IN view of the certaiu inoreas of the army by an exten
sion of the Conscription act so as to include men be
tween 85 and 45 years of age. the undersigned has resolved
to raise a volunteer infantry company, conditional upor
the extension of the Conscript act. If this act should not
go into effect, persons joining tins company are thereby re
leased from it. It is not impossible that a bill will pass
Congress immediately enrolling al lmea hable to militajr
duty. Should this bill pass, it would be too late to volun
teer, and all msu between the ages of 35 and 45 yeais o.
age become conscripts. It will, therefore, be a measure o
prudence, on the part of persons liable to conscription, at
once to become conditional members of a volunteei com-
P< The Lieutenants of Nils company will be thorough
—one of them having served as surgeon of the Rome nign
Guards In the 9th Ga. Regiment. No man will be received
into the compauy who Is of known Immoral or low h ao ‘ ts *

' A few weeks since a robbery wa3 committed in
j our city from the person of a gentleman from the
i country. Having obtained some information as
! to the locality of the guilty party, (under the name
j of James Hell) I called upon parties with whom he
j was boarding, to gain further information of the
j persou suspected. They gave me a description of
! him, which, as appears from the letters siuce found
1 upon his corpse, misled me so that I could not ar
rest him. By aid of the parties, known by the ae
j coinpauying letters, he escaped punishment here
| to meet death near a sister city, in pursuing the
j vocation ol a robber. Being a public officer, aud
i having some pride in discharging my duty, satis
’ factorily to the city anil myself, I have concluded
to ptbHeh tUr-se ’titers, fivrnished me by theCoro
s ner of Muscogee county, to show the citizens of
Macon how so many guilty ones escape detection
; ami punishment by the assistance of persons iu
our midst, who, forgetting their obligations to *o
• eiety, misled officers in the discharge of their duty,
| ami thus become involved in the guilt of those
i they would shield from punishment.

j)ear Friend :—-You rannot imagine the joy it $
ga?e me to receive a 1 tier from you. I have j
been greu'tly troubled about you, and in fact, every ;
bodv in the whole hoiue is always speaking about j
jo or little Jasper. Oh you cannot imagine what '
tides there is in town about you. There was a
man came here the night alter you left and asked
us if you had been bonding here. Father told
him that you had boarded here, but had left. He
Ohe stranger,) said that there was a man robbed j
of four hundred dollars and a gold watch, and he 1
seya that yGU were the man that, threatened to
kill tba man if he made any noise. He also says
that the money was divided into four parts, and
that a one hundred dollar bill carue to your part, !
Now. you tnust not thiuk that we believe you did
it but I only tell you what reports are out about
you. There is one of the Georgia Regulars in
■.aii and ha told it about you. He says that he was
In the crowd, and says you gave him thirty dollars
not to tav anything about it. I think, the reason
be told such a lie is because ‘.hey are all mad wirb :
you for whipping one of them. So, my dear i
friend, I do not nor cannot believe you did it, un
less vou yourself was to tell me so. We ail love
you as dearly as we do our own brother, and will
take up for you just us long a* we are able to apeak
one word in your favor. H e all miss you so
much. You must send me & lock of your hair, for
1 fear that we shall never see you again. You
must excuse a short letter, for I am iu a hurry.—
One thing mote and then 1 am done. Rest as
sured that we will not forget you, and we beg re
membrance from you. I remain, as ever, your
true tnend. - w o •
My L'ear Friend:— Aa Mollie is writing, I will
write you a few liues. lam very sorry that you
did not write to me also, for 1 would be very hap
py to receive a letter from such a dear friend as.
you. Let me beg you to not go by any name in
Columbus, but J. Jasper, for they have dispatched
there for you. They earns here and asked us to
describe vou and we told them that you were as
tall as Theodore, and told them that you wore a
Reaver hat away from here. We described you ex
actly wrong so that they will not get you. Oh you
cannot imagine wuat feeliog3 it gave us when we
bid you good bye, perhaps forever. I never can
I forget how you looked when we kissed you ; and
when you went down the step# I thought to my-
I I will never see my true frieud agaiu. But
you must remember that we are all friends to you
I nere. It is true we did but little for you, but we
did all in our power to save you. Fleas* excuse a
short latter this one time and I will do better
when you write to me. J- * * ’ C' ’

Dangers of Vaccination. — T. Durham
Esq., of Henry county, Ga., has lately lost
three of his most valuable negroes by vac
| cination. The virus with which they were
vaccinated was taken from the arm of a
healthy, robust negro child ; and within
twent v -fiour hours after insertion into the
arms of these negroes, they were corpses. —
This virus had already passed through two
human sy'etems, causing in them no more
than the ordinary sickness usually attending
thorough Tnccioatioii.— Chronid* & Stnlind.

to be allwise and unchangeable, and who es
tablished slavery in ihe law us given to Mo
ses, should of late come our, so decidedly
against it. We may suspect the true expla
nation of this ta be—and indeed it is iu en
tire conformity with ihe clerical idea ihaf
all wisdom a»d unchangoableness are theo
logically the eipressions of relative qualities,
aud mean simply that God thinks tnus aud
thus, as he is at present advised.
Not that ho does not progress, and is
neither amenable to reason, nor affected by
the force of public seutimeut. The eta of
Moses was considerably before the day of tin*
Barkers, the Phillipses, the Love joys ami
the Beechers. It was before the days of
William L. Ston«, iu the New York Specta
i tor, and of Charles Hammond, in the Cin
cinnati Gazette, and long before the days of
those greater luminaries, the Tribunes, the
Posts, the Independents, in whose foci the
negro is so exalted and illustrated that even
his maker would hardly recognize his own
handiwork in the glorified being that is pre
sented to his inspection. Had God, iu his
first dispensation, been favored with the as
sistance of the Beecher family, with an oc
ctsioual word of advice from Greely, Brown
son, and Giddings, there is, at least room to
conjecture that, upuu the slavery question,
the Leviticus would have a very different
appearance. ’’
In concluding, the Enquirer thus cauter-
I izes the Abolitionists :
“Aud now we, on behalf of the people,
have the right to inquire : Whore, O ye
priests —ye men who professed to kuow the
whole counsel, and speak the decrees of the
Almighty —where are the victories that, iu
his name, ye promised ? Where is the united
people, the restored confidence, the reecm
; structed Union, the vindicated Constitution;
I where the hope of extending our nationality
; over this vast continent ; where is our pre
sent and our hope of future prosperity;
where, even, that civil liberty which we
once boaated as our peculiar birth right; and
which we once flattered ourselves never
would and never could be taken away ?
“Over all these things you promised, upon
certain conditions, an especial exertion of
| divine guardianship. The conditions
been complied with ; where is the guardian
ship ? We are a deeply humiliated people,
with little prospect exceot for deeper and
tolerable humiliations And youi dar
; ling and peculiar trophies—what are the)
Twenty or thirty thousand negroes, seduced
or driven from their homes, naked, home
less, starving and dying under the paternal
care of yourselves and Government. Does
; the all-seeiDg eye of God look down upon a
scene more redundant in all the elements of
sorrow and repentance v
“And we have the right to say further
that, in makiDg these promise- in the name
of God, you lied. Wnar is more, you knew
at the time that you were lying. You knew
! nothing of Hi* will. It was your own mad
passions and fantatic designs that you pre
sented to the woild us divine revelations.—
At once hypocrites and destructives, yon
have labored to pluuge this country into a
war, and are now laboring to bar every ave
uue to its extrication. Upon you the slaugh
ter of our battle fields and the desolation of
our homes have no influence. \ou are a
-of pity as you are of remorse. Iu
this uuholy enterprise you have prostituted
your reason and your religion. If the wor
of all sins iu this world is blasphemy, you
! are the worst of blasphemers. And if, on
j the last great day of account, you do not call
J upon the rocks *uad mountains to fall upon
Iyou, there will be no particular use for rocks
and mountains in the divine economy.
The War Freiizrat the .forth.
In a speech made in the Yankee House
of Representatives, on the Isth of January,
Mr. Vallandigham made the following re
marks in reference to the war frenzy which
swept over the North iu the spring of 18G2:
“In the and West, the storm raged
with the fury of a hurricane. Never in his
tory was anything equal to it. Men, wo
men and children, native aud foreign born,
Church and iStato, clergy and laymen, were
all swept along with the current. Distinc
tion of age, acx, station, party, perished in
an instant. Thousands bent be lore the
tempest; and here aud there only was one
fouud bold enough, loolhardy enough it may
have been, to bend not, and upon him it fell
as a consuming fire. The spirit of persecu
tion for opinion’s sake, almost extinct in the
Old World, now, by mysterious transmigra
tion appeared incarnate in the New. Social
relations were dissolved ; friendships broken
up, the ties of family aud kindred snapped
asunder. Stripes aud hanging were every
■where threatened, sometimes executed. As
sassination was invoked; slander sharpened
his tooth; falsehood crushed truth to the eai th;
reason ; madpess reigned. Not justice
