the immediate relief of the College, the fol
lowing is the assessment:

The Presiding Elders are requested at
once to make the assessments on their
charges, and to urge immediate colic lions.
A. M. CHHETTZBETta.
Charleston District.
The preachers of th 6 Charleston District
will regard the following as the assessment
on their charges:
Trinity $l4O
Bethel 140
Walterboro 130
St. George’s 110
Providence .. 110
St. Matthew's 105
Spring St ... 75
Cypress 50
Eastern Orange 50
Upper St. Matthews 50
Cooper River 40
81,000
Will my brethren bear with me while I
remind them of the crisis reached in its
fortunes. Shall the College go down for the
want of their fostering care ? I know the
men of this District, not one of them but
can succeed in any enterprise resolved upon.
I would suggest that it is not advisable to
wait for some public occasion to make a
collection. Indeed, I doubt the propriety
of a public collection at all, for those not
disposed to give discourage those who are,
and their cold, averted look chills the spirit
of benevolence, if it does not engender de
termined opposition. Let me advise you to
look over your societies, select the most
large-hearted, go to them, spend an hour or
two in showing the pressing necessities of
the college ; then you may be sure five or
ten dollars from each will reward your labor,
instead of that beggarly amount from fifty
or one hundred. If you intend to raise the
amount during the first quarter, not a day
must be lost. Every one you meet yon must
solicit. If you only do it, success is as
sured ; if not, results shall boas formerly,
and our college perish through indifference
and lack of effort. A. M. Chbeitzberg.

DOMESTIC NEWS.
Washington, December 19.—Drake took the
lion-clad oath, and assumed the Chief Justiceship
of the Court of Claims. This Is the only court
which exacts this oath. The Judiciary Commit
tee of the House agreed to report the Senate bill
for the relief of purchasers of lands sold by direct
acts In the South. The agricultural report esti
mates the cotton crop at 3,800,000. The House
Military Committee disagreed to the Senate bill
extending the time for reducing the army. The
following is the estimate yield per acre, and total
yield of bales of cotton in the following States:
North Carolina, 175 pounds per acre, 170,000 bales;
South Carolina, 170 pounds, 5120,000 bales; Geor
gia, 173 pounds, 495,000 bales; Alabama, 165
pounds, 510,000 bales; Mississippi, 205 pounds,
725,000 bales; Louisiana, 250 pounds, 495,000 bales;
Texas, 240 pounds, 465,000 bales; Arkansas, 245
pounds, 375,000 bales; Tennessee, 190 pounds, 215,-
000 bales; other States, 170 pounds, 180,000 bales.
The crop is within 18 per cent, of that of 1869.
xtop crop has matured well, producing a less
a. Jt and discolored fibre than usual. The pro
duction of Sea Island cotton is comparatively
short. The report says the Sea Islands are now
nearly occupied by freedmen, who are not progres
sing, and are scarcely industrious enough to work.
New York, December 19.—Several hundred
brakemen of the Erie Railroad have struck, alleg
ing It simply Impossible to sustain life on less
than two dollars per day. The strikers carried
away the coupling pins from Hornetsvllle. Hun
dreds of freight cars are blocked. Stock Is dying
on the cars. Matters were so threatening yester
day that the sheriff of Steuben county swore In as
deputies one-half the male population of Homets
ville, and subsequently called out a regiment of
militia. The passenger trains are unmolested,
but freight is completely blocked.
Washington, December 16.—Morton offered a
resolution in the Senate, requesting the President
to communicate to the Senfite all information in
his possession relative to organized bodies of dis
loyal and evil-disposed persons in the State of
North Carolina, which have in view or threaten re
sistance to the execution of the laws of the United
States, or the denial to United States citizens of
the equal protection of the laws, and their rights
under the Constitution; and also what murders
and outrages for political purposes have been com
mitted by such organizations. The resolution was
adopted. The President was requested to com
municate any information he had relative to out
rages upon loyal citizens in North Carolina. Drake
took the floor to reply to Schurz’s stabbing the
Republican party in cold blood. “A devilish con
spiracy” was among the milder epithets of Drake’s
denunciation of Schurz. Schurz made a brief reply.
Washington, December 16.—Roderick R. But
ler, of the First District of Tennessee, was indicted
by a Grand Jury here to-day, for forgery, in signing
the names of petitioners to documents, whereby
he received the pension money due them. A bench
warrant was issued, and he will be arrested.
FOREIGN.
Wilhelmshohe, December 12. —The Emperor
lain perfect health. The Emperor declares he
will never return to Paris supported by military
power. The people, four times, approved his
election. They alone have the power to restore
him.
Berlin, December 15.— The Prussian Govern
ment declares that the great powers concern them
selves about Luxemburg in the face of Luxem
burg’s plain violation of her guaranteed neutrality,
in the interest of the French. Prussia, therefore,
reserves to herself full freedom in respect to her
future course.
Havre, December 15.—The Prussians have en
tirely withdrawn from this part of France.
London, December 15. —Montmedy has surren
dered. Several engagements have occurred in
that neighborhood, which were generally favorable
to the French. The Monxteur says the French have
been reinforced at all points.
Bordeaux, December 17. —The Prussians did
not attack General Chausey yesterday, Chausey
having received many reinforcements. It is un
derstood the Generals commanding the armies of
the Loire have concerted a plan for a simultaneous
forward movement, all having been largely rein
forced. The Germans are retreating all along the
valley of the Loire. The French in the North
have gained fresh advantages. Havre will be de
fended to the last.
Disos,(December 17.—The Prussians attacked
the French near Langean and drove them Into the
fortress. The military commandant at Tours has
been relieved for the precipitate evacuation of that
place.
London, December 17.—The journals to-day,
referring to the triumph of the peace party in the
Cabinet, say the Government has signed England’s
abdication a3 a great power.
Berlin, December 17.—Russia’s reply to Prus
sia's note regarding Luxemburg says the King of
Holland must disprove the charges brought
against the Duchy, or give guarrantees that the
obligations of the neutrality shall not be violated
again. If, however, the charges are proved,
Prussia is justified in annexing Luxemburg. The
French were driven from Vendome yesterday.
Bordeaux, December 15.—The sub-Prefect of
Havre, in a report received here, denies having
sent a dispatch announcing a French victory at
Paris. He maintains, however, that there is a
general and precipitant retreat of the Prussians.
Paris letters of the 9th announce the situation
good. The repulse of the army of the Loire and
recapture of Orleans have [not discouraged the
Parisians. There is a general demand for more
sorties and a universal approval of the answer sent
by General Trochu to General Moltke, and the
people all say they will resist to the last. The
measures taken by the Government since the com
mencement of the siege are accepted by the pop
ulation. Having Insured itself against waste of
provisions, of which there are enough fresh on
hand to last until February, the Government will
again have fresh meat rationed to the inhabitants
Other provisions are sufficient to last six months.
Berlin, December 13.—Bismarck’s organ in
sists upon a convocation of consuls general, and
that there should be selected therefrom delegates
to a national conclave to consider the reconstruc
tion of the French 'government, with a view to
peace proposals. It Is said this suggestion eml
nated from Napoleon, and that he has stated that
while the present Irregular mob are leaders of
power, even a reduction of Paris would fall to se
cure peace. Other tumors [insist that the ple
biscite now proceeding in Paris is with a view of
early peace.
Brussels, December 15.—There is a most per
fect accord between Prussia and Belgium. The
latter has been officially thanked for the good faith
shown by her in a steady, practical adherence to
neutrality.
Floeence, December 15.—1n the Italian Parlia
ment to-day, 3enor Lemaza made a powerful
speech in support of a bill relative to the Catholic
world. He demanded every guarantee which it
was possible for Italy to concede. A bill for the
consideration of Papal debts has been intro
duced.
London, December 15 —lt is announced that
Austria, wishing to maintain the existing guaran
tees for European peace, is yet desirous of sparing
the susceptibilities of Russia. She adheres without
reservation to the decision of the approaching
conference.
London, December 15.—Proofs of the Prussian
scheme for the restoration of the French empire
comes from every quarter. Bismarck says that
this is the only way in which we can gain peace,
that the Republic of France will fight forever;
that the fall of Paris would produce no effect, and
that the Prussian course is to make terms with the
empire and go home, and let the (French fight it
out among themselves.
Bordeaux, December 18. —The Prussians leav
ing the valley of Cher and concentrating on the
Loire, attacked General Chausey and were again
repulsed.
London, December 18.—The Germans have

as the Prusslan supplies and ammunition arc fully
recruited.
Bordeaux, Cccember 19.— Some journals assert
that there has been trouble in Paris, but semi
official advices state that Paris was quiet, animated
with one sentiment —that of common defence.
Reports from the forces in the north and east of
France are good. It is noticeable that the opposi
tion journals are more violent towards the Prus
sians than ever.
Bordeaux, December 19.—Britainy Is greatly
excited. The people are all taking up arms. The
troops going forward nearly close the roads to the
public.
London, December 19.—News has been received
lrom Paris that provisions have been plentiful for
the last three months. Great confidence Is felt in

Explantion of tlie Above :
Hearth and Home,
issued every week, is
one of the most beau
tiful Journals in the
world. It has twenty
large newspaper pages,
and contains a great
number of splendid En
gravings, finely printed,
and of a highly pleasing
and instructive charac
ter. A single volume of
Hearth and Some con
tains about $25,000
worth of such engrav
ings. It has, also, a
vast amount of the
choicest reading, care
fully prepared, interest
ing, and packed/uff of
Instruction. With a mo
derate amount of rural in
formation for the farm
and the garden, it contains
excellent Editorials on the
various topics of the day,
which give the reader
practical and useful infor
mation, and render him
intelligent. Nothing of a
Sectarian or political bias
is introduced. Hearth and
•Home has a most capital
Household Department,
which will delight and
greatly aid every House
keeper. This Department
is alone worth many Dol
lars every year, often every
week The Children's
Department, Edited by Mrs.
Mart E. Dodge, with many
Assistants, is of surpassing
interest to all the little peo
ple. Indeed, every Parent
better pay $lO or S2O a year,
than not to have his child
dren supplied with this
paper. It is hardly equaled
in the world. Then the
paper has a great variety
of Interesting and Instruc
tive miscellany, full of
useful information to all
classes, including Art, Sci
. ence. Literature, descrip
tions of how various things
are made, etc., etc. The
News Department tells, in
a clear condensed way,
what is going on in the
world, so as to make the
reader intelligent without
wading through a great
mass of material. The
Reliable News from the
Crops, the Markets, etc., is
of great value to all pro
ducers, and all who deal in
produce etc. N, B. —A
cartful estimate «iows that
a single volume of Hearth
and Homb contains the
same amount of JUst-rate
reading matter as 94
Books of the average site
of those sold at $1 each 1
Yet, owing to its large cir
culation, the Publishers
are able to supply it at the
low price of $3 a year; or
four copies at $2.75 each;
ten copies, at $2.50 each.
You should try it. Consid
ering its real value, it is
the Cheapest Journal
In the World! It is
impossiblefor any person
to read this journal a year
without getting useful
hints and sugesttons that
will repay him scores of
Dollars. Try it....* * *
American Agricul
turist, issued monthly,
is of a similar character to’
Hearth and Home, though
entirely different in i’s en
gravings and reading mat
ter, and has less of current
news. It is full of useful
information for every Man,
Woman, and Child, in City,
Village, and Country. Each
Number has 44 great pages,
and a careful estimate
shows that it contains as
much printed matter as
23 Books, costing $1
each! Yet on account of
its immense circulation,
surpassing that of any
other similar journal in
the world, it is supplied
to regular subscribers
for only $1,50 a year, or
four copies for $5. More
than a Million People con
stantly read this Journal
with profit and delight. It
is so reliable, so full of
useful information, that it
is hardly possible for any
one to read the American
Agriculturist a year with
out getting hints and sug
gestions that will pay back
many Dollars! If you
have it not, try it a year
It is just entering the
30th Annual Volume,and
now is the time to begin.
N- B- N. B-— Hearth and Home, and American Ag
riculturist, are sent together, a year, for only $4.
The two papers contain during a single year about
$37,000 worth of excellent Engravings, and a
careful estimate shows that their contents are equal
to 122 Hooks of the average size of thosesold at $1 each.
sr Here, then yon get for $4, as much as you
could In spending $122 in Books!! ! Every one
Is invited to examine these Journals—to give them
a year’s trial. The Publishers feel sure that every
one who does so will be not only greatly pleased
but greatly PROFITED.— ....TRY THEM!

nials, from which we extracts few and append be
low, all dated in October and November, 1870:
Col. M. C. Fulton, McDuffie county, Ga.: “I
used your fertilizer ou an experimental plat, With
14 other kinds and found it the best of all of them,
the rows manured with it yielding more than any.
I have been nearly through the catalogue and give
yours the preference to all others.”
Rev. T. B. West, Columbia county, Ga.: “I
have this year tested your Compound lu compari
son with one dozen other kinds considered the
standard fertilizers in the market, and up to this
time yours is considerably ahead. Two pickings
have been made and but a small one remaina.”
Jas. A. Tison, Esq., Eufaula, Ala.: “I have ful
ly tested the merits of your Compound and pro
nounce it, as far as my experience goes, second to
none In tbe market. I shall want 30 tons for an
other crop, provided the pri«.-e of cotton will war
rant the purchase.”
R. Tappan,[Greene county, Ga.: “Made per acre
from Pendleton’s Compound, 1,010 lbs., Peruvian
Guano 643 lbs., Sea Fowl 843 lbs., Hoyt’s Super-
Phosphate 752 lbs.”
E. M. Pendleton, Sparta, Ga.: “From the appli
cation of 100 lbs. per acre made 1,309 lbs.; -no ma
nure 570, paying 067 per cent, on Investment at
12% cents per pound net.”
J. W. Mason, Culvcrton, Ga.; “I used besides
your Compound, “Eureka” aud several other ma
nures. Your fertilizer has made a greater yield
than any of them. It fruits earlier, faster and
heavier than any fertilizer I have ever used.”
Dr. F. P. Janes, Greene county, Ga.: “Poudle
ton’s Guano Compound Is decidedly superior to
all fertilizers that I have usod this year or experi
mented with for the last 20 years, lir. Pendleton’s
well known Integrity, honesty and scientific and
practical experience, makes his Guano Compound
all that the planter or farmer could wish.”
Dr. W. H. Green, Hancock county, Ga.: “From
my knowledge of your high attainments In analyt
ical and agricultural chemistry, I had no donbt of
receiving a pure and good manure, as I did.”
Col. B. T. Harris, Sparta, Ga.: “After two pick
ings your Compound Is 74% lbs. per aore ahead of
the best fertilizer in my plat. Yours is an admi
rable manure.”
W. H. H. Bush, Pike county, Ga.: “According
to my knowledge, having tried other standard fer
tilizers, the ’Pendleton Compound’ is the best fer
tilizer now in use made In this State.”
Hon. D. B. DeSaussure, Columbia, S. C.: “I
carefully conducted experiments with your ferti
lizer, Wando, Soluble Pacific, and one other.
From the Pendleton Compound I will gather 1300
lbs. per acre, from the others 950 to 1150.”
Thos. M. Merritt, Sumter county, Ga.: “I am
much pleased with your compound. It excels
anything I have tried as a fertilizer.”
Col. E. J. Dozier, Columbia county, Ga.: Made
at the rate of 9M lbs. per acre against 290 uuma
uuied on his experimental plat.
P. W. Rachels, Hancock county, Ga.: “I think
yours the best fertilizer I have ever used, and
shall use It again, as I know the man and have
confidence that it will be kept up to Its present
high standard."
Rev. J. J. Little, Harris county, Ga.: “I used
300 lbs. per acre. Results very satisfactory. Pen
dleton Compound made 1300 lbs. per aore, against
520 unmanured, being 780 lbs. Increase.”
Dr. W. A. Dunn, Thomson, Ga.: “Os all the
fertilizers we used this year, yours Is deoldcdly
preferable, bolls being much larger and better de
veloped, more vigorous in starting the crop, giv
ing greater amount of weed and maturing more
fruit at much earlier date.”
C. D. Roberson, Jefferson county, Ga.: “I am
fully convinced that your Compound will pay me
better than any other fertilizer. It stands tbe test
of dry weather. I shall lu future use it In prefer
ence to all others.”
W. P. Matthews, Esq., Talbot county, Ga : “I
used your Compound and three others. It re
tained its bolls and forma during the dry weather
better than any other and made more. Isbell give
It the preference for future use over all others!"
Judge James Lawrence, Hanaock county, Ga.:
“Your compound made from 600 to 600 percent,
over the unmanured rows and stood the test of ex
cessive r&ius, making a most abundant yield. No
other fertilizer that I have used has given aueh en
tire satisfaction.”
Chas. M. Medlock, Warren county, Ga.: “Pen
dleton’s Compound grew off better, matured
quicker, fruited heavier, and paid abetter per cent,
on investment than Peruvian Guano ana Bones,
or any other manure I used. It paid me a big per
cent, and I Intend to use It another year.”
