Ih-jatch and made arrangements with
Captain Whiting for tho surrender
nine o'clock on Tueaday morning. H
Tint waa ret < med later in the day l
Captain Whiling. Tho Intercourse
pf tho most courteous character.
On Yuc day tho weather waa hi
nnJ clear. The only spectators of tho
■ ■«ne about to lake place were on th
Dispatch nod La Favorita and somo
ragged and dirty Cubans, in fishing

At lmlf |cut eight tho Gey cam
fn.m the in Favorita to the Virginias,
containing the oarsmen and a single offi
,vr. As tin' l itter stepped on dock apetty
oSicer and half a dozen men who hod
tool watch on the Virginius during tho
night, went over the side and remaiue ’
in a dingy uwniting orders.
Punctually, as the bells on tho Dispatch
struck for nine, and heforo the echo had
ilied away, the American flag flea to the
flagstaff of the Virginius, and at tho same
moment a boat containing Captain Whit
ing and Lieutenant Mariax put away from
th.- Dispatch,
As they ascended the accommodation
lijitroftho Virginius, a singlo man on
deck who proved to bo Senor do La Caina
ra sdvanoed and made a courteous salu
taticn. Tho officers then read Shcir ro
(pectivo instructions and Capt. do La
Camara remarked that in obedience to
the requirements of his Government he
had the honor to turn over tho steamer
Virginius to tho Amcricrn authorities,
Cant, Whiting accepted, and ascertain
ing that a receipt would bo a:ceptablo,
gave one. A word or two more civilly
spoken and the Spaniard stopped over
the side, signaled his oarsmen and in
fen minutes was again upon tho deck of
his own rossc), having discharged with
becoming dignity the unpleasant duty
imposed upon him by his government.
The ongines of tho Virginius wore
found to bo in bad condition, and she had
te be towed to oca by tho Dispatch.
Doth vessels loft tho harbor at 3 r. m
the Spanish flag being displayed by tho
fort os they passed. At 8 r. sr. they were
■net by the naval tug Fortuno. Steam
was subsequently got up on tho Virgin
ius. and she. with tho Dispatch went to
Tortugns, where they met the Ossipeo
and coal schooner.
Provisions will bo transferred from tho
Oifipeo to tho Virginius, and whatever
ceftl may bo neces.i.iry will bo supplied
by tho schooner. When supplied with
provisions nnd coal, tho Virginius will
probably bo aont to a Northern port.
Washington and Norfolk are mentioned
among tho prize officers, much to tho dis
appointment of somo of tho officers.
The federal courts aro now anxiously
looking out for her nrrivnl. Sho will not
niter tho liarbor of Key West at nil—
express orders to that effect having been
itceived from Washington.
The Fortuno proceeded to Key West,
wlioro sho arrived nt 4 o’clock this evo-
ning with a dispatch to Admiral Scott,
giving a full account of the surrender.
Tho officers and crows of tho Dispatch
and LnFnvorita. member.! of tho prizo
crows uud a correspondent of tho Tri
bune were the only witnessess of the sur
render. Not a singlo person appeared on
! . ..ud u.it :'ii inhabitant of the
town of iiahia Honda or tho surrounding
country felt sufficient interest in tho pro
ceedings to walk or sail to tho scene.
Some Americans presented themselves at
the iTtranee of tho harbor in a chartered
vc. iiel, but not being provided with clear
ance papers and passports wore stopped
by a boat from tho fort in several at
tempts enter the harbor, and finally with
drew without witnessing tho surreuder.

Mr. Boutwetl remarked that l,o did not
propose to go into any extended remarks
at this time. Ho would state, however,
that he favored neither contraction nor
expansion. Tho former would bring the
business interests of the country to a
stand, would diminish tho revenues and
render taxation inevitable. The latter
would postpone the day of specie pay
ment, and ho did not think it wise to
nild to tho return of a currency of tho
character wo now possessed. He viewed
with apprehension any attempt to secure
immediate specie payments.
Morton said he recognized the fact
that wo must come to specie payments at
last; but now it was not practicable.
Ho favored a slight inflation.

The Cincinnati Commercial is respon

immense Williams:
Ay. ay,” said a distinguished lawyer
the other day, in speaking about Grant’s
nomination to the Chief justiceship, “if
were to compare Williams with the
great men who have filled the office of
Chief Justice, we would have to use lan
guage like that of Argylc to Walpole.
On one occasion Walpole met tlio Duke
Argyle leaving the royal palace, step
ping as high as a blind horse and flop-
■ ling around like a mad porpoise. ‘Why,
Duke, yon seem excited,* said Valpole.
'Yes, sir,* said tho Duke, 'X am; the
King has insulted me.’ ‘Oh,’ replied
Walpole, ‘never mind that; the King
has often l-icked me.’ ‘Yes, sir,’ cried
the haughty clansman, in a towering
rage; ‘but I would have you understand,
sir, that there is an infinite difference be
tween an Argyle and a Walpole.’ “And
>, said our distinguished lawyer, “would
be compelled to speak of Williams in
comparison with John Marshall and his
successors.”

Dr. B. T*. Pierce :
Dear Sir—My wife, last year at this
time, was confined to her bed with chronic
liver disease. I had one of the best doc

when I came upon some of your medicine.
I bought one bottle and commenced giv
ing it. She then weighed 82 pounds;
now she weighs 140 pounds and is robust
nrol hearty. She has taken eight bottles
in all, so you see I am au advocate for
your medicines. IYai. Meazel.

PCRB A3TD SWEET
COD LIVER OIL.
T HIS Oil is manufactured by us on the sea
shore with the greatest care, from fresh
healthy Livers of the Cod only, without the aid
of any chemicals, by the simplest possible process
and lowest temperature, by which the Oil can be
separated from the cells of the livers. It is nearly
devoid tf color, odor, and flavor, haring only r
bland, fish-like,and to most persons, not unpleas
ant taste. U is so sweet and pure that it can b
retained by the stomach when other kinds fail;
and patients soon become to like it
The secret of making good Cod Liver Oil lies
the proper application of the proper degree
heat; too much or too little will seriously injure
the quality. Great attention to cleanliness is also
absolutely necessary to produce sweet Cod Liv
Oil. The rancid oil generally found in market
the product of manufacturers who are careless
about these matters.

Fertilizing Compound!
This fertilizer is again offered to the
public in its original purity. The stand
ard has been kept uj* in every respect
and its intrinsic value has again been
demonstrated during tho past summer.
It is recommended, because:
“It is permanent in its effects in return
ing to the soil tho fertilizing ingredients
taken from it by cxcc3sivo cropping.
“It givos to cotton the food necessary
to sustain life while fruiting, therefore,
what is called rmt seldom occurs wlicro
this fertilizer is used.
“It i3 tho best restorer of worn out
lands known to agricultural chemistry.
“Its effects aro immediate in the pro
duction of large returns the first season.
“It is good for all crops, on any soil,
being pure unadulterated plant-food.
“It is as good as the best, and is tho
least expensive of any known good fertil
izer.
“It is manufactured at the South .and
almost entirely of Southern material.
“It utilizes the ammonia found on
every farm which is the mo3t expensive
part of all complete fertilizers.”
We subjoin a few of the many certifi
cates in our possession, as to its value,
from well known parties who bavo used
it, and to whom we would refer.

Messrs, llogers & Leman, Macon, Ga. :
Gents : I have bought of your agent. Captain
V. L. Hopson, ono car load of tlio Logan Fertili
zer, and used it this spring on my different farms.
I am well pleased with it and shall use it another
year in preference to any other kind. I also used
-the pure Peruvian Guano and other standard
fertilizers, and by actual comparison, I am satis
fied the Logan is the best, nnd at much less cost.
Yours respectfully, IL W. DALL1S. Sr.
Coweta County, Ga., Septcml»cr is, 1S73
Messrs, llogers cC* Leman, Macon, Ga.:
Gents: The Logan Fertilizer bought of your
agent, V. L. Hops on, I manipulated with cotton
seed at the rate of one of the fertilizing compound
to two of cotton seed. Tills compost was applied
to cotton at tho rate of 200 to 300 pounds per Jicre.
I used it beside of Reese’s Sol. Pacific, and give
yours the preference, and I shall use it exclusive
ly in future.
My brother applied the Logan to both corn and
cotton, and is well pleased with the result.
Yours truly, L. C. DAVIS.
Dooly County, Ga., August 18,3873.
Messrs. Rogers & Leman, Macon, Ga.:
Gentlemen : I am fully satisfied with the Lo
gan Fertilizer. It beats stable manure alone, and
is by actual count of bolls, at least 200 per cent,
ahead of ray unmanured cotton. There i.s K-n.s
rust where the Logan was used than whore fer
tilized by stablo manure. Yours respectfully,
B. M. THOMAS.
Vienna, Dooly County, Ga., Sept. 1,1S73.
Messrs. Rogers & Leman, Macon, Ga.:
Gents : I promised to write you about the Lo
gan Fertilizer I bought of you. I now can safely
nay, that up to this time, it is ahead of any I have
ever used. It is as good agr.in us the Soluble Pa
cific I used last year. I will use it altogether for
the future. Respectfully,
JOHN COLLIER.

seem* to be well fruited. I am well pleased with
it. When the crop is gathered I will write you
fully. Yours respectfully,

Messrs. Rogers <b Leman, Macon, Ga.:
Gents : I bought of your agent 2000 pounds
of the Logan Fertilizer, composted it as formula
directs, and used it with other standanl fertiliz
ers. It has proved equally as good as the others,
at about one-third of the cost, and I would ad- •
vise planters generally to give it a trial.
Yours truly, J. M. PONDER.

Messrs. Rogers & Leman, Macon, Ga.:
Gents : I composted tho Logan Compound I
night from you, and put it on cotton on gray
land, and used it ou my farm at a cost of $1
per acre. Ialwusedtoo Pendleton Compound
and the English Stonewall. The Logan has proved
as good as either of the others. I am much pleased
with it. The cotton has fruited well and lias
retained its fruit. Very little rust is observable
where the Logan is used and the weight of lint in
proportion to seed cotton is remarkable, being
much in excess of what is usual. I found it equal
ly good on corn and potatoes. The Logan is an
excellent fertilizer, anu I can honestly rfccommeiul
its use generally. Yours respectfully,
6 J. L. ADDER-TON.

Rev. Robert Logan:
Dear Sib: I composted 400 pounds each o

Though the worm has stripped the cotton bare o

four acres. Tne season has not been a favorable
one in this section. Yours truly,
