Wo propose to luve this meeting on the second day of the Fair, to-wit: the 17th, in the Council Cham ber in Macon, and if no objection is made will issue the call for that time.

He is also the hero of one ot more newspaper libel suits; and to this last circumstance more perhaps than to anything alee, he owes bis present notoriety. Associated with thorn are qeite e number of looser lights, who entered the late conspiracy to double their fortunes by an insidious attack upon tho credit of the Nation. The result is already known to the peblio; how President Grant broke np the hellish conspiracy by ordering tho sale of Gov ernment gold; hew, like Mordeoui, tho ocn- apiraiore were hanged npon the gibbet they had erected for other*; and how they have since aeweyed to divert attention from the damning infamy of their own sets by soekinj to Implicate the President end oortain of his Cabinet Ministers in this shameless and disre putable plot The fads have oil boon laid before the pub- lio. Every reador of the newspaper proas in the United State* ia familiar with them; and sioce the publication of Geu. Grant's lotteruo men. North or South, outside of this iniqui tous Wall street gold Ring, has been pre pared to listen, with any degree of patience, to those vile oalumuiee which would couple the name of the President with a transaction so foreign to hie nature, and which UU very soul iuBtiuoUvely abhors. But, unscrupulous and audacious to the last; smarting under their defeat; chagrined si finding themselves the victims of their own transparent villainy; and, in a fit of desperation, such as is expe rienced only by faileu gamblers, they have actually invaded the sanctity of tho Prosident'i family circle, and seek to implicate a pure- minded and unsuspecting woman (whose very u&me should be held sacred from profanation even by men so abandoned to integrity), their disreputable financial plots. Yea, oven the name of Mrs. Grant has boeu associated with that of Corbin—a weak, indiscreet, and unfortunate, but withal doubtless an honest man -all for the purpose of raising a dust wherein to hide the lower depths of their own infamy. This last slander is in perfeot keeping with the general character of the men who invent ed and gave it publicity. It is quite needless to say that no honest man, outaide of a Luna tic Asylum, can be made to believo it. needs no very serious refutation at our hands. It is one of those diabolical fabrications tbat should not be dignified even by a denial, will fall still-born from its source; and will, in tho end, tend only to increase the odium of this infamous thieving Wall street gold Bing. Contempt is said to havo tho property of de scending, but it can never reach certain New York editors (such as he of tho Sun) who have thus prostituted themselves to men like Fisk and Gould. They may enjoy the wages of their shame with impunity, since they have placed themselves wholly beyond the recog nition even of contumely; but if there bo any thing which wonld justify measures looking to the suppression of such public nuisances as sometimes crop ont in the honored pro fession of journalism, as practiced in this eountry, the case under review is unquestion ably one in point Such hellish libels upon the personal character of the Chief Magistrate of the nation, and such fiendish slan ders directed at his private family circle, arc without parallel in any civilized oountry; and they are all the worse for having been invented aud uttered in the per sonal interests of men whose very names are synonymous with every species of commercial immorality and open thievery-wen (mankind we beg pardon) who have publicly cut them selves loose from all conventional restraint, and who stand before the public in the atti tude of unmasked villainy. As a Southern journalist, and viewing this whole infamous transaction from a Southern standpoint, we can bat express the hope that no Southern man, bo bis political faith what it may, will ever so far forget his traditional character for self-respect, or so far ignore his obligations to his race as to countenanco even for a substan tial consideration the efforts of these mad dened and desperate gold gamblers to mitigate their infamy by attacks npon the President’s family circle. Greater villains than these Wail street vagabonds and shoddy stock gamblers never cat a throat or scuttled a ship; and yet they have the audacity to assooiate tho name of Mrs. Grant with their own lnex« prosssiblo infamy I Surely, impudence hath no higher limit! ."ififbrms ua that out Andrew beta defeated far a teat I u Ufa Unitad ’ Cfcr litu frlaed Uo«vheluiiqg- Th* ont bum ^, lo1k , skovera .

James Hotel bjr th* Tonnosoeoans over Ills Defeat — Congratulatory Resolu tions. The Republicans of Teunesseo who are tem porarily insidiug in Washington, met Satur day evening, at the St. James Hotel, at 8 o’clook, for the purpose of expressing their gratitude for the dc-feat of Andrew Johnson in their State. The parlors were filled to over flowing by the friends of the Republicans from Tennessee. On motion, Judge J. W. North, of Knox- villo, Tennessee, was called to tho choir, and GoL John Robinson, of Carroll county, Ten neesee, elected Secretary. Judge North explained the objeot of the meeting in a well-timed speech, congratulat ing the country upon the glorious result of the late Senatorial election in their State. At the conclusion ot the remarks of,the Judge, on motion, a committee of five were appointed to present suitable resolutions ex- piessive of the sentiments of the meeting.— The committee retired, and in a short time the Hon. U. R.

This theory is founded on observation of facts as periods in the time of growth. It is thus stated: When onoe the bones and epiphpsis ars united, tho body r ws uo more, aud at twenty years this union effected in man. In the camel it fakes place at eight; in the horse at five, and in the rabbit at one The natural termination of life is five removes from tho several points. Men, being twenty years ingrowing, lives five times twenty, that is, ous hundred. Tho camel is eight years growing, and he lives five times eight, that is to say forty years; the horse is flv* years in growing, and he lives twenty-fire years, and so with other animals. The men who does not die ot sickness, battle, bullets, railroad accidents—earthquake* excepted— lives o very where from eighty to ono hundred years. Providence has given to man a century of life, but he does not attain it bec&nso ho in herits diaesses, oats unwholesome fruits, give* license to passions, and permits vexation to disturb bin healthy cquipoe*. He does not die; he kills himself. The learned professor divides lifo into equal halves, growth and de cline; and the halves iuto infancy, youth, virilty and age.
