of Grant iu giving up the War Department
at the demand of Sianton and the Iiadicals,
without consulting or referring to the Presi

The glorious aud deserved fame of Gen.
Grant iu conquering t he rebellion is tarnished
by this surprising conduct. Cur Napoleon
has not shown the skill of Napoleon Bona

backed by the Jacobins in Cougress, has

proved himself superior to all the Jacobins

Georgia Uacoastitnaocal Convention.
TWENTY-FOURTH HAY.
[From the Atlanta Daily Intelligencer ]
Tuesday, January 21, 1868.
The Convention opened with prayer—Blount in the
chair.
The journal was read.
ADJOURNBD DEBATE.
Heat from the Stars.—It is a startling
fact that ii the earth were dependent alone
upon the sun for heat, it would not get heat
enough to keep existence iu auimal and veg
etable life upon iiH surface. It results from
the researches of Pouillot that the stars fur-
uish heat enough in ihe course of a year to
melt a crust of ice soyeniy five feet thick—
almost as much as is supplied by the sun.
Tuis may appear strauge when we consider
Low immeasurably small must be tbe
amount of heai from any one of those dis
tant bodies. Hut the surprise vanishes
when we remember that tbe whole firma
ment is so tliicidy sown with stars that in
mine places thousands are crowded together
within a space no greater thau that occu
pied by the full moon. The oye cannot see
more than a thousand at thu same time iu
the clearest heaven, yet the number i*
probably infinite. From the first to the
sixth magnitude inclusive, the total num
ber of visible st ars is 3128.
Tuc Hunting Star.
The following account of an event more
awful and sublime lhau the most vivid im ig
inatiou cm fully conceive, is given by Edwin
Duukin, ot the Royal Gbservatoiy, England
It is only one of severaPsimilar cases on re
cord. In Hay last a slur blazed forth in Hie
'Northern Crown, and was of the second
magnitude. The astronomers gave it imme
diate scientific observation, aud recorded
thu results iu technical terms, which need
not be repeated.
- ‘‘There c*o bo little doubt that, from cause
Uukumvn to us, it must have been the sub
ject of a terrible catastrophe at a period per
haps diataut, for it must be borne iu mind
that, owing to its immense distance from us,
wo may be only witnessing the calamity ot
the past age. From the :-u<idcn blazing forth
*f this stir, and then its rtpid failing away,
Mr. Huggins and Dr. Miller have engir-i't -d
that iu consequence of a gr'e t internal CJn-
v ulsion, probably a large qu unity of hy (Lo
gon and other gases were t-mith-d from it.
During a discussion on this star, at a meet
ing of the Royal Astronomical Society, on
juue 8th, the astronomer royal expressed his
lirm belief that ttmt wonderful object wa-,
actually in fl t mes.
If we were inclined to speculate on this
Unique asti Gnomical phenomenon, or the
•probable consequences arising from such a
Etiddi n (•utburd of fiery ga-j, what hu ex
t^nsivo subject for rouiemolatioD is opened
to im! Astronomically we have known this
ffiioute star for years without suspicion; it
I has been classified with others of singular
magnitude; it has been one of many mil
lions of suel;; while now it will be remem-
Wred by all future generations as one of the
most celebrated stars of tbe uuiverse. Or,
Jet our speculation be carried a little further,
^Jid let us reasonably suppose this small and
hitherto nearly invisible object to be an im
mense globe like our own sun, and sur
rounded probably with planets aud satellites
depending upon their centre for light and
heat; what would be the effect of this sud
den conflagration on them? It makes one
wnost shudder at tbe idea of a system of
Worlds being annihilated at once without
yarninir, but such must doubtless he the
act. We, however, in this quiet world of
ovrg, can scarcely, perhaps, tealize such a
catastrophe; but were our sun, which is
only a star analogous to those in the heavens
round up, to be suddenly ignited iu ci sirai-
ar niuuner to this distantand unknown sun,
Pl* Mi ets aud satellites, the
urtk included, w..uld be destroyed.
outer upon the Convention the authority delegated
the Dletrict Commanders iu the 2d section of the Sup
plemental Bee instruction act, passed July 19, 136Z,.
aud for other purposes therein named:

olution df Mr. Aebburn:
"In mcti an act of Congress, we desire that it shall

shall hold office iu the Provisional Stuto Govern

Substitute of Mr. Whiteley—Preamble and resolu
tion* in reference to the re-orgtnizstion of the .state
government, the removal of disabilities, and tbe
modification of ihe test oath:

S. 1L Parrott resumed his discassion of the reeolu-
turns of G W. A>hburn this morning. He went on
t» say that he thought the uction of the Convention
in pa-sing such ruMolatioas would be detrimental to
the reconsiruction movement, and to the interest* of
i he Republican party. He kuew what they were sent
to Uie Convention for. He knew that the constituents
of the delegates sent them there to frame a gre-it con
stitution, which should go down to posterity wilh'lhe
blestdiigu of get eiatioua upon it and upon its framers,
lie trusted be was acting aud speaking >n all sincerity
•m the question before the House, and he implored
the delegates to the Convention to weigh well before
they took su -h a step as that proposed to be taken.
He did not want to have il said that that Convention
w-unted to monopolize the offices of the tttale to them
selves altogether. He thought tnat G moral Meade
was invested with sufficient authority to remove any
ifficial who may have acted ibega ly. It was not tho
proper coarse to say turn out all the officials because
they were opposed to reconstruction.
ANOTHLB BPKEOU—MAYOR ANDERSON.
A. Alpeoria Bradley (negro) made another of hiu
epeeche-t in reply to thu arguments of the preceding
-pouker. Well, we won’t tell anybody what he said
for the very plain and iorcible reason th,»t we don’t
kuow; but we advise Mayor Anderson, of Savannah,
look out, Alpeoria is after him, and he bau belter
... i k some distant and more hospitable clime for the
wrath of Alpeoria (Degruj Bradley is upon him, aud
he is de’eimined that His Honor shall l e victimized.
Oh, Mayor Amlei son, repent thy sin at once and
hand buck to this inflated pest tno hundred dollars
.vluchyou took from him accordiug to law. Why
did you dare to use this t ml of a f ction as you would
an honest and r. spot-table man ? He is determined,
ue Rays, that you shall give that monuy b.<ck to him.
He says you had no more right under tbe Constitu
tion, to tuke that money from him than the common
est uraymau on the atreets of Savannah. Think of
this and be on your guard, for soon or late you are
bound to feel his vengeance. Sir Walter Scott says:

The Way to Check Them.—In an article
reviewing the deplorable political and finan
cial condition ot the country, the New York
Herald concludes as follows:
Under such a fearful slate of things the
national finances must remain disorganized,
taxation oppressive and the public credit
shaken. Business of all kinds must feel the
!>acaly3io{£ effect. Capital prill take alarm
anu enterprise will cease. In fact, the pros
pect before us is truly alarming if
the Radical party in power continue their
destructive course and the people do
not rise up as one man in their might to
oheck this tide of Jacobinism. Unhappily,
these Radicals will be in power for some
time to com6, as they boast of being, to defy
public opinion, and they inay*do a vast deal
of evil before another geueral election takes
place. To hold them in check, then, the
people everywhere should rise aud denounce
their conduct. In all the cities and towns—
yes, ev-pd ^oiievery little village—there should
he public ‘meetings for this purpose. The
country is In a terrible crisis, aud the uni
versal voice of the nation shoald be raised
to save the constitution aud government
from the sacrilegious bands that now threaten
to destroy both.
A Goon Ch ance.—A negro in the Arkan
sas Convention said the other day, •-‘Gtve us
the chance of eighteen .hundred years like
tlte while man, and we will show what we
Upon which the Louisvnre
selves:
But the negroes have had the chance not
only of eighteen hundred years, but all the
years since Noah’s flood. They hue© had
that chance iu their own country where God
planted them. In Africa they have been
unmolested by tho while race, except so far
as a lew of their tribes upon the coast have
been able, after taking prisoners Iroin each
other, to find a market for them with white
traders instead of putting them to death.
L'it: tfcat vamring Arkansas negro point to
Africa for exemplifications of what his race
can do, not only in eighteen hundred years,,
but in a great many additional ceuturiea.
The Washington correspondent of the St.
Louis Republican says in iris letter of the
I7th instant: “Tue absence of all oificial ac
tion by tho President in relation to the re-
ru8tateinent. of Secretary Stanton, has left
the so-called imbroglio without any new
facts, or even speculations. It is learned
to-night from the President himself, that he
issued no order or proclamation, aud that be
doe9 not propose to do anything of the kiud.
It may, therefore, be advisedly and safely
asserted that Mr. Stanton will conliuue to
act iu his full capacity as Secretary of War
until his successor is nominated and con
firmed by the Senate. This is iuevitabiy the
result of the much talked of controversy.”
Discontented .-We are informed by a gen*
Human, who overheard ihe copvt-rsation,
that, on the day of our municipal edyctions,
last Saturday, au aged Virginia negro was in
town watching tbe working of the machine.
Some of our Kuoxviile sovereigns spoke to
him about the bies-iugs of their Ircedom,
as exemplified in tbe scenes before him.
Said the Virginian : “Go way dar, nigger !

Gentlemen—Your letter of October 2d, has Just
come to hand, inquiring about Mipes’Super-Phos
phate of Lime. Tbe ton porclmsed for me from you
by Messrs. Wade k Co. was received the loth of
April last. I had the land l»id off with a good turn
ing plow, and spread down 16A ponnds p r acre on
very poor oede land and covered it with the plow,
this was level hind. This rtnd has made'atf least
one-third more than it woa)d have made without
manure. To be -aMsfied, I planted some oi the same
laud wiihout any manure; this was clay land. A
small piece of nandy land wua tried the same way,
and th-* yield is about one-fifth more. It will not pay
on sandy land.
I tried it on a gravelly hillside ’he same way, with
a little trash ont of the woods, and it will make-at
(east doable. This cotton is aa high as a man's
head.
A piece of bottom laud was tried next. This land
was rich enough, but always rusted, and my object
was to see if It would prt-yent it. This ia. asflne
cotton as I have seen this year, »Dd will double. I
■eit four rows in the middie of this piece without
anymuuuro ai d li rutted In August, while that
which was manured was green until it was eaten np
by the caterpillars. All this was off • ouon.
By being called awuy frpm home, I did not try It
myself ou com, t>ur my son applied it to a few bills.
Tbe result was quite patisfketory.
1 tried it on g.u-deu vegetables, and the yield was
highly snttSlactory. I should have liked to have
tried it on melons, fruit, and in every way, but the
small quantity 1 Had was not sufficient I should
have liked to tried it on tnrnips this fall, but
ray ine»u.i have been so much reduced by 'the late
war 1 felt unable to incur tbe expon»e.
Everything 1 tried it on did well. It stood the
ool weather in. the apring time, perfectly green,
ground finely, Wj.i.-h is a great lt>-m iu the cotton
plant. It bus beat the tiuano in this ntdghborfcood,
and. Where the caterpillar has left it alone,it is green
now and blooming yet.
But tue planter need not expect to realise much
without cultivation. What will make cotton
grow will make gnu* do the same. My crop was
perfectly clear all the year.
My belief is. that it ia the best manure now in use,
and a great many planters that have seen my crop
are or the name opinion. This; gentlemen, Ih what
iibink oi tbe n ami re. I have tried to explain tke
beet 1 could how *-vjiy part paid

aud I now reply.
Last hpring 1 purchased of 8ims A Co., Commission
Merchants of Savannah, one tou of Mapes’ Super-
hhuRphate of Liuie, which I need on cotton alone.
The hind was about hal!' covered in. sedge; ted not
been cultivated for ten yearn, consequently the ma
nure waa put in b.-idly; iu tbe application I left tour
rows as a test, without manure; the test is not fin
ished as yet, the crop not being wound np, bnt at this
lime it stands as six is to one. Bat I tiling In the
cud it wili stand us two is fn one; that fs/the ma
nured cotton will make two (2) lbs where the other
will make one pound. It must be remembered this
has keen an excellent year for manures. I manured
nine and a hall acies with one ton, a fraction over
200 pounds per acre.
