The Macon Daily Telegraph. I Pr.lc-FI'H Clisby. ffTIU TELEGRAPH. O'MORNING. NOVEMBER 29, B r tdecra ,R!i co nt *’ n important financial — a-n New York and Virginia, and squint dwastrous an ‘l Woo< ly outbreak in I ■ - B T3F B‘ bp Cnl XT ' cAVAI RV ’ f a P t - Fitzgerald, ■ lr i Yesterday, and made a fine appearance. I MB. GIDDINGS DISGRUNTLED. ■ G flings addressed a letter to honest Tom ■ ,<win. rebuking his impudent conservative B-nresentui >ns about Lincoln. He warns Abe, B he knows what is good for himself, not to B-wer the anti-slavery standard. Giddings is K original inventor of the Black Republican Hyph.ne. and takes it in dugeon that a green- like Corwin, should presume to run it. — Lincoln, Seward, Sumner, Fred ■ :j; »' and Chase, are the patentees of the in- Bfn l ' *n, and they are not going to trust Cor- ■ to work their machine, by no manner o* ■ CIPTCRE OF THE LAKE FORTS. ■ If the English accounts are to be relied on, Wjr Chinese fought with perfect desperation, Bad were shot down at their guns at last. A Bsorv gallant defence could have hardly been and if the Celestials are going to fight in wav ■’ for common," the allied forces will » hard time of it before they get to Pekin, like enough never get there at all. The nnese loss at the forts is said to have been men, killed and wonded. The Allies lost +“0. One of the forts blew up, and 137 ■ 'd ( 'h nese > n that fort were hurried in one Br» v «'. The fight opens in no very promising ■ray to the allied expedition. I THE COTTON PLANTER’S FAIR. ■ Akrasc.ements for the Exhibition. —Y\ e ■ rode down to Camp Oglethorpe yesterday mor- ■ nrag and were well pleased with the progress ■of things th re. Some eight or ten structures ■of various kinds are now nearly completed, be- ■ sides those already on the ground. The house ■ for the exhibition of Foreign and South- ■ rrn manufactured goods is spacious, secure, ■ and well built. Its foundation rests up- ■ brick pillars, and it has a nicely laid floor, ■an I is neatly ceiled in the inside and provided ■ xth an abundance of glass windows. It is a ■ iarge and substantial building, and will be the [ I iaest place for a dance in the city of Macon, ■ when its present purpose has been accomplish- ■ rd. There’s many a beau who will “ dance ■ all night (ill broad day light and go home with ■ the g» »in the mornin’ ” from Camp Oglethorpe, I when the Fair, tight times and political trou- I Hes are over. The grounds are also provided I with a double row of covered stalls, about a I quarter of a mile long, or less, which will cer e| tainly be ample for all occasion of that kind.— I E.ti ui houses and office buildings make up I remainder, and to conclude, a substantial I r trum has been built, from which we may ■ ,-rp.’ t > perfect cataract of eloquence. I If there he any deficiency in the provision of I house ro<>tn, we suspect it will be found in that ■ r manufactured goods, of which the supply I iTomisis to be large. The ship Henry has | t yet arrived, but was spoken on the 9th I and will doubtless soon be in Savannah River. \ large lot of foreign goods will be received by ii. X r York steamers, and the Secretary is adv-d that $75,000 worth will be sent from i. inimd. All this will need a large space. 1 here will be plenty to see and to buy at the Macon F;vr. Election of Presidential Electors. i i" not at all probable, but it is, neverthe- •'S within the range of possibilities, that Lin n may not yet be elected President. Possi ’ y. though by no means probably) it may f ' b yet occur to some of the non-slaveholding >. that the Union is worth more to them flip election of Abraham Lincoln, and at the • ' niu hour they might direct their Electors < i <r some man not committed to the irre- " le conflict against our social organiza- " e would not like to be understood as • coring any hope or expectation of such a re ! we merely say it is not impossible. There- T’*. we 'hould lie in favor of electing Presiden ts ’< < tors in Georgia, in order to be prepared '' " such a remote and improbable contin- South Carolina has chosen electors, and *' »mi’d have Georgia do the same; so that if la<t moment, a better mind should pre- ■ ong the New York electors, and they <i 1 tender a fair man of their own choosing. x, tithern States, advised of the fact, might •r and elect him. \\ e submit this as one —>n why we should not be in favor of the vernor’s recommendation not to elect electors in Georgia. The People Against the Policians." 1 pretty strong illustration of this is given th Milledgeville Dailies yesterday. The I- rdcr publishes a speech of the Hon. B. 11. :J .of Troup, in favor of a policy of waiting t’ of a demand for a repeal of the an slave laws, and for Lincoln to en -1 e that demand against the Northern States; *"d th- Federal I nion publishes the proceed *fa pretty thorough resistance meeting in r m. composed nine, out of teu, by Mr. Hill’s 51 g constituency. The Troup meeting pass ’ll the following resolution : j*/.—That we unqualifiedly con '•’’mi the election of Abraham Lincoln and He sibil Hamlin to the Presidency and Vice : x iency of the United States, because they :c '' been elected by a sectional party whose » : •> have been, and still are, to destroy the < . iality of the States, of the government, and '•-•At their election should not be submitted to by the Southern people. And the official proceedings say : " fine the committee was out. Rev. E. B. •’•ague. Dr. Stanley, J. S. Walker. Prof. W. Johns, Hon. E. Y. Hill, of Alabama, and G. A. Bull, being called for addressed the meeting, and took strong grounds in favor of immediate secession. Truly the people arc ahead of the politicians. OFFICIAL VOTE OF GEORGIA. The official canvas of the vote of Georgia on the Electoral tickets, not including the county <4 Tatnall, is published in the Federal I nion yesterday. Taking the highest man on each • ket, it runs a« follows: Breek. 51,893; Bell -->.’>s; Douglas 11,580. This would make ** joint majority of Bell and Douglas, 2,542. GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGLL The Convention Bill.—The Bill calling a i Convention ot the People of Georgia to deter mine upon the mode and measure of resistance to Northern agression, passed the House on the 20th, unanimoutly— the yeas and nays being called. The election of delegates takes place on the 2d, of January, and the Convention sits at Milledgeville, on the 16th. It gives those counties sending one representative, two, and those en titled to two, three delegates. Per diem and mileage same as in the General Assembly. The Presidential Election—Message of the Governor.—ln the Senate, a special mess age was received from His Excellency the Gov. in reference to the election of electors for the Presidency and Vice Presidency of the United States, and was taken up and read. The mess age recommends that Georgia shall not vote in this election. It was made the special order for Wednesday in the Senate, and in the House re ferred to the Committee on the State of the Re . ; public. A Recess.—A resolution to take a recess un i til the 23d January is.before the Legislature, on i motion of Mr. Hartridge, for the purpose of hearing from the Convention, and perhaps ' avoiding unnecessary legislation of a Federal i character, such as the election of U. S. Sena ! tors. Bills Introduced.—Among a great many |we notice the following: In the Senate, by Mr. j Jordan of Pulaski, a bill to abolish the usury I laws By Mr. King, of Glynn, a bill to facili tate the construction of the Macon & Bruns wick Railroad. By Air. Tracy, of Bibb, a bill to amend the incorporation acts of the South Western Rail Road Company, and to authorise them to’ build a Branch Road. in the House a bill w r as passed to change the time of holding the Superior Courts of Bibb County. THE HOLMAN TROUPE. This 'Troupe, we learn from Mr. Busch, the gentlemanly Agent, will give their first enter tainment in this place on Friday night next.— The Atlanta papers speak of their performance in that city in terms of commendation. But then the best way to judge of such things is for all to go and see for themselves. "If No Bank Suspension ' does not find himself printed in to-day's paper, he may rea sonably infer that the foreman has ruled him out for being late, and that he will have a hearing to-morrow. PUBLIC MEETINGS. We publish the proceedings of large public meetings in Houston, Dooly and Monroe—all for secession. ATTENTION "MINUTE MEN.” It is hoped that every "Minute Man” in Ma con will assemble at Concert Hall, on Friday night. In addition to addresses from Messrs. Tracy, Andei-son and others, business of the greatest importance will be presented ioradjudi cation. Let us devote a few minutes to the hon or and interest of the South. Let every mem ber come in lull regalia. SECESSION. MEETING OF THE MACON GUARDS. Armory Hall, Nov. 16, 1860. At a meeting of the Macon Guards, Ensign Menard in the Chair, the following was offered by a committee appointed for that purpose and unanimously passed: “ .Resolved, That the thanks of this corps are hereby tendered to our late Captain, J. R. Griffin, for the efficiency, ability and dignity with which he has commanded this corps from the date of its organization to the present time.” Ensign MENARD, Chairman. 11. J. Peter, Sec’y. For the Telegraph. Macon, Nov. 20, 1860. Mr. Editor:—As an erroneous impression I has been made upon the community, as to the i action of the committee of the "Floyd Rifles,” in the military convention, which recently as sembled in Milledgeville, as Captain of that corps, and Chairman of that committee, I beg the use of your columns, to place them in a proper position before their fellow-citizens.— Among the many resolutions submitted to the convention for their consideration, there was one with the following preamble : "Whereas, we the representatives of the Vol unteer Soldiery of the State, believe that Geor gia can no longer remain in the Union, consist ently with her safety and best interest, <£c.”— A majority of the committee who were present, thought the introduction of the preamble un wise, as it might bring a p-d'tical element into our military organizations, which would be in jurious to, if not subversive of, the objects con templated in our formation, and therefore in structed me to cast the vote of the corps in the negative, which I did, stating to the convention, that we had no authority to commit the compa ny, either for or against the position assumed in said preamble. This was the position of several other repre sentatives, who voted with us in the negative. For this vote, we have been charged as being subinlssionists. The inference after the expla nation made is a forced one, as the object of the committee was to commit the corps, neither to submission or secession, leaving that to them in their capacity as citizens, to act for themselves. I imagine that the 18 companies who voted with us, are as bitterly opposed to submission to re publican aggressions, as were those who differed with us in that convention. We find no fault with them for their vote, but we protest against a misconstruction of our own. We make no vain I>oa«t, but we believe, should danger threat en our homes or our rights, we will as a corps, be equal to the emergency. This much I have thought due to my corps, for their honor and reputation are dear to me. Misrepresentation of my own position has been so common I need not state it here. Suffice it to say, that lam | opposed to submission, and am in favor of bold, strong resistance, under the Constitution and in the Union. When constitutional remedies fail, we have but one alternative, which is the pre rogative of a people, who know their rights and will maintain them — revolution at any cost and j to the last extremity. Respectfully, I T. HARDEMAN, Jr. THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 22, 1860. PUBLIC MEETING IN DOOLY. Vienna, Nov. 17, 1860. In accordance with a previous call one of the largest and most respectable concourses of the citizens of Dooly which ever met in the county, convened at the Court House so-day atl I o’clock, to take into consideration the political welfare of the Stat j. On motion of Dr. Chas. H. Colding, Col. Eli jah Butts was called to the Chair, and V. A. Coley and Homer M. Key, Esqs., requested to act as Secretaries. The Chair then made a brief statement of the object of the meeting, after which, on motion of Shepard Rogers, Esq., a committee of five con sisting of the following named gentlemen Shep ard Rogers, Esq., Joseph Armstrong, Esq., Wm. B. Cone, Lemuel C. Coppedge and John J. Col lier, Sen., was appointed by the Chair to pre pare and report suitable resolutions for the ac tion of the meeting. The committee obtained leave to withdraw for consultation, when Col. John B. Colding being called on by the Chair, responded in a few ap propriate and patriotic remarks. After a short absence the commmithje return ed and reported the following preamble and res olutions : W hereas the recent election of Abraham Lin coln and Hannibal Hamlin to theofticss of Pres ident and Vice President, respectively by the people of the non-slaveholding States, together with their persistent and wrongful interference for a series of years with the institution of slave ry at the South by such aggressive measures of intolerance as to render it no longer a question of doubt that the Federal Legislature will soon adopt measures for the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia, for the abolition of slavery in all places within the slaveholding States purchased by the United States for the erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dock yards, navy-yards, and other like purposes for the suppression of the slave trade between the slaveholding States, for the prevention of the ad mission into the Union in future of any new State, the Constitution of which may tolerate the institution of slavery, and repeal, or so far modify the fugitive slave law as to render it nugatory, and thereby not only violate the Con stitution of the United States, but wholly break down and destroy the rights of the South under that instrument; and whereas Georgia in her sovereign capacity as a State on her enterance into the Union, reserved to herself or to her people all powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution nor prohibited by it to the States, and believing that her best inter est and her honor as a sovereign State and inde pendent government require that she should prepare to meet all encroachments in a calm and manly spirit of resistance. Therefore I#£. Resolved, That we deem it of paramount importance that the General Assembly now in session, pass an act authorizing and requiring his Excellency, the Governor, to call a Con vention of the people of the State under such regulations as the Legislature may in its wis dom devise. 2nd. Resolved, That William F. Brown, our Senator, and James O. Farnell, our Represen tative in the General Assembly, be, and they are hereby earnestly requested to advocate, vote for, and insist on the passage by the Leg islature, of the Bill introduced by Mr. Hill, of Troup, having for its object the call of a Con vention, in accordance with the views express ed in the above resolution. 3r<7. Resolved, That in the opinion of this meeting, it is the duty of the Legislature of this State, to devise means to have the people of Georgia represented in a General Convention of the slaveholding States. ±th. Resolved, That a copy of these resolu tions be forwarded to our Senator and Represen tative,'and that they be published in the Georgia Telegraph and Southern Recorder, and that all papers in the State friendly to the cause be re quested to copy them. After the reading of the preamble and reso lutions, Mr. Rogers, the Chairman of the Com mittee, made a short address to the meeting, calling upon all present for a free expression of opinion, as to tile adoption of the resolutions. Mr. Armstrong was then called on, who re sponded in an appropriate address, advocating the resolutions, and insisting at some length, on the right of a State to secede, and its duty to jlo so in certain contingencies. The speaker then drew a parallel between the parties now and in 1850, and showed conclusively, that many of the contingencies contemplated by the Union party of 1850, and embodied in the Geor gia Platform, had occurred, or would necessa rily occur, in consequence of the election of Lincoln. MEETING IN MONROE. On Saturday the 17th inst., according to a previous call, a very large, respectable and in telligent portion of the citizens of Monroe Coun ty met in the Court House to take into consid eration the political condition of our Country, and to counsel together in reference to the election of Abraham Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin to the Presidency and Vice Presidency of these United States. The meeting was organized by calling Col. J. S. Pinckard,Hon. Hiram Phinazee, and Hon. David Ogletree to the Chair, and requesting J. R. Rawles, and F. T. Polhill, Esqrs., to act as Secretaries. The meeting was highly entertained by ele gant and patriotic addresses from Hon.H.Phina zee, Hon. F. S. Bartow, and Hon. R. P. Trippe. The Chair, on motion of Hon. C. Peeples, ap pointed the following gentlemen, a Committee of fifteen to report business for the meeting: C. Peeples, R. L. Roddey, O. C. Phelps, R. T. Trippe, A. Davis, J.R. Banks, L. B. Alexander, E. H. Walker, J. S. Stephens, D. McCowan, J. T. Crowder, A. Middlebrooks, B. Zelmer, M. Clower, and W. A. Hartsfield. Whereupon the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: The people of Monroe County assembled to consult as to the present political condition of the country, and to consider what their rights, interests, and honor demand in the crisis, do resolve as follows— That w’e cordially approve of what we have understood to be the recommendation of the Joint Committee dn Federal relations in the General Assembly of the State to-wit: That the present crisis in our national affairs demands resistence on the part of the State of Georgia, and that we recommend a convention of the people at an early day, to determine the mode, measure, and time ot redress.

Black’s Views on Sscession. Southern Members Dissenting. President's Message, &c, Washington, Nov. 21.—1 tis understood here that Attorney General Black has prepared a lengthy opinion on the right of secession, tak ing a negative position, which is believed will form a basis for the Presinent’s Message on that subject, in addition to his usual annual Message. It is believed that the subject was brought up in the Cabinet yesterday,and South ern members dissent upon the legal view of the subject. Government has official information that the notorious Montgomery and others have com menced operation in Kansas, by ’”*nging and killing pro-slavery men, and threatening to compel an adjournment of the land sales in De cember. Letters received here previously state that Montgomery’s force amounted to 500 men, with plenty of arms and ammunition, and other material aid—that from time to time war-like supplies have been received from the North.— Wl iters also say that a demand to adjourn the land sales will be resmted to as a pretext for raising an armed force, the real object being a lawless organization, and raid upon the frontiers of Missouri, Arkansas and Western Texas. Gov. Medary who is now here,and well post ed in regard to Montomery’s plans and designs, will be dispatched immediately to Kansas, and Federal troops will at once be moved to such points as may be necessary for the protection of the people, land offices, public property, &c. F’t. Scott has been named as one point to be in vaded. It is reported that Montgomery assumes the name of abolitionist in the fullest meaning of the term. Bunk Suspensions.

New York, Nov. 21.—The returns from the State are now nearly all in, and the majority against removing the Constitutional restriction against Free Negro Suffrage is about 112,000. [New York imposes areal property qualification on free negroes of $250, and the last Black Re publican Legislature submitted to the people a Constitutional amendment repealing this res triction. It seems the Northern Empire State has a mind after all that the practical applica tion o( negro equality doctrines shall be confined to the South. ] Bloody Doiuga Anticipated in Kansas. Washington, Nov. 21.—Rumors from Kan sas say that large bodies of armed Pro-slavery men and Free Soilers have assembled in the Southern part of that Territory near Fort Scott, and bloody doings are shortly expected. An outbreak is anticipated, about the time of the Land Sales at Leavenworth, if not sooner. Suspension of the Farmers’ Bank of 1 Vir ginia-all the Virginia Banks to Suspend* RiciimoND, Nov. 21.—The Farmers’ Bank of Virginia suspended specie payments to day.— The Banks resolved to pursue a course of policy calculated to prepare for early resumption.
