The Irish in Georgia.

Macon, Ga., July 26, 1861.

To the Editors of the Dispatch; I enclose, the result of an Irish meeting here. It illustrates the patriotic sentiment that inspires them:

The Lochearn Guards.--The meeting of Irish citizens, held in this city last night, was large and enthusiastic. A military company was at once organized, and Jack on Bornes unanimously elected Captain. The company was named the Loerane Guards in compliment to our gallant and esteemed fellow citizen, Col. O. A. Lochrane, amid cheers and great enthusiasm.

This is a right move. We know these brave sons of the ‘"green Isle of Erin"’ will uphold with honor the banner of freedom, and strike ‘"till the last armed foe expires"’ in defence of the South. The combat thickens, on ye braves!
