The Republican of Thursday puts forth a long editorial agamd State aid to the Macon and Brunswick bin, which strikes us as strange and OliberaL To begin, we are told that Macanese, with propriety. ask of the State-some assistance, if it be admittea that it ware necemazy to her welfare that she should have it, as she •*» •ever, up to this dsy. received s dollar from the public treasury. But we can see no neeemity for ^msrSst; of all tow*. i» the State..none has a more complete and perfect system of Ball- roads than she has. All of which is very kind and complimentary to tiy«>. but the conctssion that she desenes something is cheep, when coupled with the as surance that she need* nothing, unless as the Republican adds, such “necessities are created by whim and caprice !' We hope the town council will go into a vote of thanks to the Re publican for his compliment and his liberality. But since Macon Is rich, increased in goods, having need of nothing, bow is it with the other terminus of the read? Brunswick, too, it seems, is a fortunate place. She was “bom with a to lose their youthfafaees and zhrivel up £ old men ana women before the sharp N< gold spoon in her mouth,” says the Republican, and note in confirmation her rapid progress since the days of old Oglethorpe! A lucky dog, is Brunswick. But the Republican Kars she is on the other extreme to asking nothing and getting it—she is quite too greedy! like the bone leach's daughter, she continually erica: give, give—end Is never sstufied.” Now, was there ever such an unfortunate con dition of things! One end of this road is mod est, deserving and might get help, but don’t need it " The other altogether too saucy, clam orous and greedy to deserve notice. The mer its of one terminus and the demerits of the other work alike fatally to the enterprise. But wherein is Brunswick so greedy ? Why, nc-l thee of\Vi The Chicago Oration to Douglas, dfcc.

Allen announces himself a candi date for the office of solicitor General of the Cir cuit Tire General State Aid Bill. After a discussion in the House running through, a good part of Friday and Saturday last the general State Aid bill was killed bya vote of 53 to 83. flfc to penetrate nearly the same region—that in the strife between the “two interests” “both ap plicants" were likely to foil—and that by the skill of Hon. Charles Spalding, both interests were quieted by a compromise, the Republican, nevertheless, proceeds to charge the whole mil- lion obtained to the account of the beggary of Brunswick, and moreover sets down to her ac count also, the 175,000 obtained as damage com pensation in the release of charter, Ac. Sharp computation and sharper imputation is that. After this charge of one million and seventy five thousand dollars to Brunswick, the Repub lican sums up the indictment, thus: I And now, with a pertinacity which 'it is charity to I call immodest, she asks for a million more! Now why say Brunswick, rather than Macon ? Or, why, if both ask, charge to one ? Or sup pose—if we can get a little above the smoke of town chimnies, and learn to lock upon railways as meant for something more than to build up the termini,—as intended primarily to afford the vast regions of the interior a cheap outlet for their produce to market—why charge upon Brunswick, a highway imperatively demanded, by a vast scope of fertile country lying yet in great part undeveloped for the want of conve nient access to the seaboard.” The Map of Georgia begs harder for this road than ever Ma con did, or Brunswick can. Look at it! The Macon and Brunswick road ought to pre sent itself to the mind of the intelligent Legis lator as an outlet to an important section of the State, suffering and undeveloped for want of it In this attitude it has merits which will ulti mately achieve success, whatever may be the force of such an appeal as this against it— Whether it will help Brunswick or hurt Savan nah—whether Brunswick begs too much, Macon needs the road or not, it strikes us are not the considerations which should control legislative action. The question should be—is the road essentia] to the proper development of the State? Nor, while we cheerfully admit that a Legislature should be careful of private rights- shonld avoid, as for as possible, competing roads, is it right that an immense region of Georgia should be deprived of Railroads, and denied rea sonable aid in securing them, for fear of inci dental competition. That would be absurd and unjust A Railroad company is entitled to just what the provisions of its charter grant, and it is absurd to say that Twiggs, Laurens, Pulaski, Montgomery, Appling, Coffee and the other counties must have no railway access to the sea, because it might impair the freighting business of the Central Road. We wish all success to that road—think it in no kind of danger of seri ous injury, and recognize to the full extent its claims upon the public. Wesee in it no “ bloody wheeled juggernaut” or monopolist, and do not aroreciate the necessity of the Republican’s de fence of it against any such epithets. We have not a thought that either it or Savannah would be seriously injured by a road through this un occupied scope of country, the latent resources of which would be amply sufficient to sustain it The Macon and Brunswick road would lit erally create its own business and need prey oo nobody. The whole appeal of the Republican seems to us to be predicated on considerations entirely unworthy of the subject, and pressed' in a way entirely indefensible. We are not dis posed to blame Savannah for securing all the aid she can to her own prosperity, but she should not play “ dog in the manger.” Tribune of Nov. 19th, and in the same issue an article may be found of a most libellous charac ter upon the people of the South and the purify of its Judiciary. “One of the most noticeable traits of Southern manners and morals at the present time is the fe rocious spirit of plunder with which the free adored population is pursued “The Judiciary of the South seems determin ed not to be left behind in this race of robbery and plunder.” “The most pitiful and pettifogging legal quib bles, the boldest and most impudent disregard Small Bills and Newspapers. The Constitutionalist of Saturday declares in italics that whosoever advise and sustain the policy of prohibiting small notes “are directly inimical to every newspaper establishment in Georgiaand calls for an “indignant frown” on the whole proposition. As we have seen no movement looking to this prohibition, except the judicious recommendation of the Governor, it is hardly worth while to confront the bull of the Constitutionalist We don’t believe news paper publishers would lone n dollar by the change, and in Maryland where it has been wel] tried, not a solitary evil consequence apprehen ded by the Constitutionalist has been experi enced, to the best of our knowledge and belief We don’t believe there are ten men in the city of Baltimore, out of the Banks, who would con sent to go back again to small bills. of every principle of law and justice are resorted to by Southern Judges to deprive degrees of their liberty or to plunder them of their proper ty.” The above “elegant extracts” are foir samples of the spirit and language of the whole article. It is not our purpose to enter into a defence of the South and its institutions, for they need none; but we do propose to call the attention of our readers to the condition of the people of the ‘Free North’ as portrayed and pictured so graph ically in the extract from the Tribune at the head of this article. A thoughtless youth forg ed the names of a committee to a card givingin- formation that there would be on Thursday, Thanksgiving day, a distribution of bread and meat to the poor of New York city, at Union Square, between the hours of 10 smd 11 A. M. What a horrid state of things is presented to the view of the public in this description of the miseries and sufferings of the half fed and half frozen poor of New York! We pity the starving widows and children, and have no doubt if they were and could be scattered about on our plantations,- the negroes would cheerfully divide with them opt of the abundance of their food and clothing. Yet the philanthropists and negrophilists of the North are ever and anox cry ing out against slavery and its horrors. Minis ters in the pulpit take up collections for the fu gitive slave. Sabbath after Sabbath, Beecher and Cbeever and Bacon and their confederates stir up the sympathies and arouse^ the fenat- of their hearers by their eloquent and high ly wrought appeals in fevor of what they call the wrongs of the black man; and to hear these pious gentlemen, one would suppose that they lived in a sortof earthly Paradise—Shat the Free North was the true Arcadia—that all about and around them were happy and prosperous. Would it not be better for the clergy of the North, who are so tender and soft in regard to the condition of our slaves, to turn their atten tion to the alleviation of the ghastly honors which meet them at every turn in their own section ?—would it not be better for Beecher to beg for the famishing thousands who congre gate within the sound of his voice, than to call for help for those who have never'asked and do not need his charity ? Would it not be better for Greeley and Weed and Raymond to spend their talents and their tightening tile load of want and mis ery which prevails in all the great cities of the North—the rags, the famine, the cold, the blood, the crime, which is rampant and constant— which is ever present and always in full view, than to expend so much.and so needless a quan tify of both on the well fed, well dad, healthy, and happy slaves of the South ? We say to the Press and Pulpit and public of the North—Heal up your own wounds— knock off the chains of want and poverty from the gaunt and haggard thousands who crowd your splendid thoroughfares—who fill the low, dismal dens—who hang about your wharfs— in feet, the abject slaves of cruel masters—the slaves of a tyrant, whose chains, while they chafe the body—pollute and destroy the souL Begin your charity at home—the Greeks are not only at your door, but if you do not soon heed their wants and hearken to their clamors for bread, and meat, and clothes, and fuel—they wifi have it, and in the getting up, the appalling horrors ofa slave insurrection will be but child’s play to the Woody retribution which shall over take you and yours. Let us of the South alone. We are in no need of your intervening, inter meddling professions of sympathy. When any city, or town, or village—when any State of ours shall present the picture, which your Thanks giving day has presented to you, thenjperhaps we’may ask you for aid. That day wifi never It arose from no disposition to condemn the ad ministration, or to approve or excuse the course of Douglas in his needless and disastrous war upon it in the Kansas controversy It had its origin in no thought or purpose of favoring what are said to be Mr. Douglas ultimate polit ical pretensions—of pushing him forward as a candidate for the Presidency! in which attitude his worst enemies, political and personal—from the New York Herald down to the smallest vil lage press—delight to hold him up, and to rep resent as the inevitable sequence of a barely successful struggle to retain his h<dd on the con fidence and affection of the democrats of his own State! We say it had its origin in none of these feelings. On the contrary, the wannest sympathisers with Douglas in the South, are among the best friends of the administration and if there be any exceptions to the truth this remark we believe they are few and far be tween. They recognise the just and strong claims of Mr. Buchanan upon the respect and gratitude of the South, and have as little thought or purpose of placing themselves in an attitude of hostility to his administration, as the head and front of the democratic anti-Douglas war, even the Washington Union itself The Southern sympathy for Douglas grew in part out of a recollection of his long, faithful and manly services in the cause of Democracy and a constitutional government—of admira tion of his talents—of a strong indisposition to sever all political fellowship, to pronounce final excommunication, so long as a hope of something better remained—and, more than all else it grew out of the bold contrast between the political attitudes of the two contestants for the Illinois Senatorship, and the abhorred ultra freesoilism of Lincoln. In such a fight it was hard for an unsectional man to be neutral—and to sum up the matter in a word, we declare our conviction that almost the sum total of South ern sympathy for Mr. Douglas was simply choice of evils, in which the desperate free soil radicalism of Lincoln could leave little or jio hesitation in the intelligent and patriotic mind. What, then, are the plain inferences from this state of facts ? How should Douglas comport himself? Will he take counsel of his bitter en emics, and fenev a narrow escape from political ruin a nomination for the Presidency? We imagine he has too much sense for that—we think he will cany out the general tone of this speech—bury past differences in oblivion and lend a hearty and cordial support to the admin- istration. If not, then he will only add one more tothe eminent cases of folly in public men, who sometimes seem disposed to reverse all the rules of action which command success in oth er departments of life, and never to learn the policy of making friends and healing feuds— never to see that though a man may not be ab solutely extinguished and put under the sod by his adversaries, a very few of them can keep him down to the earth and overbalast his polit ical buoyancy. It takes a very little of this kind of lead on the wings of a politician to keep him under the clouds. We trust, then, that Senator Douglas will il lustrate his sagacity by concilaition, and while boasting of the “toleration of differences of opin ion among Democrats in Illinois” remember it is to the same spirit he ones the fact of South ern sympathy with him, and any opportunity he may have to recover his ancient strength in this section. His Southern well wishers were willing to “tolerate a difference of opinion that was alL They did not, in the mere feet of dedining to oppose—or of advocating his re- election, recognize him as the exponent of their opinions. llauMimu, Nov. 29, 1858.

Waldau and Hass- locher—the first a splendid Violinist, and the second too well known to the Musical profession of the country for his varied accomplishments to need any introduction from ns. We confess, therefore to no little surprise to find in the walks of private life, so high a degree of musical tal ent and cultivation as was displayed at this concert These difficult choruses were rendered in perfect time and harmony, and with great spirit and expression. Following the suggestion of the programme we hardly feel at liberty to individualize, in speaking of the performance, but shall we trespass on good maimers in saying that the solos and duetts de veloped a degree of vocal talent for which we wholly unprepared? The feir President of the dub; daughter of the hostess, is literally a child of song—a born embodiment of melody, and per force of natural talents and endowments, with the inadequate training her youth and op portunities have yet admitted, we venture to say would carry captive any audience in the coun- the gay and promiscuous crowd—the ever dang- ing feces visiting this place and my curiosity, to know them—and that rascally thief procras tination, have stolen away my good intentions, and you have beat deprived of mydottings and speculations, up to date. But, as it is nevertoo late - to'do gooff here goes for all T can think of for the next ten or fifteen minutes. The first thing the reader will look to see, is to learn what the Legislature has done. If this be so, I will soon settle the matter by saying that it has not done much as yet Bills have been introduced—Committees have had many of them in hand, and many will in a few days come up for action—and after Wednesday no new matter will be receh-cd in either House, un less by a vote of two-thirds. Thus far, there has been but one important question positively settled—and that is the State Aid question. This received its death blow in the House on Saturday. Week before last, the Brunswick State Aid Bail Rood bill, passed by a majority of four votes, butas itwas reconsidered on the next day by a majority of eleven votes, it was generally conceded thit that bill would not pass. A bill was then introduced for a general system of State Aid, and was made very stringent, and included Gov. Brown’s view of general partnership liability to the State— and it came upon its passage on Saturday—but it fared worse than the Brunswick bill, being de feated by a majority of 30 votes—the yeas being 53, to nays 83.

Cook, the Representative from Early county, in introducing a bill to define and point out the location of the Main Trunk Road. The Argus says, “ Wc hope the Representatives of the people from other sections will see to it there will not probably be any Act for the bene fit of Colleges and Schools, or education gener ally, I think the Legislature will do about the best thing that can be done, and that is to au thorize the Governor to reduce the public debt next year, at hast $200,000. I am not sure but that this ought to be done and kept up from year to rear until all the Public Debt is paid, that they do not permit themselves to be used as' in preference to everything else.

To remove every doubt as to his success, we can inform you that he carried with him, good notes payable 1st of January, 1860, sufficient to pay for the work.

Cone, of Bulloch, and Judge AYhitaker, of Fulton. On Thursday, when it was first intimated that the Hon. John E. AYard would resign, it was thought the Hon. Peyton H. Colquitt, would be elected. He had presided frequently during the session, when the President left the Chair, and had exhibited such a fine knowledge of par liamentary law and the rules of the Senate, and had made so good a presiding officer—and be-' sides, being very popular with all—that it was supposed he would be elected without any con test But as he was quite a young man—only a little over 26—and as the Constitution makes the President of the Senate, Governor, in case of the death of the Governor—and as the Constitu tion says the Goveenor should be 30 years of age, doubts arose as to the propriety of electing Mr. Colquitt President of the Senate, under such circumstances. Such being the state of the case, and as it was evident that other older Senators would not de- dine the honor if conferred upon them, Capt Colquitt'immediately authorized his friends to withdraw his name from the consideration of the Senate, and on Saturday, some friend having again proposed it in the Senate, he arose and in a few handsome and appropriate remarks, again refused to permit his name being used.

Mr. Landrum, Pastor, officiated. As is customary with him, he gave his people an exceedingly appropriate discourse—one in which the presence of thought and method indicated careful prep aration. He took for the foundation of his dis course the 145th Psalm. In giving a short and interesting exposition of this Psalm, he gave the general reasons why, on scriptural grounds, we should give thankz, and exhibited clearly, that, in the order of things, it was man’s plain duty to enter upon this pleasant exercise. He then gave as special reasons why the cit izens of Macon, the people of Georgia, and of the United States should give thanks. He said. 1. That during the past year we had enjoyed national peace, with all its attendant blessings, drawing a beautiful contrast between the pres ent and revolutionary times: That, in a remarkable degree, the city had ers ’ enjoyed good health. AYithin his recollection, so few deaths had occured in no single year, in Macon; and with the exception of some of the seaboard cities, he represented the whole State and country as having enjoyed fine health: 3. That fruitful seasons and commercial pros perity had been enjoyed by the whole country. In contrasting the present state of the Commer cial world with what it was one short year ago, he excited wonder; and urged upon his audi ence, the duty of great liberality, therefor, in the cause of Christ: 4. That all should rejoice on account of the wonderful Revivals, with which the country had been favored. Observing that nothing like it had occurred for one hundred yams, that a half million of converts were said to be its fruits, he showed that it was a cause of thanksgiving to every heart Before dosing, he reminded his people that ration—of obtaining the trade and t Southern Hemisphere through our i alike important to them and to us. l/\ the door be freely opened 6u- aad wii. fullest invitation be given.

In the'Episcopal Church, where the exercises were conducted by the Rev. Mr. Rees, the usual morning prayer was used, with special anthems of praise and thanksgiving. The beautiful hymn, “O, all ye works of the Lord, bless ye the Lord, praise him and magnify him forerer,” seemed to carry out most fully the injunction of the Gov ernor in his Proclamation, where he exhorts in the words of David, “Let the people praise thee, O God; then shall the earth yiel l her increase, and God, even our own God, shall bless us.” The Serxox, from the text, “Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord,” appealed to the best feeling of the heart, and urged upon aff not only gratitude for tempo ral mercies, but that these should lead us to the higher duty of love and praise. An Angel’s thought, he said, would be needed to scan aright our daily dependence oifialmighty rare and wis dom—wisdom that gives alike to the rich and poor the ripened grain and the cooling showers, the blessing of health and the joy of peace. He urged upon his audience stron ger faith, that even the simple petition of “give us this day our daily bread” might as cend to the Throne on high, from true and devout heart —ever wrestling for the promised blessing.
