A Chapter in the Life of the Silver-ware
Dealer History of the Capture, oj Ueu
rrttl Twiggs ' fiwm l -Where are the
SpOOtUf
I-rum the Nno Orleans I’-nyynt.
The reported arrest of'J: ncral Butler ;u
New York, for obc of his transactions in
I his city in the way of appropriating private
property, may result in placing on record
proof's of one of the many charges whiah
have been made against him. The account
is confused, the persons arc improperly
described, and the sum is.greatly exagger
ated. But there was a ease in which the
family mentioned arc said to have been
despoiled of silverware and other property
by violent acts of General Butler; and it
i inferred from the institution of the
charge in New York, that it has been as
certained 'hat a portion of the articles did
not reach the public treasury, but lias been
traced to the possession of General Butler.
The outlinesofthc Twiggs case, as popular
ly believed, are these : Before the fall of
the city, General Twiggs, who had been in
command of the city for the Confedera es,
bad resigned, from ago, aggravated by
acuto disease, and lie ha 1 b en carried
away from the city in a failing condition.
110 died shortly afterward, leaving an in
fant sou who, in right of his mother, waa
’the owner of the fine, largo hou e iu which
General'l' i.o • bad lived. Before he left,
the General made dispositions of articles
of personal.property as presents to friends,
and deposited others in places ot security,
apprehending that sort of spoliation which
did conic. General Butler,after his arrival,
and when General Twiggs was dead, took
possession of the house of General Twiggs
us bis headquarters. Everything in the
house was appropriated to the uses of the
General, his staff, and the ooterioof males
and females lie gathered about him, in
those mighty lea s for which the place
became n t si. Tnis appropriation includ
ed the clothes and jewcrly of the ma ried
daughter of General Twiggs, wife of an
absent Confederate officer. Desiring to
state the ease moderately, we forbear to
report the scenes iu which, anil sort, of
persons to who u the se trophies were Bx
hibitod, or the distribution which is said to
have been made of the spoils. Not satis
fied with the contents of the house, as he
found them, General Butler instituted in
quisitorial searches after supposed articles
of furniture and pieces of property
which he was informed General Twiggs
had caused to be removed.* be‘ore be left
the city. General Butler had taken into
his own service a negro servant of
Gcticial Twiggs, and under his direction
sent his military subordinates all over the
city hunting for stray articles in every
corner; which his negro confidant pointed
out, us n likoly place ‘of deposit for any
thing tlmt had belonged to General
Twiggs. In this way he got a good many
housekeeping articles, table and bed linen,
&c., which have never reappeared
in any list of restored property;
ami, like the $50,000 gold of,Smith & Cos.,
will not be found mentioned in any return
to the government of tho proceeds of
captured property. Homo of the valua
bles of the house, as tho proceeds of this
foraging, may have been found in Lo-voll.
The city gossip abounds with anecdotes of
the eagerness with which Butler pros
ecuted the searoh, and the brutality with
which ho assailed and browbeat every
body suspected of having anything which
had over belonged to the dead old Con
federate officer. Butler bad a great pas
sion lor taking the swords of dead men as
military trophies; witness the breaking open
of Sidney Johnston's tomb, and exploring
the coffin, hoping for a sword; his sending
a tiler of men, with a negro spy, to break
up the floor on Martin Gordon’s premises,
to capture the sword of ex.-President Zach
ary Taylor, dead and in his grave twelve
years before tho war. He wanted the
sword of the dead Twiggs to grace his
victories here; and hunting it up with the
tenacity of a bloodhound, lighted upon it
in the possession of the family named in
tho dispatch from New York. It was
tho legacy of tho' moribund lather to his
inlant child;' a sword of honor bestowed
upon hitn by the Legisalturc of his native
State many years before the war. It was now
given in charge lor this :ame purpose to a
lady. Asa mark of friendly regard, the
General bestowed on the same lady articles
of silver plate, but nothing like the sum
mentioned in the dispatch. On the in
formation of the spy, the lady and her
mother were made to follow a miltitary
guard to the presence of Butler, in his
office. They were rudely assailed in his
customary otyle, driven to tears by liis
brutality, and the secret ot the deposit
was extorted from these terrors. All that
was in their piv-vsssion wan given up.
lb ro it was that he obta ned that sword of i
General I'wiggs which was sent to Wash- ;
iugton|ts one of the trophies of the capture
of New Orleans, and this it was which a
public proposition was made to bestow
u| on Butler himsclfas a reward for his
valor. Nothing e uld have been more
appropriate, in perwoiual memory of the
achievements of Butler in New Orleans,
than the sword of n.dcad ,'septuageuarian,
the property of an infant, wo a, by ruf
fianly violence, from the fears ot a woman.
The sword was given up to tho govern
ment! Its sale would not have netted
anything to compare with the glory of
having won it. In the same package were
two other swords of honor, belonging to
General Twiggs, presented by other Leg
islttures, all very eostly. But among the
articles captured with it wrre, we have
saiu, some articles of valuable plate ; and
the ease against General Butler in New
York must relate to the removal of the !
property, the failure to mike return to
the government, ani possibly tracing
someone of them into Butler’s
possession. Supposing the dispatch tube
true, this is probably the nature ot the
charge. Even if it be not correct, in the
fact of such a procedure having been com
menced, uis worth while, all the same,
Ur recite one of many incidents which show
that such a course of proceeding would
not be misapplied.
A lbs. . ! Biot. —Our peaceable
town was made on Wednesday night last

hand ©flaw’. - . stupid leaguers, alter an
adjourned meetine. in which they had had
the assist a i ceand counsel of sundry carpet
baggers, sallied out with; a.ilargefdrum, \
and many of them armed with pistols, |
shot-guns, etc., paraded the streets until
long after midnight, making night hideous
with yells, shouts, firing of weapons, and
offensive language. One citizen s house
was struck with the contents of a discharg
ed gun, whether accidentally or not. it is
impossible to say; the window class broken,
aud ©is family disturbed and driven from
their beds in wild alarm. Notwithstanding
the grievous character of this riot, no in
terference was made on the part of our
citizens. We understand that threats

arc billeted on the town too many either
for comfort, quiet, or safety—and one of

TELEGRAPHIC CORRESPONDENCE OF THE
CHRONICLE 4t SENTINEL
Washington, November 27.—The
•Span sh gunboat imbroglio still continues
to be the absorbing question in this city,
and from the direction which affairs
seem to be taking apprehensions are felt
here in reliable circles that trouble may
ensue between Spain and the United States
Following close on the heels of the re
port circulated yesterday, to the effect that
if the demand for the release of the gun
boats was not complied with, the Spanish
Minister had been instructed to Jdemand
his passports, the news this evening
that the Ambassador, aeting under posi
tive orders from Lis Government, is press
ing the Administration for au early de
cision on the gunboat question from our
Courts.
It is evident that the Administration
does not wish to accede to this requisition,
but, on the contrary, is using every effort
iri its power lo cause the decision to be de
layed until the meeting of Congress, which
will take place next month.
As soon as this body meets tho question
of recognizing the Cuban Insurgents as
belligerents will be brought up and the
action of Congress upon this subject will
serve as a guide for the Government in the
matter of the release of the Spanish gun
boats.
11 is reported here that the Cabiuet was
not divided in deciding to await the action
of Congress, but that every member was
in favor of the measure.
There is evidence here of a strong move
ment on foot to further the schemes of
Bullock for a second reconstruction of
Georgia.
The action of the Clerk of the House of
Representatives in excluding the names of
the Georgia Representatives from the roll
of Members is now followed by tho dis
covery of a combination which has for its
object tho entire exclusion of the Georgia
Representatives from Congress.
The ground upon which it will be sought
to deny them admission is that the Stale
lias not fully complied with the recon
struction laws and is, therefore, not en
titled to representation in Congress.
The plan now seems to be to have a
Congressional Committee appointed with
power to send for papers, whieh will take
official cognizance of the expulsion of the
negro members from the Georgia Legisla
ture last Fall aud report Jo Congress upon
the same. Arab.

THE PEOPLE KNOW.—IF
there is anything the people thoroughly un
derstand, it is the comparative value of the various modi
cines offered forth'ir acceptance through the advertising
columns of he press. In Ecriutaral phrase, tliey try ul!,
but they held fast to that which is good. ll±nce a medi
cinal preparation thxt has been growing in favor with tbe
public lor a period of twenty yean , and has attained a larger
sale than any ether remedy $f its cUds ever reached in any
country, may be fairly entitled * Standard Specific, touch
ing .whose merits there is no room for controversy. Now,
iLis is precitely the position of UOSTETTEtV3STOMACH
HITTERS. Asa means of preventing and curing dys
pepsia, ordinary indigestion, biliousness, general debility,
and nervous affections, it has literally lived down ail com
petition, and legitimately taken its place as the foreniOEt
vegetable tonic on this continent, indeed,'on this hemis
phere. In view of this statistical fact, which may beread
ily verified by a reference to the Revenue returns, a lew
words of seasonable advice, in relation to the use of au article
in such general request, will not be considered egotistic or
out o; place. There is no season which suggests the nect s
giiy for a course of this agreeable invigorant inoie tigniil
cantly than the Fall. Tbe great contrast between the
temperature of tho nights and days, and the heavy mephitic
mists arising from extensive suriaces of decomposing vege
table m »tter, necessarily have a depressing effeit upon sys
tems partially exhausted by the heat of Summer, and
therefore greatly needing that strength and vigor which are
the.best safeguards against disease. Act'ngasa t' nic and
stomachic, a blood depurent, an alterative and au auti
billom medicine, ILOBTETTERS BITTERS exercise a
wholsesome influence upon every port on of the organization
and prepare it to mist every unhealthy influence. Hence its
value as a Fall medicine. nov2o«dl2Aw2

FERTILIZERS.
F. W. SIMS & CO,
COTTON FACTORS
AND
GENERAL COMMISSION MERCHANTS,
ARE NOW OFFERING FOR SALE THE. CELEBRATED
“WAJVDO.”
It is a FERTILIZER made in Charleston, from the wonderful phosphalic discoveries
near that oity, which have been pronounoed by Heientitic men the most valuable as well
as the most remarkable deposit of the kind known iu the world.
We ask a careful perusal of the following certificates selected from a large number of
an equally favorable character. Send lor a pamphlet.
DIKEfiTIONS FOll THE USE OF THE WAN DO FERTILIZER.
COTTON.
From 250 to 300 pounds per acre—on the list - bedded or in drill with the seed.
COIIN.
From 300 (o 400 pounds per acre, 200 to 300 pounds in the hill at the time of planting,
and the balance when the crop is 2$ to 3 feet high.
WHEAT.
Prepare the ground by deep plowing and harrowing. Apply, broadcast with the
seed, about 300 pounds to the acre, aud in the Spring from 100 to 200 pounds as a lop
dressing- This will ensure a largo yield.
POTATOES.
App'y the quantity designed for a u acre in the drill; 250 pounds lias usually given
an increase of four to one-
VEGETABLES.
Compost, always with stable rnauure or leal mould 300 to 400 pounds per acre,'in (ho
drill and under the seed.
T.J. Sartor, of Union District, S. G., by the use of two-horse plow and the
Wando Fertilizer, has been enabled to gather from a portion of lands forty-three bush
el* of wheat per acre: and from the average lands prepared in like manner, he has har
vested twenty-six and a half bushels per acre. Mr. Sartor is a large farmer, and, as
shown by the above statements, is an enterprising and successful one. This is the
largest average yield of wheat we have ever heard of in this State.
Blackville, S. C., October 28th, 1869.
Your favor of the 15th inst. is at hand, and, in reply, will give you the information
desired in regard to the Wando Fertilizer. L put out, the Ist February, fifteen bush
els compost manure to the acre, running u deep furrow, then ridged on it, and about
the Ist April ran a block over the ridge aud applied 100 lbs to the acre, throwing with
good turn plow, two furrows; and on the 15th I threw out the balance of the middle,
and planted my cotton. I think with the compost it would have yielded 600 lbs seed
cotton to the acre. I got per acre, with the Wando, 1,000 lbs seed cotton, which I
consider a short crop. The long drouth and excessively hot weather cut it off at least
one-fourth. I applied some on thin land, without anything else; that I gathered last
year 250 lbs to the acre, and this year gather 500 lbs, which show an increase of 100
per cent with the unfavorable seasons we have had. Used 100 lbs per acre on the thin
land above. B. J- Ray.
Bennettsville, S. C., Octobor 20th, 1860.
In reply to yours of 15th instant, it affords.me pleasuro to report favorably on the
Wando Fertilizer, as to its merits as a maim-e ’or cotton. I tried it on two of my plan
tations, side by side with Peruvian Guano, both in equal quantity and equal cost, uo
der cotton, on unmanured la id. Whore i uvui it dollar for dollar l think theyield will
be twenty-five per cent more than the Peruvian Guano, aud Where 1 used pound fin
pound I think the yield will be ten per cent more than the Peruvian Guano. \
Z. A. Drake.
Herndon, Burke Cos., Ga., October 25th, 1869.
We bought, last Spring, two tons Wando Fertilizer, and used it, side by side with
Peruvian, No. 1, and raw cotton seed, under the cotton crop alone, the eye guiding
solely in in its distribution, without reference to quantity, upon old land, with a deep
silicious bed from eighteen inches to two feet ami cropped, with little regard to rotation
more than half a century. Without an aciive manure, will not produce, under the
most favorablo seasons, more than 300 lbs of seed cotton, nor five bushels of com per
acre. The results are entirely satisfactory. The “ Wando” has yielded more than
Peruvian, and three times the quantity of.cotton seod, liberally applied as a fertilizer.
The present has been the most blighting and disastrous season known in this section
for thirty years, and concentrated fertilizers a failure, especially those not combining a
generous quantity of nitrogenous matter.
From the results of this crop we are satisfied the “ Wamlu" will prove a safe and
profitable fertilizer, and next year we shall prove “our faith by our works.”
J. 11. & 11. P. Jones, Junr.
Yorkville, S. C., October 25th, 1869.
I used Wando on coiion the presont year. 1 feel satisfied that I made 75 per cent
more cotton than I should have made without it. My crop suffered very much for
rain. ' P. B. Danin.
Greenville, S. C., October 13th, 1860.
Applied 1 ton to 11 acres of old, worn-out land (2 acres of which were in fruit t rees);
the season, UDtil July, was vory wet and linsc isonably cold, and succeeded by a very
severe drouth; replanted 8 acres of the 11, the st and being badly broken, on May 17th.
As the weather became warmer, and the plant seemed to have reached the manure,
which was drilled in quite deeply, the improvement in my crop became so remarkable
as to be noticed by all who chanced to sec it, assuming a deep green color, almost as
black as growing tobacco, and continued so until to-day, when wo had a heavy frost. T
am well pleased with the Wando, and will not in future plant a single row without if
To test its results, I left a few rows unmanured, and they had but a few bolls and
dwindling stalks. I think every man ought to use it to a large extent.
John Saxon.
Colleton Cos., July Ist, 1869.
Used tho Wando Fertilizer in Cotton the past year. The growth was very tine and
the yield 35 bags fc>ea Island cotton on 00 acres. On turnips, applying 450 lbs to the
acre, the size and yield were remarkably great. I think the Wando A No. I—the best
manure I have ever used. H. W. Stewaiit.
Wright’s Bluff, Clarendon Cos., S. C., September 6th.
I used one bag of Wando to the aero. I also used Peruvian Guano. I consider (he
Wando in money value equal in every respect to the Peruvian. 11. F. Tindal.
Fuoa Level, October 22d, 1869.
I used your Wando Fertilizer ou cotton this Spring, by the side of Peruvian Guano, a
The Wando caused the plant to grow off ahead of the Guano, gave it a better color and
matured it earlier. lam now using your Fertilizer under wheat and oats in preference
to Peruvian Guano, and so soon as they are gathered will give you the result.
Mathias Wicker.
Sumter Cos., October 23d, 1869.
I used about 1 sick (167 lbs.,) per acre, and in the same field planted a lew rows with
Peruvian Guano, estimating as nearly as 1 could judge the quantity in the ratio of R~
uost. It grew finely and did well until the drou> h and extreme hot weather set in. I
am satisfied in my own mind that the Wando Fertilizer (equalizing cost), is in all re
spects equal to Peruvian Guano. Matthew P. Mayes.
We are authorized by Mr. John 11. Dukes, Presi
dent of the Wando Mining and Manufacturing
Cos., to offer through the officers of the Georgia
State Fair a premium of SSOO for the best yield of
cotton from 10 acres of land manured with the
Wando Fertilizer- The award to be made by di
