THE GEORGIA TELEGRAPH. IvT^-COINT, GLA.., Tuesday Morning, June 14. A Union Prayer meeting Tlie Frcncli Loan. If there is »ny one thing in current events which the British press and the I.ondon Times, in especial, seems to dislike to the very utter most, it is the eager enthusiasm with which tlie French masses—(not the mcrcliants—not the financiers and the capitalists)—hut the great Will be held daily at 5 o’clock, P.

Macon, JuaeJSth COMMITTEE. The Dcmocrattc Convention Meets to-morrow. We notice from the pro ceedings of the meetings, and list of Dclagitos, that many of our ablest men have been appoint ed and wo learn will be in attendance. We commend to our friends the advice of an old and very distinguished statesman, who said to us once on leaving home to attend a Convention, ** let harmony prevail; let your resolutions be short and pointed, and your speeches brief.— Select your candidate—return home and enter into the contest determined to elect him. Know no such word as tail." Wc went to tlwt Con vention—there were but three short speeches made—but four short, pithy resolutions passed and—wc whipped the fight tion—have subscribed to the Emperors loan of a hundred millions—displaying q readiness to invest far beyond the demands of the govern ment, and thus in the strongest possible manner attesting their good opinion of the Napoleonic "rule and confidence in its stability. The Times chews this bitter cud of fact with an edifying disrelish, and wonders and speculates over it in an unsuitable bewilderment The French arc poor—certainly they are wry poor. Their roads show it—their bouses—their bridges—their inns—their shoeless feet and coarse sandals— their mean hats and dresses—their common fare—their sharp economy on the road—carry ing their dinners instead of buying them on the way. They are poor—they have nosuch roads —no such bridges—no such hedges—no such inns—no such dwellings as wc have in England. Their middling classes do not dress as well, nor cat on hollidayssuch food as wc have every day. Whence then comes all this money? What talisman has extracted i£ from the hoards of humble, hard-earned, penny-saved wealth ?— i What master enthusiasm has drawn out and High times in taGraugc. The Reporter of the 9th is burdened with the proceedings of an opposition meeting which seems to have inspired the worthy editor with a degree of eloquence uncommon in dry times.— He calls ‘To anus, to arms!”—deals entirely in Rnln! Rain! Rnin! At last, after a three weeks’ spell of dry weatli- cni P t * c ‘j Jb e 0,< 1 stockings of their time-bodim military figures, and quotes the poets remorse- lessly—even the hymn book, in which the church is represented as part over Jordan and part in the act of crossing. The Reporter would misapply this figure, but its true use in the book is the correct one applied to the opposi tion. The bulk of the party is already over Jordan, and the rest will be there by the time the votes are counted. We see that CoL J. S. Slaughter was at the meeting, and addressed it in the same florid, poetical, and military style, which infected the entire proceedings and the comments thereon. He was full of marches and banners, Civsars and 1‘ompeys, standards and stars, and wound up with the linking appeal of Marco Bozaris! What has got into LaGrange? Perhaps they hare caught a warlike infection from Europe—perhaps hare taken a hint from tlie sanguinary name of their candidate for Con gress, or perhaps Col. Slaughter himself is re- ponsible for the gory and poetical aspect of the records. Wc hope Gartrell will stand his ground —study military tactics, and carry in his pock et a dictionary of poetical quotations, with the leaf turned down at tcar. It won’t do to be out- bragged in this business liy an opposition ‘‘on Jordan's stream and death's cold flood.” Let er, we have had a glorious min.

But, in fairness, the computation here, too, should be gin May 6th, when the Emperor left Paris which leaves him but twenty-five days to latest date. The critics arc too impatient. Moreover, they are making unfavorable comparisons between tlie cold, unimpossioned temperament of the Emperor and the fiery ardor of the First Consul. They say that during the night preceding the late battle of Montebello, Gen. Baraguay dTIil- liers despatched an Adjutant to tell the Empe ror there would be fighting before morning, but His Imperial Majesty, roused out of sleep by the hurried message, only turned over in his act a Congressional Slave Code for the Temto-1 . ries ; affirming hostility to the extension of Sla-i the line of Rail way across Florida from the w hich occupies a social position T very; condemning the attempts to revive the ; gt.

Give the Emperor the forty days. cing the course of the Administration in refer ence to Kanzas. A Fortune easily made. How time will in some cases work out a for tune, is pleasantly narrated by Nicholas Long- worth, widely known as the great wine grower of Cincinnati, in a recent dinner speech to the Cotton Exports of Savannah. Tlie folloa-ing paragraph appeared originally, we think, in a boiv Orleans paper, and has been extensively copied by the interior prets of this State: “ Extorts from Savannah.—Savannah has this year taken the lead, even of Charleston, in the ex port ofcotton to Liverpool, the number of bales sent forward from the former port being 41,010.” This is a very great mistake, theimmber of bales falling infinitely short of the mark. Up to the present time Savannah has exported-to British ports, the present season, 206 652 bales! which shows a very material gain on the amount allowed her in the paragraph quoted. As the writer was comparing the exports of Savan nah and Charleston, he doubtless designed the fig ures to represent the cxcest of the exports of the formerover the latter, as it is just about the amount stated, the last Charleston report being 162,445 bales, or some forty odd thousand less than the changed this opinion entirely—indeed, have been assured by sagacious men, tliat this Road can be built altogether on the market value of the land grants to which it is entitled.
