FROM WASHINGTON.
Congressional Proceedings «SLc.
Washington, January 18.—Senate.—The
Senate adjourned fifoni Thursday to Mon
day, which discouraged the extremists. Its
apathy is denounced. It id almost certaiu
that tue hills chauging the Supreme Court
and df-gradiug Hancock will fail oi' receiving
a two-thirds vote in the Senate.
Senator Anthony's paper opposes the
emasculation of the Supreme Court, and
letters from soldiers in all parts of the coun
try are pouring in, protesting against the
degradation. The bill impairing the army by
mustering out Geu. Hancock will probebly
die in the House.
Colonel Charles G Greene, of the Boston
Post, telegraphs his correspondents here
that the excitintent throughout New Eng
land is intense. > j
Howard writes a letter remonstrating
with the uegr :es, who having been provided
with homes at the .North ard West are
abandoning their places and spending their
earnings in coining back.
House.—In the House the entire day was
devoted to set speeches on Seward’s pur
chases and finances.
Tue members of the Military Committee
consulted Grant previous to the recent ac
tion adverse to reducing the army. Grant
strougiy advised against reduction. He said
tba: over half the aimy was now in the un
reconstructed Slates, and in Teunessee and
Kentucky. There was a serious lack of men
both in the South and on the frontiers. In
the departments of the lakes barely enough
men had been left to take proper care of the
foits.

The Radical Convention.
Atlanta, Jaauary 18.—Gen. Meade sent
in a communication dated yesterday, to the
Convention this morning, in which, after an
acknowledgement of the receipt of the reso
lution asking for pay, iie says:
“I have this day teceived information that
there ate no funds in the Treasury at Mil-
ledgeville. I have also been reliably inform
ed that some of the public institutions of
the Stale have been suffering on account of
tlie non-payment of the appropriations for
their support. Whether this failure of pay
ment has been on account of the want of
means io the State Treasury, or for other
reasons, 1 am not at present advised. I shall
use my best efforts to secure, without delay,
the meaus ot paying the incidental expenses
ol the (J invention, and at least a portion of
the per diem stud miieuge of the members.
If I hud, on investigation, that any funds
which should be in the State Treasury have
been placed beyond my reach, I may deem
it necessary to suspend temporarily the pay
ment of a portion ol the current salaries of
all officers who receive their pay either irow
the State Treasury or the Scale road. You
will j e ceive from the facts above stated thai
it ia out oi my power at present to comply
with the request ot the Convention, much as
Ide3»ietoiio si». lu lieu of granting this
authority, I re-pacMuily requ. at that the re
quisition ot your disbursing agent may be
fceui to me for my approval, that I may see
that sucli fund- of the State as may Decoine
available, be properly distributed according
to the pubiic oece.si-ities.”
Tl.e Convention refused almost unaui-
mousiy to suspend the rules to consider a
resolution asking the Federal authorities to
make advances tor paymeut ot Convention
expenses. Also tabled a resolution to ap
point a committee of three delegates to ex
amine the Slate Treasury.
Sections 8 and 9 of the Bill of Rights of
the old Coosiiiution were adopted.
Cue delegate gave another t tie lie during
to-duy’s session m a quarrel arisiug out of
the non-receipt of pay. Both caught up
heir chair*, but violence was avoided and
hhiiual apologies made.
Genera. Meade has issued an order valid-
a mg the relief ordinance of the Convention,
, h the exception that execution is not to
* sta yed in cases of taxes or laborers’
wages.
Richmond, January 18.—The Bill of Rights
was taken up. Beveu sections were adopted,
including one declaring Virginia a co-equal
member of the General Government and en
titled to all the benefits and subject to all the
burdens as other Siates.
The Judiciary Committee reported ad
versely to scaling debts prior to 1865 at 25
cents on the dollar.
General Grant is expected on Tuesday, to

Court here against the Richmond & Fred
ericksburg Railroad for requiring his wile
to ride in the second class car when she had

$1,800.
The Enquirer, here, will publish, on
Monday the challenge sent by Col. White,
the Republican member of the State Con
vention, to Gen. Butler, when the latter was
in ibis city last week.
It demands reparation for being ordered
out of Butler’s department during the war.
The affair is still pending. White is one of
the Republicans who refused to hear But
ler’s speech.
The Luauidiia Convention.
New Orlbans, January 18.—In the Con
vention to-day a resolution was adopted fix
ing the hours of the daily session from 10 a.
m. to 4 p. m.
Cromwell, colored, said he was opposed
to any step lookiug towards the speedy
completion-of the Convention business and
permanent adjournment until the question
of funds had been definitely settled.
A communication was received from Gen.
Hancock stating that having received infor
mation from Geu. Sheridan to the effect that
he had intended paying commissioners ot
election for delegates to Convention, Gen.
Hancock had ordered their payment out of
the reconstruction funds.
A communication was received from Gen.
Hancock to the committee appointed to coo
ler with him relative to the collectiou of the
taxes levied by the Convention.
General Hancock says by the ordinance
levying the tax . the Convention prescribed
the mode of its collection. Tuat ordinance
makes it the duty of the Auditor to direct
sheriff* and tax collectors to enforce pay
ment. bhould any such persons be forcibly
resisted, the Major-General commanding
will promptly uso the military power to
maintain the supremacy of the law. To
this extent be has authority to act, but it is
not his province to interfere in the matter in
any other way.

Scotia landed at Queenstown a strong police

TWENTIETH GAY.
[From the Atlanta Daily Intelligencer.]

The Convention opened this morning in' the usual
way.
The Journal waa read.

account of necessary and unavoidable business.—-

Leave of absence was al-»o granted for two aick

E. L. Higbee presented a report from tbe Commit-

priated to the common school iutid.
J. L Dunning moved that a committee of fivo be
appointed on miscellaneous matters, and on sugges
tion of a member the words ••pertaining to the Cou-
.-titutiou” were added.
BILL OF niGHTS.
The discussion of the 4tb kection of the Bill of
Rights was taken up,.pursuant to adjournment, and
W. T. Crane resumed bis argument.
He proceeded to that he w.-is m favor of a just
code of laws being framed which would do justice to
all parties, and io all the citizens of tho State ot
Georgia. It appeared to him that the discus
sion on this sufj^ct was drifting altogether in
one direction, and : that was that it was pro-
!' ««d to protect, «ltog. th«ir, tbe debtor, while
all sight was loet of the honest creditor. It was
sold that it was a very hard matter to1mpris..u an
honest man for dent, but such was not the object of
the section. That section would have no'terrors for
tn« honest raau who waa willing to pay what lie hon
estly owed. It would never interfere with him; but
its great object was to reach the <lL-hbne*t.maii jhiuI
the swindler, and to protect the honest creditor from
imposition. Ho - as pot there to uphold auy bill that
would t-nd to thwart? the ends of justice, but wan of
• ■piuion that if auy portion of tho section was stricken
it would result in iujury to thuliouest and well-oiean-
mg creditor. It was propoa d to strike out ail of the
section after the words “except lor debt,” but he bo-
1 eved th bill was not intended to deprive the honest
poor man of any of his rights anymore tnau it did
the rich man; it only proposed to give tho creditor
Lhe right to defend himself against the thieves and
the swindlers.
GEMS OF ELOQUENCE—AFRICA BREAKS A PIECE.
M. il. Bentley (uegro) was on his feet and the Chair
said the ‘'gentleman had the floor.” and he proceeded
to speak.
He commenced by hoping tho reporter would not
take it down wrong, as he diu.yaaterday, and so the
the reporter is very careful now, and must necessa
rily be in tbe future, after this rebuke.
“Now, gentlemen, I waut to know trom you, where
is nil the honest men of G -orgiagone to? rlpii'e* what
1 want th kuow. I want to know from you what be
came of them; that’s the question. I tliiuk this is
the best thing you can do lor the honest man. Why,
gent omen, in me place where I live the Jews sell
poor colored men clothes for fineen dollars that iu
not worth five. Yus. that’s what he does. It is louud
out and the Jew goea lo the judge and gives him a
couplo of dollars and he gives the bailiff about a dollar
and a half nnd that's all that’s ever said nbout it ”
It would be impossible to do this individual justice
by attempting to report verbatim what neither himself
nor any body else u-.dorsioou; besides, the reporter
could not-catch enough of his language audibly to
kuow what he was driving at. It will s ffice. per
haps, to say, that if he reported him wrong yester
day, when ho did not speak at all he is doing here au
act^of clemency now. by concealing his unfortunate
ignorance and assurance fi om the world.

now-a- d *ya a “great commoner,* he faced
Then occurred aiscehe which it would be difficult to
portray. He smiled and aneered. and it wqoM be
difficult to say which was tbe more unearthly of the
two. He lashed Cromley with a veqfipme. He
spoke about some person who had stolen so|pe chick
ens from a man’s premises- When spoken to on the
aub iect, said he would not do so sgain, and the next
nigh” was at tbe same work as fresh as ever. Wh
tuts was intended to apply to there conldbebut little
doubt, and hi- language, though low and scurrilous,
had one redeeming feature, which was, that it left
no mystery in the rnln^s of his hearers.
.It is to be regretted that we esnnot follow him,
word for word, so ss that tbe world might be sble to
judge for itself or the state to which the people of the
South sre reduced. He wss very mad, very mad in
deed, about the manner in which he wss trssted by
the newspapers, and he conld not help feeling very
ndignanl at being celled s “Massachusetts imported
nigger/’ when tbe fact was, he wss a native of Sooth
Carolina. The newspapers took great delight in mis
representing him. They made him say die, dst and
t’other, and yet be conld not see why they should so
ill use him. Poor, outraged A. Alpeoria Bradley I
(negro)
Members Sherman, Richardson, Bedford and
Whitely favored the amendment, and spoka at some
length un the outrages which wore sure to result to
the poor man from its rejection. They denounced
the original section aa vlaciug tha debtor altogether
at the mercy of ricu creditors, and trusted tha aasend-
meut. would be accepted by the Convention. The
cause of humanity demanded it, and all other State s
that had rejected arrest for debts had flourished very
well.
-I E Bryant also favored the amendment in a brief
address.
L N. Trammell moved that the entire section be
stricken out, as he had grown tired of the discussion
The motion was lost.
Hr Akerman then addressed the committee, and
showed the statements of precediug speakers to ths
effect that tbe Constitutions of the loyal State# forbid
imprisonment for dubt were incorrect. He read from
tho Constitutions of efx or seven Northern States pro
visions similar to that in the old Constitution of Geor
gia, which allowed a fraudulent or absoouding debtor
to be imprisoned. He exposed Bradley's misrepre
sentations of the law of Georgia, and said that if there
was oppression iu Savannah, tho fault waa not in the
law, but in the administration fit.
Referring to the arrest of Georgians for debt in
Sew Turk, he asked why should not Georgia cra-i-
i ors have the same remedy agaiust New York debt
ors when found nere ? Bradley (uegro) interrupted
with the answer, “Because the New Yorkers put
down the rebellion in Georgia.” To which Mr. A.
rt»*fM,>nded i»y quoting the Constitution Of tbe United
States'>n the subject of the equal righ s of the dt-
itiz-'iis of the several States. Ho pressed this argu-
m nt with so much effect that eveu 'Le noisy Biad-
!ey was silenced for th-.: time.
lie replied to Mr Whileley’s argument that Texas
had abolished imprisonment for debt in her consti-
tut:oii, reminding his bearers that when Texas mado
her constitution she was tho asylum of all the out-
la.'e of tho continent, and that such a rule was very
naturally adopted by such a people.
The old rule worked weil iu the country portion of
the Mato, and this embraced nine-tenths ol her pop
ulation A good rule ought not to be set aside for
occasional abuses.
The question of the proposition to strike out next
came in order, and tho votes counted standing. They
stood ayes, 70; nays, 43.
The tourIh section as amended was then read as
•follows:
“There shall be no imprisonment for debt.”—
Adopted.
The d heussinn of this question created considera
ble anxiety among the parties on either side, and
its close seemed to give relief eveu to those who
we:e defeated.
The Committee of the Whole, into which the honse
had resolved itself in the morning, now rose and re

Here tbe distiuguishad orai..r was inlernipted by
the precediug brother, who to«»k occasion to ask iuni:
•Wero you never a driver on a plantation ?” Whe. »•-
upon said Cromley, raising hiaovtll up in liiHuiguity,
replied: “Thank you, sir. I have always t«eeo at>ove

t *r the indignant preach r (for su. b he is) whose
pride in the mum.iitof victory was but, alas, too
soon to be hnmtrh d by s brother of the w hite species.
Ha (Cromley) was in tbe act of saying that every mao
who did hoi pay hi# uofu st debts ought to be s.-til to
jail. Now this would indicate a good ..o u uil principle
on bis part, but be evidently ha I forgotten that those
who “live in gloss houses should not throw stones,”
for C. C. Richardson stood up on the moment and
put unto him the puttineat question:
“At the time yo i were coining here was thcro not
a ball warrant taken out agaiuRt you bt-caime they
thought you were about to leave the State ?”
Poor Cromley reeled but a womeut beneath tin-
weight of this last assault but he did not flinch lor
a moment. On the contrary, he came up to hia work
with renewed energy, for this was not a nine to quail,
aud said:
“Weil, I will reply to that. It is very true, your
honor. I was owing a little money, and tin man bud
a right to collect it, aud it I did not pay it t.e hat) a
right- to send me to jail.” “Jhere is,’’ said be, “a

thieves and ecoundieis, both black and white, aud I
tell you iu this convention to-day, that the whole
8Ute of Georgia iv corrupt. [Laughter.] The white
man takes every advantage he can of the poor negro,
and I tell yon another thing, and I want you all ro

A. Alpeoria Bradley (uegr ) iu low tone. “He lies ”
Cromley coutinutd—Tt is os. creditable to pay a
Dutchman as an Englishman, and I am satistiul the
■nan that would nut p-iy a Dutchman would But pay
me ’’ [Laughter.]
While he was thus discoursing, .-mother colored
brother, named Joiner, sto'id up and said:
“If every mau that docs not pay hia debts should
l>e sui t to jail, you ought to be sent there too.’’
[Loud laughter.]
Cromley again proceeded : “Well, I will tell you I
have heard a good deal oi speaking here to-day. I
want you to give me some water here, little boy.”
[Laughter.] Ou he went again : “Well, God Al
mighty help this Convention, if there is to be tto im
prisonment fur debt.” [Continued laughter,. and
crit-s of “silence and order” iroin the Chair.]
A. Alpeoria Bradley (negro) came u at last. He
could stand it uo longer, aud as tie is usually finding
fault with everything done by the President, or who
ever occupies the i. hair, he ihought it high time tuat
he should rise to a p int of order.
The Chairman said Me win out of order, where
upon* he sat down, saying: “He can go on now, we
have no rules.” *
Cromley again speaks. “I want these gentlemen
to uud< istaud that while I urn <>n the door I know
what I aiu talking about. [Laughter.] And i say' to
you that if you accept thia. amendment you will be
confirmiug tlie words ot Ben. H It. and ali them per
sons that speak about this' Convention arid s.-iy it is
composed of thieves and blackguards. [Prolonged
laughter and some confusion, with criua of -‘order, :

Bradley (negro) arose once more and said, with h'
most offensive insinuation towards the Chair:
••I want to ask tho geutieman (the speaker), as we
have no rules, will ttie Cretans probably succeed
agaiust the Turks ?“ [Liugh.er ]
Chairman—That Is not in order.
Bradley (uegro), “By what rule do yon call me out
ofordci ?”
Chairman—“By such rules as we have them here.”
Some cujfusiou here euscsed. in whioh Bradley

Beach Branch, 8. C., November 2,1867.
Gentlemen—Your letter of October 2d, haa just,
come to baud, inquiring about Mapes’ Super-Phos
phate of Lime. The ton purchased for me from you
by Messrs. Wade & Co. was received the loth o?
April last. I had the land laid off with a good turn
ing plow, and spread down 160 pounds p r acre on
very poor oede land and covered it with the plow,
this was level land. This laid has made at least
one-third more tbaii.it would have made without
manure. To becirisfled, I planted some ot the same
laud without any manure; this was clay land. A
•saiall piece ot sandy land wss tried tho same way,
and th - yield is about one-filth more. It will not pay
on sandy land.
I tried it on a gravelly hillside *he name way, with
a litile tra-sh out or the woods, and it will make at
least double. This cotton is as high as a man’s
head.
a piece of bottom laud was tried next. This land
was rich cnougti. bnt always rasted, and uij object
was to see if 1 • would preyeut it. This is us flue
cotton as I have seen this year, and will double. I
ieli four rows in the middle cf this piece without
any manure ai.d it rusted in August, wuile that
which was manured was green until it. was eaten up
by the caterpillars. Ail this was on < otion.
By being called away from home, I did not try it
myself 011 com, but my sou applied It to a few bills.
The result was quite satisfactory.
1 tried i:. ou garden vegetables, and the yield was
highly .satisfactory. I should have liked to have
tried it on melons, fruit, and m every way, bnt the
'..nail quantity 1 Had was not snflkient I guonld
have liked t«> have tried it on turnips this iail, out
my mea’.tJ have been so much reduced by the late
war 1 felt unable u. incur the expense.
Everything 1 tried it on did well. It stood tbe
ool weather in the spring tune, perfectly green,
ground finely, wni. h is a great it m in the cotton
plant. It h«s beat The guuuo in this neighborhood,
and, where tbe caterpillar has left it alone.it is green
now and blooming yet.
But tbe planter need not expect to realise much
wi: hunt cultivatio . What will make cotton
grow will make gra*s do th- same. My crop was
perfectly clear all the year.
SSy be.tel is, that it is the best manure now in use,
and a great many planters that have seen my crop
are of me same opinion. This, gentlemen, is what
l think of the :. a cure. I have tried to explain the
oesi 1 could how evary part paid

GeutleniuL—Your note was received, contents noted
and 1 n->w reply.
Last spring 1 purchased of Sims ft Co., Commission
Merchants of Savannah, one toa of Mapes’ Super
phosphate ot Lime, winch I used on cotton alone.
The mud was about half covered in sedge; bod not
been cultivated for ten years, consequently the ma-
unre was put in b idly; in the application 1 left four
rows as a test, without manure; the test is not fin
ished as yet, the crop not being wound up, but at this
rime it stands as six is to one. But I Think in the
end it will stand as two is to one; that is, the ma
nured cotton will make two (2) lbs where tho other
will make one pound. It must, be remembered this
has been au excellent year for manures. 1 manured
nine and a half acres with one ton, a fraction over
200 pounds per aero.
Yours, Ac.,

Gentlemen—Your favor of tue 30th September is
before me asking my opinion ot tlie “Mapes’ Boper-
Phosphale of Lime. 1 have applied it ou my garden
io cabbage and coliards. bunch ami butter beane, also
o corn in tho garden, (planted unusually thick) and
aiu decidedly of tlie opinion I bad the best garden of
•South-western Georgia. Every one who saw. ie
garden coincided with me. 1 applied it by way-if
top dressing, and worked the ground so as to cover
n the fertilizer, and obtained tbe most satisfactory
resuus. As to cotton, lam not prepared to give* n
•pinion in reference to its fitness as a manure, but
am perfectly satisfied with it as a fertilizer for corn
auu vegetables.
Please send me one barrel, and send bill.
Yours truly,
B. B. Hamilton.
SANDKB8TILLR, Ga., October 3d, 1861.
Messrs. Purse dk Thomas:
Gentlemen—Last spring 1 induced several reliable
anters in this county to experiment with aeveruloi
the mofct popular Fertilizers, in order to arcertaifi
the relative values of each, also the increase of crops
realised by their u-e.
1 sold Mr. J. W. Scotr Peruvian Gnano and Mapes
Super-Phosphate. He says the Guanoed crop has
been far more affecied by drought and excessive
rains than Super-phosphate; thinks Mapes* has tie-
Med his corn and doubled his cotton crop; thinks
Mapes* Boper-Phosphate has done better for topi
Than Peruvian Guano, pound for pound; shad use
Mapes next year in preference to any Fertilizer he
has seen used by his neighbors.
Mr. William Brantlysaya:
1 have need Map* s' and Rhodes’ Snper-Phoepbatea
y-'H gave me to experiment with, and to this talc
M.-uies yield iq 25 pounds aeed cotton, Rhodes. 22
1 qu ids, nothing 9 pounds.
Toe above figures speak for themselves. It is for
the interest of every planter to know what kind of
Fertilizer will improve his lauus, and at the same
time prove io be a Handsome investment in a single
crop. I believe thar Guano will, it the season emu
it, bring on a crop to maturity in less time than any
° .m T' j ,ir0D Ki' t fire sooner, and in rams it
will induce rust more than the Super-Pho»pbaee
My observation i* that Mapes’ supcr-Phosnhate ia
a preventive against rust on cotton.

Dear Sir—At your request, I have Carefully nor<
the effects of the Peruvian Quauo and Mayen’fcune
Phosphate of Lime, I bought ot you last winter,
applied as nearly at possible the snine amount
vacii, about 75 pounds per acre. The quality of tl
land was oldfieid. Planted and cultivated alik
Manes’ Supi r-Phosphate has d- veloped as good

crop is about ibrea io one better tnau nothin**
us d it in both corn and cotton with the siune^eu

Messrs. Purse d Thomas :
Gentlemen—In reply to your enquire in regard to
the result in the use of Mapes’ Super-Phosphate cf
Lime during tho j resent year, I have ro say that it
met my most sanguine expectations. The effects of
its use upon corn, peas aud garden vegetables, was
most marked. I cannot give careful estimates, as
neither laud or Phosphate was measured. If it can
be always kept np to the standard, it must take the
preference of all Fertihacis now in use.
Yours Truly,
P. C. Pendleton.
