realised upon his crop. I know of no article of a commerce that presents a wider field for swindling s and imposition. For the benefit of your readers, , I append the analysis of two well known com pounds byadistinguished chemist: Water and organic matter (Stuoe of Ammonia,) 12.70 Soluble Silica, 0.79 Insoluble Silica and Silicates, 18.85 lime, ....18.74 ? Alkaline Salts, 25.20 11 Phosphoric Acid, (equal to Bone Phosphate e of Lime, 12.98), 5.99 Sulphuric Acid, 10.69 t Magnesia, Iron, &c., 7.04 t 100.00 I It will be seen that a man buying such a fertili- a zer as this, pays for 39.38 per cent, of water and ? sand, of both which I believe you have an abundance in South Carolina, or had when I left there some few months ago. If the farmer purchases such an article because it is cheaper, he has the same commissions and freight to pay as upon a mnro o*nnnairA onmnnnnd. which is the more cost ]y in proportion to the amount of Phosphate of g Lime which it contains. To show the difference, take the analysis of an- 0 other grade of the same manufacturer: ' Organic matter and water (containing Ammo- a nia, 2.78), 26.20 Lime, ......28.32 t Soda, 4.88 fl Potash...... 1.88 Chlorine, ; 6.66 c Phosphoric Acid (equivalent to Bone Phos. 1 Lime, 26.46),.. 12.21 * Sulphuric Acid, 16.81 t Magnesia, Iron, &e 3.04 100.00 In the one instance you pay for a large per cent. c of sand and water; and in the latter but very little t of any ingredient but what is valuable to any crop. $ It is astonishing to witness the results of the analysis of very many of the land nostrums that are r furnished for the productions of the various crops, 1 and when we take into consideration that many of 1 these are not manipulated aocording to the origi- g nal recipe, we do not wonder that the use of guano v upon the Southern crop will be so generally dis- t carded. This is a subject of great interest to the ( whole agricultural portion of the country, and during the past year has been a subject of much study and investigation with me. To make farming profit- n able the land must be fertilized, and if compost is p to be used, the best and cheapest method of producing it should be desired; and if foreign or chem- c ' K, ical compounds are to be recommendea, tne rena- r bility of the manufacturer should bo fairly ascertained, and only such an article purchased as will 5 'bear a practical test of its genuineness. It is time o for the Southern planter to assert his rights, and 1 if in anything he is swindled, appeal to public as ? well as a civil process to secure them. We have ? bought too many "wooden hams and nutmegs" al- ? ready, and in future, a most close and rigid exposition should follow the many nefarious transactions r which often occur with the Southern people. There I are some other things I desire to tell you, but I P v have already wearied you with this long'letter. Veiy truly, yours, SOUTH CAROLINA. p THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS. J what the people say. n A large number of letters and telegrams have tj been received at Washington, intended to encour- j age Congress and the President in the course each c is pursuing. Owing to the fact that we have but v few radical newspapers on our exchange list, we e have not seen many of the dispatches sent to Con- a gress, and are able, therefore, to present our 0 readers with but few. We clip the following; how- e ever: r Harrisburg, Penn., February "23.?Governor 1 Geary yesterday sent the following: Hon. Simon Cameron, United States Senate, f Washington, J). C. t The news to-day has created a profound sensa- o tion in Pennsylvania. The spirit of 1861 seems J again to pervade the Keystone State.

Chicago, Feb. 23.?Keep steadily on. Gov. Oglesby has made hinisef ridiculou . He knew when he sent that dispatch, tendering men and money to Congress, that it was impossible to fill } the bill. When you want either men or money, more than half the able-bodied men in the State will promptly respond to your call. i New York, Feb. 24.?Our bond holders and i business men are seriously alarmed.

Mr. E. W. M. Mackey offered the following reshition, which was adopted * Resolved, That a Special Committee of Nine be ppointed to draft an Ordinance prescribing Che node in wmcn tne constitution snail oe suonmiea o the people for ratification, and providing for the lection of State officers. The remainder of the session was taken up in liscussing the question whether the Governor's erm of office should be for two or four years. It ras finally determined to fix it at two years, when he Convention adjourned. thirty-sixth day. Wednesday, February 26.?J. K. Sasportas, if Orangeburg, offered a resolution that Whereas, Provision has been made for the payaent of the per diem of members only to the 5th lay of March, therefore be it Resolved, That after the 5th day of March no >ay be drawn by the members of this convention, leferred to the Committee on Rules and Regulaions. General Cauby, accompanied by his personal taffj visited the convention. On motion, the conentaon took a recess for the purpose of enabling he members personally to pay their respects to the I Jeneral, whicn they did generally. The consideration of tne remaining sections of he executive department of the constitution was hen resumed, and with but slight amendment, aostly verbal in character, the entire article was iassed to its third reading. The.President announced the following as a speial committee of nine, to draft an ordinance precribing the mode in which the constitution snail e submitted to the people for ratification, and iroviding for the election of officers: E. W. M. lackey, of Orangeburg; F. L. Cardoza, colored, f Charleston ; A. C. Richmond, of Berkeley ;1 1. E. Hayne, colored, of Marion ; Dr. J. C. (eagle, of York; J. J. Wright, colored, of Bcauort; B. Odell Duncan, of Newberry: Joseph H. tainey, colored, of Georgetown, ana Dr. N. J. (ewell, of Anderson. One or two sections of the judiciary article were iassed to a third reading, ana on motion of C. P. ieslie, the convention adjourned at 10 minutes >ast two. thirty-seventh day. Thursday, February 27.?The News says with eference to the day's proceedings: "Seventeen ivtfinna aP tlio in/lininra nrtinln nf flin nnnafiHitinn &VUVUO Vt M1V J uuiviut j Ui iiVJU VI vuv wiigvivuwvu re re passed to their third reading. There was luch discussion, but little amendment, and the aricle is nearly in the shape in which was originally ublished. District and Probate Courts have been bliterated. The Supreme Court is to consist of a hief justice and two associate justices, any two of rhom shall constitute a quorum. They are to be lected by a joint vote of the General Assembly for term of six years, and to be so classified that one f the judges shall go out of office every two years. B. 0. Duncan, from a special committee of ight, reported the following ordinance, which was ead the first time, ordered to be printed, and made he special order for Monday at 12 M.: "The special committee of eight, to whom wasresrred the duty of learning how many Representaives South Carolina is entitled to in the Congress if the United States, and of reporting a suitable livision of the State into Congressional districts, lave investigated the matter, and beg leave to re>ort as follows: After the census of 1860 a new apportionment of Representatives wasmade amongthe States. South Carolina then being entitled to representation for mly three-fifths of her slave population, was cnitled under this apportionment of Congress to ony four Representatives. This act of apportionnent is still in force, so that we are in reality enitled by act of Congress to only four members in he lower house of Congress. But our entire popilation, for which we should now be represented, ntitles us to six representatives. As, however, it s doubtful if we will be granted a large number ban the act of apportionment gives us, your coinaittee recommend the following ordinance, to be ailed ln ordinance to divide the state into four congressional districts. We, the people of the State of South Carolina hall be, and the same is hereby divided into four Congressional Districts, as follows: First Congresional District, to be composed of the counties of Lancaster, Chesterfield, Marlboro', Darlington, iarion, Horry, Georgetown, Williamsburg, Sum er, Clarendon and Kershaw; Second Congression1 District, to be composed of the counties of Charjston, Colleton2 Beaufort and Barnwell; Third Congressional District, to be composed of thecounies of Orangeburg, Lexington, Richland, Ncwberv, Edgefield, Abbeville and Anderson; and the fourth Congressional District, to be composed of he counties of Oconee, Pickens, Greenville, Lau? ? TT IT 1 Al . . .1 n _ ens, Spartanourg, union, xorK, unesier ana rairield. 2. That until the next apportionment be made >y the Congress of the United States, each of'the aid Congressional Districts shall be entitled to ilect one member^ to represent this State in the Congress of the United States. After such new ipportionment by Congress, the legislature shall livide the State into as many Congressional Disricts as we are entitled to members in the HoaS? if Representatives. 3. At the first election under this constitution, wo representatives shall be elected at large on the State ticket, to represent the overplus of our popilation. Should they obtain seats, they shall OQninue to be so elected until the new apportionment ifter the census of 1870." The convention proceeded to the consideration )f the judiciary department of the constitution. Many amendments were offered and voted dowiK >0 that with but little alteration the article is the ?ame as heretofore published. Section 5, providing that Judges of the Supreme Court shall give their opinions on important questions of constitutional law was stricken out; it being held that this was the duty of the Attorney-General. Section 15 was amended by providing that Circuit Judges shall be elected by the joint ballot ol the two Houses of the General Assembly, and not as was proposed?"by the qualified electors" of the respective circuits. A feature of section 17 was the provision that Courts of Common Please shall have exclusive jurisdiction in all cases of divorce. An effort was made to strike this out, but Mr. B. F. Whittemore and B. F. Randolph both argued from a scripture ctandnnint. ns well as leeal and moral standnoint. that divorces ought to be granted. The section was accordingly passed without amendment thirty-eighth day. Friday, Februaiy 28.?The convention assembled at the usual time and continued in session about half* an hour. The convention adjourned, in order to receive per diem and mileage, and did not re-assemble for labor during the day. thirty-ninth day. Saturday, February 29.?The News, of Monday, with reference to the day's proceedings, says: "The convention on Saturday made up for time lost on Friday. Commencing with section 19 of the judicial department of the constitution, fifteer sections were aiscussed, .amended and passed to s third reading. Section 21, as amended, provides that the Elec tors of each Judicial District shall elect three per sons, for the term of two years, who shall constitute a Board of County Commissioners, who arc to have jurisdiction over roads, highways, ferries and all matters relating to disbursements of monc} for county purposes, taxes, &c., with, however, the right reserved of appealing to the State courts, An attempt was raaae to provide for the electicr of the Probate Judge by tne General Assembly but the proposition failed. Justices of the Peace and Constables are to bt elected by the people for a period of two years. Justices of the Peace are to have jurisdiction it all matters of contract, action for the reoovery c fines, in matters ex delicto, where the amount doe not exceed one hundred dollars; also, in proseco tions for assault and battery, and other penal offer ccs less than felony, punishable by fines only. The may also sit as examining courts, and commit, dis charge, or recognize persons, except in capiti cases. The fees of Judges of Probate, Count; Commissions, Justioes of the Peace, ana Consia bles are to be regulated by the General Assembly The original clause limiting the age of Judges t seventy years, has been stricken out.
