GAB.TKEDL. CONVENTIONS. We are fearful that these must be re garded as necessary evils in Republican Governments. While agreeing with Gov. Brown that they are subject to misdirection and corruption, tnere me many instances in which re-course must be had to them for the rightful expres sion of public opinion. If we wish to alter a Constitution or inaugurate a great commercial, or in lac 1 , any other public movement, resort, for obvious reasons, is had to a Con ven'ion. It serves to concentrate and sys'ematise concurrent public opinion and there is no other way in which this object can be attained. Look for a moment at the difficulties attending the absence of nominating Conventions. The law requires a ma jority of all the votes cast for the elec tion of Governor If there arc more than two candidates the election is al most certainly defeated and devolved upon the Legislature. We do not think that this is desirable, though, if there were no other difficulties to be encoun tered in opposing Conventions we would unhesitatingly prefer that .alternative. But we must have an Electoral T ick et. How can we get it but by Conven tion ? How can we get members of Congress and State Senators but by the same process ? We may have a hall dozen candidates for each office. It a plurality elects, and we suppose it docs, then candidates having a minority of votes, represent or misrepresent their constituents. If the fundamental'law could be adap ted to meet the exigency, we would be glad to see an end of Conventions. As it is, we do not Jhink they can be got rid of, as it is the o«7y m >de of uniting public opinion, and in union there is strength, the end sought in all political aspiration. If we ever support a nomination it will be one free from the taint of cot ruption, and we can only sustain it then from a sense of public duty. We will .have to take the Electoral Ticket of the approaching Convention ; but its candidate for Governor must be worthy of the State and t.f the occasion to re ceive popular approval. EXTRACT OF A I.FITTER FROM NEW YORK. The foil wing is an extract of a letter received by a gentleman in this city from an intelligent gentleman of New York, dated Aug. 10, 1861.

Whereas it has pleased the Almighty to remove from our number, Benjamin Franklin Ward, by w< tin Is received whilst gallanty fighting in our sacred cause. Also Henry Bagget and Ste phen C. Moon who died of disease, yet were as thorough soldiers, as any who died by the bullet, therefore, by this Company. Resolved — That whilst wo bow with submission, to the irrevocable mandates of (he Great!) Commander above, we feel that the vacancy left in our ranks by B. Frank Ward, Stephen C. Moon and Henry Baggett, can never be filled as they filled ii, and we will ever checr ish tin ir memory sacredly. Resolved— That this whole company do. willingly tender to t.ie relatives of deceased, our heartfelt sympathies— and to the citizens of Cobb County and of the State of Georgia, we bear wit ness to the many noble, brave and gal lant qualities, as soldiers and as gentle men possessed by the deceased B. Frank Ward, Stephen C. Moon and Henry Bag gett.

Who shall represent the Counties of Cobb, Fulton and Clayton in the Geor gia Senate, is a ques ion which is now being canvassed amongst’the people of the District. I take the liberty of suggesting the name of the gentleman at the head of this Communication, as one eminently qualified for the position. He is a man of experience, integrity, talent and moral worth. He is a sound Lawyer, and as true as stell to the in terests of the South.

'I he St. Louis Rejndrtican contains the following: Ii is now stated that Jackson, as the ; director of the Confederate army, in its operations in this State, means to strike directly at St, Louis, while making a feint at (' liro and Bird’s Point. It is contended that St Louis, once in the ' possession '4 Jackson, with th • arsenel and barracks taken will aftbr l a key not only to the early occupation ol the capital, but to the speedy snbpiga'ion jof the entire State It will, also, it is held open the ' ississippi to the month ' **f th?

Ry ) Courier t 16. From the New York News. RESOURCES OF 8 HE SOUTH. 'i he rise in Southern stock’s has been brought about not only by purchasers on foreign account by Dailies aware of' the ch.mces of recognition, but by the conversion of Southern ownership in Northern property since the threats of confiscation. The Southern owners of Northern rail road, bank other stocks , reason that if the North succeeds in and its projects of subjugation, it xvill confiscate Southern property. Hence it is safer to have their property in Southern investments. On tiie other hand, if the South succeeds in its inde pendence, the Confederate State bonds be worth par and more. For these and similar reassons the commission houses have had large orders to buy Southern State stocks, and, the payment in some cases arc made by draft on the city banks. lt"is one feature of the case, and one intended by those who look to sep arntionas a mean sos material benefit lo the South, that all Southern capital employed at the North will becalled home and employe! there in ft manner that will develop industrial elements. Those self-deluded and deluding per sons who affected contempt for South ern poverty have left out of view the great fact that xvealth attracts wealth. New York having been the great financial centre of the Union has been the point to which S .uthern capital has tended for investments.— This being doin', the migration ot that Southern capital from the North to its new employments is pressing hard up on the resources of the North, and threats of confiscation have given a new impulse to the movement. The South, in the new order of things, will require all.the capital it can command to develop the home industries which are to a supplant the Northern pro ducts. 'lliis withdrawal of capital from the North and applying it to pro ductive occupation at the South, will give employment to thousands who have heretofore not been employed, and will confer upon the Border States that wealth and importance which have heretofore been the heritage of North ern States, but to which they have pre ferred war with its horrors. The Southern resources are immense, and if concentrated at home will rapidly ac cumulate. In illustration of the relative resour ces, we may state what is a truism, that every country and section of a country imports as a general thing only the equivalent for its surplus pro ductions exported. Thus, if a town employs its whole industry in produc ing wheat, and has 1,000,000 bushels to sell at $1 per bushel, its imports will be the equivalent $1,000,000 in money, goods, and whatever it chooses to take in'cxcha'ige. It may in one year import more, but it will owe for the excess over the sum of its exports, and will be obliged to import as much less in another year. The same is true of the nation. After all iircrnal wants are supplied, there is a quantity of ar ticles to be exported. 'I he sum realiz ed for these articles will be the nmouut of imports in whatever shape thev may come, and those imports will I elong to the sect ions • that produced the exports. When a duty is levied up on the e - oods imported, it is in effect paid by the produce exported, since without those exports then' had been no imports possible and by consequence no revenues. With these remarks, we take from the returns ol the Treasury Depart ment (he following figures, showing the value of the exports and imports for for<y years viz: from 1821 to 1861, with the customs paid in the same time: Gross value exports. . . .$5,’>56,401,27'2 Gross value of imports. .5,591,238,157 Customs duties on imports 1,1 91,874,4 1”> The imports and exputs lor years balance each other within 1 p r cent; and the duties that have have paid the war del>t of $127.000,000, besides the Mexican war ami tin* Florida war. and al!

N>w the object 1 >r which protective duties are ievie I is to give the manufactures <>t .he pro- tected article a price, higher by the amount, of duty than the imported artic !<• can be had for. Thus, if 100 yards of Cotton cloth can be imported for $lO, a 20 per cent, duty makes the cost sl2, ill order that the home manufacturers may get their price of course, at the ex pense of (he consumer. In order, therefore, to find how much the South and West have paid in this way to the North and East, wo have on ly to get the quanities manufactured in the forty years. , The Treasury returns give the approx imate quanities of goods manufactured in the country. We may select only cot ton wool and iron as those which have ‘open most persistently protected. Since 1820 tiie duty has ranged from 24 to 50 per cent. We shall now make a table of the quanity made and the extent to which the value was raised by the duty as follows; Manufactured, Duty, 1821(0 1861. 25 cent. Cottons. .$1,884,708,072 $171,177,018 Woolens... .1.302,766,224 325,691 556 Iron 1,101.886,536 275,4 11,634 Total. .$4,289,360,832 $1,072,340,208 We thus peiceivethatduring the time in Avliich the South and West have paid $900,000,000 on imported goods for the support of the Government, they have paid $1,072,340,208 in protection to the North and East, on the domestic pur chase of three articles only. Is it any matter of surprise that with such a vast drain of wealth, the national wealth should be unequally divided? that the North and East should be rich or that the South and West, should be poor? It is a matter of surprise, however, that those who have reaped this profit should become so purse proud as to sneer at and domineer ovc» - the paying section for their poverty and want of means to resist Northern arms. There is no wonder that even the Republican mem bers of the West should threaten no lon ger to pay this “tribute,'’ lint, to cast off the incubus of the East. The avowed public policy of the Confederate States is entire free trade for the \\ est as well as for themselves, and there is no dou t but that a community of interest will sooner or later coincide in a common policy after the war party shall have de stroyed their own interests and the na tional character. Run the Blockade.—The steamer Miramon, whicii for some time has been confined in the port of Mobile by the Yankee blockaders managed to effect her escape on 1 >st Monday night dur ing the heavy blow, and is now safely at anchor in the Lake, at the termnius of the I’ontchartrain Railroad. This is the steamer whose appearance on Tues day in the Mississippi so alarmed the people of the lake shore watering pla ces, and it is exceedingly gratifying to that she is much more likely to prove a friend ami defender than an enemy.

'1 he Notes arc of the denomination of $5, $lO, SSO, and SIOO. The mechanical execution ol the Notes, however, was found to be so indifferent, that our ex perienced bank officers at once decided that, to circulate them would be to oiler a chance t > the clever forgers of A’an kcedom, of which they would not be slow to avail themselves. After some consultation, it was determined that it would be best that our city banks should rccei\’e the Notes, aiid retain them in their vaults until they can be exchanged for Noles less liable to imitation, and more worthy the dignity of the South ern Government. In the meantime, to prevent any embarrassment, the banks will, we understand, issue their own Notes to the amount required. We liave not seen any of the objectionable specimens cf the Treasury Notes, but we hear that they are merely litho graphed, and in design and finish pres ent few obstaces in the way of any skillful forger. We believe that the views of our Charleston bank officers on this subject are fully concurred in by the bankers of Richmond.
