Dr. Le Conte, the Columbus Enquirer says, is a native Georgian, and a graduate of the Georgia University. Some years after his graduation he was elected to the Professorship of Philoso phy and Chemistry in the same institution.— Subsequently he was chosen to a similar posi tion in the South Carolina University, which po sition he has since filled, ranking amoDg the most scientific men of the day.

These are frightful figures indeed t Editorial Correspondence of the Atlanta lutelllsencer. THB AGKTOOLTUBAt, CONVENTION. Macon, Ga , Dec. 11,1868. No more important event in relation \o the material advancement and prosperity of Georgia, lias occurred iu many years than the meeting of ihe Agricultural and Manufacturing, the Farm ers and the Slate Agricultural Societies now merged and united under the name of the State Agricultural Association of Georgia. The char acter and standing of the delegates, the earnest ness which animated their deliberations, the uni'y of purpose which they manifested, and the entire absence of all the arts which distinguish political conventions, give assurance that the fu ture of old Georgia will be vastly benefited by the work which has been planned and the mea sures taken by the Association on yesterday and to-day. The first 6tcp taken by the three societies above named was to fuse and revive in the per sons all the delegates present, the old State Ag ricultural Association, which in former days was productive of so much good to the State. Soon thereafter David Dickson, of Hancock, the renowned cotton planter, was elected President of the society, as a well deserved tribute to his fame as a practical agri culturist and the benefits which he has conferred upon the whole farming population. Col. B. C. Yancey, of Athens, and six other gentlemen, one from each congressional district, were chosen vice-presidents, and in the absence of Mr. Dick son, C-»l. Yancey, as first vice-president, took the chair and presided over the convention with that ability and dignity which characterize him at all times. Col. Yancey has been the Presi dent of the Cotton Planters’ Association and of the Agricultural and Manufacturing Society, and it is largely due to his efforts and influence that we arc indebted for the present gathering of the representatives of the industrial interests of Georgia. Hon. David W. Lewis, of Hancock, ihe loruier President of the State Agricultural Society, was unanimously elected Secretary of the new society, and it will be universally admit ted that no better choice could have been made. Mr. Lewis’ patriotic services in times past in the cause of agriculture, and the many sacrifices he made to promote the good and efficiency of the society, entitle him to the thanks of every farmer iu Georgia. Hr. James Camak, of Athens, was elected Treasurer. After the appointment of an executive commit tee of fifteen members, composed of leading rep resentatives of all the great industrial interests from every part of the State, and the appoint ment of various st&ndiDg committees, the question of foreign emigration was discussed at length and with much ability. Judge Schley ot Chatham, Mr. B. T. Harris of Putnam, Colonel M C. FuUon of Athens, Colonel D. E. Butler of Morgan, Mr. Reese ot Macon, the presiding offi cer, Colonel Yancey, and others participating in the discussion, all acknowledging the import ance ot a well regulated system for the promo tion of foreign immigration, and the necessity of legislative action to carry the plan into effect. A very able, carefully considered, and elaborate paper on the whole subject, from the pen of Col. F. Schaller, was read by that gentleman, which was so fully approved and commended that the thanks of the body were tendered to Col Schaller, and the paper ordered to be printed among the proceedings of the Association. Colonel Schal- ler’s plan recommends the creation by the Leg islature of an Emigration Bureau with its princi pal office at Savannah, and the appointment of a Chief Commissioner and four Commissioners to reside in Great Britain, the Ger- mauic Confederation, - France, and Italy, respectively, and there promote th« emigra tion to Georgia of the best class of settlers, who will buy our surplus lands, and contribute their enterprise, skill, intelligence, and means, to the development of the now dormant resources of Georgia. These agents must, iu the first in stance, be paid by the State, but the plan pro vides that after some time, when the machinery is put iu motion, the whole system will become self-sustaining and not require the appropriation of a dollar. Probably at a cost ot $10,000, the movement couid be inaugurated, and with an almost certainty of success. Every detail is provided for, every point is guarded, and every recommendation given in clear, precise lan guage, by one fully competent from knowledge and experience to prepare a plan for legislative adoption. A committee was appointed to consider Col. Schaller’8 paper, and memorialise the legislature ou the subject, with the view to the passage of such laws as may be found to be necessary to cany out a good plan of immigration. Another subject of importance was re ferred to a special committee appointed for the purpose, namely, whether wages in money, or a share of the crop, is the most advantageous mode of compensating negro labor, in the in terest of both employer and employed. The committee was specially instructed to consider this subject and present a written report on it at an early day. It was distinctly avowed that the emigration movement is not and was never intended to be antagonistic to the interests and welfare ot the negroes. It is to encourage the immigration of settlers, not mere laborers, that it is proposed, and the larger the-numberof employers becomes the more the interest of the negro laborer is ad vanced and protected. This subject was clearly stated to guard against the misrepresentations which radical demagogues will be sure bo make with a view to the further demoralization of the negroes. It has rarely been my lot to be present at a convention composed of more able, intelligent, and earnest men. In a letter hastily written after the adjournment of the convention, in order to save the mail, it is impossible to do justice to the subject In a inture letter 1 propose to dwell at greater length and with more detail on the proceedings, confident that the readere of the Intelligencer can have nothing more in teresting presented to them, than the views ex pressed during the past two days upon the great subjects for the discussion ot which the Agricul tural Society was convened. The greatest interest is felt in the movement. Large numbers ot new members joined, enrolled their names, and paid their subscription of $2. One member, Mr. Thurston Bloom, handed in a list ot 101 members and a roll of $202, the re sult of a couple of hours’ effort Tbe same in terest sbouldanimate every one in the State. Our success in the future depends on our own exertions, and in no direction can they be turn ed more hope®Uy than to the development ot the vast resources which we possess, but have never learned to develop. %* Special Telegraphic Correspondence of the Lonisvill# Courier-Journal. From Washington. RAILROADS. Washington, Dec. 11, 1868. Representatives of a number ol railroad pro jects which seek grants of land or other mate rial aid from the Government, are here in force. Chief among these projects are those of tbe Southern Pacific road, now iu course of con struction through Texas, and the International road, which is proposed to be built lrom some point west of Cairo, Illinois—perhaps through Missouri, Arkansas, and thence through Mexico, having a terminus at San Bias or Mazatlan. It is understood arrangements have already been perfected to secure the right of way, as well as grants ot land from the Mexican Government. There are a number of other minor projects, but tbe above are the most important. REDTVIVU8. Private letters from Virginia and the Carolines report tbe people rapidly recovering from the fearlul effect of the late civil war, and that with in another year their industrial pursuits will agaiu he established on a firm basis. They express the opinion that the several rulings of Chiet Justice Chase, during the last session of the Circuit Court in Richmond, have tended greatly to establish confidence. REVENUE COMMISSIONERBHIP. Aspirants to the position of Revenue Commis sioner are hot alter that office, but whom the President will select is not positively known. As you have been heretofore advised, so now it seems probable that the name ot Alexander Cum mings, of Philadelphia, will be sent in, bis friends claiming that he would have been con firmed if the Senate had not adjourned in July while the ballot was being taken thereon. Col. Otis Morse, of Ohio, and Congressman Wood- bridge, of Vermont, are alo spoken of. General Wisewell is not in the ring, and says he would not accept. HELEN WESTERN, the actress, died this morning at the Kirkwood House. Airs. Western was taken sick in Pitts burg about five weeks since, of congestion of the bowels, aud came to this city about eighteen days since, to play an engagement at Wall’s Opera House, and on the first night of her ap pearance was taken so ill as to render it neces sary for her to be removed from the stage. She was then confined to her room until to-day week, when, at the advice of her attending phy sician, she appeared on the stage on that night, and on tbe Saturday following she was again compelled to retire to her bed, which she never left afterwards. Yesterday afternoon Dr. A. Y. S. Garrett was called in, and after an examina tion, pronounced her case fatal. On Wednesday she was very cheerful, and remarked that she would soon be well and able to follow her pro fession. Oq that day, however, the proprietor of tbe hotel notified her agent that he had rented her room to another party, and that it would be necessary for them to change to another, which was done. The exertion of the removal excited and aggravated her disease, aud was the imme-. diate cause of her death. DR. VAN CAMP, agent of the Louisville, Harrodsburg, aud Vir ginia Railroad, is now here, and is making fine progress. He has had interviews recently with prominent railroad and financial men, whose aid has been enlisted in the road. PATENT EXAMINERS. The committee who have been examining the qualifications ot examiners in the Patent Office has reported in favor of discharging twenty who were declared incompetent. OHIO SUPERVISOR. The Secretary of the Treasury to-day confirm- firmed Gen. Young as Supervisor ot the South ern District of Ohio. It should be stated that the office sought the General, as Gen. Schenck had him appointed without his solicitation, merely telegraphing to him that, if he would ac cept the office, it would be tendered him. MAJOR GENERAL MEADE has been directed to repair to this city, ou some public business, at such time this month as, in his judgment, the public interest will permit. GEN. 8TONEMAN. arrived m this city this morniug. Tbe General called at army headquarters and had an inter view with Gen. Graut. OUTRAGEOUS. The Secretary of the Treasury will shortly discharge all negroes in the department who were not in the army. Their places are to be filled by disabled soldiers. A number of these negroes have been in the department for many years, and are quite independent. COL. J. STODDARD JOHNSTON, messenger, deposited the electoral vote of Ken tucky with the President to-day. SPECULATIVE. The rumor current that Washbnrne will be Grant’s Secretary of the Treasury is mere guess work. There is the best authority for stating that General Grant has not as yet selected his Cabinet. MISSISSIPPI DELEGATION. A delegation from Mississippi arrived to night for the purpose of protesting against Congress recognizing and adopting the constitution de feated in that State five or six months go. Lieu tenant-Colonel Riddle and other army officers are among the delegation. ALABAMA CORRESPONDENCE. The Secretary of State, it is now said, will not, in response to a resolution in the House re questing the correspondence of the Alabama claims, submit it to that body. The President, however, wilt send in a special message Monday explaining that it cannot be submitted at present without embarrassing negotiations. Pollard—The Last of the Southern Opin ion. The last number of the Southern Opinion, a memorial number, edited by E. A. Pollard, Esq., brother of the deceased editor, appeared on Sat urday last, according to announcement, with sixteen of its wide columns devoted to the de tails of the late homicide. The paper contains no reading matter not connected with the late editor, and the sad affair which resulted in his death In the Darr&tive Mr. Pollard says that a war rant had been gotten out for his arrest on ar riving at Richmond after learning ot his broth er’s death, “by tbe cowards who had murdered his (my) brother.” He also says that “through a whole day and until midnight I walked the streets of Richmond, from door ro door, to obtain legal counsel against my brother’s murderer,” and that there was no question of lee, that being assured. He says : I went to a raau whom my murdered brother, when an editor, had raised to public office, who had formerly been the counsel of my brother in other cases, and who had expressed great friendship lor myself; when in the conduct cf the old Examiner, I had been in a position to do him favors. That man refused. ALore than this, (and there is a witness to it,) he allowed me to unburden my whole case; to tell who were my witnesses, to expose what I expected to prove, and alter thus possessing himselt ot all the points against the murderer, he then (after the lapse of a half hour’s conversation,) coldly told me that he was the friend ot the murderer’s family and could not appear against him. Yet another lawyer was applied to. He had been a college mate of mine. I appealed to him, almost with tears in my eyes. This man answered : “Air. Ppliard, if I was you, consider ing the state of public opinion. I would not be active in prosecuting the ifturderer. Public opinion, sir, would not sustain me.” “Sir,” I replied—and the midst of tears in my eyes must have broken with a blaze Gt scorn—“ public opinion may have its weight; hut there is a time when the true and the brave man. in the execu tion of duty—the honorable advocate—throws it from him as a contemned and despised thing; throws it as a base fetter into the gutter! In regard to the “fatal article” Air. Pollard ad mits that it was “improper,” and does not at tempt to defend it, though he thinks there were palliating circumstances—certainly enough to have saved his brother from the “doom of being shot through the back with a load of buckshot from the garret of an assassin.” In view of the card of Mr. Hanna, to the effect that he (Hanna) objected to the “prostitution” of the Southern Opinion, aud that he (Hanna) had at times prepared paragraphs for insertion that caused him (Hanna) keener pain than it did those for whom they were intended, &c. Mr. E. A. Pollard recalls and annuls any excuses made in behalf of Hanna. Of the burial ol the remains he says : “It was inexpressibly touching to" those who mourned tne dead to notice, when the remains passed out of Richmond, what marks ot respect were shown all along the road. At Charlotts- ville, where the remains were delayed over night many of the leading citizens called to ex press their deep sympathy to the brother, E. A. Pollard—insisted on sitting by the corpse through the night, and the next morning when the re mains were placed on tbe Orange and Alexan dria train to be conveyed to their last resting- place iu Ntlson county, they were borne to the cars by a committee of citizens and a . large crowd looked on with respectful sympathy. They were buried iu the cemetery at ‘Oakridge,’ once tbe property of the Rives iamily, now own ed by Wiiliaui Porcher Miles.” The roll of the House of Representatives, when it shall meet to-uay, will bear the names of two hundred and twenty-three Representa tives, including the delegations from Georgia and Alabama. Four members of the present House have died, viz: Messis. Finney aud Stev ens of Pennsylvania, Alann, of Louisiana, and Hinds, of Arkansas. The Senate roll will con tain the names of sixty six membeis, including Messrs. Hill and Aliller of Georgia, and Alessrs.

Judge Gholsou, of Petersburg, member of Gholson, Walker & Co., Liverpool, was found dead in bed this morning. Washington, Dec. 13.—The Lynching at New Albany, Indiana, will probably become an, international affair. Two ol the persons hung had been returned from Canada under extradi tion laws, with, pledges from the United States that after a fair trial, if resulting in acquittal, they should be safely returned to Canada. National banks, other than designated deposi tories, are withdrawing bonds deposited to se cure public deposits, in consequence of McCul loch’s order restricting revenue collectors from depositing elsewhere than with designated de positories. The withdrawal of bonds during the past week amounts to nearly a million dol lars. A strong republican delegation is here from Mississippi, claiming the adoption of the Consti tution by that State. The Reconstruction com' mittee will hear them Monday. The Reconstruction committee will not enter formally into the Georgia investigation till alter Alondav. Sherman reported a bill for constructing a rail road from Washington to Cincinnati. Air.

In the Supreme Court Butler is arguing the difference between the President’s pardon and amnesty—maintaining that it only saves the re cipient from penalties, whereas amnesty returns forfeited rights. New York, Dec. 14.—Important news dis patches prepared for the Associated Press, at Havana, was suppressed by the Cuban authori ties. It is inferred that the insurgents have ob tained advantages, which the authorities desire to keep from the public. Murder op axIndi an Chief.—Tbe following are tbe facts relative to ihe killing of an Indian Chief at Dunlap, Iowa. Several hundred In dians had been encamped near the town. The Indian who was killed came to town, and sev eral railroad men got in with him, and one of their first acts was to get the blanket away from him. This he finally recovered. They then took his tomahawk, and when he tried*to get this back they struck him with it. This induced the Chief to make efforts to get back bis hatchet by force, when he was struck a cowardly blow and killed. This outrageous conduct aroused the indingation of his comrades, and they came in foice to town, telling in plain English it the villains who had perpetrated the crime were not at once apprehended, they woold barn the place. They had force enough on hand to do it, but the authorities there at once took steps to secure the dastardly scoundrels. One of them got away, and the other is in custody and will be tried.

T HIS GUANO is fonnd by experb-nce to po Bess fully equal, and, under tome conditions, gieater, ferti- izing power than Peruvian Gnano. Its cost per ton is at least $80 less than Peruvian; hence, planters can afford to use it more liberally, and thus realize greater benefits. According to tbe experience of Wm. H. Young, Esq., of Columbus. Ga., to whom wo reler, 20» pounds per acre of Soluble Pacific Guano increased the crop three to four times; 400 pounds per acre, increased the crop five to six times. Directions tor Use Strew one half the quantity to be applied per acre in tue drill, or hill, snd plant upon it. When the cotton or coru is brought to a stand, and well up. ray lour or five inches, sow the other hah broadcast between the rows, before the plows. This is found to be a bitter method than to apply all in ihe drill. This Guauo not only increases theorop so largely, but matures it from two to four weeks earlier—thus adding so long a time to the bearing season, and makee a good crop, notwithstanding it be attacked by caterpillar. The use of this Guano in Georgia ou the last paid from 800 to 400 p.r cent, on the investment. Every planter, who is incredulous as to these facts, should at bast satisfy hi-oself by a trial on a rinal! scale, as the outlay will be small, while the experience gained will jR-ove of great value. The culture of poor laud will not compensate without the use of concentrated ferti lizers, and that which ie best, at least cost, mast be pre ferred. See testimonials annexed.

WM. H. YOUNG. Charles A. Peabody, Esq., of Lee county, Alabama, in a letter to William H. Young, says: “ The Peruvian Guano I had before used, and know it to be an invaln .ble ferti.izer for cotton.

Ornei op Uuoltho Walts, Sols Importer j OT THS SCHIIPAM A RO RATIO SCHNAPPS, St Bsaver Street, New York, Nov. S, 1888. To the People of the Southern States: When the pure medicinal reatoratlve, now so widely known as Wolfe’s Schiedam Schnapps, was introduced into the world under the endorsement of fonr thousand •ading members of the medical profession some twenty years ago, its proprietor was well aware that it could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all now and useful preparations. He, therelore, endeavored to in vest it with strongest possible safeguard against coun terfeiters, and to render all attempt# to pirate it difficult and dangerous. It was submitted to distinguished chemists for enalysis, aud pronounced by them the pu rest spirits ever manufactured. Its purity and properties having been thus ascertained, samples of theartic.e were forwarded to tea thousand physicians, including &U the leading practitioners In the United States, for purposes of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of the pi a- paration and report of tbe result, accompanied each spe cimen. Four thousand ol the most eminent medical men ia ihe Union promptly responded. Their opinions of the artiele were unanimously favorable. Such a prepara tion, they said, had long been wanted by the profession, as no reliance could be placed on the ordinary liquor* of commerce, all of which were more or less adulterated, and therefore unfit for modi cal purposes. The peculiar excellence and strength of the oil of juniper, which form ed one of tho principal ingredients of the Schnapps, to gether with an unalloyed character ot the alcoholio ele ment, give it, in the estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffusive stimulant as a diu retic, tonio, and restorative. These satisfactory credential* lrom professional men of the highest rank were published in a condensed form, aud enclosed with each bottle of the Schnapps, as one of the guarantees of ita genuineness. Other precautions against fraud were al*o adopted; a patent was obtained or the article, the label was copyrighted, a fac simile o the proprietor’s autograph signature was attached to each label and cover, his name and that of the prepara tion were embossed on the bottles, and the corks were sealed with his private seaL No article had ever been sold In this country under tho name of Schnapps prior to Hie introduction of Woife’a Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1861; and the label was deposited, as bis trade mark, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Now York during that year. It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with tbe daring character of the pirates who prey upon the reputation of honorable merchants by vending delete rious trash under their name, that the protections so carefully thrown around these Schnapps would have pre cluded the introductions and sale ot counterfeits. They seem, however, only to have stimulated the rapacity of impostor*. The trade mark or the proprietor h^s been stolen; the indorsement whiah his bchisdsm Aromatic Schnapps alone received from the medical profession has bean claimed by mendacious humbugs; his labels and bo sties have bean imitated, his advertisements para phrased, his circulars copied,'and worse than all, dishon orable retailers, after disposing of the genuine contents of his bottles, have filled them up with common gin, tne most deleterious of ail liqnore, and thus made his name and brand a cover for poison. The public, the medical profession, and the sick, fat whom the Behxedam Aromatic Schnapps is prescribed as a remedy, are equally interested with the proprietor in the detection and suppression of these nefarious prac tices. The genuine article, manufactured at the estab lishment of the undersigned, iu Schiedam, Holland, is distilled from a barley of the finest quality, and flavored with an essential extract of the berry of the Italian juni per, of nuequaled purity. Bv a process unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it is freed from every (acrimonious and corrosive element. ' Complaints have bean received from the leading physi cians and families in the Southern Suites of the sale of cheap imitatioii* of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps in those markets, and travelers who are in the habit of using it as an antidode to the baneful influence of un wholesome river water, testify that cheap gin, put np in Sheridan bottles, is frequently palmed off upon the un wary. The agents of the undersigned have been request ed to institute inquiries on the subject, and to forward to him the names of sneh parties as they may ascertain to be engaged in the atrocious system of decaption. In conclusion, the undersigned would say that he has pro duced, from under the hands of tbe most distinguished men of science in America, proofs unanswerable of the purity and medicinal excellence of the Schiedam Aro matic Sehnappa; that he has expended many thousand dollars in earroanding it wj^guarantees and safeguards which he designed should protect tbe public and himself against fraudulent imitations; that he has shown it to be the only liquor in the world that can be uniformly do. pended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investigation, analysis, comparaison, and ••-xperLnienf all its forms; and from every ordeal the preparation which b are his name, seal, and trade mark, has come off triumphant. He therefore feels it a dnty he owes to his fellow-citiBuns generally, to the medical profession and the stale, to denounce and expos* the charlatans who counterfeit these evidences of identity, and he calls upon the press and the public to aid him in his efforts to rem edy so great an evil. The following letters and certificates from the leading physicians and chemists ol this city will prove to the reader that all goods sold by the undersigned are all they are represented to he. UDOLPHO WOLFE. I feel bound to say that I legard your Schnapps as be ing in every respect pre-eminently pure, and deserving of medical patronage. At all events, it is the purest possi ble article of Holland Gin, heretofore unobtainable, and as such may he safely prescribed by physicians. DAVID L. MOTT, M. D., Pharmaceutical Chemist, New York.' 26 Pin* Street, New Yofk, I Nov. 21, lfitiT. f Vdalpho Wolfe, Beq., Tresmt: Dear Sir—I have made a chemical examination of a sample of your Schiedam Schnapps, with ihe Intent of determining if any foreign or injurious substanoe* had been added to tbe simple distilled spirits. The examination has resulted in the cenolnsion that the sample contained no poisonous or harmful admix ture. I have been unable to discover any trace of the deleterious substances whioh are employed in Ihe adul teration of liquors. I would not hesitate to use myself, or to reeommeadto others, for medicinal purposes the Schiedam Schnapps as on excellent and unobjectionable variety of gin. Very respectfully yours, (Signed) OHAS. A. SEELY, Chemist. New York, 56 Creak Street, ) November 26,1867. j Udotpk* Wolfe, Asq., Present: Dear Sib—I have submitted to chemical analysis two bottles of Schiedam Schnapps, which I took from a fresh package in your bonded warehouse, and find as before, that tiie spirituous l.quor is free from injurious ingredi ents or falsification ; that it has the marks of being aged and not recently prepared by mechanical admixture ot aloohol and aromatics. Respeetfally, FRED. W. MAYES, Chemist. ■«> New York, Taesdav, May 1. Vttolfho Wbl/s. Esq.: Dear Sir—The want of pure wines and liquors forma dictcal purposes has been long felt by tbe profession, and thousands of lives have been sacrificed by the use of adulterated articles. Delirium tremens, and other dis eases of the brain and nerves so rife in this country, are ▼ery rare in Borope, owing, in a great degree, to the dif ference in tbe purity of the spirits sold. We have tested the several articles Imported and sold by you, ineluding your Gin, which you sell under the name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, which we con sider justly entitie<Pto the tigh reputation it has acqnired in this coantry; and from your long experience as a for eign importer, your Bottled Wine* and Liquors should meet with the ean.e demand. We wouid recommend you to appoint some of the re epeccable apothecaries in different parts of the city a agents lor the sale of your Brandies and Wines, wher the profession can obtain the same when needed for medicinal purposes. Wishing you success in yomr new enterprise, We remain your obedient servants. VALENTINE MOTT, M. D., Professor of Surgery, Uni versify Medical College, New York. J. M. CARNOOHAN, M.
