JOHN II. MARTIN Keillor. COLUMBUS : Horning. Dec. 5, 1865. Tueiday As Mr. Asbburn, on behalf of tbn "Na tions! Union men" (exclu.ivoly so-called) of Georgia, appears to have gotten through with his defonce of the loiter of Sfitnpty and other communications of a like character to the Northern pross, we are disposed to let his article of to-day pass with but little comment, especially as it contains no points to which we havo not already replied. His figures of speech may bo very striking and faithful, but we cannot exactly see their point, or, if wo do see it correctly, it is that secession must be acknowledged to have boon un constitutional and treasonable in 1801, bo- cause, unless it is so acknowledged, .Jeff. Davis and his supporters cannot bo ar raigned and convicted of treason ! A pretty sequence to his oponing declaration that principle* live forovor and cannot ho affected by tho mutations of circumstan ces! Fearing that the law may not be strong onough on his side, he wnnls to extort from tho rebels a confession of guilt and then convict them of treason by their own confession. This scorns to ho the roasou why ho is not satisfi :d with tho solemn and plenary abjuration of tho right of socession for the future, made by tho Convention, but insists that it must bavo a retroaotivo scope and atiaint with treason tbo action of a former Conven tion Our correspondent Ims himself furnish ed us, in tho extract from the New \ork Evening Post, with another pretty good answer to his complainings against tho talk and the feedings ol" many of "the robels," and wo regard tho onu as a pretty good offset to tho other. \\ o also con aider tho J'ost's article as n pretty stiong hint to such “Union men’’ as /Mr. Ash- burn that they had hotter go to work at home, and stop filling the papers of tho .North with highly colored representa tions of a robo>lions spiril and purpose still existing at tho South. At all events, wo aro glad to see that tho Post and other moderate Republican papers aro resolved to judge our pooplo by their arts, and not by such reports of individual feeling and expression as may lx* communicated for tho exasperation of Northern senti ment. imi.—Tho last this paper announces that and A Dumblo have sold ifA : to Messrs. »S.

Rut they Government, with which to bankrupt the ^ Stato and dolugo it with blood. J ho 1 ... * * L “ mending or adding to tho Constitution of Georgia is all right, but it was all right in 1861; if not, why has Mr. R. T< the country 7 and by what authority or constitutional law can tho Federal Gov ernment arraign Jeff. Davis before the courts, or any one who took part in tho into insurrection? After you 6hull havo answered these questions satisfactorily to the mind of tho Chief .Justico of the U. S. Court, thon wo will join you in letting all by-gones bo by-gonos. I would to God you were ablo to prove A H fco havo said and written in reference to tha prosent feelings and sayings of your Thk Macon Tki.koka number of th Messrs. Clay land establishment to Messrs. *S. Roy \V. A. Hold, who will hereafter conduct it in association with J. U. Snood, K»q , in the editorial management. Tho Telegraph hits been a very enterprising, able and interesting paper under tho control of Messrs. Clay land Jc Dumblo, and they will rotiro from it with tho host wishes of tho oditoriul fraternity. Wo welcome Mr. Sneed hack again to tho editorial chair, livery Georgian knows him as tho for^or editor of tho Savannah Republican, in which position ho distinguished himself by tho vigor and ability of his articles. Wo need no bettor a^suranco that tho Telegraph will fully maintain its high rank and continue to be one of tho beet papers of tho Houth. Tho assertion that Mr. McPherson, Clork of the Federal llouso of Representatives, lias reconsidered his llrst purpose and w ill call tho roll of tho Southern States, is ro- pcatod so positively that we must suppuso It has some foundation. Wo trust that no party trick is intended by this reported change of tho programme. Most of tho {Southern Representatives elect will pro bably bo absent from Washington at tho opening of tho session, having boon ml* vieod by well-meaning friends that they had belter await tho action of Congress on their claims. Wo confess to apprehen sions tiiat the radical Republicans aro aiming nt and may make party capital by calling tho roll of Southern Representa tives. If thoso Representatives nro called and fail to coinc forward and Lnko the oath, this relieves the radicals from tho responsibility of rejecting thorn o*n tho ground of the political status'jbf their Stato*. They can thus avoid making u direct issue with the President's plan of restoration, and at the same time ofl'ect thoir purpose of postponing tho restoration of the Southern States to their old ruin** tions. Wo shall know more in a day or two. Tho Savannah Republican of tho 1st inst. reports the departure of live steam-, ers from New York iu one day tor Savan nah, and announces that flvo steamers would leave Savannah on the '2d in**., for New York. This indicates a very heavy bubino*?, which must be largely increased when tha railroad communications of Sa vannah are fully restored — Wo cut the following short report from the Macon Telegraph of Sunday. Wo trust that its apprehensions of a fearful loss of life may not be real Tkkriui.k AiviiisNT.—Just before go ing to press we nceivid information of an accident, which wo fear has been dis astrous in its results. The steamer Comet, on its way to Ilawkinsville from Savan Tilth, blow up about twelve miles below tho former place, mi tho 1st instant. Tho boat was loaded with passengers, and w foar that many lives are lo«t. N'o purlieu lari havo yet boon roc ' pooplo incorract. Rut, alas I you havo nof’dono it, cannot do it; and if you will summons to your office (leaving out Jews, Yankcesand darkies) ore hun dred of tho first mon and women your mossongor may moot on the nt roots of Co* lumbur, and lot mo put tho questions to them, and il ninety out of tho hundred don’t say that they hato tho national flag, tho Constitution and laws of tho National Government—that the Yankees and all who aro connected with and in support of tho Fcdoral Government aro thiov rogues and Hcoundrols.and that they thorn- sol ves aro not whipped, only overpoworod —that they submit to bo controlled by the Federal Government bocauso their cir cumstances compel thorn to do so—then 1 will acknowledge tho enclosed loiter to havo boon prematuroly written. Jiut enough of this, as 1 do not consider il po lite for a private correspondent to take the wide rungo allowed to, or assumed by, editors, such as the uso of the silly say ings and doings of an old Dutchman, tho spirit of old John Brown, who ilesrrccdfy mot tho ond of the law for thogri at crime bo committed; yet it can be made to ap pear that his crimo was almost a virtue compared to tho crimes commit tod by your pooplo under and by tho authority of your iStato secession, or 8luto alle giance, or some other authority unknown to law. Ono more item, and I am done. I said that tho object of the Convention was in dicated by tho appointment of commis sioners to draft laws to govern tho freod- mon. To this you reply, or say, J “yot tick to it that the legislature designs to enact two codes.” 1 supposed that the Convonlion looked to tho propriety of having two codos. As for thinking what tho action of the legislature would bo on this or any other question, 1 disown any such intorforonco. I have no objection to tho pnssago of an astringent vagrant law or act, to operate against vagrancy, with out respect to porsons or color. Kudosed find a script from tho editorial columns of tho Now York Evening Post. Wo ondorso it, and if your columns aro not crowded, would usk a place for it, hoping it may arouso our Union friends to action. We call thoir attention to tho importance of what tho editor says In ro- forenco to action. Yours, vory truly. G. NY.

In abort, it is time for tho Unionists in the Southern States to wako up to tho (not that they havo work before them. 1 ho Government has put down armed resis tance; it Las restored the right of free gpeech ; but it can do no more than that. It cannot change tho public sentiment; it cannot turn secessionists into Union men ; that can only be done by continuous agi tation in the pr«as, and in public speeches, by which the people shall be instructed os to thoir Iruo internets. If any man in tho South replies to Ibis, that such discussion would not be permit ted there, wo say to him, It is permitted; free speech can never henceforth bo interim red with in any part of tho Union ; and if any* where tho local authorities should fail of their duty to protect overy citizen in the exorcise of this right, tho arm of tho Gen eral Government will he used at onco to secure llmt protection. The Goneral Gov ernment cannot make a minority a major ity-hut it can, and will, and must, pro tect tho minority in tho fullest exorcise of the right to criiicifo, to assort, and to lay its policy boforo all tho people.

[COM MlNIOATKD.l Mr. Editor: Light and darkness coruo and go, days and nights havo their turn, seasons pass away, parties rise and fall men die, but principles live, and will con tinuo to live so long as tlicro are minds to think, tongues to speak or pens to write Though this be a fact, yet we think it pos sible that your mind is so biased on tho side of your late theory of '‘State alio* giance,” that you cannot recognize any thing but “personal grudge,” hatred malice, revenge, and all there damnable spirits that secession has enabled you to »eo iu thoso who report tho true senti ments of the great body of tho people of Georgia. This new mirror, which you have but recently found in Georgia's old Constitution, reflects tho features of “old John Brown” in all the acts and doings of every national man. This, therefore, was B monstrous Constitution. It first author ixed you to stand sentinel over the national crib and warn old Joe Brown of the consequences of breaking open said crib, but after Georgia’s Convention of 1861, Mid old Joo could use tho secession key (constitutionally) to open the door; you ontered with him and remained till the nationals' sheila commenced bursting, and for fear, in another effort to seize Fort Fu- From the Now York Evoning PoHt Every few days wo receive a letter from some Southern Stato, or son some poivon who has resided there, complaining of tho secession sentiments which are very gene rally and ononly expressed there by re turned rebel officers, soldiers and others. Our correspondents, who are Union men, find thoso utterances unpleasant to their oars; they feel themselves insulted by them, and they would like, in soino way— they do not precisely know how—to put a stop to tho annoyance. They compluin of it as a wrong, that men freely go about the streets ol Now Orleans, or othor Southern cities, cursing tho Yankeo*, lauding secession, praising doff Davis, and speaking disrespectfully of tho Union. But what is to bo done in tho matter? There are fools in every community, and New Orleans appears to have an uncommon number of them,from all accounts. If tho Government should undartnkoto stop tho mouths of all tho fools, it would have its hands full. And, alter all, what is the uso of stopping their mouths? Tlmt doos not change thoir minds. They will rotnain ot tho i opinion still; and, indoed, if they are irovonted from uttering thoir disunion mldordash, they will have a real griev ance—tho first in their livos—which would he a godsend to them ! Thero in ono way, which woroeommond to our conespondonts, which will have iu effect oven upon the fools: If any man in your hearing curses tho Yankees, do you immediately curse tho robels; if anyone speaks disrespectfully of tho Union, lot him know instantly that the Union is his master. In short, lot Union mon insert tbotn- selves as loudly us secessionists; let thorn remember that they are in the Svnitli not by sufferance but by right; that they arc there as conquerors, who have not only right but might also on thoir sido; and lot them exercise on every occasion, to the fullest extent, tho right of free speech. Hut, our correspondents will rejoin, Hi\>lic sentiment is not with us; tho mu* , ority of the people are secessionists ; we are in a minority. Well, the World and othor Democratic journals of the North vill tell them that the minority have asa red and inalienable right to be heard,and to mako ns much noise as they please. A minority in the Northern Stales, in our experience, has always been more noisy, more offensive In its utterances, more do- mon Strati VO in every way than tho ma jority. Let it bo so in tho South too. it is, ss Mr. Elijah Purdy not long ago as- mred his fellow Democrats, a very stupid business to bo in a minority. We, who have had our turn at it, heartily ngreo with him. “What tho Democratic party now needs is powei,” wrote the venerable ingenuous sachem, and that is no doubt precisely tho sentiment ol the Union men in Louisiana and elsewhere. Well, tho Democrats in this State, wanting lo regain the office* set up a tremendous about; they held meetings all over the State; they employed the most effective speakem they could got ; coulontcd with tho great comic genius of Mr. John Van Ruron, aiul tbo pathetic powers of Mr. llorulio Seymour, they imported that eminent *ur, Mr. Montgomery Rlair, and caused him to perform in different parts of the State* Alto, their liveliest writers kept th News by Telegraph.
