Mr. Gaskill, having desired a hearing be fore the council, it was granted. He made some statements in regard to a piece of land which the city claims for a street, he having purchased the land from Mr. Kile. The land was purchased sijme years ago by Mr. Kile, as agent for the city for the purpose of open ing Houston street to Peacbtree. Mr. Gaskill endeavored to show that the titles he held to the land was perfectly valid, and be appealed to the council not to interfere with it, as he had made arrangements for erecting upon it a building which will be an ornament to the city. ’ . The Mayor expressed the opinion that the city could only control the land through the power granted oy the Legislu’ure to open a new street. Councilman Adair suggested that all the pa pers and letters connected with tne affair be laid before the council tor exainiuatiifn. Wood d.d not regard the opeaiugxit the street as important to the city. RicoarCsou thought it important that it be kept open, as there is at present no Conve nient w-y ot getting Irom Peacbtree to Hous ton street. Wiiiilord thought the ciiy had no right or title to it, and w.is nut worth me money it would probably cost- The city Solicitor thought all impediments could be removed by alluwii g Mr. Ga k. 11 to g> on wiifa li.s building, and it it be proven,that tue land belongs really to the city, Mr. Gas kill then pity of the land. The qi.eslrCn was sedlleo by the following resolution. Resolved ITbat the-Mayor and council with draw all opposition to ihe improvement of the lot lying between Peacbtree street and Pryor street, and between Pe old Academy and Gas kill’s warehouse, by Mr. Gaskill.

'CONFIDENCE IN PRESIDENT JOHNSON. -The Lynchburg Virginian, in an article upon the uuty of the iS'iuth.-says : “We have been permitted to read a private letter, written by ex Governor Letcher, now at his home in L xington, to.a frieud in this city, presenting almost identically the same views. The Governor bid an interview with President Johnson, with which be was much pleased, the tendency of which was that we have only to recogn ze the existing state of affairs, regard slavery as dead, and sustain the Government, and the President will do all for the South that we could expect. He is not vindictive towards us, as some have suppose 1 ; and will it sustain ed,.resist to the last, the radical pressure that may be brought against him.” Upon these revelations ot the ex Governor the Virginian remarks : ••Whatever, therefore, may have been our an tecedents or preferences and we can neither blot out the former nor divest ourselves ol the latter, we should m.ke the best ot the existing status, and with quiet dignity conform ourselvis to the new order ot 'hing-i. In this w.,y only can we strengthen the f... ds ot the President, and make him a 1.11 wark against which the surging waves of mad lanatacism may dash in vain. I i North’Alabama, recently, at a meeting in one county, it was resolved : “That we have the highest confidence in his , Excellency, Andrew Joan on,.President of the i United Slates, and we believe he is an instru ment ra s'd up by an ail w.se Providence to vindicate the rights and honor ot the laboring men, and to secure the integrity and glory o this gr. at country, against all its toes, internal and external : and we laud and approve bis c urse, and pledge ourselves to stand by him to the death.” At another meeting, in another county of the same section, was resolved : “That we beg to assure President Johnson that he has many triends tn this State and c unty wb) will sustain him and the policy announced in his proclsm .lions, and in his de-, votion to the Union. 10 the last man and the la-t dollar. Treason must be made odious, a id traitors must be punished.” The Guano Supply.—A recent lecturer on Guauo and the Guano Islands, before the roy al agricultural college, says : “It is now twen ty-two or twenty-ibree years since the first c >p of Guano was mpor -d from the Chinct a Islands, on the coiist of Peru. Those Islands Comprise three rocKs, the joint area of which is under 3 000 statute acres ; and the quantity of guano still upon these rocks is commonly es timated at 15 millions of tons, valued at more than 100 tnillions of money.” His brother had visited the Guano Islands last year and as to the result we have Ihe following statement : “His account of these islands is totally differ ent Irom any 1 have ever yet seen published, for instead of the guano being exhausted in eight or ten years, which most writers assert, he says.that the supply, comparatively sp aking is inexhaustible, the beds ot guano being in many places more than 100 feet thick, and two ot the three principal islands being yet un touched. On climbing the cliffs an innumera ble quantity of skeletons of large marine ani mils were presented to his view, such as those of the seal and walrus or sea-horse, striking up cut of the surface in such quantities that the place oppeared to be completely white ail over. Passing along over the islands he could scarcely take a step without b.s foot break ttg through into a bole in which the guano bird mikesi's nest. These boles extend 5 or 6 yards into the bed of Ihe guano and the birds are continually occupied in fetching fish Irom the sea to feed their young ones. The num ber is so immense that the air seems complete ly alive with them. By this account it seen a that gnano is not all excrementitiniis matter, as w 1 have bitbeitobeen led to suppose, but Consist- of a considerable amount of dreompos ed animal matter, in addition to the excre j merit of birds. It is evident from this brief sketch that the supply of guauo will be at present by 00 means limited.” The St. Louis grain elevator will soon be completed and in operation- This building is 250 feet long, 85 wide, 128 high on th lend side and 172 on the river, arid contains 103 bins, with a capacity of 1,200,000 busbo els. It is expected that 100,000 bushels of grain per day can be handled easily. In ad dition to the ordinary use of an elevator ar rangements are in progress by which 10,000 bushels of grain can be dully sucked for rs shipment or other purposes. SPKlfl A I, NOTICES.
