We know the people of Ma¬ con will second tho motion, for it would be no trifling advantage to Macon, to have thirty or more New York quills timed looso on hi r. Or we might manage, to meet them in Atlanta. We see that the Conxtitntion has wisely sug¬ gested that tho city invito them there. Wo meet on Wednesday, and wo could get tlnougb by Friday or 8-iturduy, and wo would suggest that wo arrange, if we can to meet them there on Fatmd^y. Wbut you fcothren' if the Georgia Press l Wc would like to meet these New Yorkers arid become acquainted with them. Vaurancy, Last week warrants were issued for the arrest of some persons of color for vagrancy, but wc believe out of three only ono was convicted, ami hois en¬ joying thoswt'(a)et* of Grigg’s brigade. This is most certainly a right move, wo have too many among us who like to live but don't want to wot k. How mauy vagabond negroes, lounge around town and livo off’ ol what lhoy can pick up, and how many prowl around tho coun¬ try and live oil'of others of their own tolor’s honest labor. It should bo ■topped. There is law to stop it and it should to enforced without regard, too, to color. In every county and town it should bo done ; and right here we would say to tho Grangers, tight litre is the p'aeo for you to begin tho reform of labor of tho country. In no better way could you begin it. Stop tho va¬ grants ; get out a warrant for every man or woman who does not wsrk, nnd make them work by law if th y won’t by persuasion. You ore the tho proper ones to inaugurals this. You arc the most interested, and ifyour older means good, let it do good.

We rvc only sketched i over, but fiom hat wo shiv, wo unhesitatingly pro it an able effort ; one wmthy, would ilolnnorto the boat men of our country. Well, it is just as corn plete us could buvo been put up, on the subject ; it could not be improved, While it displays argument, lengthy, able, deep and ponderous, it it beau:i fully t>.u«-bed over wi h, nod exactly in place, an amount of wit and humor that relieves the tedium tf its 'length, making it altogether the finest thing the U. S. Senate has produced for years. Georgia should llel ‘of her Senators. While our gallant Gor don was carving for hiomlf a name high on the wails of fa-uo, the miutl of Norwood, though long silent, was not iiJJe, and when this ponderous effort of Jie combined Radical force arrayed itself to force social equality on the South, form Norwood burst forth, as it were, a volcanic eruption, which scorch¬ ed the dirty Duller and his followers, anil caused them to smell .'he stench of their own corruption, and ’of the futteu uncivilized measures they were trying to force upon the people. We wish every man, white and black, iu tho United States, could read it ; and especially the blacks, for to them it un folds a ray of light which would show them what their would-be friend think of them, and who their real fri nils are.

Already bowed down to the dust under the boi - luge ot a political slavery, our ouco proud sister State of Louisiana has been recently called upon to pass under tho yoke of a yet more fearful, if not more ruinous calamity, the full extent of which even your most vivid imagination must fail to realize.

To us, n cruel fortune has denied llie privilege of giving tnotv y, even to an own dear wisti-r ; nor, knowing onr poverty docs she u-k it at out hands.

Du: to be brief. In the first place, without any intention of reflecting in the least ou this able writer and very conscientious citizen, l deem it entire¬ ly irre evant and unnecessary for any one to publicly condemn this act of a Grand Jury, composed, as it was, o‘ sworn, discreet and intelligent men, representing all the different sectious of the county ; and especially when we remember that their actions are final and can neither be retciuded nor re pealed. Then in answer to the objections of Ogeccbcc to the bridge, on account of the small size of the stream, the little amount of travel on this road and freight hauled over it ; I must think that his personal knowledge ol the lacts are very limited, or that bo makes his statements upon tho authority of some one who understands well how to ex oggerato. The ford, which wc admit, is ,h ‘* f ;" the « reck . very fr. qucnt l)CC omce impassable from high water; i " 1,1 t,M;n ,l:M road is 1,10 1 ' u e^d* r ® thi'ise living uortli of Dca v<r ^ 1 :i rn • P aRS *° May fluid Depot 10 J cw, cH s Mills, as well as for those on tbc south side of thestreaui to get to church, procure n physician or do their trading in the livtle village ol Powelton. And nothing now hut the difllrincc in the (might tariff on the Gu. & M. & A.
