COM STTT ITT IO.NALIST. FRIDAY MORNING. FEB. 14, 1868 | Corr«3i?!>ond<?riec of the Albany News. Atlanta, Ga., February 7tli, 1868. Editor Neats : The tveat of the Aveek has been the shooting of C. 0. Richardson, member of the convention from Balwin, by Capt. Timoney, late of the United States army, and more recently of “ resuscitat ion” fame. .If a rebel had lione the act, Avliat capital could not be made out of it. The Radicals Avould have Avanted nothing bet ter. As it is, a hoAvl Avas raised to-day in convention,by JE. Bryant, against Timoney, which could only have been exceeded by Avliat would have Avent. up, to the damna tion of that individual, had he served in the rebel army. Timoney is a native of New Orleans, and claims to be of Creole extraction, lie was sent at an early age to Ohio, and there imbibed, while at school, liis peculiar ideas of Avliat used to be'known as “ our peculiar institutions.” Richardson is a native of Maine, and sprouted upon the banks of the Androscoggin river. He serv ed in the United States army in some capa city during the war, and came down here to practice law. J. E. Bryant was his part ner, and knew him at home—both being from the same county. This morning Bryant, during his remarks upon the death of Richardson, not only ex tolled the character of deceased, but went further and stigmatized Timoney as a “cow ardly murderer.” He called upon the con vention to take some steps to prevent a re currence of such tragedies, and endeavor ed to impress the idea that it was a matter of personal interest to every man on the floor. He was also very anxious that the aiders and abettors in the Timoney-Richard son difficulty should be brought to judg ment and made to feel the power of the law. Now this is nothing more nor less than an effort to fasten complicity on Col. Farrow and his friends. I wish they were all in limbo, but I think that it is a palpa ble injustice. Farrow has proven that he is willing and able to light his own battles, and 1 do not believe that he would lend liimself to the sacrifice of any man's life in order to gratify personal ambition. It was also an efl'ort to prejudice the community against Timoney in advance of the law, which is certainly not giving the devil his due. When the facts are all before the public it is more than probable that the act of Timoney will be looked upon by impartial men as justifiable under the circumstances. Bullock “ put his foot into it,” by publishing a card yesterday, which proves very clearly .that the shoe pinches. He not only disavows any parti cipation in the affair (which by the way had not been charged against him,) but also pronounces upon the veracity of the prison er, Timoney, and accuses him of “personal feeling." Why does Bullock jump Timoney gratuitously if this tcoidd- be Governor had not been deeply interested in the event. He seems to know more about it than the pub lic does. If the truth could be got at, it’s more than probable that Bullock and the Augusta clique are at the bottom of the whole affair. But, Mr. Editor, don’t it do you good to see this *■ snarling, snapping and biting” among the dogs? Let ’em tight. Old Democracy can afford to fold her arms and survey the scene with silent contempt—fire, and sword, war, pestilence, famine and death, are but the legitimate re sults of Radicalism. In the eager attempt to kill it’s prey, the rattlesnake will strike itself and yet die of the poison that is with- in it. To-ilay the “Sing-Sing” Combination adopted the first section of the committee’s report on franchise ; hereafter thirty days' residence in a county will entitle carpet baggers to vote. This comes with capital grace from a concern to be a member of which requires no residence at all. Waddell showed the true grit to-day. He talked as a Southern white man should talk. He gave it to the other side so strong that the unfortunate wretches could not it any longer. First one and anoth- 2ri-U)ccklu Constitutionalist. er would call him to order, until, after having said enough and /lone too much, he concluded his remarks With a glowing tri bute to Tom Cobb and Rtonewall Jackson. The more I sec of Waddell and a few others, the more I wonder how men of such principles esu consent to longer re main in such company. * , Scalpel. [Special Correspondence of the Baltimore Gazette.

It was found by the Chase men that the “Correspondence” had not quite im molated Grant; that there was yet some sparks of vitality in him, and, therefore, they design to show him up in anew light. He has, as yet, appeared merely as a detec tive and spy of Stanton. It was thought necessary and advisable to exhibit him in a more degraded position. Under the manip ulation of Stanton, Ashley and Holt, he is to be made a witness, and put upon the stand to testify against his rival candidate for the Presidency / “To what baseness may we return, Horatio! Why may not imagina tion trace the noble dust of Ulysses till Are find it stopping a bungholc?” Besides General Grant, certain members of the Cabinet, and Stanton himself, have been summoned to testify. Also J. B. Stilison, Washington correspondent of the World, and one or two members of Grant's staff. The sub committee met at two o’clock yester terday, and began their labors bv the ex amination of Mr. Stilison. r l hey meet again to-morrow. The President had not as late as last night consented to the publication of his response to Grant’s last letter, (although I think it Avill soon see the light,) nor lias he taken any measures to oust Stanton from the War Department. TheConservatiA'es should nevertheless lie charitable. They should recollect that lie is beset by the most un scrupulous and reckless party that ever held power in this or any other country.— His position certainly is not safe, if il stand in the way of the onward revolution! Could he, ought he, in the unselfish consid eration of the public good, risk the installa tion of Wade as Civil Dictator, at a time like this, when so fearful a struggle is pend ing and rapidly approaching? No man doubts that if the President, intent only upon his own advancement, should even exercise only the powers justly pertaining to liis office, impeachment, and suspension of liis functions would certainly follow, when he must per force become the stand ard-bearer of the opposition. He neverthe less deals Avith liis infamous antagonists with the prudence of a far-seeing statesman and with a patriotism and singleness of purpose without a parallel. He feels that the country cannot just note do without him, and seems disposed to sacrifice all personal considerations to the certain prevention, at (hepropitious moment, of the triumph of t lie petty tyrants that rule Congress.” What ever liis short-connings heretofore may ha ve “been, recent events, and those foreshadowed , warn us to be chary of censuring his present conduct. There is a lull in the news market to-day. The Senate did not sit on Saturday, and a few members only of the House assembled in the Hall to hear prosy speeches. Some fluttering among the epauletted gentry A\ r as observable this afternoon in consequence of an implied insult to the whole army, contained in the Chronicle of this morning. Forney, writing under the signature of “ Occasional,” thus overtops all truth and decency : “ When avc recollect that, without the sol dier thus assailed, (Grant,) the rebellion would hare triumphed, and the Government of the United States would have been destroyed and superseded by that of the slate conspirators, Ave have the reason for this savage malevo lence.” Thus neither the Altila of the Union ar my, Sherman, nor the thunderbolt of liber ty, Little Phil—nor yet the “Sword of Gideon,” the soubriquet by Avhich the ven erable Thomas is distinguished, contribute anything to “ saA'e the life of the nation.” Neither did the dead soldiers, avliosc slum bers are disturbed at Antietam by the proximity of dead Confederates, help to keep life in the country’s carcass. Nor did the maimed patriots, who infest the depart ments, fire a shot to stimulate the languish ing nationality—to Grant and to Grant alone be all the glory ! The bill to carve out of Texas two more States will be passed shortly. One of the sovereignties is, I hear, to be called Congo —the other lias not been determined upon. The object of this bill is to get four more Senators and/owr more electors. X. SPLENDID BAFFLE! A Large Oil Fainting, A Landscape View of the FOREST OF POSTAINBLEAU, Believed to he the work of RENEE.

Roberts 4- Cos., Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen :,I am well pleased with the result of the use Os xhe “ Double Refined PoudreiZe ” on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wher 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 will try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, jnost reliable and easiest managed fertilizer within my knowledge, and cheerfully recommend it (as I have tried it thoroughly,) to the farmers of this section, and particularly to those planting cotton, from the fact of its causing it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without the use of the Poudrette. I also nsei it on roy garden and found it of much benefit to all kind3 of plants. Very respectfully, &c., G. S. OGLESBY.

High Shoai.s, Ga., Oct. 4, 1567. Janies R. Dry, Esq.: Sir : The Double Refined Poudrette I bought for two other p; rties in connection with myselt—one of them used it on cotton and corn, and thiuk3 it answered finely; t’.o other pnt it on cotton, on very poor giound, and thinks it doubled his crop. 1 used it on corn. It answer ed finely, and was thought by the hand that cultivated t h«* crop to be fully equal to Rhodes Super-Phosphate. I ’also used it on about an acre of cotton, and 1 am clearly of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and 1 expect to order several tons this winter. Y*»urs, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. Ellavillr, Schley County, C*a„ 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 iu with cotton seed.
