WASHINGTON, December 4L-The BBQif?oatioa of the fouiteenth article ol the Constitution by Nebraska vas Sresented. A memorial from some lentuoky soldiers, relative to the alleged dislr^alty of Kentucky State officers, was presented. Drake offered a conourrent resolution, that the President had transcended his consti? tutional powers in the language of his message referring to reconstruc? tion. The language used was deroga? tory to the dignity Of Congress, and a usurpation of their rights and pri? vileges. It lies over. A motion to print extra copies of the President's message elicited a debate, ventilating the views of several Senators. The question of printing the message was postponed. A bill amending recon? struction so as to require only ? majority of the votes cast to call a Convention was referred to the Judi ?Mfirv Com mitt?? A 'bill ^SSSed, declaring five members of the Su? preme Court a quorum. A bill pledg? ing coin payments of bonds was dis? cussed, and, after executive session, adjourned. In the House, the Secretary of tho Treasury "called for the report of the amount of Government funds depo? sited with national banks. A bill for the better protection of American citizens abroad was referred. The bill repealing the cotton tax was re? sumed. An amendment reducing the tax to one cent per pound was lost An amendment that the Court of Claims shall have no jurisdiction over clainiB for cotton tax, either collected or to be collecte.., and the bill as it came from the Committee, were passed, without amendment nays 20. The bill simply abolishes the tax, commencing with next year's crop, but continues it on the present crop. Adjourned. LONDON, December -4.-Details from Ceylon state that at Calcutta the loss of life and. property is fear fal. 1,000 persons perished, and 80,000 habitations were destroyed in the vioinity. Internal revenue receipts, to-day, $1,813,000. It is reported that the State Con? ventions have been carried in all the States except South Carolina, where the short time and few voting places defeated it RICHMOND, December 4.-This af? ternoon, the Convention only ap? pointed a Committee on Rules and Elections. ' Judge Underwood was elected President. TO^omunw;? D?CCmbCT ~ ' J. M. Cavanaugh's bill, allowing territorial delegates fall representation rights in Congress, has created a stir. Cava naugb, who is a delegate from Mon? tana, claims that he represents 65,000 Ssrsons, paying $124,000 revenue, e contends that his constituents are entitled to something more than a voiceless seat in the house. EARTHQUAKE AND ERUPTION.-A special despatch to the New York Herald, dated Kingston, Jamaica, No? vember 28, reports violent shocks of earthquake have been experienced at St Thomas, St. Croix, Tortola, Peter's Island and Little Saba. The shooks occurred within tho period from two o'clock in the after? noon of the 18th to the 19th ultimo. Many lives and vessels have been lost. There was also a volcanic emption. The sea was raised fifty feet over the land, and in its retrocession swept off the populace, with immense losses of human Ufo and merchandize. MOST HORRID AFFAIR.-On Mon? day night last, thc dwelling house of Mr. C. D. Wallace, one of our oldest and most respected citizens, at Gopher Hill, at eleven o'clock, was foaud to be completely in flames. When the neighbors attracted, ar? rived, the house, which was a large one, was so completely envoloped that nothing could be done to stay tho flames. Mr. Wallace resided alone, and was known to be at home, as he was seen by some of his neigh? bors, and heard calling his dogs after dark by others, but whether in the house or not could not be determined until next day, when his remains were found almost entirely consumed. From every circumstance, suspicion of foul play was aroused. Tho following is tho finding of tho jury of inquest: "That the deceased, C. D. Wallace, was felonously killed by James Flynn nnd John Ii. Lang? ley, by means unknown to the jury, or by being burned in his dwelling house."-Cheraio Advertiser, 30(7t ult. A New York lotter describes that city as "a herculean, oblong, muni? cipal bladder, stuffed with feverish sensuality, nervous energy, crab-eyed shrewdness, spasmodic fits of piety and paralytic strokes of abstraction. Oh ! A man was half murdered by a negro family in Newburg, for upset? ting a pail of beer. It came near proving his bier. Gen. Howard has come to the con? clusion that the Bureau is a useless piece of furniture. Send it to the auction. A prisoner, who had received no? tice that he was to dio the next morn? ing, was asked by some of his unfor? tunate companions to share their repast with thom. He answered: "I never eat anything that I expoet will not digest." -:---rr~^ FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.. COLUMBIA, December 4.-Bales of cotton to-day 80 bales-middling 18>? ?18%.

Roberts A Co., Atlanta, Ga. Gentlemen: I am voil pleased with the result of the uso of the ''Double Refined Poudrette" on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wherever it wea applied the yield waa more than double what it would havo been without it. I regret exceedingly my not naing it moro extensively the present year, but will try to makeup my foss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable, and easiest man> aged fertilizer within my knowledge, and uu?eriuiiy recommend it ?as 1 havo tried it thoroughly) to tho fanners of this section, and particularly to those planting cotton, from the fact of ita causing it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without tho nae of the Poudretio. I also used it on my garden, and found it of muoh benefit to all kinds of plants. Very respectfully, Ac. G. 8. OGLESBY. Extract from a lotter received from Prof. Martin, of Hampdou. Sidney College, Va., dated July 1,18G7: The Double Refined Toudrette is operat? ing like a charm on my crop, and attract? ing universal Attention from all beholders. I am already satisfied that it is the cheap? est and surest renovator of our worn-out landa. - High Slioals, Ga., October 4,18G7. Janies R. Dev, Esq. Sir: Tho Double Refined Poudrette I bought for two other parties in connection with myself-ono of them used it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered finely; tho other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled his crop. I used it on corn. It answered finely, and was thought by the hand that cultivated tho crop to bo fully equal to Rhode's Super Phosphate. I also used it on about an acre of cotton, and I am cloarly of opinion that it ia tho best and cheapest fertilizer in uso, and I expect to order several tons thia winter. Yours, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. EllavUle, ScMey Co., Ga , Oct. 4,1867. The Double Refined Poudretto, pur* chased of you last spring, I think, in? creased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per acre; nut it upon worn-out pine land, at tho rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled in with cotton seed. Yours, Ac, S. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury, JV. C., August 10, 1867. James R. Dey, Esq. Dear Sir: I eau safely say that your Double Refined Poudrette is far superior to any other fertilizer for cotton; for 1 havo given it a fair trial this season. Yours, JEHU FOSTER, Jn. Savannah, Ga., Septemljer 25, 18G7. James IL Dev, Esq., President. - Dear Sir: I used the Double Refined I Poudrette, bought of you last opriug, ou corn. I think it increased the yield one half. I consider it an excellent manure Respectfully, T. HOLCOMBE. Ridgeway, S. C. , September 21, 1867. Mr. James B. Dey. Sir: I applied tho Double Relined Pou? drette by itself, and in combination with other fertilizers, on cotton, and am pleased with it; so much so that it is my present intention to purchase a larger supply of you the next year to apply to my cotton crop. Yours very respectfully, HENRY C. DAVT8. Rocky Mount, E<lgecomb Co., N. C. Nov 13, James R. Dey. Esq. Sir: In reply to your inquiry of the re? sults of our experience in the use of your improved Poudrette-purchaaed of you for this year's cotton crop-wo would beg leave to say that tho present season haa been one quite unfavorable to thc action of all fertilizers. Several kinds of manures woro used by us, with the exception of your Poudrette, with little or no effect to the crop. Where the Poudrette was used, it gare ua near half a bale moro per aero, and cauBod the cotton to open much earlier; and wo would, therefore, recommend the same as a concentrated manure for the growth of cotton, as well as improvement to tho soil.
