The opponents of The Compromise. the ultra friends OF
the Nasty Convention, the exclusive champions Of the
Missouri Compromise line sine qua of any Ad-
jusimen and those who insist upon it that State must
step out of the Union because California admitted or
because the Missouri line is not carried out, have
tcipaied with great delight the meeting OF the
venon which was to assemble al Macon the 22d,
Thursday last Every press in Georgia devoted to this
peculiar sci OF opinions, has been appealing to the Geor
gians and their neighbors to repair TO Macon and
swell the torrent. Calculations boldly made
that the mass might amount TO $4,000 souls But its
suit has disappointed the sangune politicians who count
ed excessively on the agitation il would produce. Yet
we think it duty present both sides of the picture
and therefore give the flaming postscript telegraphc
bulletin OF the Southern Press and alongside OF IT, by
way of correcting its extravaganza, we lay before our
readers the other bulletins which were received by a
member of Congress, rather the other side OF the
question One thing, at all events, strikes rather
strange that il this meeting was one of the largest and
most enthusiastic held" in Georgia, their immense
numbers and extraordinary enthusiasm not suf-
fcient to keep them together for second day They
assembled on Thursday. and yet they adjourned on
Thursday night--no second day allowed even TO Mr..
Rhett for the development OF his notable plan of tenn
porary secession" This want OF excitement is rather
significant
