TUI’. CONVEVTIO The question, whether th" members of the Convention would assume 'he right or power to pledge or bind the counties they represented, by the nomi nation of'a candidate for Governor was discussed, and it was determined that they had no such power, and would not assume such a right. The delcg ites from this county expressly disclaimed any authority to bind the people of the county, and the head and front of all the offending is, that as citizens of Georgia, they presented Judge Nisbet us one proper to be vo'cd for, for Gov ernor, and recommended him to tliesiq port of the people, leaving tliem free to support that candidate whom their judgment approved. • ■ - Q— AN < >TII H H i* «<) %5 X(I A Ml \T< b Gov. Brown is out in another procla mation to the people of Ge- rgia —this time against the Convention and on his own account exclusively The Gover ernor says of his opponents : '‘They propose to select their own fa vorite for the office and, if all other persons, will sacrifice their preferences and unite on the person preferred by the Convention, they are willing to have perfect harmony.” l’rccisely--that is just what they want and Col. Chambers, appreciating the proposition and the public good though nominated by as many papers as Gov. Brown, patriotically withdraws from the contest, in favor ot Judge Nes bit. While Gov. Brown received the nomi nation of only a ft w individuals, against fitly right counties x\ bile some t xventy presses ot the State, reflecting the popu- j lar will, support Judge Nt bit and only four or live, support the Governor’s re- I election—he presis’s in dividing the peop e of the State by an nnprec< den cd candidacy.

The religion of the South is fer vent. No Canaanite was ever m worse case in Israelitish bands than will the Black Republican be who may find him self in the grip of good, God-fearing Georgians or Car Jinians. There has been a blessing of flags and a cursing of enemies all over the States, the like of which has never been seen since.the time of the Crusaders —let us say in a general fashion. As one of the colored brethren observed of a celebrated bap tist minister whom he followed in Sa vannah. “We don’t care much for him blessing, but his cussing is jist beweiful and make me feel awful happy.” [communicated.] THE COY'VENTION—JUDGE HAM MO YD—GOV. BROWN—A P PEAU to the people. Less than a month ago, all of us in dulged a hope that nominating Conveii tions—parly caucuses, and all such ma chinery of professional politicians, was done away with. But this hope has been disappointed : and on the eleventh inst., was re-inaugurated the reign of caucus. This was done in the teeth of the wishes of our people ; as the facts show ; and as the vote will demon strate, on the day of election. Judge Hammond, on taking his scat as president of the Convention said, “it was one of the most important Conven tions ever held in Georgia.” There are many wiio will be found to differ with the Judge. Many consider it, the least important, and the most uncalled for, Convention, uhich ever met. It is true, there is one aspect in which it may be regarded as an important meeting :lhat is, in reviving a system which all re garded as liable to great abuse,— a.sys tem chaiacterizcd by corruption, fraud, and intrigue. In this point of light, and in this alone, can it he truthfully’ said to have been an important Conven tion. 'i he people of the State, evident ly did no' considi r it so • otherwise they would have had representatives in the Convention, from every county. If the public interests have been neglected, or if they arc now in danger, how do y< u account tor the apa'hy of (hat public ? And if they re indeed in jeopardy why did no', the Convei.tion tell us where ilie peril lies? The truth is, this Conven tion did notspring from any discontent among’ tlie people, with ihe present State Administration • but from tlmse who s 'W as long as Gov. Brown was in the chair, certain men could not be let into certain emoluments. The people are cont< nt with the Administration of Gov. Brown. Why, there were only 58 counties represented in the Conven ion I —less than one half of the coun ties, of the State >o if the Judge, or any one else should thence infer it to have been so important a matter, it strikes us as a most illogical conclu sion : for from the same promise we should have drawn precisely the re verse ot it. z\t all events, we shall ap peal from the judgment of the Conven tion, to that tribunal of dernier resort the tribunal of public opiiron, of all | the people, and all the counties. We • maintain that 58 counties, out of 132, i Ins no right, through a' on vention to I diet >te to the ballancc of the'-tate - ■' For decency's sake, tiny ought to have I drummed up d< legates, fro h at least a maj n ity ot the counties. 1 here is one fact ceiineet* d with this t'onventii.n which lias struck the at’en tion of every one who has read their s range proceeding’s ; namely ; they en tirely ignored Gov. Brown—they did f not deign to mention his name, or his Administration. They did not com ' mend him, or (’ensure him. They ig | iiorcd him, and treated the Governor < i the State with - hat cont- mot ' This was singular an 1 :n -t ex I rao; d-nary. |\\ as there n 'lliii'g <> I latiu ? \\ as th. re no act of G v.

From the Chronicle & Sentinel. TO HIS EXCEEEENCT, GOV BROWN; On reading your Proclamation of the 9th inst., it occurred to the writer that i the people of Georg’ia might feel some gratification at the evidence it contain ed, showing that your Excellency ac knowledged the existence of a Constitu tion that you ought to obey. Yon have kindly told the people that the Consti tu'ion did not allow “any State” to “keep troops in time of peace,” “or en gage in war unless actually invaded, or in such imminent danger as wiil admit of no delay.” You also inform us that the President had taken charge “of all military operations in this state,” and that the Convention of Georgia had “passed an ordinance turning over the torts and arsenals of this State to the Confedeiacy.” And these are the rea sons assigned by your Excellency why }on have not called out “iroops” and taken other measures for the defense of the coast of Ge -rgia—the Constitution having assigned “that du\v to other persons, whose rightful authoritx’ 1 (you) have not wished to usurp.” While one can but allow the reasons assigned by “the Executive” for the course he has pursued in this matter, it. is impossible to blot out of memory or to efface from the mind the occurrences of the last few m mths, which rise up unbidden with all their bloody freshness, by the simple recital of your want of constituti. mil power which you now as sert. And will you not pardon me tor calling your attention to some of them ; - while you are requested to reconcile your past and present conduct. Last spring, when the gallant Bar tow—the very mention of whose name calls up emotions too big for utterance --whose heart was burning’ t -drive back the invaders of our soil, took ins brave boys and went to Virginia, and dared, against gour order, to take arms enough for their use in fighting our enemies, in his absence, behind his back, and without any provocation or excuse, except the taking of guns to fight with, assailed him in the severest and most want n manner your powers, aided by all the help you could com mand, could possibly bring to bear up on him. You did all you could —yon tried to crush him. But he went to battle and to glory. At the same time o her brave men--as Iwave and as true as < ver lived from Fulton, Gobb, 1 • loyd, and oilier counties, desired logo ami assist Bartow to drive back the enemy. But what did you, in effect, say to them ? “If you go, you must go without arms. 1 have thousands of the very best (juality, which 1 ordered fi om the arsenal at Augusta, but you shal’ not have them.” But the true Georgians did not stop at this. They went without arms, and procured the best that could be furnish ed them after reaching Virginia. 1 hey joined Bartow. They fought with him; and many of them died with him fight ing Lincoln’s myrmidons, but, thank God, enough of them survived to obex’ his last order, ‘never give up the fight,’ and to drive back the last uncenquercd invader from the field. But what were [you doing all this time? You hail I plenty of men with the best arms at . y-mr command. But how did you use them ? ’l on now say, under your hand | i and seal, that you could not “engage in I ' war,” and yet you mustered, at Camp' McDonald, about 2,.>0U of vour web armed ‘‘troops’’ into service “during! th-* war.” What war? Was Geoigia [ “invaded ?” "Was there imminent dan-] ger ot it? Aon now say there was not. 1 hese troops were needed at Ma ! nass is—ihey desired were anxious to go ; the Secretary of War almost beg ged tor them. But you s übbornlv re fused to let them go, unless the Bresi- ' dent would receive them as a Brigade ' and allow you to appoint the General, i lie ask d 3 oil to send <m the lieg’im mts, , ami x-’U replied: will y. n take the I Lng.i le.

And, I’haraoh-like, you still re fused to let the Fourth Brigade go.— Nor were you turned from j'onr purpose until the name and fame of Bar ow had become immortal, and the entire dele gation in Congress from Georgia, had united in sending yon a despatch by telegraph, urging you to send on the troops by Regiments and Battalions.— Then it was you saw’ it to be to your interest to yield. Then, and n t till then, would you let the troops go and join their brothers in arms. And yet, after all this, you talk to the people about the Constitution not letting you “engage in war.” You may be remin ded, hereafter, of more instances in xvhich you have no example but Abra ham Lincoln in totally disregarding’ the Constitution of your county, by One of the People. ACCEPTANCE OFJUDGE NISBET. Milledgeville, Sept. 11th 1861. Hon. E A. Nisbet, Macon: Dear Sir: The undersigned have been appointed, b.x z the Convention this da3’ assembled to inform you of the u nanimous piesentation of yourname as a candidate for the office of Governor of this State. We take pleasure in the performance of this duty, and feel sin cere g’ratifieation that the name of one whose talents integritx’ and patriotism guarantees the honor and welfare of the State, lias been so umuiimousl}’ agreed upon I'3’ the Conven ion. We hope you xx’ill signify concurrence in the action of the Convention. We are respectfully, Your fellow citizens. Levi S. D’Lyon, T. G. Holt, W. M. Slaughter. Macon Ga., Sept 15th 1861. Messrs. Levi S. D’lyon Tiiadeus G. Holt and Wm.

Bv reference o the published proceed dinii’s of the Convention I find that, it presents my name to the people ot Geor o a as 01 e proper to be v-led forior tne office* of Governor of this State at the [ etisuiug election and recommend m\’ election by ihc adoption ol the following’ resolution: Resolved, That we present to the people of Ge rgia, th'* mime of the i 1011. E. A. Nisbet, of the county of Bibb, a-s one evei'3' way suitable and pr per to be voted torfor the offi •(* of Governor of this J'tate at the ensuing election, bx’ the I'cople. 'J'itar-body which x*ou represent, was not a partj’ Convention. In its elements and in its action, it demonstrated itself to be simply an advigoiy council of the people, assembled for no purpose, but to select and recoin nend Electors of a I’resident and \ ic- -i’resident, and a can didate for the office ol Governor. It represents a la go proportion ol the peo ple. It was composed of individuals belonging to all of the old pirty divis ions of the State; in character and inti I ligence it was equal to any other si milar body heretofore convened, and its action was characterised by dignity moderation and delicacy. Recommend ed I*)’ such a representation < I the peo ple and in such form, 1 consent to the use of 1113’ name, and accept the candi dacy 10 which I have been invited. if 1 had been called out by a Convention having in view’ the revival of old, or the os gauiz ition of new parties 1 would without hesitation withhold my name I could not lend it to such puroosc. Fortunately’ parties in our groat State arc extinct and he who under existing circumstances, would si ek to draw anew the obliterated lines of popul r division or open issues closed by the secession of the state or ar m e prejudice-an I ani mosities laid to rest by the wai, is scarcely i- ss a traitor than the man who would apply the torch to the -Stat.-Cap itol or dwelling among us, xvith the rc | put of a loyal citizen, give aid and ; comfort to our cm n-ics. In relation t > what may be designa ted as the domestic adminis rati m of the Sate Government, whoevi r may be the incumbent ol the gubernatorial chair for the next two years will have in my opinion, little to do Im to main tain order bv a vigilant administration of the law’s ami husband candidly all the resources c to - S at-*. llis para mount obligation his most prosing duty’ and i is most solemn trust so far as bis office is concerned will be to wield all the power ol the Sta'c in a bold and de termined prosecution of tin xvar in which we are engaged. Our revolution is an accomplished, if not a. kn »xvlodged fact. We are an indt pendent people. We have established a Con-1 it.lll i->ll for the ( >nfe i-. rate S ates, which chal lenges and in fact has receive 1 the ad miration of the wori I ami we hove or- a i.zed a G wernm mt under it c rn j let- in all its parts. This G’ov ernm nt is in ha’rm-mi ms operation, with a man at its head who has the anti i>s w:.--loin of Washington wi;h the hi Hr.st order of military genius and administrative talent. Ii let alone, no people could rival us in our rapid s ri i s w- r :pr • .‘■■ il’y.

They’ are determined to reconstruct the Union that they may’ enjoy their accustomed tribute from the S' uth and to manumit cur slaves hat fanaticism may’ be free. Absurd as it may sound, such is their po'icy. Our gallant soldiers thus far have triun.phed on every’ important Held but peace is yet to be conquered. In this war our nationality is still at stake. It is a war tor Independence, for property* for social purity and religious liberty’. In responsibility for its successful pros ecution, our noble Slate occupies a po sition second to none of her confeder ates. Whether she will respond to this responsibility, depends greatly upon the prudence and energy of her next Chief Magistrate. No man, with a just sense of his accountability’ to (?od and the country’ can desire the position of that officer but. no true patrioi can decline if called to it by’ ih* people. Should I be invested with this ]high trust, I will, under Providence, devote to it al! my energies and whatever abil ity’ I may’ possess. I will cordially and cheerfully' co-operate xvith the Confed erate Government, according to the Con stitution and laws, in the prosecution of the war, ami apply all the resourcse of men, and mind, at my’ command, to its triumphant termination. I need scarcely’ add that I appreciate die honor of my' nomination and thank you sincerely’ for the kind terms inxvhich you have been pleased to aoininuuicate it. With sincere regard, your fclloxv citizen, E A. Nisbet. — THE NEWSPAPERS ON THE GU BER N ATI) RiAL Q.UESTH)N.
