Font* forty or fifty years hence we hope there
may be at'loast a hundred .men in the goodly
city of Macon living and in health, who will be
able to say when the Daily Telegraph makes
Ha regular diurnal round, “I took the very first
number of that paper and have been a regular
subscriber ever since." In order to enjoy this
glorious privilege the very first pro requisite
will be A SUBSCRIPTION TO-DAY—tomor-
. row will be too late. Wo have been inactive in
canvasaing for subscribers, from the fact that
we feel perfectly independent on this score.—
\Yo are sure that every intelligent lady and
gentleman in the town will want to see the-pa-
per daily and will do so cither by subscribing
or borrowing. As for the borrowers we do not
want them on the list—hut in respect .to all
others, wo heartily wish they, would send in
their names THIS DAY, and commence with
us the pursuit of knowlcdgo under difficulties.
The first number of the Daily will bo delivered
to subscribers to-morrow morning, wherever in
town tlicy may desire their copies to bo left.—

without tho money for a few days, until we get
regularly in operation. After that time whoev

few days. We append the following official
statement by the authorities of the City, from
the Cltixen of last Saturday. The concluding
paragraph', )! will'be seen, contains a manifest
error, altogether inconsistent with the previoos
allegation that disease does not exist in town.
f It should read, “all cases [at the 1 Pest House]

is no case in town: ••

We beg leave to introduoe William B. Lit-
tlipao^ Esq., to tho Macon puhlic as local
Editor of the Daily Telegraph. He enters up
on his duties to-day, and wc trust the business
community of Macon will afford him every nec
essary aid and facility to he useful to them and
to the public. Ilis department will embrace
more particularly the general local news of the
town—tho preparation of market reports and
statistics—the cotton operations—the arrivals
of persons and freights—the collection of all
business facts which may bo useful to tho pub
lic or of advantage to advertisers—reports of
puhlic meetings, Ae_, Ac. The general manage
ment of the paper wi]l rest as heretofore. We
havo made liberal arrangements for a useful
paper—one that Macon need not be ashamed
of—one which will cost a great deal and require m0Ted *
a corresponding income;
Theatre.
Mr. Mm. M. Fleming’s Dramatic Company—
Miu Joey Gougcnheim—Miss Emmons—
Miss German.
We are glad to announce the arrival "of Mr.
"Fleming, with his Dramatic Corps of Artists,
once more among us. JI 0 offers a list of cele
brities unusually attractive: Miss Joey Gougcn-
heim, one of the most charming comediennes
now on the stage, has been engaged for a short
season, and wc hope every lover of the drama—
every person interested in sustaining a Theatre
—trill attend during her engagement. Miss G.
is endorsed by tho most eminent and impartial
Dramatic Critics, as one of the very best artists
in her role now before the public. It is but
seldom that such a literary feast is presented to
a Macon audience, and wc have no doubt full
houses Will greet this charming actress.
The beautiful Miss Emmons, who made such
a favorable impression during her Into visit, is
again here. Jn her line of characters she is as
promising ns any young actress on the hoards,
and her many admirers will greet her return
with marked pleasure.
Miss Effie German, from Laura Keene’s The
atre, is now attached to Mr. Fleming’s Company,
and comes highly recommended os an accom
plished woman and excellent artiste. *
Beside, we have Mrs. Gratton, who always
performs well her part—the genial Fuller, a
thoroughbred actor and always welcome—Mr.
Wright and Mr. Donaldson, both young men,
hut excellent performers. In fact, tho whole
Company is made up of good'materiel, and Mr.
Fleming deserves tho special recognition of the
Small Pox in Ainerlcus.
Wc arc (not) sdrry to hear that this “loath
some disease" Is just as “prevalent ” in Amcri-
cus, as it is in Macon—that is to say, there arc
no cases of it there,' and there arc none here.—
An intelligent gentluman from Savannah
brought a report'ho heard on the line ot rail
road, that seventy cases had actually occuned
in Americus, and another intelligent friend' of
ours was told in Montgomery last Monday (23d)
that there bad bcen'4oO deaths in Macon from
small pox, all .which illustrates theway in which
rumors fly about'the country, _ and shows the
necessity of early authentic statements of ac
tual fact There is no'small pox in Americus
and there is none in Macon, and, therefore, we
ar$ amrfzed at the extraordinary acts of “era
bargo and non intercourse’’ taken by the au
thorities of our sister city.' 'We find them set
forth in the Council proceedings of that city of
the‘24th, published in the Sumter Republican
oflastFriday:— '
Whereas, tfie Board of Health of the City of
Americas have advised the Mayor and City CodociI
■hat they have good reason to believe that the
SMALL POX now exists in the City of Macon, in
this State, and have recommended to the Council to
pass resolutions for the prevention of the introdue
lion of this loathsome disease iu this city. Be it
therefore
JlcsoIrcJ, 1st. It shall be the duty of the Marshals
to prevent any persons routing from-the city of
Maeen front stopping in this city,—unless they cad
give othllea.tb Committee, hereinafter appointed,
satisfactory evidence that a sufficient time lias elaps
ed since their departure from said eity of Macon,
to relieve them from probable danger of contagion
of Small Pox.
CURE*
Some say so—a good many Northern men of
sagacity maintain that what is called the “hu-
manitarianism” of.the North is already super
inducing such tremendous social evils as either
to kill society or euro it of that false philosophy
and fanaticism. Dr. Lord, in the conclusion of
his recent really great letter to a pupil in Vir
ginia, suggests the entire possibility of a virtual
re-csts.blishment of slavery in the North; aris
ing out of an impossibility to obtain menial la
bor there, except upon compulsion. Wc point,
also, as indicative of the possible reactionary
effect of abolitionism, to two paragraphs in this
paper—one headed “The Coming Horde,” from

Mr. HARDEMAN. My notice haa been called
this motning to a letter of mine, which was written;
the second week of the session, and which recent
events hare convinced me, places some members
in s false position before the llonse. That letter
was not writtea for publication ; but it hav ing been

a froe negro insurrection in Canada West The
Cincinnati man concedes the main point of the
argument, when he sees a total demoralization
of society as the result of the irmiption of the
‘•(joining horde" of free blacks, driven out of the
slaveholding States. He admits life Unfitness of
the negro for the position of a citizen, and con
cedes that he cannot or will not, -by his own
volition, become a valuable member of society.
He calls loudly for Legislative protection against
the curse of free negro Immigration,. and
claims that the want of it “discloses the weak
cst point in our Union, and exhibits dangers to
the Confederacy hitherto unforeseen.", Tho
Ohio man, in his narrow and selfish view of
things, probably'laiis to see that the grand re
sult sought to be accomplished on the Sputh by
the whole train of free soil and abolition schemes
and devices is a great deal worse than this. |
is to convert.a now useful, happy and produc
tive class'of laborers,' at the expense of our pe
cuniary ruin, into just such a social curse ashe
concedes can ruin Ohio if introduced by immi
gration. He says that the pouring into Ohio
of hundreds and thousands oif free blacks is
such an evil she cannot submit to it, and it will
endanger the confederacy. But ho will also
probably maintain that the converting" of five’
million slaves of the South, at the cost of her
pecuniary rnin, intojust such a vagabond pop
ulation, will not endanger tho Union at aH—is
in fact the strongest “point in our Union;” at all
events, if he does not say so, a majority of the
Ohio Philosophers and politicians do.
We of the South cheerfully concede 'he is
right in his apprehension of the* effect of free
uegro immigration. We say the negro is unfit
to be a citizen—will opt in that - capacity be
happy himself or conduce to the' happiness of
others, and wc challenge all history and the
whole surface of the globe to produce one prac
tical refutation of this assertion. So far from
it, every new fact demonstrates its truth, and
in the second article alluded to—the negyo in
surrection in Canada—is one more added to the
catalogue. Cuffee is m' ater there, and is lite
rally going it with a looseness. If Canada does
not protect herself against free negro immigra
tion, as the Cincinnati man insist Ohio should do,
she will have to give up the province to the ne
groes and leave. Whether more sense in res
pect to African slavery will gradually work its
way into the skulls of the Northern Abolition
ists or not—one result is. certain—self protec
tion will ultimately compel thenrto stop dpera-

SCUOOL DllTCRBASCU AT SAXDWICH—THE BEAU
TIES or PRACTICAL ABOLITIONISM.
The negro diatnrbanoea which were alluded to in
oar issue of yesterday, were not overrated in impor-
eoataiaa a synopsis of my explanation does not cir
culate thus far from home, and as I noticed this
morning that the first letter was published in a New
York paper, I deem it my' duty to put myself ahd
my friends right upon the record.
That letter was written, as 1 said, the second week
of the session, and 1 am convinced, from revelations
that have been since made, that 1 then labored un
der some erroneous impressions. I stated in it thit
there were seuerul of the anti- Lecomptoa members
of the House who Would vote for Sherman. Since,
then that declaration haa been verified; hat 1 am"
glad to alate that, as regards others of that party, I
was doing them injustice, as their course, siuce has
proved; and I risn to disclaim any intention of that
sort. They have pat themselves right on the re
cord, with the exception of one or two; apd I tenet
that when the time Cornea that their votes will be
needed, they .too will be found “right side up with
care.’’
• Again: I stated that I believed that there wns'a'
portion of ihe'Democratic party who wonld not nn-
der any. circumstances lend thc-ir'iutluence to the
-election of an American, as they were so' carried a-
waywitb party feeling that they would vote for
uone bnt one of their own • party. I dm happy to-
state that in that 1 was in error, fur the course of a
great portion .of tho .Democratic party South
convinced me that they have been willing, and
Mill willing, it the exigency should arise, to unite on
'an American ns Speaker of the House.
Again: 1 stated in the letter the result which-1
thought would follow the introduction of the resolu
tion of the gentleman from Missouri, [Mr. Clark,)
and while 1 then thought; and how think, the' intro*
daction of that resolution impolitic and unwise, I
wonld not impugn the motives of the gentleman
who- introduced it, for his conduct on this floor has
satisfied me that he was sincere in his coarse.
I have thought that it was due to myself and d.ne
to my frienda-on this floor, that 1 should make this
explanation. Inregartl to the relation .existing be
tween my anti-Lecomptou friends and the "Republi
can party, 1 will state that recent events and n close
observance ot thtir conduct have convinced me
■hat 1 Was in error as to the final' Course of one or
two of them. Bo much I have Thought it my duty to
say to this House; because,- as l stated, the letter
which explained my dTutletter, may never reach my
friends' constituents. « •
Mr. CHAlliE.ot North Carolina. That letter has
been copied in papers in my district, with • view,
doubtless, ofprejudicing gentlemen who act witli
me on this side oftho House.. Among other thlogs
it contains this sentence s'
“I hare heard the speakers.denounce Sherman as
unfit to live and as nulitto die, and have seen them,
at the conclusion of their remarks, arm Sherman
and walk off in social glee! So much for their sin
oerity and honest indignation.'’''
Mr. HARDKM AX. That is what I alluded to just
now. As I stated, the letter was not written for pub
lication; and therefore was nut worded with that
cate with which it would- otherwise have been. 1
meant to say that whilo- speakers denounced the
Republican party, I had noticed tiiat with a great
majority of them that.did not affect their social
lations. 'i .
Mr. CRAIG K. of North Carolina. I suppose-the
gentleman did not mean "that he had seen gentle
men on this aide of the llonse, after denouncing the
Republican candidate, walking out of the 41*11 with
him.
Mr. HARDEMAN*. I have seen what I stated;

from all responsibility for tho public disorder on the
Slavery controversy, he charges that by the action of the
“Republicans,” all respect to constitutional compacts
has been subverted, and we are brought face to lace with
revolution and civil war. Ho charged the Oclpcritcs
with being enemies to their country, and ready to tram

had nullified the Fugitive Slave law, and he cited against
them tho declaration of Webster, that a refusal by the
States to carry oat this law, was a breach of the contract
and released all parties to it. The rendition of fugitives
from labor had been the common law of all civilized na
tions from the days of ancient Greece; and' when the
I carious refused to return certain escaped slaves, Pericles
aroused his countrymen to arms, and a war ensued which
devastated Greece for twenty-one years. He turned, with
withering effect, on Foster, of Connecticut, who asked
for an unconstitutional act of that State against the law

Toombs Invoked all honest and patriotic men everywhere

not, they werejncompntibhj with the Union. The Sontb

• A Speaker almost Elected!
Despatches Southward from Washington, on
Friday afternoon, announced, positively, the
election of Hon. William. N. II. Smith, of North
Carolina, as Speaker of the House, but were soon
followed by others correcting the mistake. On
Friday.worning It was believed that Smith could
be.elccted-by the aid of the whole Democratic
vote, whereupon the Americans'nominated liirn^
and. fill the Southern Democrats took him up.
A vote was taken, and Stood, after - correction,
Smith 112, Sherman IOC, Corwin 4—X1D neces
sity to a choice. Before the vote was announc
ed, it was believed, confidently, (hat Smith was
elected; but meanwhile, Sherman came in with
a vote for Corwin, and Nixon, of New Jersey,
changed his vote from Smith to Pennington.—
thus defeating a choice. -The House, then ad
journed to Monday, and thoJUack Republicans
appointed" a caucus, ad interim, in which, it is
said, they wilhprobably drop Sherman and iiom-'
inate either Pennington or, Corwin. - It is prob
able they wili carry '.their man, but he will n9t
be Sherman.'
Mr. Smith is.an Old Line -Whig, and never
belonged to a Know-Nothing Lodge. He advo
cated the Slavery code for the Territories. He
is from Hertford county, N. C.; is a lawyer by
profession, and was for many years Sojicitor in

A murder ot a most horriblo character was committed
uppn the body of a poer, bnt respectable woman, on last
Sunday night. The facts; as elicited upon the Coroner's
inquest, were as follows:—On Sunday night, the woman,
whose name Is Dunn, whilst in an npper story room of
her house, attending to the retirement of her children to
bod, hoard a noise in the street in front of her door, and
raised the window tff ascertain what It was, aud perceiv
ing a couple of men on the side walk spoke tp them, aud
is supposed to have ordered them away. Instantly, a
pistol was fired at her—the ball taking effect iu her ueck,
severing the jngnlar vein, and passing into the centre of
the bruin: Sa deadly was the wound, that she instantly
sank, wity her body resting upon the sQl of the window,
and died w ithout a struggle.
An act of ruffianism was perpetrated on Saturday night
last, which will tend no little to facilitate the passage of
the J>111 now before the Legislature to restrain rowdyism
in ihis city. Two prominent members of the Legisla
ture being here upon official business, and-stopping at
{ho ‘iFountaih Inn," had occasion to go to an apothecary
store' at a late hour ™ Saturday night, to get a prescrip
tion for a fellow-member of that body, who had been
taken suddenly ill at the Hotel. While waiting to be
admitted into the drag store, a party of rowdies came
aloag and accosting them' in a rough mannor, demanded
If they wanted a doctor, Ac. t The gentlemen paid no
attention to their insolence, and they pasted to the op
posite side of the afreet: one of the partyagaln accosted
them, and with a remark that, "if they wished a doctor—
there was one," fired three successive shots pf a revolver
immediately at them. The distance could not have been
oyer twenty steps, yet fortunately they escaped injury—
the balls struck the wall, and were fonnd the next morn
ing flattened from Its contact. The rowdies then moved ont -
off, withimt any-Interference' from the police. Fortu-
iJhtcly both these gentlemen happened to be members of
the Committee, of the-House, to whom the new Police
Bill was referred-rand one of'them is, I believe, a mem
ber of tlp^Know-Nothing party—with such ocular proofs
of the present state of affairs, it is most likely that these
gentlepien will harry np the passage of the Bill.

tain ourselves against this opposition that is nianlfcst-
tog itself among onr people, aud which threatens to ma
terially damage our foture prospects."
