In Jhe first place, thq intestine war of words and acta pf Gov. .Brown towards the Confederate Ad ministrations is doing both our cause and our State grievous wrong and injury. Another Executive is needed to repair the wrong done. Secondly, it Is time that the books of all (he de partments where money has been freely handled— - id out or received, should he. over-looked. We ave heard whispers, yea, open assertions that all ;at rex right in the Slate Military department.— In entering npnothe campaign abopt.to open, the General-in-Chief feels a ssured that the soldiers who" have so long apd so nobly borne the hardships and dangers of the war require no'exhdrtatioo to respond to the calls of honor and doty. . . . With the Jiberly.transmittod by their forefathers, their have inherited the spirit to defend it. The choice between war and abjecl submission is before'them. To such a proposal brave men, with arms in their hands,can. have but one. answer. ' They cannot barter madhnod. for peace r nor the of self-goverment for life or property, justice to them requires a sterner admonition to those who have abandoned their comrades in tlie of peril. We charge uotliing for we know nothing,-hot bam beard accusations.

Brown opens his message with a compliment to Sherman,as follows: •Since your adjournment, in November, tho army of invasion^ led by a bold and skillful general, have passed through our State, laid waste our fields, baroed ouf dwe Hug houses, destroyed country re- cords’, applied tire .torch' to gin-houses, cotton and other property, occupied, and desecrated the capital, arid now hold the city ofSavaqnab, which gives them a water base from which they may, in future, oper ate upon the interior of the state.’, ,•* *. 7. ; . % ..

To this end he will establish Camps at Columbus, .Atlauta, Albany, bfacott and Augusta, Georgia ;;Montgomery, Selina^and Mobile, Alabama; and at Jackson, Macon and Coliiinbus/Mississippi; and such <rtber pointy as may be found expedient, to t who maybe prevented Jiy interruption of communication, may report will tin the time specified to the nearest Enrolling officer, or other officer on duty, to be forwarded as -soon as practicable;- and upon presenting, a certificate-from such officers, showing compliance with this requirement, will re ceive the pardon thereby ofiered- Thoae who nave deserted to the service of the enemy, or who have deserted after having been once pardoned for the same offense, and those who shall desert or absent tliemselves without authority after the publication of this Order, are excluded from its beoefits.
