On Thursday last a magnificent public Dinner was
given by the citizens of Macon in liouor of tho happy
return of the gallant band of patriotic Volunteers,

in Flsriht.' At 2 o'el iak a projoisiou was for.iud
flom t!.c Central Hotel—the Macon Volunteers
in front, their bullet-pierced standard proudly
floating over them—followed by the Committee of Ar
rangements and citizens generally, escorted by the
Bibb C nvolry,—and proceeded to the appointed
place. Two tier of tables, the entire length of Grif
fin’s extensive warehouse, groaned with the boun
tiful and rich fare provided. A. II. Clmppcll, Esq.
officiated as President of the day—assisted by C. W.
Raines, II. G. Lamar. L. L. Griffin, and T. G. Holt/
Esqra ns V>e Presidents. The tables, long as
they were, were entirely surrounded, almost every
scat being occupied—and no lack of provisions at
liquors found.
The Committee of Arrangements deserve great ere

trust; And tlieeclat with which the thing went off,
reflect; infinite praise upon the attention and liberali-
to of the hosts, Messrs. Williams & Ramey
The Rev. Adam T. Holmes officiated a Chaplain of
the Day, and discharged tha duties in a manner cor
responding to tiie sacredness of his office.
The 4th regular Toast was prefaced by die Presi
dent of the Day in a short and thrilling speech, iu
which he adverted 1 to the sacrifices wade by the Vo
lunteers, in nobly responding to the call of their coun
try in maichiug to lhe ( l<a;tle-£c!d—and the hardships
and privations they had undergone,—where nothing
was to be gained but perils and disappointments.—
After the Toast had been drunk, and the cheering
i vhicli it and the remarks of the President called forth,

and handsome address, ou behalf of his companions

liug desolation of the present Indian Wars! North
ern fanatics and ill-judging philanthropists have sym
pathized so much over the fate of the poor Indian, aud
told the tale of his wrongs with so much pathos and
eloquence, that he at last, stolid as he is, is made to
believe it! And in this belief, and in die confidence
of sympathy mid assistance from his northern friends,
lie has seized the tomahawk, the scalping knife and
the rifle, and is dealing death, ruin and desolation a-
rouud him
We arc among those who have always believed and
said, that the worst enemies of the Indiaa race were
those misjudging friends, who tvere continually harp
ing upon Indian wrongs und Indian rights. They
have brought about a slate of tilings they might have
foreseen—hundreds of their own flesh and blood have
been murdered; and the Indians themselves will be
Hjorg rigorously treated, ill consequence ot their mis
placed sympathies
If Abolitionism i* not suppressed, a more dreadful
scene than that now presented on our Indian frontier,
will at no distant day be enacted throughout the entire
rioulli. Misplaced sympathy for the poor slave, like
that for the poor Indian, will excite in him a feeling of
rcTenge. and it may not be long before the bloody tra
gedy of St Domingo is rcbersed among us. Can the
South then be blamed, for wishing the several States
to put down the Abolitionists within their respective
limits?
From al! we can gather, Abolition societies arc mul
tiplying in tfie State of New York: and their doctrine
^spreading, proportionate to the increased number
nnd wealth and influence of their societies. The Ab
olitionists themselves are countenanced and cherished
by the people of that State, and their incendiary pro
ceedings openly winked at. How ridiculous.' now
iusulting then, appears their second resolution !
Let the SoulliJook to it. She con expect nothing
from the anti-slave Slates—her safety is in her own
ilunce. her own resources.

a pernicious iuflueuce within the limits of other
