FROM OtJR EVENING EDITION
OF YESTERDAY.
THE CAPTURE OF MACON.
Arrival of Officers from General
Wilson.
COBB. SMITH, MERCEE AID TWO OTHER
GENERAL OFFICERS TAREK.
This morning, Captain Hosea, U. S. A., of
Gen. Wilson's Staff, arrived here from
Macon with several other officers of Wilson’s
command.
In tuu capture of Macon, Gen. Wilson
took five general officers, including General
Howell Cobb, Gen. Gustavua W. Smith and
Gen. Mercer. *
Sixteen hundred men were taken, with
arms and other munitions of war.
A State Convention.— -It appears from ac
conots received from the Interior, that Joseph
E. Brown, the Governor of Georgia, is an
xious that a Convention be held to restore
the “Empire State” to the Union, and en
able its people be protected by the Old Flag.
The Fall of Macon Ga.—lts Impor
tance as a Camcre.— The Union arms, af
ter repeated successes in Alabama, have
marched eastward to the “Empire State of
the South the old flag which has been a
stranger for five years in that hot bed of se
cession, Columbus, in Moscogee Connty,
was again unfured. The capture of this
city with all the small towns lying south of
it, and on the banks of the Chattahoochee
River, has opened navigation to the Gulf by
Apalachicola Bay, and will be of great im
portance for future opeaations.
From Columbus the army moving north
east on the line of the Muscogee Road has
placed under contribution one of thq Garden
spots in the State ; it had never been visited
by an invading army, the barns, smoke
houses, etc., groaned under accumulations of
produce hid and stored away since the be-
ginning of the wur. By the Southwestern
Rail Road from Fort Valley in Houston
County to Macon, the distance is quite short,
in fact only one day’s travel on foot.
By tbe capture of Macon, Georgia, the
southern portion of the State is at the mercy
of our troops, as is also the “ Land of Flow
ers” (Florida.)
Soon may we expect to receive at Savan
nah from that modern Golgotha, Anderson
ville, Sumter county, Ga., the thousands of
Union soldiers who are there held as prison
ers of war. These men, released by their
own government, will ever appreciate the
extreme kindness of the rebel authorities,
who have not by any act of theirs tried to
teduce their sufferings, and have scut forth
their prisoners of war from the charnel stock
ade inert living skeletons.
Macon, in Bibb county Georgia, is situated
on the west.bank of the Ocmulgte river. At
certain seasons of freshets, the city can be
reached by light draught steamers. There
are the following railways which have a
terminus and depot in tbe city. The Georgia
Central Railroad from Savanuah to Macon ;
the Southwestern Railroad from Macon to
Columbus, Americus, Albany, Eufala and
other points; the Macon & Western Rail
road from Macon to Atlanta, Georgia ; the
Macon and Brunswick Railroad, about thirty
miles completed. We annex the following
.statistics of Bibb, Muscogee and Sumter
counties.
Bibb County, Macon the County site.
Free inhabitants, 9,487; colored, 6,791. This
County gained in one year 1,289 to her pop
ulation.
Muscogee County, Columbus the County
site. Free inhabitants, 9,161; colored, 7,447;
increase of population in one year, 1;626.
Sumter County, Americus the County site.
Free inhabitants, 4,638; colored, 4,890.
At Columbus, Georgia, were the Naval
Iron Works of the Rebels; from these works
were supplied all the machinery for iron clad
rams, beside any number of pieces of ord
nance ; shot and shell were also turned out
from these works.
Macon, Georgia, {was the great central
depot of the rebels. The works of the Reb
el Government h-Te were very complete, and
ail kinds of arms were manufactured at thi9
point.
The last important point lsft in Georgia is
Augusta, in Richmond county; here are ail the
large and extensive powder mills of the Rebel
Government, on the banks of the Augusta
Canal, which is well known to be a water
power ot incalculable value. Lying west’of
Augusta on the jSavannah river, is another
garden spot which has never suffered by
visits of the contending aimies.

You, April 23.
(Our tpwlil Correspondence.)
The gftat heart of the Nation weeps over
the death of President Lincoln. Never since
the death of Washington has public feeling
been as strongly excited as by the terrible
event of Good Friday. That on such a day,
the anniversary of the crucifixion of the
God-man, such a man as Mr. Lincoln should
have perished by the murderous hand of an
assassin, was an event unparalleled in the
history of this country, and indeed of the
world. Here, and I suppose all over the
loyal North, the feeling is of unfeigned sor
row at the loss to tbe Natiou, of sympathy
with the bereaved family of the late Presi
dent, and for a deep and lasting revenge up
on the leaders of the unholy cause which
was by its teachiugs if not in its acta, the
real author of the crime. This last named
sentiment almost overrides tbe others, and
well it may. That Abraham Lincoln, great
in his goodness, and good in his greatness,
should have become the most illustrious mar
tyr in the struggle for the Nation’s regenera
tion of such a sentiment, is cause enough in
deed for the extermination to the last man of
the leaders of tire rebellion.
That such will be the result of the iniquit
ous act of Friday of last week is beyond
question. In the murder ot Mr. Lincoln,
the rebels have sacrificed the very man who
wrs most lenient and kind to them, and who
would have aflowed them better and easier
terms when they shall have laid down their
arms, than are likely to be accorded by any
other man, or than it is possible now for any
other man to give them. All feelings of ten
derness for the so-called rights of the South
are drowned in the sentiment of horror now
universal among the people, and in the still
stronger sentiment that for the crime com
mitted against God and man, its real authors
shall be made to suffer everything which it is
possible for the human frame to endure.—
Hereafter the doom is fixed of all the rebel
leaders, from which none shall escape. The
avenging Nemesis is upon their track, and
will not slacken in the chase until all of them
shall have been made to feel, in confiscation
of property, deprivation all rights aDd privi
leges within the national boundaries, and in
death by the halter, that
“The mills of God grind slowly.
But they grind exceeding small."
On Easter Sunday, usually devoted in the
churches to joyous celebration of the burst
ing ot the bars of death by our Saviour ser
mons were delivered which from the brief
space of time allowed for their preparations
by the sad event of Friday night, expressed
in ample terms the true sentiment ot the
people. One discourse by a stem old Pres
byterian Clergyman was worthy of notice.
He was for visiting stern retribution upon
the leaders of the rebellion, and would
“hang Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and
others by the neck until they were dead, so
help him God.” Though out of place in a
house devoted to religious worship, the
building fairly shook with applause from the
The same preacher, who is a man of emi
nent ability stated that he would divide the
leaders ot the rebellion into tnree classes; the
first including Davis and the other high mag
istrates should be hung ; the second class, a
more numerous one, should be expatriated ;
and the third class, the most numerous of all,
should be deprived forever of all the rights of
citizenship, and forbidden from even holding
offices or places of trust under the govern
ment of the United States. This, said the
preacher, is the only way to obtain a last
ing peace, and the church again reechoed
with the assent of his hearers. Such was the
expression of our resident Clergyman, and I
thiuk of thousands of others throughout the
North. Such, too, are the sentiments of our
present President, who, I firmly believe, is
implicitely to be trusted in to finish up the
great work for which Abraham Lincoln gave
his life.
The following is the speech made by An
drew Johnson when the news of the capture
of Richmond were received at Washington.
The sentiments it expresses derive fre9h im
portance from his accession to the Presi
dency :
•‘You must Indulge me in making one
single remark in connection with myself. At
the rime the traitors in the Senate of the Uni
ted States plotted against the government,
and entered into a conspiracy more foal,
more execjable and more odious than that of
Cataliqe against the Romans, I happened to
be a member of that body, and, as to loyalty,
stood solitary and alone among the Senators
from the Southern States. I was then and
there called upon to know what I would do
with such traitors, and I want to repeat my
reply here. I said, if we had an Andrew Jack
son he would hang them as high as Haman
But as he is no more, and sleeps in his grave
in his own beloved State, where traitors and
treason have even insulted his totab and the
venr earth that covers his remains, bumble
as I am-when’’ou ask me what I would do,
my reply, is, I would arrest them ; I would
try them ; I would convict them, and I would
hang them. 1 A. F. L.

(Special Correspondence of the Savannah Herald.)
The news of the capture of Richmond—Connect
icut Election — The Forward Season—Theat
ricals, etc., etc., etc.
• Boston, April 9th.
To the Savannah Herald:
The meeting in Faneuil Hall on the 4th
inst.—the thrilling news of the capture of
Richmond having been received on the 3d—
was made up of all classes and parties.—
Among the speakers were Hunkers and radi
cals—all the way from Robert C. Winthrop
to Fred Douglas. Robert was at a loss for
words to express bis joy, and paid a tribute
not onl£ to the “indomitable Grant, the
modest but heroic Meade, the dashing Sher
man,” but also to President Lincoln and Sec
retaries Seward and Stanton! Fred Doug
lass made a flaming speech, likening his des
pised race to Lazarus in Abraham’s bo9om,
and the rebels to the rich man in torment.—
The enthusiasm was intense. Salutes, music,
fireworks and illuminations have been the
order of the day and the night since. Such
a general rejoicing Boston has never known
since the news of peace after the American
Revolution.
The following is a copy of the telegram
sent, by Gov. Andrew to Secretary Stanton
on the receipt of the news from Richmond:
Commonwealth of Massachusetts,)
Executive Mansion, >■
Boston, April 3rd, 1865. )
To Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War,
Washington, D. C.:
1 give you joy on these triumphant Victor
ies. Our people by a common impulse
abandon business to-day for thanksgiving
and rejoicing. The colored men received
late got in first, and thus is the Scripture
fulfilled. John A. Andrew.
The Richmond news had a very healthy
effect upon the Connecticut election, which
came off the day it was received. The Re
publicans carried the State by about twelve
thousand majority, and left Mr. Peace-at
any-price Seymour to paw his way out from
under that mountain of loyal ballots. The
result of the elections in Connecticut and
New Hampshire, show how the public mind
is progressing in the North. Fifty years of
peace under the old older of things would
not have wrought the change which lias
taken place in the last four years of war.
New Hampshire and Connecticut have al
ways been the strongholds of the Huukers
in New England, and now they are as radi
cal as Massachusetts and Vermont. It is not
only so in New England. Throughout the
North the fire has spread, until it is all one
patiiotic blaze of patriotism and universal
liberty ; and in some parts ot the South, as
in Missouri, Louisiana and Tennessee the
fires of freedom, kindled by the wars, are
burning frightly on the newly erected altars.
Up to the day of election in Connecticut
there was reasonable ground of doubt wheth
er the Unionists would carry every Congres
■ sional district. But Grant settled tbe question.
The only Democratic member of Congress,
Mr. James E. English, who w«9 chosen in
1861 by 1,004 majority, and in 1863 by 1,030
majority, is now displaced, and New England
will undoubtedly present in the coming Con
gress a delegation entirely unanimous for the
right side. Mr. Sweat was defeated in Maine,
Mr. Marcy in New Hampshire, and now Mr.
English in Connecticut, gives place to a
sound Republican and Unionist.
Last November Mr. Lincoln’s majority in
Connecticut was 2,406. Last April Bucking
ham had, for Governor 6,658 over Seymour.
Now Buckingham has between 10,000 and
12, majority; all the Congressmen are Union
ists, and all of the twenty-one Senators are
of the same political faith. The House of
Assembly is more than three-fourths Repub
lican.
The following State officers and Congress
men have been elected, all Unionists:
Governor—Wm. A. Buckingham.
Lieut. Governor—Roger Averill.
Secretary of State—J. Hammond Trum
bull.
Treasurer—Gabriel W. Coite.
Comptroller—Leman W. Cutler.
Congressmen—Henry C. Deraing, re-elect
ed ; Samuel L. Warner, in place of James E.
English, Democrat, not re-nominated; Au
gustus Brandagee, re-elected; John H. Hub
bard, re-elected.
The season is remarkably forward here;
the Winter melted into the lap of Spring so
rapidly that it was generally reported the im
portant maple sugar interest would be seri
ously affected. But late reports are to the
effect that the sap is running rapidly and
sweet, and that large amounts will be made,
as usual in the Northern part of New Eng
land.
The quota of Massachusetts on the last
call for troops, has been filled with the ex
ception of fourteen men, divided between
four or five towns. There has been no draft
in this State. $ Iu Maine, the draft has been
quietly proceeding, as also in some parts of
New Hampshire. But it has few terrors
now that the backbone of the rebellion
seems to be really broken.
Quite a large distillery was seized by the
Internal Revenue officers of the Government
ip Boston, last week, for evading the revenue
law. It was operated by W. E. French, and
probably owned by his brother, Jones French,
who was the Provost Marshal of New Or
leans under the reign of Gen. Butler.
Tbe theatrical season continues brilliant
and successful. Booth is playing legitimate
i characters, supported by a miserable com*
pany, and drawing crowded houses, M*
Jurgnet’s French troupe opened for a brief
season at the Tremont last Monday evening.
The Museum is crowded as usual. They
are playing the Streets of Boston, with an
occasional benefit. At tbe Howard there is
a sensation season. Morris Brothers and
Buckleys pack their halls every night
lota.
A Benefit for Mr. Sweatnam,— As will be
seen by the appended letters, a benefit has
been tendered to Mr. W. P. Sweatnam, Man
ager of Sweatnam’s Varieties, by a number
r of *geutlemen, prominent in military and
other circles in Savannah. We are glad to
see this movement in behalf of Mr. Sweat
nam, whose enterprise and ability as a man
ager, and eminent talent as an actor, should
receive substantial recognition at the hands
of the public, for whose entertainment he
has labored so assiduously and successfully:

Fishing Parti.—A party of gentlemen of
piscatorial proclivities left the city yesterday
morning in carriages aud on horseback for
White Bluff, the celebrated fishing-ground.
The capture oi Capt. Hodges the night be
fore had completely demoralized and disor
ganized the original party, which, therefore,
was somewhat reduced in numbers, at- the
hour of starting in the morning, including
only those whose enthusiasm as disciples of
Isaak Waltou overbalanced their, apprehen
sions of guerila operations at their expense.
The excursionists Arived safely at White
Bluff, having suffered no molestation.
A warm and hospitable greeting was ex
tended to them on their entrance into this
beautiful town, by Messrs. Isaac D. La Roche
and Moses A. Cohen,, who were of the party,
and are old residents of White Bluff, The
tide which proverbially waits for no man nor
fishing party, had passed the stage best suit
ed for fishing operations, which were accord
ingly temporarily suspended. The forenoon
however, was pleasantly spent in inspecting
the beautiful hamlet of White Bluff, and iu
calling upon thQ hospitable inhabitants. Mr.
Charles Van Horn aud bis estimable lady,
were especially attentive to the visitors, who
brought away many beautiful bouquets from
Mr. Van Horn’s well-kept gardens. An ex
cellent chowder was served at dinner time,
which with other cheer sufficed to console the
excursionists for their “fishetman’s luck.”
Toasts were drunk, speeches made, and
songs suug, and the afternoon passed alto
gether as pleasantly as could have been de
sired. Tbe excursionists returned to their
carriages at about five o’clock, reaching the
city again at a seasonable hour highly de
lighted with their trip, and parted with many
expressions of good will to their catsrere
Messrs. Laßoche, Bell, Mason and Col.
Presdle.
