The article appearing in the Herald yes terday, saying that tbe friends of Governor Smith in the city were “very much chagrined at his not replying through the papers to ex- Governor Johnson,” should have beeu credit ed to our Macon Department, os it was tele graphed from that point to the Herald. As was stated in an editorial in tbe Herald some days ago, we thoroughly agree with Governor Smith in the propriety of transferring this discuMtion from the public prints until the correspondence is closed, and the issue set tled. The farther statement that Governor Johnson has made certain assertions to “prominent men of this city,” applies to Ma con and not to Atlauta This correction is due to our sense of consistency. The general feeling in Atlauta is that Governor Smith will tion of friends.
