(tUvanielc & J>cutiucL A L <i ISTA, GA : WKDNKaUU MORNIS6, I'F.BRI AK¥ Hi. Go,a Panic Investigation. The Back "rig Committee, who examined lifr. A. Ij. Brown, detective !>t the Gold Exchange Bank >1 New \ r ml Mr. Tinker, of the Western Union T ■ 'rapfc Com pen v in Washington, are stiii tionn dcring ah >ut in a sea of doubt and wy.-ti fieatiou concerning the black hriday bus ness. The testimony taken covers about three thousand pages ot manuscript, and the givings-out from the majority of the cammitten are to the effect that no proof has been furnished tuffi lent to implicate the President or v y high Washington official. The evidence is said to show that the riDg in New York, previous to the panic, offered to carry half a million for Mrs. Grant and General Porter; hut that both refused to have .anything to do with the scheme In this connection a report, has circulated outside the committee room i in regard to a box received about that'ime : at the Adams Express office, directed to ! Mrs. Grant, and said to contain $25,000, j but nothing of this has come before the | committee. The te.timooy of Ford C. j Bar 1 ' a.c, a New. York reporter, who ap peared before the committee on Saturday, was mostly hearsay, and docs not altogether correspond with the givings-out from the committee. This gentleman, it appears, became familiar (after the panic) with many circumstances, allegations, and iumors in regard to it, through interviews With mem bers of the _ gold ling, and others. Thu princi) al points of his testimony are un derstood to be tl ese : th.it Abel Id. Corbin, the Presidents brother-in-law, was mixed ud in the whole business, disgracefully, from the beginning; that, he first pro posed to get (Jathyrwood an pointed As sista it Treasurer in New York, with the intention of using him in that position for the forwarding of his own and the gold ring’s schemes; that he finally, distrust ing (Jatherwood, urged and assisted in pro curing the appointment of Butterfield, with whom lie had been concerned for years, and whom he hoped to make a tool-; that, having got Butterfield in the office,ho represented to the gold ring that he was inclose communion, not only with him, but with the White House, and urged the ring to act on tho strength of bis representa tions, but tflatin fact, Butterfield did not keep Corbin informed, so that Corbin dealt with the ring under false pretences. This testimony would scent to shield Butter field, whose alleged complicity in the specu lations is understood to be pretty •well in dies ted by other and more direct evidance. Second, That not Corbin alone, but Dent, another of the President's family relations, was as deeply concerned as the former in the matter ; that Dent made representa tions to the ring, which induced them to send on $(10,000 worth of goods to the White House duiing tho ripening of tho scheme, goods consisting ot stationery, rugs, and other coHtly articles of household furniture;md ornament , that t,.0 Presi dent was absent from Washington wlicii these goods arrived, and that on his re turn, learning Irom what course they came, lie immediately ordered them to be packed and reshipped to Now York ; and that they were so repacked and re shipped. Third, That when Secretary Bout, well went on to New York, some ton days before the crisis, his errand there did not culufinate, as was at the time asserted in a dinner with Severn! editors and p- litieians, but in a conference with Butterfield, who then and there un folded to him wlmr he (Butterfield) tlu-D knew, or hud heard, ot the plans of the gold ring; so that Mr. Boutwcl had amplie preliminary advice of what was going or. Fourth, that. a leading politician of the Republican party in the State of New York, whose name did not come cut in the testimony and has never been published in connection with I lie affair, wrote a letter to Cathcrwood during the period of the conspiracy, announcing the programme and disclosing himself as an associate of the ring. Some other parts of this hearsay tes timony refer to a letter said to have been written by Secretary Boutwell to Jay Uould. -The testimony seems to have been •suggestive rather Ilian positive, aud if the committee wtre disposed to get at all the evidence, it might be thought necessary to summon Secretary Boutwell, Dent and Catherword to elucidate the doubts still pending.— World. The l*»lloou Ascension. Messrs- Editors : Below I givo you a brio! account of uiy last ascension Iroin Augusta, which I hopo mav prove inter esting to your readers. At fifteen minutes past four, the preparations being all com plete, the balloon was allowed to swing by a single rope, the ballast was adjusted, and rising clear above the reach ol those below, the cable was loosed and the voy age began. The wind was high, and I moved off rapidly in a nor.thcaste; ly direc tion. 1 knew by the shouts of tbo people, which were given with a will, that my bal loon ascension thus far had proved satis factory, and 1 began to look around on t he grand scene presented to my view. The atmosphere was veiy clear, giving mo a prospect bounded only by the horizon, which was sharply defin 'd, and which pre sented a hue unbroken by any mountain ous projections arouud us entire circum ference. The whole lace of the country appeared exceeding level, though occa sionally I saw some hills, but the general appearanoe was that of a vast plain. I had a fine view of the city just at the start, hut in consequence of moving away si fast, 1 could hut notice its genera! appearance of regularity and neatness. Hearing a (rain of cars beneath, l looked down and found that 1 had overtaken the Charleston train, and was having a lively race with them. They tried hard, as I have since learned, to keep up with me, but in vain. I crossed the road diagonal y, and lett them away behind. At half-past lour 1 had reached the height of one mile, and feeling a little chilly, put on my overcoat. To the left of my course 1 saw three vil lageS'-they wore Graniteville, Aiken and t Blaekville. The general appearance of I the country was as it the whole face of it Lhad boec once a complete forest and spaces wade here and there by clearing off the t>er, thus leaving tho great iua* of Hpods, and dotting the country over with ■nutations. Occasionally I canm low enough to hear voices of below, but though I tried repeatedly to get some information of uiy whereabouts, 1 failed to elicit any response to my questions. As l passed over one hou*e l felt quite sure ihat the dwellers therein had received a terrible scare, for the women were scream ing in a terrible manner, aided by a single male voice. The wind bore uic rapidly by the place, and 1 had tuy quiet laugh at their oxi en.se, when l saw a flash near the door ol the house, followed by the report o. a gun. 1 have no doubt the shot was intended for the balloon, but I was out of the reach of any ordinary guu, and so bad another laugh to myself 1 heard a num l.erot shots tired during the tri , but sup posed tbat they were either tired by huuts luen, or else simply to attract uiy attention. At pri cist ly o o'clock, l crossed the South ('art lint Railroad about eight or ten miles southeast of Blaekville. I saw no more villages after this ; the country had same ness of character, varying only in showing a greater number of plantations and a larger area of woodlands. Asa sail on the water is a good appetizer, so is a voyage in the air, aud this was no exception. Being well provisioned, 1 partook of a hearty -upper, stopping occasionally to observe the movements of the balloon, and to put out a little sand occasionally, for Dc -un was getting lower, and the ga« that had been warmed by its rays was cooling and condensing, thus gradually losing a portion of its buoyancy. Night was ap proaching, and, though l felt sure that it should be moonlight l looked in vain for the silvery orb. Thinking I must be mis taken, l thought of landing without further delay, aud looking below .found that tbo sun's rays bad left the earth, though it was still shining on the balloon : in passing over some water almost directly beneath me ti e reflection of the moon on its surface, bright as the original, caught my eye ; the balloon had hidden it from me, so 1 continued on my journey. During "the day-light I had noticed smoke curling up from the woods in many j Lc.s. but now ail over tV tf country, noar and far, the tirei, could be j«tn, lairly sprinkling the earth with lights; in some places they were -i uuruerous and near tc getiier t ai they give in the distance the exact appeauuce ot a lurgo city, with its thousands ot gas-light.-. 1 thought at the time, however, that no matter how tine to look upon, they would be danftcrous places to come in contact with when uniting. 1 looked at my compass occasionally, and sometimes found myself going north, of east and sometimes south east, the upper current carrying me in the latter direction. 1 did not know my (X4Ct whereabouts, but hoped I was ce-ring Charleston, and this caused tue to continue the voyage longer than I otherwise should have done. The moon did meg nod service in the reflections given as I passed along, showing the eraet nature of the whether swamps or dry land. It was past seven o'clock, when suddenly I left behind lue all signs of cultivation and started into what seemed to me to be the beginning of a district bearing a character entirely differ ent from anything that had come und r my observation before. I knew I mus‘ be approaching the Atlantic, and though 1 could make it out in the distance, and it now struck me that possibly I might ha\ • nothing better before me than that which w.-.s now under me. I bad ttru -k_ the swam p/in the vicinity of the Santee river, and being overflowed Fy the river, they presented for miies the most uninviting prospect for a landing I ever beheld, and my relief can be imagined wheu I pa.-.-td again to dry land. I tow allowed the balloon to settle grad ually, with the view of landing as soon as an opportunity offered. I floated aioeg fi r some time, however, before a clearing came in my way; when this came at last in the shape of a field walled around by a thick woods, the rate of speed at which [ was travelling and the uncertainty with a hieh height is measurer* by the eye.iu the absence of daylight, showed me the difficulty of landing under such circum ■ lance-. The attempt mad -, howev-. er, hut without success, just touching she tree tops on the opposite side of the lot. I bad one bag of ballast left. It waj imme diately thrown over, and kept the balloon out of the trees for a while, but it soon setilcd again, and brushed the tops of five or six pines, causing it to rebound from fifty to one hundred feet. ThH brought to view another field just ahead, on which were a number of naked dead pines. To have the balloon impaled oil one of these is probably the most dangerous position in which lhe teronaut could be placed, and 1 would much rather have taken the chances among the green pines, but my ballast was gone. I quickly let go my drag rope, hoping to clear them by letting the rope drag instead of carrying its dead weight in the basket, but jt was not enough, and in another mo ment. the “Hyperion” dashed broadside against one of the tallest of these fiendish looking skeletons and was fastened in its arms; the sudden escape of all the gas inu.-t of course follow, and what then? I jumped on to the edge of the basket, seized the drag rope with my hands, took a turn around one leg, and the next mo ment would have been safe upon the ground; but the gas had escaped in less time than it took me to make my prep arations, and with a crash the rotten limbs gave way, and the whole mass fell together. The distance from the ground must have been from fifty to sixty feet, aod how I escaped with whole Lodcs seems to me, at this moment, a miracle. The shock was terrible. I arose immediate ly to my feet, staggering about like a drunken man,and yet astonished that I was able to do so much. I soon regained strength, however, sufficient to enable me to reach a house near by, where I found I some very intelligent colored people, who did all that lay in their power to render me the a -istance I needed- I suffered much pain during the night, and did not pretend to sleep; hat by Thursday afternoon Iliad so far recovered as to be able to see to the packing of the wreck of the balloon,and at 7 o’clock that evening I started in a wagon for Gourdiu Station, on the Northeastern Railroad, fifty miles Irom Charleston and eighteen miles from where I land ed. The place of my descent was in the extreme Southwestern portion of Claren don county, §. C., on the plantation of Mrs. Geo. B. Golby. Oa Fiiday morning 1 took the ears«for Charleston, and left for Augusta the same evening. The trip in the balloon was made in about three hours and a hail, and the distance tnade not less thin one hundred and thirty miles. I cannot conclude this article without thanking, most heartily, the many friends who have, in various ways, contributed to make this affair a success, and should they think well of it, I propose to make another ascension during the visit of the tiiomcn to this city. Yours, truly, S. A. Kino. I)r. Sam D.ird In fuck. Some sixteen years ago, there came from Northern lands anew political star into this our Louisiana, bearing tho sig nificant name of Bard—Dr. Samuel Bard —to be more particular. Fpw knew any thing about bis antecedents, or indeed busied themsehes in the least about them, for those were nays ofliberal ideas. Those who were acquainted with his personal history, sakl that he was from New York, and followed the two very inconsistent callings of dentist and preacher, until he became also editor of a country paper in the northern part of this State. It did not require a long acquaintance by those who came into eon’act with him, to ascer tain that Bard was an individual who had a high appreciation of his own exalted merits, and who never hid his lights under bushel measures. About that time there chanced to assem bled at Baton Rouge, a Democratic Con vention, to nominate candidates for State officers. Bard was there, and industrious in impressing upon the delegates his ex traordinary personal merit, and, when it was ascertained that no one else aspired to the nomination (or the post of Superin tendent of Public Education, he promptly and patriotically let it be known that he was ready to take that position. After his election he quietly installed himself in his official residence, made no attempt at show, for really he was about as much fit to discharge the duties of the office as a second-class boy in a country school, and regularly and quietly drew his saiary as the quarterday came round. Unlike the ambitious and pretentious Conway of this day, he made no exertions to extend his powers, but left edueablo children to their fate. under the supervision of their parents. When the war came about, Bard got a commission in the Confederate army, and, with admirable tact, always managed to get into safe and comfortable berths. While the struggle was going on, he took it into his head to enter upon a course of theological study, with a view to taking orders in the Protestant Episcopal Church; but fur some cause ho soon changed his miDd, and by the time the war was ended, it is said that ho could swear as round and emphatic an oath as a Texas cavalryman. W hen the conflict ended, he returned to Louisiana, and set up an agency in this city, to supply free labor to planters ; hut not succeeding in that, he transported his household gods to Atlanta, where he man aged to star a newspaper, which soon es poused the Radical cause with great en thusiasm, and now we behold him reward ed with the Governorship of the far-away territory of Idaho, and we may expect that ho will not long delay in making it a State and himself one of its Senators in Congress. Here, no one soon failed to discover that Bard was all things to all men, and not to be relied on by any one as to any pledge, promise, or assertion. \Y cannot congratulate the Idaho peo ple upon their new Governor ; but we feel certain that neither the Louisiana or Geor gia people will be grieved to learn that he has got so far way from them that it is not likely he will ever again make Iris appear ance in either State. — j.V. O. Picayune. Almost a liital accident took place in Wilcox, Gibbs & Co.’s guano mill, at Sa vannah, Tuesday. ’The engine blew out the cylinder head, and seriously scalded the eugineer. The Putnam County Fair Company is making arrangements to extend its opera tions into the surrounding counties. As soon as the Secretary can prepare the books, they will be sent to Greene, Mor gan, Jasper, Jones, Baldwin, Hancock and Newton.— Telegraph. The Amerious Courier is calling for a cotton factory and closer railroad com munication with the eoa.-t. Very easy to have both—move to Augusta. Colonel John Screven has beeb unani mously re-elected President of the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad. Small pox, in its most violent form, has appeared in Upson county, but the Ordi nary promptly established a hospital and quarantine regulations, thus preventing the spread of the disease. BY TELEGRAPH. FROM WASHINGTON. SPECIAL TELEGRAPHIC CORRESPONDENCE OF THE CHRONICLE & SENTINEL. Washington, February 10, P- M. Although Bullock and his delegation have been actively at work here for some days past, he seems to make but little im pression upon the Republicans, and his star is decidedly on the wane. The mem bers of Congress are rapidly beginning to find out his tricks and falsehoods. In the Senate Judiciary Committee on yesterday, when the Georgia matter wasup for discussion, Senator Edmunds, of \ er mont, said that Bullock had misled Con gress “in relation to the condition of affairs in Georgia when the recent Georgia bill was passed and had already been detected in two lies upou that subject. Senator Cockling, of New \orki sup ported Edmund’s views, and also implied by his remarks that Buiiock had been lying- ' ... Senator Carpenter, ot Wisconsin, lack ed up Edmunds and Conklins, and charac terized PuHock’s conduct in very severe terms. Besides this Bullock stands convicted, cn the authority of the President, of having misrepresented the latter, through the Associated Press dispatches and the Washington press, with reference to a con versation on the status of Senators Hill and Miller and the acts of the Legislature of Georgia. Buiiock, Blodgett, and the rest of their delegation, will appear before the Judieia i ry Committee on Saturday. The delegation of Conservative Repub- I Ik-ians have been instructed to draw up ail ■ iheir barges of alleged peculations aod nu ll *fui conduct agiinst Bullock and have them printed for the use of the Committee at the meeting on Saturday. Bullock has b.i-u notified to present his answer at the svne time. G-m. Terry had an interview with the President to-day, concerning- military af fairs in Gecrgia. Politi*3 were not dis cas-ed. The New York Tribune of to-day says of the case of Georgia, “the rnaia thing Con gress has to do, is to hasten the admission of the State into the Union." Washington, February 11, P. M. Bullock appears to have abandoned the field in disgust, after the a-saults made upon him by Radical Senators, and left Washington for Atlanta to-day*. He has left Judge William Gibson here to fight bis battles for him in his absence. It is thought that General Terry will be summoned to appear at the meeting of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which takes place to-morrow, to testify on Georgia af fair:- and the manner in which the Legisla ture was organized by himself and Bullock. Joshua Hill and Miller, United States Senators elect from Georgia, are sail to have received assurances from high Radi cal sources that when they apply for ad mission to the Senate next week they will bo allowed to take their seats, thus defeat ing Bullock’s great movement. The delegation of anti-Bullockites which is here has been, working hard, and appa rently not unsuccessfully. Themcmbersof - the delegation are in excellent spirits, and ; are very-hopeful of accomplishing the work j which brought them here. The fight over the vacant bench in the | Supreme Court is’still progressing, with I chances in favor of Bradley’s rejection. If Bradley is rejected by the Senate, Georgians ! here think’ that the President will nomi- I nate Amos T. Akerman for the position, and that he will be confirmed. Washington, February 12, P. M. The two Georgia delegations appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee this morning, to testify in relation to tho condition of affairs in that State. Judge William Gibson headed the Bul lockite delegation, and read a printed statement to tne Committee, signed by himself and his associates, Blodgett, Par rot and others, of the way in which the organization of the Legislature had been perfected. The paper was a most weak performance and fell flat. In accordance with the programme and the previous notification of the committee Judge Gibson also presented a printed paper defending Bullock from the charges of peculation, etc., which had been pre ferred against him. Gibson also gave in some other docu ments, and was asked a few questions by different members of tho committee with regard to affairs in Georgia, to which he returned replies hastily prepared in manu script. J. 11. Caldwell appeared before the com mittee as the representative ot the anti- Bulloekue delegation, and made a state ment oti the Georgia situation, which was entirely free from anything like personal feeling or partisanship, and he was likened to with great attention by the members of the committee. One of the questions asked Mr. Cald well by the committee was, “What, in your opinion, would bo the best course for Congress to pursue for promoting the in terests of the State of Georgia ?” Mr. Caldwell replied, “We do not wish to be thrown back in confusion and tumult, which would be the case if the previous acts of the Legislature are declared invali dated by Congress.” Mr. Caldwell repudiated, in behalf of himself and the rest of the conservative delegation, the request made by J. E, Bryant that Congress would declare the present organization of the Legislature illegal and order the work to be done over again. He said that Mr. Bryant had speken in his individual capacity without consulting tho rest of the delegation. What the delegation desired was that Congress would recognize the present Legislature and allow the former election of United States Senators to stand. Caldwell’s answer seemed to give general satisfaction and made an evident impres sion upon the Committee. The friends of Senator Miller are very confident that he will be allowed to take his seat in the Senate; but Hill’s (?) chances are considered more doubtful. ‘ Home Evidence.” Reach Island, January 5, 1870. . Messrs. Stovall & Edmondston, Augus ta, Ga : I am pleased to say that the Patapseo Guano, which I purchased of you last spring, gave eulire satisfaction. On a small patch of poor pine land, containing 4J acres (3J of which was main, red at the rate of 400 lhs. per acre, and one at tho rate of 200 lbs.) I gathered three bales of Cotton weighing over 4 0 lbs. each. This, consid ering the extreme heat and pro traded drought, I regard as a very line yield. Had the season been favorable, I have no doubt that I would have gathered a bale to the acre. A portion of the laud was very poor, and would not liave paid for the cultivation without manure. Yours, veiy respectfully, T. W. WIIATLEY. febl2—sasu.fcwl Saint Louis Provision Market. Saint Louis, January 31,1870, Editors Chronicle ifc Sentinel: l’be month closes without any material variation in the market lor Breadstuffs, and is V\ heat is now being sold at a less price than u costs to produce it, we think, the tendency will l.e toward appreciation rather than appreciation of prices, since with present prices there is but bttki to en courage the sowing of a great breadth of land in the Spring. Flour has dee iued in fall proportion to Wheat, ami to-day is cheaper, considered relatively with its worth as food, than any ot her produe • At tiie .''oath the larger proportion of Flour now passing into consumption, is Fall lines, supers, single extrasand Spring doubles, ranging from #4 00 to $5 00, and ruling firm, and the order trade for these grades will cause them to continue to rule very firm for the next three months. In Provisions it is difficult to lay down premises iroin which to judge the future. Prices have receded from the high poiut of last summer to a figure which leaves no profit to the packer, and below which it would seem difficult to depress them. The stocks here are not large, and those at interior points are not equal to those ot last year. Mess Pork is hell at $27.50. Bulk Meats are firmly held at 15c for clear sides, 141 for clear rib, and|lle for should ers. Bacon is in light stock and in good demand at 16jc for clear sides, 16 for dear rib, anil 13 for shoulders. With the present large consumptive de mand, which almost weekly clears the market, there is no immediate prospect ot any accumulation of smoked meats. Our shipping facilities, which of late bive been so disarranged, are now assum ing a more reliable and expeditious shape. Arrangements will soon be perfected that wiii entirely overcome the vexatious delay ot C ilunbu-, Ky., and to a great extent relieve the crowding of the railroads from Memphis and Vicksburg, and we hope '.ion to be enabled to advise a resumption | of the “Green Line” route from llick : man, Kv , which is being rapidly re paired.

Liverpool closed dull at ll j alljd for Uplands, and ll|d for Orleans. During the week there has been very little done either here or in Liverpool. The receipts daiiy pointed to a large total for the week, and buyers demanded more con cession than holders would yield. The decline here on Middling has been }c., on good Ordinary the quotation is fc lower. Liverpool prices are jo to -J-d off, under the large receipts and exports from this side and arrivals of 90,000 baljs. The quota tion for Middling Orleans is now Ufd against 12}d same time 'ast year. It is a matter of some surprise to the trade, that such heavy receipts should have so little effect on prices. The excess over last year is now 390,000 bales, which would make the crop 2,650,000, if the overland shipments for the season, and the receipts at the ports from now on, were the same as last year. But is believed that the.overland shipments direct to the mills may be 100,000 bales less than last year. If this is so, it would require a further excess of 100,000 bales to briDg up the crop to 2,650,000 or 200,000 more ex cess to bring it up to 2,750,000. Bombay. —We have not as yet received our dispatch giving total shipments from Bombay for January. We hear i t returned at 30,000 bales, to Europe , against 46,261 in 1869. The February shipments were estimated at 100,000 —one-half through the Canal. Last February the shipments were 100,963, of which 22,515 were by steamer and Suez Railroad. The latest news from India is not encouraging, and estimates of the expected supply thence were being reduced.
