FOR 00 SO BBSS, BBVKNTB DISTRICT. Q- a tt - I*. M . U . "Y O TJ Cr» ot Bartow County. Alive to the City’a Interest. We are pleased to perceive that our “City Fathers” are keenly active to the interest of the “Oate City.” They have not only “put the ball in motion” that ensures the completion of the “Air Line Railroad,” but as will be seen in the following proceedings of Council on Friday night last, they have, by the reaffirmation of their subscription to the stock of the “Georgia Western Railroad,” in the sum of 1300,000, made certain the completion of that Road which will save ‘ho city from being cut off from benefits which she now to a great extent enjoys, and which will secure them to her in all future, despite the efforts of rival interests to divert them from her. We cannot too highly applaud the actiou of oar “City Fathers” in the prem ises, and shall take an early opportunity ol placing before the readers of the Intelligen cer some facts connected with their action in the proposed construction of the “Georgia West ern Railroad” of an important and highly in teresting nature. In the meantime wo call their attention to the following which we ex tract from the proceedings of the last meeting of Council : Mr. Peters submitted the following: Whereas, The Board of Directors of the Georgia Railroad, at their meeting on the 8th day of December, 1868, passed the following resolution: Resolved, That the President be hereby au thorized to re-affirm the subscription made by this company in the year 1860, to the stock ol the Georgia Western Railroad of tw r o hundred and fifty thousaud dollars, and that it is the opin ion of the directors of this company that the graduation of this road to the Powder Springs, distant from Atlanta twenty-five miles, should be placed under contract by the 1st of February next, or sooner, it practicable, this subscription bc’ug upon the positive condition that the city of Atlanta re-afflrrn her subscription of three hundred thousand dollars to the aforesaid road. And WnERBAS, the Mayor and Council of the city of Atlanta, in Lite year 1860, passed the fol- owing ordinance: llis Honor the Mayor ot the city ot Atlanta be,and he is hereby authorized and directed to subscribe, in belialt of the Mayor aDd Council of the city of Atlanta, for three thou sand shares of $100 each, in the Georgia Western Railroad Company ; And Whereas, The building of said Georgia Western Railroad is now contemplated. Therefore, be it resolved by the Mayor atul Coun cil of the City of Atlanta, That the Mayor of said city be, and he is hereby directed to re-afllrm said subscription of three thousand shares of one hundred dollars each, in said Railroad Compa ny, ami to eater the names of said city on the subscription book ot said Company tor said amount. Adopted. remove from office, or from the performance of official duties and the exercise ot official power, any officer or person holding or exercising, or professing to hold or exercise, any civil office or duty in such State under any power, election, appointment, or authority derived from, or granted by, or claimed under the so-oalled State of Georgia, or the government thereof, or any municipal or other division thereof; and upon such suspension or removal, such provisional Governor elect shall have power to provide lrom time to time for the performance of the duties of such officer or person so suspended or re- removed, by the appointment of some compe tent person to perform the same, and to fill va cancies occasioned by death, resignation, or otherwise. Sec. 5. And be it further enacted, That the President bo, and he is hereby directed to place at the disposal of the Provisional Governor elect of Georgia, such portion of the army and navy of the United States as may be required by him for the preservation of the lives and property of persons, the peace and good order of the com munity, and the protection ot citizens in the tree expression of their political opinions. WASHING TOM CORRESPOND ENCE. [SPECIAL TO TBS ATLAHTA 1HTZLL1GXXCEB.] Washington, D. C., Dec. 12,1868. Although it was not expected that Congress would get into working order till a'ter the holi days, yet the city is enjoying a perfect surfeit of strangers, most of whom seem to be laboring under the hallucination that an era of perfec- Radical happiness is close at hand. Fears, howt ever, are beginning to pervade the Radical camp that, after all, the ultra policy of the de- structionists will meet with little favor at the hands of the President elect Georgia and Louisiana are thorns in the sides of Radicalism. The Jacobins foresee the doom that awaits their party in 1872, and are using every inducement to make hay while the sun shines, as its setting is sure to be attended by terrible retributions. Their success iu the late elections is the inevita ble precursor of their utter destruction when next the parlies meet to contest for the Presi dency. It has already been discovered that General Grant never gave his adhesion to the Radical platform, except by implication; hence a general distrust of him is being proclaimed with more and more boldness every day. The persons assembled in Washington at present may be said to constitute the vanguard ot that army ot hungry office-seekers desirous of being installed in the tat berths subject to the Executive appointments. True to their grovel ing instincts, they have attempted to take Gen. Grant by storm and compel his acquiescence in their wishes; but with true military tact, he has Hanked them every time they have made the onset. He has been and is in tact continually on the move, so that there is no chance ol button-holding him and compelling him willingly to listen to long diser- tations ot devotion to party, and heroic labors for his election. Heuce, there is tribulation among the faithful, copious weeping, and gnash ing of teeth; in short, the whole Radical party is in a glorious muddle. The men that did most to secure General Grant’s election, though not really favorable to his nomination, are already doubting him and throwing obstacles in his way. They are becoming daily less cautious in their expressions of distrust and doubt, as well of his capacity as of his devotion to their especial ideas. From all these indications we may antici pate a scene in the House of Ham, before many months shall follow the ides of March. Il is not improbable that the unseemly exhibi tion of ill-temper which characterized the action of both Houses of Congress when the annual message of the President was submitted for their consideration, was attributed to the irritation produced by the conflicting rumors that are afloat regarding the intentions and political status of Lie President elect. One thing is very cer tain, however, that Messrs. Conness, ol California, and Scheuck, of Ohio, aud their puny followers, have sounded the lowest depths of infamy by the ribald tone of their remarks concerning a state paper, which, if not absolutely compli mentary to their wisdom, is acknowledged on all sides to be one ot the ablest documents that has ever emanated from the Executive ot the nation. I would advise those sensitive Congressmen to keep their wrath “bottled up.” till the hour for investigating frauds upon the Government shall have arrived, especially when the gigantic Alaska swindle, in which many of their compeers will figure iu no ^enviable light, shall have claimed their Attention* Among the new notabilities added to the pres ent Congress, it believes me to mention the Hon. P. M. B. Youug, representing the 7th District of Georgia, who bids fair to become one of the most popular and useful members of the lower house. Short as his sojourn has been in Washing ton, he has already ingratiated himself into gen eral favor by the dignity of his deportment and that peculiar suavity of manner which made him so popular with the officers of the old army. Gen. Young is ^moreover noted for modesty, discre tion, moderation, and as he is the regular nomi nee of the Democratic party in the 7th District, it is confidently expected that the 41st Congress will again be graced by the presence of a gen tleman whose geniality of disposition and intel lectual qualities cannot fail to raise him to a high pinnacle of distinctien. Atlanta. Grant’s Cabinet—A Wager.—A Washing ton letter to the Baltimore Sun, of Friday last* says: “ To-day the wager ol a cool thousand dollars was made by a man that he could name the Cabinet ot the incoming administration. Articles were signed and the money deposited in the safe ot a leading hotel. The betting slate as made up is as follows: Secretary of State, Edwin M. Stanton ; Secretary of the Treasury, Senator Morton ; Secretary of War, Gen. J. M.

The reader will see the extont of the malig nity of the Massachusetts Senator towards Georgia, if he will peruse the following bill which he recently introduced into the Senate, and which has been referred to the Committee on the Judiciary: A Bill to carry out the Reconstruction Acts in the State of Georgia. Whereas, In the act of Congress entitled “An act for the more efficient government ol the rebel States,” among which is enumerated Georgia, it is provided that until the people of said rebel States shall by law be admitted to representation in Congress, any civil govern ment which may exist therein shall be provi sional only, and such Slates are divided into military districts; And whereas, in the supplementary recon struction act bearing date July nineteenth, eigh teen hundred and sixty-seven, it is further pro vided that “ all persons hereafter elected or ap pointed to office in said military districts under any so-called Stale or municipal authority, shall be required to take and subscribe the oath of office prescribed by law lor officers of the Uni ted States; ” And whereas, it was the true intent and meaning of the a ct above mentioned that per sons allowed to participate in the provisional legislation of any of the rebel States prior to their admission to representation by Congress, •hall take and subscribe the oath above men tioned ; and whereas the Legislature ef Georgia, elected under and by virtue of the acts of Con gress known as the reconstruction acts, on the twentieth, twenty-first, twenty-second, and twentj-third of April, eighteen hundred aud sixty-eight, and when assembled on the fourth ot July, eig hteen hundred and sixty-eight, failed to comply with the foregoiug requirements, so that such legislature was never organized accord ing to law ; and whereas, further, this legisla ture, thus defective in organization, has pretend ed to act as it it were a legislative body duly constitut d, and has done certain things utterly unjustifiable, aud requiring the iuterveutioD of Congress ; Therefore, Be it enacted by the Senate and Ho use of Rep resentatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the civil government actually existing in Georgia is provisional only, and in all respects subject to the paramount au thority of the United States at any time to abol ish, modity, control, or supersede the same, until a legislature organized in accordauae witn toe requirements ot the act ot July nineteenth, eighteen hundred and sixty-seven, snail have duly ratified the amendment to the Constitution of the United States, proposed by the Thirty- Ninth Congress, and known as article fourteen, when the State, according to the act aforesaid will be subject to the fundamental condition that the constitution of the Stale shall not be so amended or changed as to deprive any citizen of the United Staus, or class of citizens, of the right to vote in such State, who are entitled to vote by the constitution thereot herein recog nized, except as a punishment for such crimes as are now felonies at common law, whereof they have been duly convicted, uiuier laws equally applicable tojail the inhabitants ot the State _ constitution may be made to the time aud place ot residence of voters.

Governor Bullock was before the reconstruc tion committee to-day. The eommittee also gave the Mississippi Re publican delegation a concluding hearing. Should either the Senate or the House bill re pealing the law forbidding the militia pass, a pocket veto during the recess will kill it.

T HIS GUANO is found by experience to po-?ess fully equal, and, uuder eome conditions, gieater, ferti- tzing power than Peruvian Guano. Its cost per ton is at .'east $80 leas than Peruvian; hence, planters can afford to use it more liberally, and tbus realize greater benefits. According to tlie experience of Wm. H. Young, Esq., of Columbus, Ga., to whom we 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. Dihbctioh8 for U6*Strew one half the quantity to be applied per acre In the drill, or hill, aud plant upon it. When the cotton or corn is brought to a stand, and well up, ray four or five inches, sow the other halt broadcast between the rows, before the plows. This is found to be a better method than to apply all in the drill. This Guano not only increases theorop so largety, but matures it from two to four weeks earlier—thus adding so long a time to the bearing season, and makes a good crop, notwithstanding it be attacked by caterpillar. The use of this Guano in Georgia on tne last crop paid from 200 to 400 per cent, on the investment. Every planter, who is incrednious as to these facts, should at hast satisfy himself by a trial on a vmall scale, as the outlay will be small, while the experience gained will prove of great value. The culture of poor Ian’ 1 will not compensate wi'hout the use of concentrated ferti lizers, and that which is best, at least cost, must he pre ferred. See testimonials annexed.

Not withstanding a ten weeks’ drought, and the attack of the caterpillar, I gathered 860 pounds cotton per acre. From the same laud, without the Guano. I gathered only 200 pounds cotton—say less tnan one-fourth the qaau tity. E. MORRIS. Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 12th, 1868. Messrs.

Columbus, Ga., December, 1861 John S, Reese tt Co : Dear Sirs—Another s-ason con firms my previously expressed convictions, that the soluble Pacific Guano, as compared with Peruvian, is fully as good—indeed, better. 1 have now tested it sni- flciently, using each side by side for two seasons, apply ing the same weight of each per acre, ana in every case the Pacific has given the best results on cotton, corn, potatoe-, and small grain, aud the testimony I have lrom a great many planters confirms my experience. 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 invalu ble fertilizer for cotton. I now fina the Soluble Pacific to be equtily as good. At the same price, I would as soon have it for cotton or corn as the Peruvian; some of my bands insist that it is better.’’ dec!5 - REMOVAL.

To the People of the Southern States: When the pure medicinal restorative, now so widely known as Wolfe's Schiedam Schnapps, was introduced into the world under the endorsement of four thousand ending 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 new and useful preparations. He, theretore, endeavored to in vest it with strongest possible safeguard against coun terfeiters, and to render all atte npts to pirate it difficult and dangerous. It was submitted to distinguished chemists ibr analysis, aud pronounced by them the pu rest spirits ever manufactured. Its purity and properties having been thus ascertained, samples of 1 ho artic.e were forwarded to ten thousaua physicians, including all the leading practitioners in the United States, for purposes of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of the pre paration and report of the result, accompanied each spe cimen. Four thousand of the most eminent medical men in the Union promptly responded. Their opinions of the article were unanimously favorable. Such a prepara tion, they said, had long been wanted by the profession, as no reliance could be plaoed on the ordinary liquors of commerce, all of which were more or less adulterated, uuu therefore unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar ee.eelienee and strength of the oil 0/juniper, which form ed one of the principal ingredients of the Schnapps, to gether with an unalloyed character ol the alcoholic ele ment, give it, in th* estimation of the faeuity, a marked superiority over every othar diffusive stimulant as a diu retic, tonic, aud restorative. These satisfactory credentials irom professional men of the highest rank were published in a condensed form, and enclosed with each bottle of tbe Schnapps, as one or the guarantees of ita genuineness. Other precaution* against fraud were also adopted; a patent was obtained or the article, the label was copyrighted, a fae 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 the name of Schnapps prior to the introduction 0$ Wolfe’s Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1864; and the label wm deposited, as his trade mark. In the United States District Court for the Southern Distriot of New York during that year. It might be supposed by person* unacquainted with tbe daring character of the pirates who prey apon the reputation of honorable merchants by vending delete rious trash under their name, that the protectioas so carefully thrown around these Schnapps would have pre cluded the introduction* aud sale oi counterfeits They seem, however, only to have stimulated the rapacity of impostors. The trade mark of the proprietor ha* been the indorsement which his Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps alone received from the medical profession has been olaimed by mendacious humbugs ; his label* and bottles have been imitated, his advertisement* para phrased, his circulars copied, .'and wore* than all, dishon orable retailers, aff jr disposing of the genuine contests of his bottles, have filled them np with oommon gin, the most deleter one of all liquors, and thus made his name and brand a cover for poison. The public, the medical profession, and the *iok, for whom the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is prescribed aa 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 uudersignod, in Schiedam, Holland, is distilled irom a barley of the finest quality, and flavored with an essential extract of the berry of the Italian juni per, ot unequaled purity. By a process unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it is freed lrom every acrimonious and corrosive element. Complaints have been received from the leading physi cians and families in tne Southern States of the sale of cheap imitations of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps in those markets, and travelers who are in the habit of usiug it as an untidode to the baneful influence of un wholesome river water, testify that cheap gin, put up in Sheridan bottles, is frequently palmed off npon the un wary. The agents of th* undersigned have been request ed to institute inquiries on the subjeot, and to forward to him the names of sneh parties as they may ascertain to be engaged in the atrocious system of deception. In conclusion, the undersigned would say that he has pro duced, from under the hand* of the most distinguished men of seionee in America, proofs unanswerable of the purity and medicinal excellence of the Schiedam Aro matic Schnapps; that he has expended many thousaud dollars in barrounding it with guarantees and safeguards which he designed should protest the jtublic and himself against fraudulent imitations; that he has shown it to be the only liquor in the world that can be uniformly de. pended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investigation, analysis, comparaison, and experiment in all its forms; and from every ordeal the preparation which b ars his name, seal, and trade mark, has come off triumphant. He therefore fee's it a duty he owes to his fellow-citizens generally, to the medical profession and the sick, to denounce and expose th* charlatans who counterfeit these evidences of identity, and he calls upon th* press and the public to aid him in hi» aborts to rem edy so great an evil. The following letters and eertificates from the leading physicians and chemists of this city will prove to the reader that ail goods sold by the undersigned are all tnoy are represented to be, UDOLFHO WOLFE. I feel bound t* say that I regard yonr Sehaappa aa be ing in every respect pre-eminently pare, and deserving of medical patronage. At all events, it is the purest possi ble article of Holland Giu, heretofore unobtainable, aud as such may be safe^r preseribdd by physicians. DAVID L. MOTT, M.

Delirium tremens, and other dis eases of the brain and nerves, so rife in this country, arc very rare in Europe, owing, in a great degree, to the dif ference in the purity of the spirits sold. Wc hare tested the several articles imported and sold by you, including yonr Gin, which yon sell under the name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, which we con- aider justly entitled to the high reputation it has acquired in this country; and from your long experienca as a for eign importer, your Bottled Wines and Liqnors should meet with the -:arr.e demand. We would recommend yon to appoint some of the re spectabie Apothecaries in different parte of the city a agents for the sale of yonr Brandies and Wines, wher the profession can obtain the same when needed for medicinal purposes.
