>Vho Received the Reward ’ Macon, Ga., October fi, 1869. To the Editor of the Journal and Metaenger: Sip. —The following was presented to om of the proprietors of the Macon Daily Tele (fraph for insertion, who politely declined to touch it, fearful of incurring the displeasuri of someone. It will be recollected that Gov eipor Bullock offered a reward of five hun dred dollars for the arrest of one Alfred Hoy, who was charged with the crime of murder, in Bibb county. There were some ineffec tual attempts made by a few of the City Po lice to arrest Hoy, incurring expenses for liorse-hire to the amount of thirty-seven dollars, which was promptly paid by the Ordinary of Bibb county. It will be seen by appended documents, which were ex hibited to his Excellency before the reward was paid, that the Sheriff of Bibb county made, the arrest, without the aid or assist ance of any one. Hoy’s counsel at the trial assorted that Hoy was on his way to Macon to give him self up to the civil authorities, when lie was arrested by the Sheriff of Bibb county. The Sheriff dicl not receive the reward. Hoy did not receive the reward. The counsel for the accused did not receive the reward. Who received it ? Was the reward paid to par ticular friends, or lias the Executive of the State of Georgia been imposed upon in this transaction ? The following documents are original, and under the seal of the Superior Court of the Macon circuit, all of which were exhibited • to his Excellency before the fire hundred dol lars reward tras paid.

Cole, Judge S. C. Jl. C. »< ♦ »-< ■ The Senate and Ex-I’residcnt .Jolt n son. Mr. Forney’s Philadelphia Press contains the following candid and refreshing an nouncement in reference to what the Senate of the United States will do in case Ex President Johnson is elected Senator from Tennessee : At Andrew Johnson will probably receive bis rredantlulaa I . -S. k-nator, Sir-sin. Stokes, Brown low, Maynard and Etherid:: freely declare that tlie Ben h i will refuse to admit Mr .Johnson, under asp cl lie couhtrurlion of the ciauao of the Consti tution which declares that body to be the exclu sive judg” ~f tl,c qnalifii .itions of those elected to it. The disqualification la none other than “dis loyalty,'’and the allegation w ill be substantiated sufficiently fur the immediate, purpose, by tlia evi dence brought o.it on the Irial for impeachment. It would not. surprise anybody who rc memlx r.s the incidents of the impeachment trial, if the prediction of Stokes, Maynard, Brownlow and Etheridge, were fulfilled. The only thing that will prevent it is the egregious folly of such an act, and the cer tainty that Andrew Johnson, excluded from his seat for such a cause, would damage the Radical party more than a thousand Andrew Johnsons allowed to take their seats with out a question The Senate which refused to admit Mr. Thomas, of Maryland, because he gave lii.i ti, who was in the army of Northern Virginia, SIOO to buy clothing and food when lie needed them, is fully capable of excluding Mr. Johnson for “disloyalty.” To exclude him on charges of which he was acquitted by themselves, and thus try him twice on the same indictment, would be worthy of the “High Court,” and elevate them to a higher pinnacle of infamy than they have ever attained even in the estima tion of those who admire them least. ill .M s«f (J t*n i* I sil Ttiombti.

FORMERLY ADJUTANT GENERAL OF THE ARMIES OF THE CONFEDERATE STATES. Fr ,m the New Orleans Picayune. 28tli. New Orleans. August 2, 1869. j Hen. S. Cooper, Alrrondria, la.: Dear Sib: —You will please excuse the lib- | Tty which I take in trespassing ui>ou your , valuable time. I have recently been preparing for the Southern Historical Society, a paper upon the losses of the Confederate army, from battle, wounds, and disease, during the civil war 1861-5. The following general results >f my investigation are most resjiectfully submitted to you for examination and crit icism: KILLED, WOUNDED AND PRISONERS OF Till*. CON FEDERATE ARMY DURING THE WAR, 18(51-5. Killed. Wounded. Prisoners. 1861 1,315 4,054 h»,773 !**;■; is, OH:; 68,659 4X,:.00 18(53 11,8711 51,313 71,211 1864-5 32,000 70,000 80,000 Total 53,773 194,016 -»2,288 If the deaths from disease be added, the sum total will represent the entire loss.

A., 1861-02 55,476 Total wounded in C. 8. A., lsdl-2 73,713 “ prisoners “ 1801-2 51,072 “ discharged “ 1851-2 10,910 Total wounded, prisoners and discharged in 1801-2 140,725 If it be fair to assume that the total mor tality of 1863-4 was fullv equal ty iNoJ, men me tpi-ui ui an is in me Confeder ate Army 18t»l-5 was at least 160.000, exclu sive of the deaths iu Northern prisons, which would swell the number to n- r 185,- 000; and if the deaths amongst the dis charged for wounds and diseases, and amongst the sick and wounded on furlough, be added, the grand total of deaths in the Confederate Army during the entire war, did not full far short of 200.000. According to this calculation the deaths from disease were about three times as nu merous as those resulting from the c isualties of battle. The available Confederate force capable of active service in the field did not. during the entire war, exceed six hundred thousand (600,000) men. Os this number not more than four hundred thousand (400,OuO) were enrolled at any one time; and the Confeder ate States never hail in the field more than two hundred thousand (200,000) men capable of bearing arms, at any one time, exclusive of sick, wounded and disabled. If the preceding calculation be correct, we have the following figures illustrating the losses of the Confederate armies during the war: Confederate forces aetivclv engaged, 18151-5, 600,000 Total death* In C. 8. A.. 200,000 bosses of C. 8. A. in prisoners, 18151-5, which may be considered as total losses, on account of the policy of non-exchange by the l T nited Slates 200,000 bosses of C. 8. A. by discharges, disability mid desertion 100,000 If this calculation, which is given only as mi approximation, be correct, one-third of all the men actively engaged on the Confed erate side were either killed outright upon the Held or died of disease and wounds; another third of the entire nuniher were captured and held for an indefinite period iu Northern prisons; and of the remaining 41X1,000, at least one-half were lost to tin service by discharges aud desertion. At the close of tlie war the available force of the Confederate States numbered scarcely 100,000 effective men. The resolution, unsurpassed bravery and skill with which the Confederate leaders con ducted this contest, is shown by t-lie fact that out of 000,000 men iu the field about 500,000 were lost to the service. At the close of the war the 100,000 Con federates were opposed to one million (1,000,000) Federal troops. Your approval or disapproval of this cal culation is most respectfully solicited. The distinguished ability with which you discharged the responsible and arduous du ties of Adjutant General of the Confederate army (nullifies you, above every other officer of the late Confederate States, to decide how far such calculations may approach to ac curacy. With great respect and the highest esteem, I have tlie honor to be, your obedient ser vant, Joseph Jones, M. ]>., Secretary and Treasurer Southern Historical Society, Professor Chemistry, .Medical Department University of Louisiana. Near Alexandria, Virginia, I August 29, 18ti9. j Joseph Jones, Secretary anil Treasurer iif the Southern Ilistorical Society, Ne.tr Orleans, hmisiana : Dear Sir — I have had the honor to re ceive your kind und interesting letter of the 2d inst., and beg you will accept my best thanks for the same. I have closely examined your several state ments in respect to the Confederate military forces during the late war, as well ms the casualties incident thereto, and I have come to the conclusion, from my general recollection, w hich those statements have served to en lighten, that they must be regarded as near ly critically correct. Most of the returns from which you most probably have derived your information, must have passed through the tiles of my office in the Confederacy, and if reference could be made to all the records of that office, they would, I have no doubt, enable von to give nearly a complete history of the strength and operations of our armies in detail. The files of that office which could best afford this information, were carefully boxed up, and taken on our retreat from Richmond to Charlotte, N. C., where they were unfortunately finally captured, and, as I learn, are now in Washington, where they | are properly arranged iua separate building, with other records appertaining to the Con federaev. 1 presume that by proper man-j agement, reference might be hail to thorn. Indeed, I had at one time contemplat 'd to make an effort to renew my acquaintance with the records by a personal application to the authorities in Washington, but 1 finally abandoned the idea. It would afford me much pleasnrse to fur nish you with the information in the tabular form you have suggested, but it would be quite'impossible for me to do this without reference to those records. I can only state from general recollection that during the two last years of the war, the monthly re turns of our armies received at my office ex hibited the present active force in the field nearly ouo-lialf leas than the returns them selves actually called tor. on account of ab sentees by sickness, extra duty, furloughs, desertions, and other casualties incident to a campaign life. These returns were kept with great secresv, in order to prevent the enemy from becoming aoequainted with our weakness. Another disadvantage was also felt m the limited number of our suitable weapons of war, and 1 believe it will be found, cm examination, that the most ap proved and tried arms in the hands of our troops were captured from the enemy in battle. These, and many other incidents of a like nature, if brought to light, would exhibit the greatest disparity between two opposing forces. If not alike ill the mmilx'i of troops, us you have exhibited in your tables, at least of sufficient importance to satisfy every un pv ‘judiced mind that we were constantly la boring. throughout the contest, under every possible disadvantage. T perceive by the printed prospectus of tlie Southern Historical Society, which you were so kind a* to send me, that time must be given in collecting the necessary facts which are to be the basis of this important work, before it shall be prepared and given to the public. To this end, it will be my endeavor to contribute, from time to time, such facts ns I may lie enabled to collect, and as may be deemed of consequence by the Society. With great respect, I have the honor to be, your obedient servant, | ' S. Cooper. —The engineers of the Memphis and El Paso Railroad have commenced operations at San Diego.

Knoxville, Tens., August 13, 1869. Gentlemen ■ I have no hesitancy In saving that, after a careful examination of the Norway Oats, made whil't "rowing in the field, and since harvested, I am satisfied that their introduction w ill be attended with ("reat benefit to our fanners. The increase in tlie yield i- fully 100 percent, over the other varieties, and the quality is also better. The great strength of the straw preventing, to a great extent, lodging, especially adapts these oats to this latitude where severe wind storms are not unusual during harvest season Yours, W. P.

Tl»e following two letters are from one of the moat prominent and widely known planters in the South web*‘ Chattanooga, Texu., July 31, 1869. D. W RtumdeU: , ~ , . . . , , Dear Bir—About tlie first of February last I ordered from your agents in New \ ork five bushels ot your Norway Oats. I received them about the first of February, aud sowed them immediately on five acres of Tennessee River land, and cut them about the fifteenth of July. I think when thrashed I shall have about one hundred aud forty bushels to the acre. The average height of the oats was over five feut 6ix inches. The. heads will average from eighteen to twentv-two inches in length, with from five to six hundred to tbo head. The represent at ions in your circular of hist year fall far below my crop of tills year, in fact, they surpass anything on this Continent, and arc well adapted to this climate aud soil. I am satisfied they are an improvement of vast importance to the country. Very respectfully, etc., JXO. L. DIVINE. SECOND LETTER. Chattanooga, Tenn., August 8, 1860. D. Ti'. Rnmxdell: Deak Bir—Since my last I have thrashed my crop, they have turned out something more than owe hun dred and fifty busltelt of oats to the acre. 1 tried a dozen aheafs taken as they come from the stack; the yield was four busheh and one pint to the dozen or orer one-fourth bushel* to the sheaf Owing to the hard weather one-third of my oats froze out. We have hid the longest and most disastrous drought we ever had in this country, having no rain, scarcely, since May first. If we had hud an ordinary season I would undoubtedly made tioo humped bushels per orre. If I live, next season. 1 will give your oats a fair ted. I do not write this lor advei Using or publication as I have none for sale; what 1 spare will be gratuitions, to mv fiends. I believe 1 can excel anything of the oat kind In the world with this seed next year. Respectfully, yours, JNO. L. DIVINE. PERFECTLY SATISFIED. M. Ferguson, C’ratus Creek, N. 0.. writes. August 12, 1809: The season here has been most unfavorable for oats, and I put them ou poor ground I have not thrashed them yet, but it is sufficient to say lain perfectly satisfied with the Norway Oats. I find there is from three to four times as many kernels ou tlie heads of Norway* as there are on the other varieties ffe generally sow in tlie fall season. Will it do to sow the»e in the fall ? Note—We never have known of their being sown iu the fall, but we can see uo reason why they will not do well aud even better in some sections. ADAPTED TO THE SOUTH. S. H. Harris, Knoxville, Tenn., writes, August 2, 1869 : I have just harvested seventeen acres of your Norway Oats and have them now in barn. I have been a farmer for thirty-five years, during which time I have tested a great many nineties of oats, ami 1 can truly say that I have never seen any out in tlie South that will compete with yours ill productiveness and stout heavy growth. I consider them peculiarly adapted to the soil of the’South. lam satisfied that they will yield at leist double tiiat of any other variety known to us, on tlie same soil and with the same culture. A PROMINENT MISSISSIPPI PLANTER ENDORSES THEM. Captain H. A. Rice, widely known in the South, says : 1 sowed one bushel of Norway Oats on about three fourths of an acre. They came up ami grew finely In fact, the prospect for seventy-five bushels from the sowing was very flattering, until they began to head out, when the rats made an attack upon them, and despite all my attempts to route them they des troyed nil except n stripe of about two feet around the edge of the patch, which I harvested, making only a little ovi r four bushels. I have several heads over eighteen inches in length with stalks over five feet high. lam satisfied that the heads would average over twelve inches. The stalks were nearly as large as my little finger, and very succulent, which I think was one cause of the ruts oeingso destructive. Notwithstanding my misfortune I am fully convinced that the Norway Oats arc as good ns they are rep sented to be by Mr. Rumsdcll. I saw no sign of rust. I shall endeavor to select a more suitable place to sow them next year, and not sow them so thick. I noticed a few grains that were not so much crowded, and I counted as high as fifty-four stalks from a single grain. Macon, Miss., August 16, 1869. Louisan a, Mo., August 7, 1969. Tin* season with us has been too wet for oats. The Nor ways have been a success. The heavy rains heat down the common oats so they had to be mowed, while the Norway-stood erect, not asinglc straw having fallen or lodged. 1 am too well pleased with them to sell a kernel, even at ten dollars a bushel, which I could readily do. 1 shall sow' all I have another year. One of my neighbors sow ed seven grains on verv rich land and harvested one quart. ARTHUR A. BLUMF.R. NO HUMBUG ABOUT THEM. Henry Pulenian, Esq., Galesvillc, N. Y., writes, August 16, 18 59: The Norway Oats I had of you no humbug, on the contrary, are all you recommended them to be lasi year. 1 sowed on clay loam soil, and can beat all my neighbors about here for oats of any kind. No farmer can afford to raise* any other kind if he can got these even at ten dollars per bushel. CARD FROM PROFESSOR FRANCIS M. GRACE. East Tens. University, August 6, 18(59 I take pleasure in certifying that I witnessed on lust Tuesday the operation or tbrimliinjr tlie crop of Ramsdell Norway Outs, produced on one acre of tlie farm adjacent to tlie University, and known as the Agricultural College Farm, and that the yield far exceeded anything which I have ever known in the history of Southern agriculture. The land was good njilund and lias not been manured, that iam aware of. for a number of vears. I consider flic seed of the Norw ay Oats as by far the best 1 have, ever known FRANCIS M. GRACE, Professor English Language and Literature, E. T. University. WAKED UP TOO LATE. Jno. Lindsay, Patterson, Pa., August 12, 1869, says : I sowed the bushel of Norway Oats I had of you on one acre of sandy soil, they ripened as soon a-, my common oats, yielding eighty bushels per acre. I only regret I did not buy more seed from you. They are the wonder of all wliosavv them, stalks like rake teeth, and I found three, thousand grains from one seed They have created a great excitement in this section. My seed is all spoken for, and much more will be w anted in this section. Farmers now' say they are no humbug, and are sorry they did not buy last year. They have “waked up too late,” that’s wluit the matter.” Knoxville, August 26, 1960. Messrs. Hough <f* Church: Gentlemes —I certify that I have cultivated for other parties thirty-one acres of the Ramsdell Norway Oats the present season, on ray farm near Concord station in this county. I gave them the name culti vation and the same soil that I gave my black oats. The result lias been* that the Ramsdell Norway Oats yielded more than double the blackouts. The stalks are very large aud strong, the heads yield more than double tlie number of kernels of the ordinary varieties. lam of the opinion that these Oats are well adapted to the soil and climate of the South generally, and that no farmer should fail to raise them, and on their richest bottom land if they choose, as the stalk is sufficiently strong to prevent lodging. 1 hope tb# farmers in this section will not fail to secure at an early day, at least a sufficient amount of seed to produce seed for sowing their crop of 1871. I shall cultivate no other variety of oats on my firm. 1 (i. W. MABRY. “THE WAY TO HEAVEN IS OPEN TO ALL.” Bbi.ma, Ala., July 26, 1869. D. W. Uamsdell <fc Cos: Dbak Sirs:— In reference to those Norway Oats, we prepared one acre to suit-ourselves in a field of sixty acres of different kinds of oata, and we have cut of eight thousand pounds of Norway Oats and straw. It is now stacked up and we can’t tell what the yield will be until thrashed. We enclose a piece of tlie butt or lower end of one of the stalks. They grew six feet high on an average, with broad leaves • resembling corn blades and heads about one foot long. Wc had an excellent season for oats and tin crops, but the Norway* were much the best. We propose to show what we do to all our farmers who wish to see, and then* let them think and act for themselves The mv tt/ to Heaven is open to all the world . but very few take the trouble to steer by that compass, and it is so with fanners. We have at this time a splendid crop of cotton; our neighbors have very poor indifferent ones, but if it suits them, being none of our business, we shall try not to lose much sleep over it. Yours truly, < t EC). (). BA KER & CO. FORTY-FIVE BUSHELS FROM ONE-HALF BUSHEL OF SEED. Newburgh, Md., July 29, 1869. Gentlemen : I purchased half a bushel of your Norway Oats from Jones A Clark, New York. They were injured by the drought to a considerable extent, but I find on measuring that l have a yield of forty-live bushels from the half bushel of seed. They ripen about the same time as the common oat and are much heavier. Very respectfully yours, P. A. L. CONTEK. FROM COLONEL JAMES M. TOOLE, Well known throughout the Sout-liwest. Knoxville, East Tenn., August 2,1869. Mr. 1). W. Ramsdell: Sir: Having for the past thirty years of my life watched with interest the growth and prosperity of the country in the development of new inventions, new appliances, and consequently increasing sources of supply, I could not but desire an opportunity to test the merits of the Gray Norway Oats, originated and introduced by your perseverance anil now practically illustrated by wondering thousands, and which must soon add millions yearly to the value of this important product; all the result of placing one grain in a rich and secluded spot iu your garden on the 2d of May, 1864. Truly wc live in a great country and in no common age. I procured several bushels of this seed last year, and gave them out to gentlemen to sow for me with a view of testing them in our soil and climate, aud while growing and harvesting, they have been the wonder and admiration of all who have seen them. They were sown 15t!i to 20th of March, and the yield is three times greater than that of other oats in the same land. Parties who have not hesitated to pronounce them a humbug are now willing to accord to them all you claim. They over : come a difficulty in tlie production of small grains in this country on o;; v rich lands, being capable of the highest culture on deepest soil, hy their great devcloment of strength in stinks to summit a cone?pond ing length and weight of heads. Many new aud good varieties have been introduce (1 into the South but have not the strength of stock to support them and lodge or foil before the grain rnatiin a. Jn saying to you that I believe that the Ramsdell Norway Gray Oats is to work still more astonishing results, und occupy a proud and envious place in the prosperity of our extended country, I say no more than what I . believe the future will attest. I wish to sow two or three hundred acres of them next year. Respectfully, yours, JAMES M. TOOLE. THANKS IN THE NAME OF THE FARMERS OF EAST TEN NESSEE. I). W. Jlarnttdcll : Dkak Sjr—l desire to give you a brief account of the success of the Norway Oats in this section First, however, allow me to thank you most heartily, in the name of the farmers of Fast Tennessee, a few of whom have become practically acquainted with your Oats this season through the agency of Dr. J. P. Groves, Ralph Church, Esq., and myself, for your perseverance in propagating and developing ' their wonderful merits. I became interested with l3r. Greves last spring in Wi<* introduction of forty five bushels in the vicinity of Knoxville. I confess I had some misgivings as to their success South, notwithstanding their superior qualities over all other varieties seemed to be thoroughly established in . , the North, for I had observed some doubts expressed by members of the New York Farmers* Club as to their being grown successfully in the South. In order, however to make a full and fair test Os what they would do in our climate and soil, we concluded to scatter them among a number of planters in different localities and on different kinds of land.-, lienee lam enabled to speak of their success on a variety of soil?, having furnished seed to twelve planters In this and adjoining counties. The various crops having now been harvested, and having seen a large portion of them since and before the harvest ing, I am prepared to say Unit the Norway Oats have proved an eminent success, altogether exceeding my expectations, and that, in mv opinion, they possess all the merits you claim for them, and that they are admirably adapted to the soil and climate of this section.

A VOICE FROM KENTUCKY. Hexkvviixe, Kt., August 11, '69. I sowed broadcast on sandy soil, red clay sub-soil. Ido not think more than one-half of the seed came up, and one-half of these froze out in the successive hard freezes about the last of February. Those that survived had a luxuriant growth. There was more stalks from one seed than I ever saw w iili any other kind, and, what was most surprising, all came to maturity. The stalks are large at the ground and gradually taper up to the head, which is verv heavy. All things considered, 1 think the vield will be enormously large. Respectfully yours, J. C. SNEED. Those who put in this Seed the coming season will reap a rich harvest, in the sale of their crops for seeding purposes, ft will bring a high price for some years to come, llie supply is limited, and those wishing Seed should order at once.
