Colons - ! McIntyre, addressed the eiti
zens of Johnson co., at Wrightsville on
Tuesday of last week, his speech was
a plain and sensible exposition of the
political condition of the country. It
was'well received bv the large crowd
of voters, who left the ground unani
mously of opinion, that the Colonel “is
the right man in the right place.”
An Appeal for Peace.
We have received an interesting ad
dress in behalf of Peace, signed by the
President,' Vice President, &c., of the
Universal Peace Union of America.
It, is addressed to Prussia, France and
fhe balance of the civilized world. As
tfe do not send the Georgian to cither
ftf those nations we do not see any good
we can do by publishing it.
We at the South are advocates cf
Peace more sincere, than Gen. Grant
who says “Let us have peace.” We
sympathize deeply with those who are
cursed with war—we have felt its evils
—we sympathize also with those who
like the Peace Union desire to see an
end put to all wars. But we doubt the
pVacticableness of any plan for this
phrpbse until meh become honest, up
right and God fearing. We have no
hopes of peace in the world while even
in Christian America, the Almighty is
openly and unblushingly dishonored.
1 War Is one of God's instruments for
punishing National as well as individual
sins, and when as in this country, we
see the Constitution of the United States,
the Supreme law of the land openly vio
lated by those who had solemnly sworn
to support it—and the people instead
of rending their garments and sitting
in sackcloth, in sorrow for this national
jftfjury—openly and unblushingly, jus
tifying the crime, and rewarding by re-
election those who have thus dishonored
the Almighty ; we" think the Peace
Uniod had as well close doors, and re
livedaini Inis'more energy than many
who ti r e his juniors by. halt his age,
which is eighty-six years. He is
General Supervisor ot the Sunday
School cause in the State, and says be

Remarkable Masonic Incident.

' ‘‘There is no peace to the wicked’’ !
is the solemn warning of Divine Inspi

The Brown IIou^e, *Ma€ox,—l’n
our visit to Macon last week we stopped
as we have done for years at the Brown
blouse. Apart from, its convenient
proximity to the Depot,, yvhich will al- j Mason, upon which were engraved the
e it a large patronage, the | initials of his name. A little further
investigation, revealed to the beholder
the most-singularexhibition of Mason
ic emblems that was eVer drawn by the
ip genu it v of man upon the tnmaan
skin There is nothing in the history
or traditions of Freemasonry equal to it.
Beautifully dotted oh’ liis left arm, in
red and blue itjg, which time could not
efface, appeared all the emblems of the
entire apprenticeship. There were
the IIo.ly Bible,.square and compass,
the twenty-four inch guage and com
mon gavel. There were also the Mason
ic pavement, represoutatingthe ground
floor of-King Solomon’s Temple, the
indeutical ie.-sel whichsgrrpunds it,and
the blazing star in the centre. On his
right aim, and artislcaily executed in
the same indelible liquid, were the
emblems pertaining to the fellow craft’s
degree, viz : tbe square, the level, and
the pbimb. There was also the five
colupntis representing tbe five orders of
arC-hi teem re-t lie Tuscan, Dotic, Ionic,
Corinthian and Composite.
In removing his garments from his
budv, the trowel prt sen ted itself, with
all ihe'oihc'r tools of operative mason
ty. Over his heart was the pot of in
cense. ’ On' oilier parts of his body
was the tree hive, the book of consti
tutions, guarded by the Tyler’s sword
pointing to a naked hear-.; the A1 !—
Seting eye, the anchor’and ark, the
hour glass, the sevthe, the forty-sev
enth problem ot Euclid, tbe sun, moon,
stars, and comeiW; the tline steps,
vvittch at e emblematical of youth, man
hood and age. Admirably executed
ways give it a large patronage
exce.lenee of its management by the
Browns both father and son makes it as
good a Hotel as can he found in Geor
gia and will always insure for it an ex
tensive popularity. They deserve a
large patronage and we are glad to
know that they have it.
That Flag—it seems that some
excitement was caused amongst the
truly Luil in A tlanta during the State
Agricultural Fair,hy the taking down
i fthe U. S Flag which had been put. up
by some unauthorized parlies. This U.
twice now that tbe United States has
been so outragously insulted, and 'oil
hearts all overthe continent have throb
bed with patriotic indignation. Mr.
Ynncy must be more careful, and while
on this subject, we wish to-suggest to
the managers that if the Luil will furn
ish the Flags, that there be one on every
pole in the fair ground. We trust that
Mr. Yancy will see to it that at the
next fair there shall be no failure prop
erlv tdciisjiidy this Ensign. No let it
wave! it was once the Ensign of a free,
united, prosperous, and happy people.
Now alas! bullet it wave!!

The telegrams last week informed the
