We have never been more surprised than we
were to discover the immensity of the jobbing
trade of Macon. A visit to the large establish
ment of J. B. Ross A Sox, during the past week,
exhibited to us a scene of business and activity,
that we had no suspicion existed in this city.
This old and reliable house has a stock' that is
nncqualcd in size and quality in any interior
city in the South. Every article is sold in bulk,
no packages broken. They have everything
that a perfect mercantile house can contain. An
immense stock of clothing of all verities, quali
ty and fashion, crowds a large portion of the es
tablishment. A full stock of every species of
hardware weighs down tho floors. A constantly
supplied and fresh stock of groceries, and at the
lowest prices at which they can be sold every
where, invites the dealer. The most select qual
ities of coflke^ sugar, rice and ail other articles
of luxury attract the buyer who wishes to select
fob retail trade. The enterprise of the gentle
men comprising the firm is unsurpassed. One of
the members is constantly in New York, pur
chasing for the house, which thereby receives
constantly shipments of goods. By this means
the immense storerooms are kept full with fresh
goods that can be sold at the lowest prices in the
market. We found a throngof retail dealers from
all parts of the country busily purchasing there
and a lively appearance was created by the ship
ments that are constantly being made. No
greater inducements can be offered to the pur
chaser than those offered by the Wrolesalx
Bretts of J. B. Rosa A Sox, in Macon.

Ueoaleteb—About the only sufferer by the
fire on Cotton avenue, a few weeks ago, was Mr.
Lindsay, an old resident of Macon, and a worthy
man. Nothing daunted by misfortune—though
bis lose was folly four thousand dollars—ha hi*
had his store rebuilt, and is getting in a small
flock of family groceries. His energy should be
rewarded by his old enstomers.
Roinar.—The store of Bronson Jt Bieker, on
Cotton avenue, was robbed of about $34 in cur
rency and a few articles of little value, on yes
terday morning. The proprietors had left the
store for a few minutes, and, upon returning,
discovered their loss. Suspicion attaches to a
negro who was formerly employed in the store.

Whatever defects may be discovered can, if
right, lie remedied by the House. In addi
tion to the validity and formality of the ere
dentiuls should these facts appear, the oth
er question which would occur, would be
whether States in rebellion arc now in full
relation to other States, contemplated by the
laws of the United States; or in different
language, whether they are completely re
stored to the rights and privileges in the Un
ion. The question as to whether certain
members elect can or cannot take the test
oath, will not properly occur until after the
election of the Speaker, whose duty it is to
administer it to other members before pro
ceeding on business or organization.
Mitchell County Meeting.
At a meeting of the citizens of Mitchell
county the following preamble and resolu
tions were unanimously adopted, viz:
The amnesty oath just administered makes it
obligatory on all the seceded States to “hence
forth faithfully support, protect and defend
the constitution of the United States and the
union of the States thereunder.” This union,
therefore, should he in sentiment as well as
in law, and anything tending to divert or
distract the unanimity of that feeling should
be punctually and peremptorily discounte
nanced. Be it, therefore.
Resolved, 1*(. That, as a new system has
been ushered upon us as to onr fanning inter
ests, and our labor system has been entirely
changed, we, as good, loyal and faithful citi
zens to the general welfare of our beloved
country, look tho matter sternly in the face,
ami adopt a pulley that will tend to the best
interests of onr people, both white and black.
Resohal 2d, That as we have learned that
some of our citizens have rented out planta
tions to the freedmen of this county; and
given the places up exclusively to their con
trol, that it is dangerous in the extreme to
the white portion of our population to allow
freedmen to establish rendezvous to refugees
and vagabonds and headquarters for misde
meanors and crimes of all characters.
Resolced 3d, That we sincerely hope that
all our people will join us in tins sentiment,
anil discourage renting lands to freedmen un
til at least we become satisfied that they ere
to be trusted. At present we think it will
not only be ruinous to the white people of
this country but also to the black.
Resolced 4th, That clothing the freedmen
with such immunities and raising them in
any degree to a level with the whites meets
our hearty disapproval and condemnation.
Resolced 3th, Thnt every citizen of Mitchell
county will use every possible effort to dis
countenance any such attempts to undermine
our social polity, and, if necessary, take de
cisive steps to discontinue such movemcn'9
and contracts.

The Stonewall.—The World's spe.'iah
speaking of the trip of the Stonewall, tor the.
edification of the Parragu court-martial, says
her speed was ten miles an hour, which is by
no means her maximum. She is said to be
very formidable. Her ram projected twenty-
five feet from her bow, and lies eight feet un
der the watcr. After the trial was completed
the general impression seemed to be that Com
oro Craven exercised a sound discretion
in not attacking her. Had the Niagara’s guns
wanted to make any impression on the four
inch plating of the Stonewall, the result would
probably have been the sinking of the Niag
ara by the latter’s ram. The Stonewall is to
be hauled into the stream and a gun of the
Niagara’s calibre is to be fired at her at adis-
tance approximating to that between her and
the Niagara at the time Commodore Craven
declined to attack her.

—In order that onr readers may understand
matters connected with the release and subse
quent re-arrest of Gurley, the murderer of
McCook, we made inquirtea at headquarters,
and learned the following:
Before the release of Gurley, the president
had not seen the findings 'of the court.—
While the papers were on their way to
Washington, Capt. Goodwin, then in charge
of prisoners here, received an ' order to send
all citizen prisoners, and prisoners of war, to
Point Look Out, for exchange; and he at
once telegraphed to the Commissioner, if cit
izen prisoner^ awaiting sentence, were to be
sent, and received an affirmative reply, and
Gurley, much to his own surprise, was for
warded. It had not been intended by the
authorities, however, to release Gurley; but
no action was taken for his re-arrest, till a
few days since when the President, after ex
amining the proceedings and findings of the
Court, ordered that behe taken into custody
and hanged.
He was at once bronght to this city, hat
was sent back, yesterday, under guard, to
Huntsville, where he will be executed next
