THE MEETING AT CUNCERT HALL Last night, for the purpose of considering the p« ' prie’y of fusing, was. on motion of Col.

G. Sparks, Es'l . i ime forward and took their seats. The Chairman of the Breckinridge Commit tee not 1.,-ing present A. G. Bostick. Esq., was requested toaid in the deliberations ofthe meet ing a- a representative of the Breckinridge party. H.-i. Thomas Hardeman, Jr., rose and offer ed a set of resolutions, proposing to leave the mate r of fusion with the defferent Executive Committees of the respective parties, with a re quest that they attend the meeting at Atlanta, on M inday the 2«.»th inst. Mr. H. supported th- rt -options in a short speech. t 01. Has.- advocated the adoption of the res o'.utmns and was speaking when our reporter left. Fi st<>N IN Pknn-sy I.v vnia. The Douglas State Central Committee, at a meeting in Philadel phia on Thursday night last, withdrew their straight out ticket.-, and pledget! themselves to -upport the Reading electoral ticket. They endorsed Douglas and Johnson and the nomi nees of the party. An attempt was made to era-e the names of the Breckinridge electors from the tickets, but it was unsuccessful. Tho best way to Act, if Action bee omes Necessary. Whatever mode of resistance to Black Re publican domination the South may decide up on, it is of the greatest importance that we all be united and agreed upon that mode. It is not perhaps to be expected that complete unity can be obtained in favor of any particular plan. But the best way, and in our opinion the only way to give general satisfaction, and command a united effort, if resistance is determined up ! on, is, to call a Convention of the people.— Whatever the State through a general Conven tion may decide upon, will be binding upon all our citizens. Every citizen of a State, owes paramount allegiance to the State. Our alle giance to the Federal Government is condition al, and pepends upon the fact of our State ad hering to the Federal coinpact or not. If through the agency of a State Convention, call ed for that purpose, our State withdraws from the Confederacy, we no longer owe allegiance to the Federal Government. We deprecate and should deplore any premature action by indi viduals or mobs. W * >n we act, if act we must, *et us act like a brave and uniter! people, who know their rights and dare maintain them. Any decisive action on this momentous question by the Leg islature, in our opinion, would not be wise or satisfactory. The present members of the Leg islature were not elected by the people for any such purposes, and the most they could do consistently, would be to provide for calling a Convention. A Convention will concentrate public opinion, and give force and efficacy to > that opinion. We yet hope there will be no necessity for any action. We hope that by some means, the election of Lincoln may be prevented. We hope that God in his infinite mercy may interpose and save our country* and the world from such a dire calamity.— But if come it must, it become the people of the South to meet it like men. Let us act coolly, wisely, and if possible, harmoniously, and in order to obtain such action, we believe it will be necessary first to have a Convention of each State, and then of all the Southern Slates. We copy the foregoing from the Federal Un ion of yesterday and add our entire approval of its suggestions. Not only were “the present members of the Legislature elected for no such purpose," as the consideration and adoption of extra constitutional and unconstitutional retne' dies against sectional agression, but no members of any State Legislature of Georgia, can, in the nature of things, he elected and qualified forany such purpose. We must have svpreine authori ty for such movements—an authority of which the Constitution itself is but the creature—an authority which can hind the fidelity and alle giance of every citizen of Georgia to the support of its decisions, whatever they may be. Such a convention should be called by Act ofthe Leg islature, fixing the time so as to allow a full and fair discussion and determination of the ques tion which will be brought before it by the peo ple, and the convention can then authoritatively settle and determine upon the course of the State with satisfactory assurance that their ac tion will be sustained by the people. Georgia owes it to herself to move in this matter with resolution, dignity and indepen dence. ’There is time enough for deliberation and counsel, and if any of those outbreaks of popular violence should occur, which the Fed eral Union thinks possible, we have only to say that they will defeat their own end. They will certainly diminish that spirit of resistance among the sober masses of the people, which is founded on judgment and reason, and must be relied on for the defence of the State and the South. Any revolutionary and lawless violence will but disgust thinking and patriotic people. ■ ntH ■«. If l,i HO oln should be elected President his message would never be disposed of. Its tone would be of so anti Southern and malig nant character, that Southern Representatives and Senators would be compelled either to withdraw from the halls of Congress, or to re sort to open hostility iu defence of their rights. If they should be under the necessity of re sorting to such measures there is not one of their constituents that would raise a voice in opposition to it. What is the difference, then, between the withdrawal of Representatives or their refusal to go to the federal capital in a reprentative capacity? It does really seem to us that secession is both a natural and an in herent right.— Atlanta Loconwtire. If we were abetting man, we should dispos ed to venture a small stake on that. If Lincoln ever gets to a message, people will be disap pointed who look for anything malignant in it. It will be oily and insidious. ' SALE OF GOVERNMENT SECURITIES. 1 lie propositions for the ten million govern ment loan were opened in Washington last Monday with the following result. It will be seen that Federal securities are still at a pre mium : With the exception of .Messrs. Riggs & Co., of Washington, there were no bidders South of Philadelphia. The whole aggregate bid was for less than eleven million dollars. The pre miums ranged from five to ninety-nine hun dredths of one per centum. The largest amount bid for was by Messrs. Riggs A Co., who bid for two and four fifths of a million. SENATOR In the Columbus Ttmes of Monday, in an swer to an allegation of the Star, charging him with saying that any Southern man who ac cepts office under Lincoln should be mobbed, denies the expression of any such opinion, and says: “I do not hesitate to say that in myopinion, any Southern man who would accept office from a Republican President, elected upon the platform of the Republican party of avowed hostility to Southern slavery, would be no bet- j ter than a Black Republican, and ought to be i condemned and ostracised by universal public sentemeut, and whilst! hold a seat in the Sen- | ate of the 1 . S. I will vote against the confir mation of every Southern man, who will be rot ten enough and base enough to accept office from Lincoln. If this declaration will aid the cause of Douglas or Bell here or elsewhere, their friends are welcome to make the most of it."

WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 24, 1860. i I FUSION IN GEORGIA. Col. Gardner publishes a card in the Consti tutionalist of yesterday, in which he suggests that the members of the three Executive Com -1 mittees in Georgia, meet at Atlanta, next Mon day, to agree upon one electoral ticket, and that the electors on the several tickets meet the I Committees also at that place. He adds : The conviction is rapidly spreading and deep ening throughout the State that the people of Georgia should stand, at the approaching Prcs- ■ idential election, united as a band of brothers, 1 and have but one electoral ticket in the field to be voted tor on that day. The elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, so clearly in dicating the probabilities of a Black Republican f being elevated to the Presidential chair, have gone far to stifle the voice of faction and the i wrangles of party. The solemn convictions of ' danger to the Union, and of dangers threatened I which would be infinitely worse than disunion, are drawing Georgians of ail parties together in a spirit of fraternity. paramount pre i vails with alWfftmdefettt of Lincoln. Thecon ‘ viction is unixTTsal that Georgia should so cast > her vote as win.Joest tend to that result. The conviction is not less universal that the people ’ of Georgia should have no divided counsels as to the policy’ cl the State in the event of Lin r coin’s election. The instinct of self-preserva- > tion dictates that the people of Georgia—aye, i the people of the South--should be one people, ' in feeling, in purpose, and in action, should i that disastrous result be forced upon us by • Northern fanaticism. The members of the Executive CommitteeK of ‘ the three parties in Georgia, and the electors of ■ the three tickets now before the people, consti tute a body of enlightened, tried and trusted men. In their united counsels the people of Geor- ? gia would repose confidence. By their united ac - tion they would be willing to be guided in this crisis. Why can they not unite —unite as friends and fellow-citizens involved in a com mon danger, resolved to avert it if possible—re solved, if they cannot avert it, they will meet it, when it comes, with locked shields, shoulder to shoulder, as a band of brothers ? ’ The suggested meeting cannot, in all human probability, change the result of the Presiden tial election. It may fail to harmonize couflict . ing sentiments in Georgia. It may fail to place the State in a better position for the coming storm. But I make the suggestion in deference to those patriotic citizens who have appealed to me to move in the matter. The Constitutionalist commenting upon Uol. Gardner’s card,[says: “We have before stated our conviction that a union of parties in Georgia could do no good— first, because too late; second, because we need thirty-tiro northern electoral votes, which all the South combined can’t make. The communication of the proprietor of this paper, proposes a joint electoral ticket, for the promotion of fraternal feeling among all parties in Georgia; and to any movement which has for its object the union of all southern men, we give our cordial assent. We want Breckin ridge men and Bell men, not for present, but future power. This is with us no party trick, for we propose to ignore all party but the South. And we want the election to close friendly, so that the great southern convention, and the next Legislature, will see all Georgians muted on the platform which has for its only plank, love of THE SOI’TH. We repudiate fujum forany other ultimata object than the union of the South for coming events.” It is too late to perfect a fusion movement in Georgia. But to the object here avowed we say amen with all our heart. If a crisis is not now upon us calling trumpet-tongued upon the pa triotic people of this commonwealth, to stand shoulder to shoulder in whatever course of remedial action the wisdom ofthe State may de vise, nonesu.-h will ever occur. SIR THOMAS MORE. None of the murders committed at the dicta tion of Henry cast such a stain upon his name as the sacrifice of this the greatest lawyer, the brightest scholar, and the most polished wit of his time. There was a perfect agreement be tween the tyrant and his chancellor as long as the Reformers were to be repressed. Henry’s quarrel with Rome was not about the extent of the papal power, but about who was to wield it. “Let her cities be burnt,” he said—“let those who deny the efficacy of absolution, and the power of Saints be tortured as much as you like. Let all who dissent from the Church be punished with the utmost rigor; only, let everybody confess that of that Church I am supreme and only governor.” In all his other sentiments and beliefs, Sir Thomas More most fervently joined; but, on the last claim of the k ing, the partnership was dissolved. The Pope had been so long acknowledged the chief of the Church; the laws which Sir Thomas had stud ied had so firmly established this principle, that he was now too old to give up an opinion he had been brought up in ; and, accordingly, as he had persecuted heretics for differences as unimportant as this, he at once made up his mind to undergo the same fate he had inflicted on them. The royal supremacy here claimed by Henry was not any power that interfered with the doctrines of the Church, but meant that the clergy should be subjects of the king and not of the Pope. On this point, Sir Thom as More was firm. He was tried, not for here sy, as his victims had been for denying the transubstantiation of bread into the flesli, but for treason in denying an authority which Par liament had expressly acknowledged as inher ent in the. king. He was convicted of resist ance to an act of parliament, and early on the morning of the 6th of July, 1535, it was an nounced to him that he was to die before nine o’clock. His good humor and liveliness never left him. Indeed, there is something not alto gether satisfactory in the frivolous mirth with which his last scene was accompanied. We should have been better pleased if the closing hour had brought more melancholy thoughts. On the contrary, he seemed to grow funnier, the nearer the axe approached. When he was conveyed to the Tower, the turnkey, who had the strange privilege of pillaging his I prisoner, asked him for his uppermost garment as a perquisite of his office. Sir liomas mer rily presented him with his cap, and told him that was his uppermost garment, and be hearti jly wished it was of more worth. As he was being led out of the Tower to his execution, a woman reproached him for detaining some deeds when he was in office. “Good woman,” said he, “have patience a little,” for the king is so generous unto me, that within this half-hour, he will discharge me of all my business, and help thee himself.” As he ascended the scatfold, he asked one of the officers to help him up, ad ding, “and when I come down again, let me shift for myself.” And this scoffing manner ac enmpaired him to the moment of his death. After he had prayed, and had laid his head upon the block, the executioner begged his forgive ness. “I forgive thee,” said he, “but prithee, let me put my beard aside, for that hath never committed treason"—adding, “Pluck up thy spirit man, and be not afraid to do thine office ■ my neck is very short, take heed, therefore, that thou strike not wrong for the saving of thine honesty." The wit of these speeches scarcely seem bright enough to carry off the gloominess of the period he chose for their utterance; but thev show, perhaps, that his conscience was at rest, aad that he was satisfied with the cause for which he died. -Blaekncooil. n u,e caUbe A Cool Operation.— Hullo, there, capting,’ ; said a brother Jonathan to a captain of a canal ! packet on the Erie Canal, ‘what do you charge | for passage ?’ ‘Three cents per mile, and boarded,’ said the . I captain. . ‘Wai, I guess I’ll take passage, capting, i seeing as how I’m kinder gin eout walking so j far.’ Accordingly he got on board as the steward was ringing the bell for dinner. Jonathan sat ” down and began demolishing the ‘fixins’ to the ! utter consternation of the captain, until he had j cleared the table of all that was eatable, when > he got up and went on deck, picking his teeth very comfortably. ‘How far is it capting, from here to where I got on board ?’ ‘Nearly one and a half miles,’ said the cap tain. ‘Let’s see,’ said Jonathan, ‘that would be just four and a half cents ; but never mind, capting, I won't be small; here’s five cents, which pays my fare to here ; I guess I’ll go • ashore now; i'nkindei rested emit.’ Frepaout’s Mariposa mines are now yielding very large returns, and these are con stantly increasing. Mark Brumagin & Co., i bankers in san Francisco, received last week the sun! of $11,833 in gold bars, being the pro duct of six day’s run of the mills. Great im provements Oe going forward upon this estate. A new mill will soon be erected at the Prince ton mine, and another near the city of Maripo sa. At Bear Valley, Mr. T. W. Park, who is now conducting the business upon Colonel ’ Fremont’s ranche, has nearly finished exten sive stables, and a warehouse and store. The “Josephine,” “Pine Tree,” “Mount Ophir,” “ Princeton,” and in fact all the principal leads ot the Mariposa grant, are proving richer the farther they are worked. Upwards of $35,000, it is reported, was taken out of L[ie Mount Ophir claims, in Tuolumne county, one day last week. A CAKD~ Macon, October 23d, 1860.

TXTITH the facilities and long experience we possess n in the Musical Business, we did not only si iect the BEST PIANOS, as regards tone and durability, but have also effected the most advantageous terms to our customers for the supply of superior Instruments. We partly selected our Pianos and partly had them made to order. We are now receiving, without doubt, the best selection ever before brought to Macon, consisting of 6 1-2, 7, and 7 1-4 Octaves in plain an higdhly finished cases to suit every taste.— These Instruments we are prepared to sell either for Cash, on time, or month ly installments, at the lowest Factory prices. The latter arrangement, we think, will be accepted by many persons in want of first class Instruments, who are perhaps not willing to pay the entire amount at once, and to whom it will be easier to pay in monthly installments. Our object is to assist such persops in procuring a first class Piano, for whose superiority we willgive alive year’s guarantee— We intend to effect large sales, and are satisfied with small profits. fcs7“*Come and see our Stock to be convinced that we ought and really have such instruments as we repre sent them to be.
