we copy the following article of intelligence from
the Macon Messenger
1--WE are informed that the Iulan counc =, Rrol,o
ARROW has closed. The subject of disposinr of the re-
maindcr of their lands in Georgia vas brouoLt before
'eI' out did not result in any positive determination
with regard To its disposal. They protested wiIIipo
ness TO sell II at its value if the agent would examine
or nave II examined, and valuation put unon it
nus me matter appears TO rest for the prcsent-wc
neieVe mat by waiting their own time, il may be OBJ
tamen reaceablt," but we doubt whether il can be
y, "upon reasonable terms "
! The Democratic Press informs US that coucus lad
peen held at Harrisburg by 80 members of the Penn
syVana Legislature al which Gen. jackson was nom
mated for the Presidency. There are 1879 members !,
the Legislature. of whom little more than one. f,ur,i
only could he found willing TO recommend Genera
Jackson: Tins is melancholy prospect for the friends
| OF the military cheftain" Il s'minority caucus,
nominated, and thereby ruined, Mr. Crawford Like
causes are wont TO produce like effects; and hence we
infer that this 'mnoriy caucnsn Harrisburg will be
fatal IN IFS fiendsirP.-[-N: Y. s4mer.

GAe ~Ho'gdn mystery yet occupies and stimuat es
all minds at the west, and by the Argus to-day We
lind, that The committee of the House OF Assembly to
which was referred the Governors message en- this
subject recommend the issuing ola proclamation offer
ing reward for Morgan, dead or alive; and if dead
Tor the conviction of his murderers of $4,000.
In the report brought in by hIr. Granger which VIC
~. u ra,v pyils
evidence OF any Sort is referred TO- to ubsantiae tle
aiiega'''n OF bIorgans murder. We yet hold to The
belief that he is alive. What if he should a9pear in
person, and claim the $4,000 reward
! Tine committee further recommends that & Joint com,
nee OF The two houses, consist of senators and
three members of assembly, be authorised TO sit in e
recess of the legislature, with power send for persons
and papers
The report and its documents were laid on .he table
Massachusetts, EciiOn.-he papers give returns ol
votes for Governor from sixty The socd 9J9I
tor Lincoln, 5ubo tor JARVIS 1909 for other candidates
MIR. Jarvis has certainly unexpected number of votes
considering that ne has formally and explicitly declined
being candidate.
Miss FTo ofthe English Theatre, has cleared TWENTY-FIVE
thousand dollars during the last year. This is acting
some Dramatic genus, when coupled with beau
", is the most profitable stock in the world
Errdt,m.-In The editorial remarks which appeared !,
the last Wing there several errors one
which we deem it proper to correct.
Instead OF NIX Adams received nearly ico millions @
votes more than General Jackson" read sMr Adams re
ceved nearly one million Of more than Genera
