I have seen a private letter from my.i-a-
••emed lcllow-townsman, Gen. Ilansell, in
which ho declines to.become n candidate for
:!ic Si*iJc Senate, and in which he expresses
iiis intention ot supporting Col. Watkin9.
regret that General llausell hits withdrawn
li m the canvass, because his ability, indus
try and dignified deportment make him a
worthy representative in the Legislative de
partment, ot the State Government. Icon-
cur most cordially in General Hansell’s de
termination to support Colonel WatlTins, a
gentleman who will worthily and ably till
the place of Senator. Col. Watkins will be
warmly supported in Cobb county, and re
ceive, as hi 1 deserves, a large vote.

Juhun :
I e my name suggested as a candidate
o represent the people of the 35th Senato-
- ill District (composed of the counties of
Fulton, Cobb and Clayton), in the next Gen
ii! Assembly of the State. The announce
ment of my name was entirely the work of
friends- —an expression of their partiality for
me in that connection.
I had thought, and probably have said,
t.lml f could not be induced, to be a cand ; -
latc tor any civk office during the war; > at
finding myself unable for service in the ir-
my, with hut little hope ot being abl to re-
iurn to the field under several montl'p^ 1
yield my assent.
When I entered the service I determined
that nothing but Providential causes should
take me out of it. Such is my determina
tion to day.
Should 1 he elcclcd, only such ot my time
as is absolutely necessary lor the discharge
of the duties devolved upon me shall be lost
to the service; and in no event do I contem
plate retirement from my country’s defence
as long as I am able to.strike a.blow in our
cause,
II elected, my energies shall be devoted
l.o such measures as, in my judgment, will
he most conducive to the public good; and
believing, as I do, that our future, as a free
and happy people, depends upon the success
.f our arms, I would be recreant to my prim
. ipks, should I fail in every practical way
to aid and encourage my brothers in arms

The news of the assault on Fort Sumter
and the repulse of the enemy announced
Wednesday morning, was the subject of
general congratulation among our citizens.
The greatest enthusiasm was exhibited.—
The capture of one hundred and fifteen Yan
kees, including several prominent naval offi
cers, will have an important bearing on the
future progress of the siege and the conduct
of the enemy under Hags of truce. It will
also add another to tiie lessons they have
learned,that, however much superior to their
antagonists, they arc in weight of metal and
force ol projectile?, the contest whenever it
come3 down to an actual trial of indiiidual
pluck, always plants the victory on our ban
ner. Perhaps, however, in this instance,
they were deceived, aud although prepared
to fight, they did not expect to meet more
than an insignificant guard, who were to bo
speedily overpowered. Be this as it may,
they were egregiously mistaken, and when
with a thousand men and a score or more of
barge?, they arrived at the base of Sumter, it
was to receive a punishment at the hfbdsof
our brave troops that will add to, it not illus
trate, the already disgraceful record of Yan
kee defeat?.
The good book tells us that “the battle
is dot always to.the s.trong ’—aud the Scrip :
turc was verified by the events of Wednes
day night. Fort Sumter was garrisoned by
the Charleston Battalion, Julius A. Blake
commanding, and perhaps one or two other
companies, whose names we have not learn
ed,—the whole under command of Major
Stephen Elliott, Jr., whose gallantry hereto
fore has already made him familiar to all
who have watched the progress ot events in
this State.
Throughout the tierce bombardment of
the day they had lemaiued silent spectators-
ot the fight going on around them, and pa
tiently endured the steady shelling of the
tleet. At night, however, preparations were
made for the anticipated attack. Compauies
were posted at various points within the
ruius, and with watchful eyes, they com
menced their careful vigils over the time-
honored old pile which was committed to
their keeping.
Such was the condition of affairs until
about half past one o’clock’, when suddenly
from the South face there were espied ad
vancing through the gloom, a number of
barges, estimated about thirty, each one, in
the language of an eye-witness, “black with
men.” The alarm was instantly given, and
in a moment'more Forts Moultrie, Johnson,
and the gunboat Chicora opened tire in the
direction of the approach.
Tho battalion lined the walls of Sumter,
>and as the Fedcrals landed on the rocks, re
ceived them with sharp vollies of musketry
which added confusion to their already be
wildered movements. A strong paity of the
enemy now hastily gathered, and made an
attempt to climb over the ruins of the sally
port, which had been torn down by the tre
mendous fire ot their land batteries. Our
men received Uiem breast to breast, pelting
them with brickbats and pouring in a spat
tering shower ot balls. Some, bolder than
the others, dashed forward, anil seizing
Yankees, one in each hand, and dragged
them by main torce inside. Tints the light
raged for 20 or 30 minutes, when the Fed
crals, finding themselves overpowered, and
likely to be cut to pieces, threw down their
arms, retreated Jo the shelter of the walls,
and surrendered. Those who remained in
the boats, not already landed, made their
escape under the cover of the night, follow
ed however, by the spiteful balls of the bat
teries above named.
Thus the engagement, brief but decisive,
ceased. The remainder of the story is told
in few words.
On our part not a man was hurt. < >u the
part of the enemy oue was found killed and
J9wounded. These were all found lying out
side of the tort on the rocks. None of the
Federate, at any time, penetrated the work,
until brought in as prisoners .of war. The
effect of our fire on the barges is unknown,
but from the sound of crashing boards and
the outcries of men, as well as from the tact
that two or three barges were subsequently
seen floating ofl* Morris’ Island, it is believ
ed that the loss has been very great.
Our captures, besides thirteen officers and
one hundred and two men, consist of four
barges and three flags. One of the latter
compensates for all the bricks and bullets
thrown, beiug no less than the identical
“gridiron” carried off from Fort Sumter in
1361, exhibited to a monster mass meeting
in New York shortly after, talked, cheered
and prayed over until almost sanctified,
wrapped around the gouty limbs of old
Seoti, and finally brought back under oath
that it should be victoriously re-planted on
the wall? where it was first lowered in re
cognition of the Southern Confederacy:—
For this purpose, under an armed guard of
a thousand men, it was brought to Fort Sum
ter on Wednesday night. For this reason
we prize the memorial, and shall take good
care that the relic thus restored to its right-
iul owners shall be rigorously preserved
among the momentocs of this remarkable
struggle. The ii eid' nt, simple as it is, shows
that there is a Diving Providence carving
out for us our destiny, and may be ominous
m these our dark hours Qf the glorious suc
cess which will eventually reward our cause,
The enemy were quiet all yesterday. The
Monitors were lying behind Morris’ Island,
evidently undergoing repairs. Most of the
firing done was by our batteries on James 1
Island, which annoyed the workers on Cum
mings’ Point by a steady stream of round
shot 3 and shell at intervals ot ten or fifteen
minutes.
During the day a large number ot empty
ammunition boxes, thrown .overboard by
the enemy during the engagement, were
picked up in the harbor. A portion of a
vessel was also found badly marked by a
shell. It had evidently been torn off from
one of the members of'the fleet.
The enemy sent in a flag of truce yester
day morning and was met by a boat .from
Fort Sumter. The bearer of the Yankee
tia£ of truce was informed that no flag of
truce boats could be received until satisfac
tory explanation was given why they fired
upon our flag of truce. We learn that the
enemy’s boat” brought a letter bag aud dis
patches for Gen. Beauregard. A proposi
tion was made by the Admiral to send a
Surgeon to attend to the Federal wounded,
which was declined, a Surgeon having been
already detailed for that work.

Gov. Vance reached the spot after the
work of destruction was nearly over. He
addressed the crowd, begging them to de

no such example had been set in Lincoln
dominions. The soldiers cheered Gover
nor Vance and dispersed. At one o’clock
they left the city. The building and power

Rolling Stock Adrift.—We had the
pleasure of meeting, yesterday, our valued
friend, Col. E W. Cole, the able aijd ener
getic Superintendent of the Nashville &
Chattanooga Railroad, from whom we arc
gratified to learn that all the rolling stock
and machinery of the road was safely re
moved from Chattanooga before the evacua
tion of our forces on Monday night last.
It was a strange sight we witnessed yes
terday, from our office window, to see nine
locomotives and nine cars alternately
hitched together, belonginJ to this road,
passing along , the track. As novel a sight
also was that of seeing cars from Louisville
& Nashville, Memphis.& Charleston, East
Tennessee and Georgia, Macon & Western,
Manchester & McMinnville, Atlanta & West
Point, Chattanooga & Nashville, and others
net recollected. Truly it would seem roll
ing slock was adrift indeed-

moved his machine shop.
The Athenaeum.—The splendid play of
Metamora ca ne off last night, to a crowded
house. All the characters were well per
formed and deserving of great credit.
We calfed attention a few days ago to the
disgraceful behavior of a few soldiers in the
theatre, and thought that our censure had
some effect, their conduct being somewhat
better afterwards. We, however, regret
very much to say that last night the beha
vior was shameful. A parcel of ill-bred
men disturbed the audience by their shout
ing and laughing. They appear to imagine
because they are soldiers, any license they
may desire to take must bo permitted. We
desire to know where the police of our city
is, or where is the provost guard that Col.
Lee was always punctual in sending to the
theatre, so that no disturbance could be
made. A great many ladies were present
las knight, who, no doubt, were made very
uncomfortable by tho disgraceful behavior
of a few low bred men, all qf which could
have been avoided had the commander of
the post detailed a guard to keep the sol
diers in order. We beg leave to call the at
tention of the comfnander of the post to
this subject, as the citizens are quite unable
to cope with the soldiers, and it is his duty
to prevent any ill conduct on their part.
