A multitude of new business was introduced into the Legislature, on Wednesday, 17th, but little of which was perfected. 'lnf the Senate, a bill was passed repealing so much of the road laws as requires old men and hoys to work the roads The two committees on the judiciary were constituted a joint com mittee to consider the Freedman’s Code House resolution was passed requesting the revocation of the order authorizing the seizure of stock branded “U. S.” and “ C. S.” The Committee on Education were instructed to consider the utility of reviving a system of com mon schools. The House concurred in the Senate resolution bringing on the election of Judges of the Su preme Court on the 23d instant A resolution was passed requesting the withdrawal of U. S. forces from the State Mr. Hardeman intro duced a i ill to incorporate the Macon Canal and Waterworks. Congressional. Washington, Jan. 18. — The House was occu pied all day with a discussion of the Negro Suffrage bill for the District of Columbia, which was passed by a vote of 116 to 50.

Everybody knows Meokath, or ought to. Those who do not, had better “ hunt him up,” as he advjses in his advertisement, and examine his stock of good things before pur chasing elsewhere. “Comparisons are odorous,” Bays honest Dogberry. So we think, and shall make none; but we are doing a simple act of justice when we say that Megrath has as good a stock and will sell as low as anybody else in Macon. If our readers doubt it, let them try for themselves. Auction and Commission Business. —The oard of Messrs. Lougley & Walsh will be found elsewhere. These gentlemen are well known here as among our most reliable business men, and we commend them to our readers as such. The Withdbawal of the Troops. —The Mont gomery Mail says that Gov. Patton returned to the Capitol a day or two since, and from him we learn that the United States soldiers will cer tainly be withdrawn from the State as soon as the militia is properly organized. The Governor has made a requisition for arms and ammuni tion, approved and recommended by General Thomas, and he feels assured that the requisi tion will be prompily filled. Gen. Watson, Ad jutant and Inspector General of the State, is hard at work in the matter of organization, and we trust his efforts will be met with a proper and prompt response from all portions of the State.
