Editors Tribune : Permit me to say Riat the people could not do better than to re-elect Hon. Joseph E. Brown for the United States Senate. lie can do more to build up the material in terests of Georgia than any other pub lic man in the State. His long career as a successful and far sighted busi ness man ; his able management of the State road; his development of the coal fields of Dade county, by which cheap coal will be furnished to. run the industrial enterprises which will spring up in the near future, is ample proof of this fact. He may lie deficient in painting baflie scenes from the slump; but to develop the resources of the “Empire Slate’’of the South he is the right man. If the legislature represents the will of the will of the people, it will return him Io the Senate. Entkiii’Klsk. Kumova I. .1. 11. & W. .1.

The following sketch of this heroic fallen brave, whose picture is given in ‘mother part of the present issue, is taken from Major Sidney Herbert’s published “Roster of Georgia Vol unteer Military Organization, and will be read with interest by the . young officers of “Camp Lee”: Joseph Clay Habersham wassentin early youth to the Sing Sing, N. Y., Military Academy, where, by his stu dious habits and noble character, he laid the foundation for his subsequent military career. When the late war commenced he was a student at South Carolina College, Columbia, S. 0., and was chosen Orderly Sergeant of the company so promptly organized I by the students of that institution.! Aside from his military education, Sergeant Habersham was .possessed of rare natural qualifications for this important position, and to his zeal and efliciency Were due (he high charac ter and soldierly hearing of this com mand. About the 12th of April, JSfil, the company departed for Charleston, and was assigned to duty there in the , engagements preceding the fall of Fort Sumter. Among the very first Io en ter the Confederate service, this gal lant young soldier rapidly rose to the front rank in efficiency, knwledge of military affairs, and manly courage. ■ When the college company disband eb from temporary service, and scat tered into permanent commands, Ser geant Habersham’s rare qualities as; a stall'officer were sufficient to secure j him an honored position on the stall'of f Gen. IL W.Merccr. and later, dttrinf?- thc war, on the staff of Gen. Gist, and other commanders, with the rank of Captain. Valuable service was per-| formed 4»y this young soldier, while I on staff of Gen. Smith, at Tyhee and other points around Savannah, and at Brunswick, before he participated in Hie more active and hazardous duties of a staff officer in the Army of North ern Virginia. And although his po sition was one of importance, ami kept him frequently exposed to danger,.yet he passed through hardships and ex posure on the coast, and the terrible battles in Virgrnia (where his cousin, Lieut. Fred Habersham, was killed), thence moved across the Mississippi, and finally back to Georgia, where, although then on the stalfof Gen. Gist he fell in battle. before Atlanta, in the midst of Gen.* forcer’s old brigade and surrounded by .the playinaAos and friends of his youth and opfcuiiig 1 manhood. I j Os the.death of Captaip tnc South Carolinian, under da til of Atlanta, Aug. R, 18G4, says: “(Ren. Gizt’s staff acted with distinguished gallantry. Major S and lla|er- sham were at their respective posts, waving their hats and swords and j urging on the men. All of their; horses wore shot. * * * * .* v i Captain Habersham rode in front of the Forty-sixth Georgia, assisting its gallant Colonel in leading his men, waving his hat in one hand,- his sword in the other. When within a short distance- of the enemy—but leaping to the ground—he rushed on waving his sword and cheering. Just a few moments after a shell from the enemy burst near him. * * * Captain Loe Cutler (who had seen him but a few moments before put a sol dier on the back to encourage hint jto keep up), ran to his assistance as lie fell, and to whom ho said ; ‘Tell my mothet*! die happy—l dieat my post, defending my country.’ Then his noble spirit was borne away upon the shouts of victory from thousands of patriotic hearts.” A Nuisance. We would respectfully call the at tention pf the city authorities to the horrible condition the Howard street sewer is in, where it crosses Broad. The stench issuing from either end, is sickening and it is feared now that the odor has given Mr. Jim Spronll a spoil of typhoid fever, as he has lately con tracted that disease audit can be at tributed to no other cause. Ten o’clock at night (ho stench is dreadful audit this is not a harbinger of disease there is nothing that is. The authorities have been censured very severely for ■ tliis negligence, and we think justly so. One of tile Chatham’s Wounded, As the corps of the Chatham Artil lery was coming down the Calhoun road at full tilt, yesterday, Orderly Sergeant Turner's horse became un manageable, thereby causing him tn run into Guidon Saussy. The former’s sword passed through the latter's ear. inflicting an ugly, through not very painful wound. Guidon Saussy is do ing well but says Sergeant Turner will have to practice riding before the next parade. Take Notice.
