CONST IT UTIONALIST. WEDNESDAY MORNING, JAN. 15.18 GS [From the New York Ilorald. Tho Pulpit in a New Attitude. The pulpit has had a great success in the auction sale of pews at Henry H ard Beecher’s church. They brought magnifi cent prices. No boxes at the opera nor seats at the Dickens’ readings could make any show against the Plymouth church auction; from which we infer that religion is going up in the market us represented in Beecher’s tabernacle, where, like the re ligion, of the ancient Greeks, piety and the drama are strangely mixed. In olden times the gods were brought upon the stage, and men laughed in the theatre at what they worshipped in the temple. Beecher has brought us back to the simplicity of those primitive days; but he is more brilliant than his predecessors of a thousand years ago; for while they clumsily connected politics and caricature with religion, he skilfully interweaves them and makes an ensemble which, if it does not increase the piety of his congregation, helps the auc tioneer materially in the sale ot the pews of Plymouth church. If he is more of an Aristophanes than an Eschylus it is be cause lie knows that the comic 7-ole “draws” better than the tragic, and he appreciates the laughter which ids jokes provoke quite as well as the plaudits that his political points call forth. Then his style suits the well-dressed ladies that the pulpit nowa days invites to worship, for in Plymouth church Beecher shines more brilliantly than the meteors which Professor Loomis tried to suppress by the power of prophecy, but could not; and women, we know, fol low the “ garish flame.” But Beecher has a rival in his pupil—the Rev. Charles B. (Black Crook) Smyth—who is about to lecture on the New York Press D. D.’s (whatever that means) —Demons, Dollars and the Dickens—on Sunday next. He is going to give us a sermon with a text from the sixteenth chapter of St. Luke, proving that “ the children of this world, in their generation, are wiser than the children of light;” that New York is the wonder of the" world, because it sustains so many newspapers; how the Herald ought to be edited and a good many other useful • things, according to Smyth. Now, if Beecher will preach one of his original ser mons on Sunday wc will send reporters to both places, so that the public can see on Monday which is the best preacher of the two. Grant and the Reconstruction Poli cy.—Senator Wilson has written a long communication, which appears in the In dependent, recommending the nomination of General Grant for the next Presidency. We quote from it the following: “ To the reconstruction policy of Con gress—the vital and overshadowing issue of the day—General Grant gave his earnest support, and he has zealously striven to carry the legislation of Congress into effect. On the reconstruction policy General Grant has been and now is in accord with Con gress and the Republican party. So anx ious was he to have that policy promptly carried into effect that lie urgently pressed upon members of Congress the vital impor tance of so arranging the adjournments as to be able to meet at any time, should the needs of the country require it.” According to this statement, General Grant is as Radical as the most Radical, and fully indorses the reconstructionlpolicy of Congress. A countryman, returning home from New York, said : “Mr. Licensed Vender must be a very rich man, for he owns nearly all the onc horse wagons in New York.” _ f ®ri-ttJeckln Constitutionalist. (From the New York Bulletin, 8 h. New York Dry Goods Market. Tuesday, January 7, 1868. There is a little more activity to lie reported to-day in the dry goods market. Besides the usual orders received to replenish stocks, there are a few buyers, chiefly from the State, who agreeable destroy the monotony that other wise would have reigned. Their purchases are, however, limited to a few staple goods of the best patterns and styles, and there is more chat about the future thau attentiou paid to present operations. There is a great talk iust now about the ab solute necessity of retrenching expenses among the dry goods trade. Os course this refers principally to store rent and clerk hire; but after minute inquiry we do not believe that the saving in this respect will amount to a great deal during the ensuing year. There is a sen sible diminution in rent about Park Place and lls environs, which seem likely soon to be de serted by the trade, but stores in the new quar ter about Leonard and Church streets still com mand very high rents. In Broadway, also, rates are held pretty firm, but a concession is made to a reliable tenant, that in some cases will form a material item in the balance sheet. Taking the whole district between Chambers and Canal streets we should estimate the de cline at about 20 per cent., but it is difficult to give a correct estimate, for a good locality will at any time command fancy prices. Thus there is a store now in Park Place that cannot now be let at ?4,000 that would command about 820,000 in the vicinity of Church and Worth streets. Squares. 1 Week. ’ 2 Weeks.

Belle Boyd as an Actress. —Miss Belle Boyd has rather retired from public notice in common with the other heroes and hero ines of the recent war, and since its close lias only come occasionally to the surface. She lias been acting in England, and Safa lias made a book of her; she has been giv ing readings in Tennessee, and the Duck Creek Hatchet has praised her. She has not, however, excited any very' intense emotion in any of these characters, nor did she cre ate any preliminary flutter in the character of Juliana, in which hist night at the French Theatre, for the first time, she appeared upon the American stage. In fact, the au dience was very slim, and the paying por tion of what there was of it appeared to be almost exclusively Southern. With every willingness in the world to applaud, and thereby help on the debutante , who, indeed, appeared not to need any helping on by rea son of trepidation, it had very little oppor tunity to do so, and the only really hearty applause was awarded to the excessively broad comedy of Mr. Welsh Edwards, who r : ij-r, 1 Cork Pn9r*. Ws do that Miss Boyd is a very bad actress. But as certainly' she is not a very' good one, nor. does she show promise of ever becoming a good one. It was rather injudicious in her, too, to select for her lir.st personation a character which has been played within the shortest metropolitan memory by so many favorite and experienced actresses as has Juliana. She is entitled, also, to commis serat.ion for he 4 stock company, which was hurriedly made up of odds and ends from all the green-rooms, and which was bad enough to discourage a veteran on the stage, much more a recruit. [New York World, 10 th, Melanciioi.lv Accident and Death.—Oh Thursday of last week a very melancholy mis fortune licfel Mr. J. Slopes - , of this place. His son, Hatley, a lad about 10 years of age, in at tempting to jump on the engine, while in motion, missed his aim, fell in front of the ten der, which crushed one of his ankles, tore his ribs from his back bone, mangling him in the most horrible manner. This happened about :> o’clock on Thursday, and the lad lingered until r> o’clock Friday morning, when death re lieved him ot his sufferings. Parents cannot be too cautions in allowing their children to go about the ears. This lad had done the thing lie attempted to do a hun dred times before, hut at last he failed and \vas crushed to death. Hoys should not he allowed to jump upon moving trains. | LaGrantje Reporter , 10//;. ’Twas Probably a Mistake.— Dr. Lodge, reported in our last, as having swallowed twenty grains of corns ive sublimate, affirms that he swallowed it through mistake—that he thought he was taking Seltzcs aperient; and that whatever may nave been his language or action, he had no idea of swallowing poison. Doctors should be more careful. Many of their prescriptions are dangerous to take, and some of them kill. —Albany Neaps, 9th. k PERFECTED MANURE. THE PATAPSCO GUANO COMPANY’S Jlminoiiiatad Soluble Phosphate. T Ills invaluable FERTILIZER ami MANURE combined is now ottered to the public, after three years’ use has demonstrated its unrivalled excellence. It has been the study of the most eminent chemists in tltis country and in Europe to so combine the stimulating properties of Ammonia with the more enduring qualities of other mineral substances so ne cessary for the growtli and perfection of the plant audits products, that the soil should not bo cxnausted of its fertility by the use of stimulants alone, as is the ease when those so-called manures are used which contain Ammonia in excess of the useful development of the plant. Our Superintendent and Managing Chemist, G. A. Liebig, Pli. D., from his long study and experience, and availing himself of the facilities furnished him by European Chemists and Manufactiu ers during his late visit to the Continent, prepares a manure that combines all the improvements which the Scientific Talent or thk Would has been able to make in the combining and manufacturing of special manures. We fearlessly challenge comparison with the best brands in the market, either in the Field or Labora tory. Every ton winch leaves our works is prepared un der the personal supervision of Dr. Liebig, whose well-known character as a man and chemist is suffi cient guaranty of its integrity. Wo have also secured the services of Hon. T. C. Peters, late President of the New York State Agri cultural Society, and recently Agent of the Bureau of Agriculture, as our General Traveling Agent at the South, and to personally represent us among the planters and dealers.

I HE UNDERSIGNED, having become satisfied by a personal examination of the prepared article, as well as the process of manufacture pursued by Dr. Liebig, (who iias iong been known to him as a most accomplished Chemist,) that the PATAPSCO GUA NO COMPANY'S AMMONIATED SOLUBLE PHOSPHATE is among the must valuable, if not the most valuable, ever offered to the pub ic, has consented to aid in its dissemination by acting as the Company's Genera - Trave ing Agent. While many of the brands of special manures upon the market posses-* much value, and ilieir integrity may he relied upon, he is constrained o say that gross frauds and adulterations have come to his knowledge. These frauds arc the more cruel, as they are not generally detected until the planter has lost his crop as well as his money. Theodore c. peters.

Roberts <J- Cos., Atlanta, Qa.: *j> Jjg Gentlemen : I am well pleased with the result of irho use of the “ Double Refined Poudrette ” on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied ber ever it was applied the yield was more than double what it would have been without it. I regret exceedingly my not using it more extensively the present year, but trill try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity, next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable and easiest managed fertilizer within my knowledge, and cheerfully recommend it (as X have tried it thoroughly,) to the farmers of this section, and particularly to thyse planting cotton, from the fact of its earning it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without the use of ihe Poudrette. X also used it on my garden and found ii of much benefit to all kinds of plants. Very respectfully, Ac., G. S. OGLESBY. Extract from a letter received from Professor Martin, of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia, dated July Ist, 1857: The Double Refined Poudrette is operating like a chancy on my crop, and attracting universal attention beholders. lam already satisfied that it is the cheape jT and surest renovator of our worn-out lands. £ . High Shoals, Ga„ Oct. 4, 1867.£^ James R. Dey, Esq.: Sir: The Double Refined Poudrette I bought for tjftq other p vties in connection with myself—one of them used it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered finely g the other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled hiscrop. I used it on corn. It answer ed finely, and was thought by the hand that cultivated the crop to be fully equal to Rhode’s Super-Phosphate. I also used it on about an acre of cotton, ami I am clearly of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and I expect to order several tons this winter. Yours, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. Ellaville, Schley County, Ga., Oct. 4,1867. The Double Refined Poudrette, purchased of you last spring, I think, increased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per acre ; put it upon worn out pine land at the rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled In with cotton seed.

Kit* SEWARE OF A COUNTERFEIT. decll-ir Ear FAITH WELL FOUNDED.-In old times, at the commencement of every season, it was the fashion to take a strong cathartic as a safeguard against a change of temperature. It was a worse than senseless practice. The people of our day understand the matter better. — Instead of depleting the system they reinforce it. In the method they adopt they exhibit a w ise discrimina tion. Instead of resorting to the vitiated stimulants of commerce, or any of the compounds derived from them, they put their faith in the only absolutely pureinvigo rant procurable In the market—HOSTETTE R’S STOM ACH BITTERS. Their faith is well founded. Never has any tonic medicine been prepared with such scrupu lous precision and conscientious care. It is a vegetable compound, ot' which every ingredient is sound, whole some, and medicinal, in the true sense of the word.— Now, we have three prominent national complaints. One-half of the adult population of the United States suffer more or less, either from diseases of the stomach, derangements of the lirer, or affections of the kidneys. In no other land under Heaven are these maladies so general as in this country, and HOSTETTER’S BIT TERS is a specific for them all, unless organic in their origin, and, therefore, beyond cure. And let those who arc fortunate enough to be exempt from them at present understand one great fact, viz: that an occasional use of this vitalizing tonic will as certainly prevent them as the sun will prevent the earth from freezing where its genial beams descend. decl-tts MRS.
