fruit will
be in danger from frost the following
morning. Be sure to replenish your
material the following morning. I will
give an article on “curculios in their
seasons.

Interesting Operation.
Transfusion of Blood Successfully Per.
formed Upon a Toung Lady.
The Chicago Post of the 14th instant,
says:
The readers of this paper will remem
ber the report of an interesting experi
ment of transfusing blood into the veins
of a dog performed at Rush Medical
| College, last Wednesday, by Drs. Freer
! and Hunt. The carotid artery of the
| animal was severed and the blood al
j lowed to run out until the subject was
apparently lifeless. An incision was
then made in the jugular vein, and the
blood was interjected back into the
animal’s system, with the effect of re
storing him to life.
The account of this interesting expe
riment, given in the Post, was noticed
by the friends of a young lady in lowa,
who had been for some time wasting
away with disease supposed to be con
sumption, and they sent to Dr. Freer
to come and make the experiment of
transfusing blood into her system. Dr.
Hunt, of the Faculty of Rush College,
responded to the call, and found the
patient in a very low condition. He
proceeded to take some sixteen ounces
ot blood from the arm of a young broth
er of the girl and injected it into her
veins. The patient went into a coma'
tose condition, and it was found that
still more oithe vital fluid was necessa
ry. Another supply was therefore
drawn from a sister of the invalid and
injected, and finally a third supply
from another brother about ten years of
age, thirty-six ounces of warm, living
blood, being thus conveyed into the
system of the young woman within a
few hours. The event is not yet deter
mined, though the prospects of recovery
are very hopeful, if the lungs are not too
nearly destroyed. If the desease is
only incipient it is thought that life and ;
health will be restored. This experi
ment is the only one of the kind ever
attempted in the West, and is very rare
elsewhere, though it has been tried with '
success. The result in this case wiilbe )
anxiously looked for, not only by the
friends of the patient, but by the scien- I
tifle world generally.
Mr. John Thompson, an old and val
ued citizen of Fort Gaines, died on the
3th inst,, of pneumonia.

The Consul at Santiago de Cuba un
der date of January 3d, writes to the
Secretary of State that political affairs
in that Consular district is in a most
deplorable condition. The assassina
tion at Bayamo of the citizens sent from
that eity by order of Count Vailamaseda
was nothing more than what is daily
perpetrated.
It is well known that Vailamaseda
aspires to the position of Captain-Gene
ral of the island, and in order to in
crease his popularity among the blood
craving Cataliaus, who are operating in
his behalf, both iu the island aud in
Spain, gives imperative orders to make
this a war of extermination; and we
daily learn of peaceful citizens, residing
in the country, being assassinated by
tne merciless bpamsu troops. mese
orders are probably being carried to an
extreme, from the fact that those com
manding such troops are constantly
supplying some Cuban produce dealers
of this city, and whose object is to sack
the country and forward to their agents
such portions of the crops as may fall
into their hands. The planters are per
secuted to such a degree as to be com
pelled to flee from their estates, whose
i crops are immediately sequestered and
appropriated to private purposes.
Little credit can be placed upon the
Spanish press, being . a Government
organ, which maintains that the insur
rection is finished in this department,
which is far from the truth. The insur
rection continues in full force and fre
quent encounters take place, as is seen
Dy me rixquent arrivals of wounded
Spanish soldiers. The Cubans being
better armed and disciplined than for
merly, in many cases take the offensive,
and having had their numbers increased
by desertions from the Spanish troops,
who find it impossible to endure the cli
mate. It is estimated that 50 per cent,
of the Spanish volunteers, from sick
ness, are put hors de combat. The hos
pitals are full to overflowing. It is im
possible for any force Spain can send to
exterminate the rebel force, owing to
the climate and topography of country,
while both contending parties destroy
every vestige of agriculture.

The Market,—During the week pri
ces have declined jc. in this market,
and in Liverpool Middling Uplands is
jd. an,} Orleans l-16d. lower The
continued large receipts have caused
the decline here, and the general im
pression now is that the crop will ex-;
ceed 2J millions. In order to reach j
that figure, we must have an excess
over last year of 25 per cent, from now
on, and 150,000 bales overland.
Bombay.—The Liverpool circulars of
February Ist generally reduce their esti
mates of the quantity of cotton to be
received in Europe in 1870. It is thought
that the crop might be larger, but as the
amount afloat on 31s! of December was
less than at that date in 1868, and some
considerable shipments might be delay
ed until after the Monsoon,it is not pro b
able that the import in 1870 will exceed
that of 1869. Finlay, Clark & Cos. tele
graph the shipments for first week in
February at 5,000 for Great Britain and
1,000 for the Continent.
Receipts and Exports.—The re.
ceipts this week have been 94,624 bales,
against 73,432 bales the corresponding
week last year, and the foreign exports
62,768 bales, against 60,425 bales In
1869. The totals, so far this year, can
be seen in the tables given above. The

TO THE PLANTERS
O F
GEORGIA, ALABAMA and FLORIDA.
HAVING- observed the advantages accruing to Planters from the use of THE BEST CON
CENTRATED FERTILIZERS,, and becoming convinced that it was impossible to obtain
the best results, or realize the highest profits from planting without a liberal use of these
Manures, I determined to place myself in a position to supply the Planters with an article ot
the very best description, and have made arrangements with a Manufacturer,of the highest
reputation, for a supply of
DUNHAM’S SOLUBLE GUANO!
WARRANTED EQUAL to any FERTILIZER ever offered iu the market.
Prof. Shepard, State Chemist of South Carolina, to whom a sample was submitted for Anal
ysis, sent the following certificate:
“The result of my analysis of the “DUNHAM SOLUBLE GUANO” proves It to be a Finer
class Fertilizer, well adapted to Cotton and Corn Crops.”
This Fertilizer has a very large per centage of Solulile Phosphoric Acid
and Ammonia, the two elements most necessary to Vegetable growth. It is
manufactured from materials containing those ingredients in the largest ratio,
compounded in the proportions Yfhich experience has proved will promote in the
highest degree the growth of the crop to which it is applied, and the permanent
fertility of the soil.
Besides the above, I offer sale the following list of Fertilizers, all warranted

Also, it is known that worms exist in the hu

* Thin hair is thick

But such as remain can bo saved for

of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi.

Bull’s Worm Destroyer.
To my United States and
World-wide Readers.
1 have received many testimonials from pro
lesßluualand medical meu.aa my alinanaosand
various publications have shown, all of which
are genuine. The following letter from a
highly educated and popular physician In
Georgia, Is certainly one ol the most sensible
communications 1 bave ever received. Dr Clem
ent knows exactly what he speaks of, and his
testimony deserves to bo written iu letters ut
gold. Hear what the Doctor says ol BULL'S

I)r. John Bull—Dear Sir—l have recent],
givenyour “Worm Destroyer” several trial#
and find It wonderfully efficacious. It has n„t
failed In a single instance to have the wlsheu
for etfect. lam doing a pretty large country
praetlce, and have daily use for some arvicto ,n
tne kind.
I am free to confess that I know of no remedy
recommended by the ablest authors so certain
and speedy lu Us efleets. On the contrary they
arc uncertain in the extreme. My objeot in
writing you Is to find out upon what terms f oan
get the medicine directly from you. It I can
got It upon easy terms, I shall use a greatdeal
of it. lam aware that the use of such article#
Is contrary to the teachings and practice oi n
great majority of the regular line of M. U'#
but 1 see no just causo or good Bense in ,il#l
carding a remedy which we know to be effi
cient, simply because we may be ignorant ut
Its combination. For my own part, i shall
make it a rule to use r.ll and any moans to all
leviate suffering humanity which 1 may be
able to command not hesitating because
someone more ingonious than myself maj
have learned its effects first, and secured the
solo right to secure that knowledge. However,
I am by no means an advocate or support, !
of the thousands of worthless nostrums that
flood the oountry, that purport to ouro all mu li
ner of disease to which human llosh Is hell.
Please reply soon, and Inform me of your bi ll
terms.
