On our first page trill be found an appeal
from the Mayor of Macon, in behalf of the suf
ferers by the late terrible conflagration in
Madison. We submit that Maoon ought to do
something in their behalf, and the sooner we set
about it the better. ...
A Ceorgla Expedition to Cuba.
The Savannah News of Wednesday says :
We have heard rumors far several days past
of an expedition preparing to embark for Cuba,
and yesterday we were informed, by a gentie-
man who professed to speak from his own per
sonal knowledge of the fact, that some seven
hundred and fifty men from the upper portiqn
of State, the names of some of whom he
mentioned, bad arrived in this vicinity within
the past two or three days, on their way to em
bark for Cuba.
There is a warm sympathy for the straggling
Cabans throughout the country, and though,
as we think, Southern men might better employ
their energies at this time, we have no doubt
that unless order is re-established on the island
it will be overetm by filHhustoring adventurers
from the States. We would advise our young
men to keep aloof from an enterprise, which of
fers only certain hardships and peril, and in
which they can now have no political interest
Non them Lands.
The Western papers are opening their eyes
wonderfully on the subject of the value of South
ern lands as compared with lands in that quar

this showing of comparative crop values.

The Chronicle A Sentinel announces the re
turn of the Augusta Conservative delegation
from Washington, and speaks of the result of
tli. mission as follows -
Nearly all of the respectable gentlemen who
were in this delegation were Democrats —
Southern Democrats—openly and avowedly so.
Moreover, they were of that class that would
not and did not hesitate to communicate this
fact to the President in propria persona:. It is
gratifying to record the fact that the President, WM

Which would amount to a considerable bal
ance in favor of Louisiana lands in the course
of a hundred years. And yet Louisiana lands
can bo bought very cheap. The Louisville Con-
rier-Joumal says:
We advise all men, who have the means, to
bay Southern estates or lands before the pres-
ent opportunity parses,and at tho game time wo
advifto the people of the Sonth not to part with
their possessions for inadeqnute prices if they
can possibly manage, eyenat great inconveni
ence and considerable saenflee to retain them.
Tho advice, we know, is good. Every Northern
or Western man who bays a fine tract of land
in the South at present rates, bnys what will be
a fortune, and every Southern man who keeps
such a tract keeps what will be a fortune. This
is true if there is truth in the laws of natnre.
Swinging Ronml tlie Circle.
Tho editor of the Central Georgian left San-
dersviUe on Sunday, the 18th of April, on a tour.
He-penotrated Wilkinson, and there took tho
railway track for Macon. Hero he inspected
matters closely, and then cut loose for Atlanta.
Spending two days in Atlanta, he departed
thence for Augusta, and from Augusta home
again. Tho result of his observations seems to
be oondensod in the following paragraph:
With all duo respect to other cities on onr
route, we most say we found business better in
Macon than at any point at which wo stopped.
Macon is upon a firm basis; her merchants are
of tho first order, and prosperity is written on
Tho future for Macon is indeed o

bright <
The Central Georgian is a philosopher of no
moan proportions.

Dzstbuctivk Finn.—On Friday last, says the
Central Georgian, the premises of CoL John B.
Wright, of Johnson county, were almost totally
destroyed by fire. All his buildings, (except
the dwelling house,) including cribs, gin house,
barns, Ac., were laid in ashes. He lost also,
100 bales of cotton, about 3,000 bushels com,
and fodder in proportion, some 15,000 or 20,000
pounds bacon, and 30 tons guano. 30 or 40
head of hogs wore also burned under the gin
house. Entire loss estimated at about $40,000.
Tho firo originated in tho lint cotton while gin
ning, and was, of course, purely accidental.
Axotbzb Euomnjrr Dzmsiox.—Tho Savan
nah Republican, of Wednesday, says that tho
Ordinary of Chatham county decided yesterday
that colored men are not eligible to office, and
Lewis B. Entires, who reoeived the next highest
voto to Andrews, colored, in the First Militia
' District, was duly commissioned as county
Constable.
The protests in the case of tho Fourth District
have been withdrawn, and the only contest now
is between Connell and Wilson, it being alleged
that the latter is not twenty-one years of age.
A London correspondent of the New York
Times says the favorite “revival preachers, 1
so-called, in England, now are “converted bur
glars, gamblers, footpads,” etc., who often mako
their announcements in character. Here is one
of them, clipped from a Sonth London paper:
Ned Wright, the converted burglar, will preach
at the Wandsworth Assembly Rooms, and break
open the doors of hell with a gospel jimmy.

“Night Scenes from the Bible.”
Thia Is a splendid work, executed in the highest
style of art, and copiously illustrated by tho finest
steel-plate engravings. Its title suggests its pur
pose and contents—to illustrate by text and engra
ving those snblime and thrilling scenes portrayed in
holy writ both in the Old and New Testaments. The
following recommendations of the book have been
furnished the Macon canvasser:
As pastors of Churches in this city, it affords ns
leaanre to say that from all tho information we
an gather, ‘Ibo Night Scenes from tho Bible’’ by
Dr. March, is a most excellent and valuable work,
ft is free from denominational bias; and is a pre
sentation in an original form, and beantifnl style,
of many of the meat important and interesting
events in tho Bible.
Wo recommend it to the members of onr con
gregations. E. W. Wauben,
' Pastor First Baptist Church.
Joseph 8. Key,
Pastor Mulberry Street Church.
J. Blaxelt Sjoth,
Pastor First Street Methodist Church.
Macon, March 12,1869.
A brief examination of “Night Scenes in the Bi
ble” has led mo to form a favorable opinion of its
merits. Bov. Dr. March, the author, lias here por
trayed, with peculiar simplicity and pathos, some of
the most sublime and touching scenes in Biblical
history. These striking sketches, in point of literary
excellence and mechanical execution, may be fitly
etyted apples of gold in baskets of silver. To the
youthful reader, they poesees all the charms of sa
cred poetry; and the maturer mind may call from
these published pages choice leeeona of instruction.
We regard thia as a beautiful and useful book for
tho family. David Wills,
Pastor of Presbyterian Church, Macon, Ga.

H. M. Turner's Letter to J. M. Mints.
NOTE FltOM THE PASTOR OP THE A ERICAS 1C. 1
CHURCH IN 3CACON.
Macon, Ga., April lfith, 1869.
Messrs. Editor*: It was with feelings of the
most profound regret, that I read in your issue
of yesterday, what purported to be a letter
from Rev. H. M. Turner, copied from the Anti-
Slavery Standard. I cannot permit myself to
believe that the letter, os it appears in your
columns, conveys the intention of the writer
my opinion is that it has been colored (not by
yon) for effect, as many of your readers con
readily understand. Bat then it makes somo
statements, which, to say the least, are a little
hasty. First, concerning the burning of tho
church—it is certainly not the opinion of one
intelligent member of onr church, that the
white people of this city had anything to do
with firing it Secondly, tho statement that the
whites hod given nothing to aid ns in building
onr now church, however true it might havo
been at the time of writing, is certainly con
trary to fact now, for white people have contri
buted directly in cash “the handsome Bum” of
over ono hundred dollars—is subscription con-
siderably more, and indirectly to sappers, fes
tivals, etc., for the benefit of tho chnrch quite
an amount; and upon the whole hare mani
fested a liberal and sympathetic sentiment to
ward us, and I have no donbt but we may drift
to a much better understanding and a much
better fooling as time draws the cover of tho
past over our difficulties.
Theophilus G. Steward.
judicial to these representatives, quietly bnt
fairly recognized the existence and the legiti
macy of antagonism of political opinion, and
with a firmness and candor above that of the
mere partizan; and frankly avowed his pur
pose to be President of the Union and all parts
of it under a just apprehension of such political
rights, and not the mere representative of par
tizan interest. This much we, in common with
all onr fellow-citizens, are glad to learn, how
ever we may differ from or criticise politically
the President and his associates. Whether or
not the President will be able to carry out this
high purpose, we gravely donbt. But a few
months of patience will enable ns to determine
how far he will fall short. The opening of his
administration so far does not afford much en
couragement. .
The New York Tribune on Congress.
Reviewing the late session of Congress the
Tribune says:
The act by which the session will be longest
membered is ono for whoso prompt passage
we have to thank the sagacious statesmanship
of Gen. Grant. We mean the law that closes
the series of reconstruction measures, and pro
vides for •‘the crowning of the edifice.” No
timelier, wiser enactment has, in these latter
years, marked our progress toward restoration.
We hail it as the end of the policy of hatred and
revenge ; the end of irritating and useless dis
franchisements ; and the means of bringing to
the next session of this Congress a fall repre
sentation once more—for the first time since
1860—of every State in the Union. It has an
other and not less grateful significance. It is
the first movement of the new administration in
matters of ymtf rniaj policy.
Considering that the Tribune was particularly
clamorous for the re-reponstrnction of Georgia
this paragraph is somewhat significant
TheBamesville Fa-Sol-La of the 15th says:
On’ Tuesday night we were visited again by
Old Winter in tho shape of ice. Owing to the
excessive dryness of the soil, we presume but
little damage was done to vegetation. Onr farm
ers are all planting cotton rapidly, and we should
regret to hear of any drawback upon their ef
forts.

Hot Times In Tennessee.
A Knoxville correspondent of tho Cincinnati
Commercial expresses the opinion that the.
franchise law of Tennessee will go overboard
under a decision by the Supreme Court of tho
United States declaring it unconstitutional.
Then, says he:
We will have red-hot times here in Tennes
see, more lively, than comfortable. If such be
the result, the Legislature will probably bo
hastily convened in-extra session, and with a
clear understanding of the melancholy shortness
of time, and the slender tennre by which they
shall hold office, they will enact another law, dif
fering in letter, bnt alike In spirit, by which
they will hope to Btill retain the disfranchised
class in subjection. I do not say that they will
certainly attempt such a bold course in the face
of an adverso decision, bnt then tho only way
we have of judging the future is by the past,
and the Legislature of Tennessee, when meas
ured by that square and compass, will not fall
for below tho mark. The result of such a state
of affairs will be a tolerably large-sized row, for
every man now disfranchised will see in the de
cision of the Supreme Court that he has a right
to vote, despite the old laws and the new set up
to bar him from the polls.’’ -

The spirit of improvement is rife in onr little
city. Hast year two hundred and sixty build
ings were erected in the city and its suburbs,
and it is probable that quite as many will be built
this year. Wo understand that arrangements
have already been made for laying over five mil
