CoDgrt o s ha.i aot yet liken any action co ■
the Georgia qaestiou.
The Senate Judiciary Committee met i
this morning, but most o: its entire time |
was consumed ia discussing the \ irginia I
clcetifin ami the right of the Senators
eLottJ by the Lc ; i-Lture of that State to j
seats in the S' ante.
The condition of affairs in Georgia was
briefly conridi.io'l by-thin Goairufl'ce to
day, hut without any report on the State
having yet been deovU i upon by its mem
ber.''.
The, two bills already introduced in the
Senate lor the Fcoond reeoostruction of the
State were al oup before the _eotnrnittee
for discussion• The first was introduced
by Senator Edmunds, Irom Vermont, at
the last session or Congress arid provides
that the oiigi al uiembors of the State
Lcgiplaturc sliali bo called together, the
negroes reseated ao l all the whites ineli
gible under the Fourteenth Amendment to
be expelled from the body.
The second ha-> been introduced by Sena
tor Morton, of Indiana, and after requir
ing the same action as the Edmunds bill
also require.) that tie Legislature shall
adopt the Fiftoc-.th Amendment before
the Suite is admitted to representation iu
Congress.
The Senate Judiciary Committee will
meet again to morrow morning and resume
the consideration of the bills, and will
probably agios upon their report before
adjourning.
From what 1 have learned tonight the
nature of the report, which will be made
by this Comiuitt"e appears to be a foregone
c jneln-ion. I have the very best authority
for stating that the Commttttee will, on
to morrow or within a very short time,
report a bill to the Seriate which will pro
vide, in substance, that the State shall ho
at ouce remanded t » the same condition
it was in at tile time of the assembling of
tire first L 'girl iture; that the negro mem
bers ahull be reseated and all the whites
di: qualified by the third section of the
four teenth amendment be expelled. B.
Washington, DooemW u, p. m.—On
yesterday the Judiciary Committee of the
Heuatr In IJ another session for the pur
pose (ii’nonsiilcriag the present condition
of affairs ‘"rif ting in Georgia. The meet
ing was a protracted orio and lasted for
several hpurfs. .if nr tha examination of
severai vitno- cs of the extreme Radical
stripe with rtgsid to the lawlessness of the
people of thus State and the frequent out
rages pcri'Ctratoi upon the colored race
and the members of the Republican party,
the Committee declared itself satisfied anu
determined upon a report to the Senate.
THE HILL TO UK REPORTED HT THE COM ‘
.Mil TEE.
This report is to bskio the firm of a bill
and will 1“ preiented' to the Senate at it H
session on next Mori iuy morning. The
bill will embody the views of the President
on this subject as contained in his message
to Congress Its provisions art) in sub
stance us follows: Air*!, the Governor of
the State shall bo empowered to issue his
proclamation withiu.a rosonable length of
time calling togo'her the original members
of the Legislature who were elected under
the reconstruction acts in 1868; Secondly,
the Legislature when convened shall or
ganize by the members taking tho oath
prescribed in the rceonstiuctiop laws;
and, Thirdly, no members shall be
allowed to take their seats who arc in
eligible under the third section of the
fourteenth amendment.
ItUI.LOCK PLUCKING BLODGETT’S LAURELS•'
Governor l.ulloek was one of the wit
nesses who testified before the Commutes
with regard to the condition of Georgia.
His testimony wa; of the strongest kind
against allowing the Slate admission uoti (
the reconstruction laws had bean complied
with. He gave a detailed eonount of the
outrages perpetrated upon tho negroes udJ
Republicans and did not think that these
could livo in the .State without receiving
protection from Congress.
GEORGIA Will. NOT BE GOUHI.F.I) IM
MEDIATELY.
Although this bill will be reported by
the Committee to' the Senate bn Mouqay
the Conservatives here to nig'’, express
the opinion that no a dion will be <aken in
the matter for some time yet. They suy
that the point will be raised that the
Georgia Legislature has not had the op
portunity to reseat the negro members
siuoe the decision of the State Supreme
Court was made affirming their eligibility
to office. This side .ot the ([Uestion has
already been presented to the attention of
the more moderate members of both
Houses and is thought to have had a good
deal of effdfct.
STRIKE, HI T HEAR.
The Conservatives now believe that
when this’bill is reported a motion will he
made to postpone its consideration uutil
some time in next January, in order that
the Legislature may be given time to aet
in the matter. It is thought that this dis
position of the bill will be urged on the
ground of justice, aud that a postponement
will be carried.
GRANT STlt.I. TOUCHY ON " THE GOLD
SWINDLE.
fin last Thursday, in the House of Rep
resentatives. Mr. John Fox (Democrat), of
New York, introduced a resolution direct-
ing an inquiry to be made into the causes
ot the gold conspiracy ot last Fall, aud the
parties to blame iu that transaction. Both
yesterday and to-day the President and
Secretary of tho Treasury have been usiug
the whole of their influence with Con
gressmen for the purpose of preventing
the passage of this resolution.
There is no doubt that if it were not for
this opposition the resolution would pass.
The Kepubicau members would all vote iu
its favor but for Us unpleasant reference
to Grant. The resolution will be called
up and pressed to a vote on Monday and
it will then he seen what effect Grant's
wishes have upon Congressmen's votes.

COMMERCIAL.
GENERAL BUSINESS—Trade for tbe past week has
been onlv moderate, notwithstanding the large num
ber ot farmers aud country, merchants that were in
j town. At tliis time of the year merchant* generally
I look for a good business, but the scarcity oi money
. has n tarded trade to a great extent. There has been
l little or no change in prices since last week. Sugars
1 are off a little. Bacon—light stock, demand fair.
J Bulk meats more called for with moderate arrivals.
! The rise of hogs in the West causes dealers to hold
\ stiff. Flour is in fair demand without change. But
. little Corn offering but stiff at quotations. Wheat nn
v hanged.

Again.— Notwithstanding our explicit
language on a former occasion, we hare
had several additional inquiries addressed
to us,as to whether we reilly supposed the
Henderson Sche * e was not likely to be
another “Paschal House" affair. We de
sire to state emphatically onee for ail that
there is no more similarity between the
two than between night and day. How-,
ever much confidence we or others may
have placed in the promises of the meu
managing the Paschal House concern,
they undoubtedly belied their promises
ana acted the rascal at last. But in that
case the public had Miking but their prom
ises to depend on. In the Henderson
Sct.eme it matters not who the men are or
u-hat their promises, we have the law to
! bin i them to a fulfillment of their en
t gagements. But when we add to this, that
I the whole thing i3 iu the hands of men of
the highest moral and financial integrity
aud the most successful Bank Cashiers, it
j makes the Scheme the soundest aud most
attractive that has been or probably ever
• will be offered in the United States.'

Wnndn P to yours of 15th instant, it affords me pleasure to report favorably on the
v ando 1 ertilizer, as to Us merits as a manure for cotton. I tried it on two of tnv plan
tations, side by side with Peruvian Guano, both in equal quantity and equal colt un
er cotton, on unoianured land. \\ here I used it dollar for dollar I think the yield will
be twenty-five per cent more than the Peruvian Guano, and where I used pound Im
pound I think the yteld will be ten per cent more Than the PemvYau Guana ° F

\ir 1 . , , Herndon, Burke Cos., Ga., October 25th, 1869.
We bought, last cprmg, two tons W ando Fertilizer, and used it, side by side with
Peruvian, No. 1, and raw cotton seed, und r the cotton crop alone, the eye guiding
solely in in its distribution, without reference to quantity, upon old land, with a deep
sihctous bed from eighteen inches to two feet and cropped, with little regard to rotation
more than half a century. Without an active manure, will not produce, under the
moat lavorable seasons, more than 300 lbs -f seed cotton, nor five bushels of corn per
acre. Ihe results areicntuely satisfactory. The “ Wando” has yielded more than
* ar ‘, m re p tlm ?i S of cotton seed, liberty applied as a fertilizer.
, Hf- prcsent has been the most p.ightiug 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. J
From the results of this crop we are satisfied the “ Wando" will prove a safe and
proatable fertilizer, and next year we shall prove “our faith by our works.”

more cotton than I should have made without it. My crop suffered very much for
rain ’ P. B. Danin.
a j• ,i , , „ „ Greenville, S. C., October 13th, 1869.
Applied 1 ton to 11 acres of old, worn-out laud (2 acres of which were in fruit trees)-
the seasou, until July, was very wet and unseasonably cold, and suococded by a very
severe drouth; replanted 8 acres of the 11, life stand being badly broken, on May 17th
As the weather became warmer, and the plan:, seemed to have reached the manure,
which was drilled id quite deeply, the improvement in my crop became so remarkable
as to be noticed by all who chanced to see it, assuming a deep green color, almost as
black as growing tobacco, and continued so until to day, when we had a heavy frost. 1
am well pleased with the Waudo, and will not in future plant a single row without it.
Jo test its results, I left a few rows unmanured, and they had hut a few bolls and
dwiDUiiDg stalks. I think every man ought to use it to a large extent.

I used your Wando Fertilizer on cotton this Spring, by the side of Peruvian Guano.

1 used about 1 sick (16i lbs.,) per acre, and in the same field planted a few rows with
1 eruvion Guano, estimating as nearly as 1 could judge the quantity in the ratio of its
cost. Itgrew finely and did well uutil the drouth and extreme hot weather set in I
am satisfied in my own mind that the Wando Fertilizer (equalizing cost), is in ali re
spects equal to Peruvian Guano. Matthew P. Mayes.
