Meeting of Railroad Presidents. —Tbe Presidents and Superintendents of several railroads in friendly connec- tion with through lines by way of Au- usta, of mail routes from New York to New Orleans, were iu convention yesterday. The object of the meeting of these chiefs, we learn, is to arrange schedules on two daily lines, north ward and southward from this point. The Boards represented are the Rich mond & Petersburg, Roanoke, Wil mington & Weldon, Charlotte, Wil mington & .Manchester, South Caro lina, Atlanta & West Point Roads. Among those present, we notice Messrs. Magrath, Fremont, Pollard and Johnston, and Crane. Augusta Chron. 4' Sctn'l. have to remain in Alacon from S 15 a. in., until 8 4ft p m—all day. If we detfira to go to Batler, Talbot, Co- lumbu- or beyond, we have to remain in Macon until 2 I - J a. in.—all day nad part of tbe night, and if we di—ire to go over the Southwestern Road to America-* ,,r below, we have to remain until about S o’cjpck the next morning. Returning from Columbus, we have to remain from S 10 p. in. to 4 15 p. in. next day, and from Atnericus, Ac., froin4 JO p. in. to4 15 next day. 'i n go a trip and return of 100 miles from Mijledgc ville aud lieyond Macon On the South-western and Muscogee Roads, one is detained in Macon two days. and hi- hotel bill is $7 at Mar,.:, alone. Now i.- not this shameful ? The President ol the Central Railroad inav practice for u week and lie canuottix the sched ule more oppressive to the travelling public going be yond Macon than this one. It couueeta with no iridti whatever, except the morning dowu train to Si.van nab. As passengers are dciuhied in Mnevn, so an tin' mail* detained by this arrangement Thru vital IS the best scheduled I think the S' lied- nle in use two or three months ago the best we have had iu several years. It was to leave Mi Hedge ville at 4 45 p in., and return at 9 o'clock p m. This con nected closely or as neurly as possible with all the Roads leading out of Macon—but lately the Ceutral night down train has been detained in Alacon two hours later. Then why not again adopt this old sched ule, with the exception that the cars reach Mlffedge- villo at II o’clock at night instead of 9 o'clock. But few persons get their mails at night. Realty Mr. Wadley ought to take sonic compassion on ns and give us a belter schedule than the pieseut one A Citizen’ and Traveler. NOTICK.

They say trade is dull, wages low and pro visions high, aud that persons with limited means, who are able to raise the money to get out there, find them selves unable to get back. They deny also that San Francisco is any longer a “new country,” in the sense of need ing fresh immigration.” Railroad Conventions.—The an nual Convention of the stockholders of the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company will be held in this city Tuesday, 12th May, at which time election for President and Directors will take place.

Special Correspondence of the News and Ileral l Lrtlrr From Washington. Washington, April 21, 1SG8. The speech ofMr. Groesbeck, in be- half of the President, is the talk of the town. He hail been a silent observer during the trial, leaving to Messrs. Stanbery and Evarts the conduct of the case, and it was not proposed that he should speak at all. But “’tis an ill wind that blows nobody good,” so the illness that befell Judge Stanberv brought out the great argument of Mr. Groesbeck. His principal force was exerted on the question of the power of the President to remove Mr. Stanton and confer an ad interim ap pointment on General Thomas. lie dealt with it logically and with extraor dinary power and ell'cct, and command ed the earnest attention of the entire Senate. The concluding portion was in a strain of eloquence rarely heard in the Senate chamber. Mr. Groes beck spoke under much disadvantage, his voice partially failing him m the earlier portion of his speech, but lie recovered it after two bourn. It would be claiming too much for this effort to say it has turned the current of public opinion as to the final verdict, but it certainly bus contributed to check its force, which hitherto had set the other way. But be that a3 it may, the irn- peachers are alarmed. Yesterday two of the managers, with others, were visiting the doubtful Senators, with a view of working upon them by per suasion or entreaties. It is believed they met with no satisfactory res ponse.
