to Atlanta, on account of what the editor
conceives to be the superior centrality and
accessibility of the former city. We sus
pect the Courier will find it a difficult task
to convince its readers in Cherokee Georgia
that Macon is a more conrenieiU location
than thc Railroad City. On the strength off
the Courier* article thc Journal d- Messenger
reminds the public that Macon has not }-et
given up all hopes of getting thc Capital.
As far as wc have been able to ascertain the
feeling of the people in the country above ;
us, the pre»s is a very fair indication of the
public sentiment, and when tiie vote comes |
to be taken on the subject about the same ,
proportion will he found to exist among the '
people, in favor of Atlanta, as has already
been shown to cxi t among the newspapers.
The friends of Atlanta can tery well afford
to spare one paper from thc press of Choro-:

Bv the arrival of the Africa, a telegraph
ic outline of which news we publish this
morning, we have one week’s later advices
from Europe. The intelligence by this ar
rival is of comparatively little importance,
unless we except the advance of one-eighth
penny on cotton, which will of course
be gratifying to our numerous planting
friends. From the seat of war there is
nothing of especial interest, all parties be
ing apparently engaged in the laudable en
deavor to re-open negotiations on the basis
of “ the four points.”

The lovers of amusement w ill notice, by
the card in our advertising columns, that
tins popular company of musicians will give
thc first of their entertainments in Atlanta
at the Athcmeum to-night. From the enco
miums bestowed upon this talented family
by the press of other cities we judge that
their concei ts are of a highly meritorious
character.

At this time, while thc political affairs of •

European nations. Those who would keep 1
