Capt. John Miller moved that, while the
Committee were absent, the refugees present
should report their names to the ,Secretary f
and that the list should.be published in the
Knoxville Register. Carried.
The Committee reported the following re
solutions, which were unanimously adopted •
11('solved, 1st, That 4n our judgment, the
policy adopted by Gen. Bragg in withdraw
ing our scattered forces from the various
points at which they had been stationed for
local defence in E. Tennessee and concentra
ting them on the Georgia frontier was dic
tated by military necessity, and has been ex
ecuted with consummate ability, and that
however much we may deplore a necessity
which drives us from our homes and expo
ses them to the.ruthless devastation cf.au ua-
scrupulous fo.(; however deeply we may sym
pathize with the bleeding hearts of those who
less fortunate than ourselves, must remain
ami bide the “pollings of the pitiless storm’,
oi \ ankeo brutality, our confidence in Gen
Rragg and the officers and soldiers under
bis command is undiminished. That we an
tipate with entire confidence the recovery
of our beloved State at no distant day; but
tl»»d come wea! or woo, we shall, with firm
hearts, cheerfully bide our time, in the full
confidence that under the leadership of Gen.
Bragg, our brave and gallant army will ac
complish all that mortal men are capable of.
llesolved, 2d, That our confidence in Pres
ident Davis is undiminished. That inthe
successful resistance our gallant army have
waged for nearly two and a-half years under
ins administration against the unparalleled ef-
lorts of an unscrupulous foe for our subjuga
tion and our moral .and physical abasement,
m i nemy which, in numbers, material re-
sources and all the appliances of war, posses
sed such overwhelming superiority as might
have appalled any other than one of his iron
will, and unconquerable spirit, we find the
most Indubitable evidence of his w isdom
statesmanship,firmness and all the qualities-
of head and heart which the heavy responsi
hililies ot his situation demand ; that we re
cognize in him, moreover, and are proud to
present him to the world as a type of tha
true Southern gentleman, and Christian pa
triot, and an exemplar of Southern spirit and
Southern character.
Resolved, 33* That we deprecate as scarce
ly less than our foe the hated Yankee, the
croakers-ami would be considered military
critics, who, lacking braiua to understand
t he simplest strategy, or the nerve to meet a-
partial disaster, do constantly and persever-
tngly parade before the- public gaze, such
pictures of military blunderkand figure woe
:ts exist only in their fevered, frightened iiu.1
aginations, and who by their own most de.
plorahlc blunders, to call them by no harsh
er name, have done an incalculable amount
of harm in demoralizing public sentiment,
in impairing in the minds of the soldier, the
confidence so necessary, if not indispensa
ble, to success, and in depriving one of the
bravest and ablest commanders and truest
patriots in the Confederate army, of that
hearty S5'mj)athy and co-operation, and the
profound gratitude which he lias so well
earned under the most trying emergen-
ey. That we. do most respectfully but
earnestly" commend to the military crit
ics that, instead of harrowing up the fears
of the public as to the incapacity of those in
the field, and demoralizing onr army as far
as ai them lies, that they will itetter serve

THE FRENCH CONQUEST OF MEXICO.
One conclusion from all this must be clear
—Mexico has no grievance in the eyes of
Europe. By a long series of outrages and
by the dereliction of every public duty she
exposed herself to war, and she has suc
cumbed to a conqueror,* That conqueror
has treated her with, at any rate, a show of
consideration and deference. He has invited
her notables to dispose of themselves, and
after their experience ot Republican institu
tions, it would certainly not be surprising
if they sincerely desired a government of
another form. If FraneeTinds her account
in the political prospects which these ar
rangements open, we can only say that she
has been at the whole charge of the pro
ceeding, and that the bargain does not ap
pear to bo extravagantly in her favor. If
an Austrian Archduke chooses to undertake
the mission ot regenerating'Mexico, we can
only wish him success. It is not conceiva
ble that under any Goveanment whatever
the Mexicans should fail of being better
ruled than before; and if France and Aus
tria can make Mexico a State in which life
and property are secure, and public obliga
tions respected, they will certainly leave
Europe and Mexico their debtors.
ADDITIONAL FROM MEXICO.
A letter from Vera Cruz, dated August 6,
brings news of the occupation of Minatitlan
by the French. This is a town of some five
hundred people situated on the west bank of
the river Coatzacoalcas, in the Isthmus ol
Tehuantepec.
It was formerly the point of departure
on the Atlantic, from which various at
tempts were made to establish inter-ocean
ic communication across the Isthmus, It is
about twenty miles from the mouth of the
river.
An expedition had started to occupy Tam
pico.
It was rumored that Don Benito Juarez
had been preparing to proceed t o Matainu.-
ras or New Leon—his object being to take
refuge in Texas; but it is thought he would
not be well received by the rebels, whom he
had offered to oppose, in accord with Presi
dent Lincoln.
The Menictffc journal, the Estafettc, in an
article abusive of Juarez and his govern
ment, uses the following language*
Their principal hope to-day lies in aid from
North America. Whatever may be, in pre
sent circumstances, the embarrassments of
the Washington Cabinet, it will not readily
conform itself to the French occupation and
the establishment of an empire in Mexico.—
The Government of Juarez, all dishonored
as it is, is still, in the eyes of the Northern
Republicans, the last hope of the Monroe
doctrine, that great dream of Anglo-Saxon
supremacy, which is the more cherished, the
nearer it approaches extinction. The Mex
ican question will soon be for the Lincoln
Cabinet a question of the first order, and the
hostility ot the North will break out accor
ding to the progress of the American civil
war, la menacing notes, in loans of arms
and money, or in fillibustering expeditions
authorized by Federal rulers. The more the
annihilation'of the Juarist army is hastened,
the less risk will there be of a conflict with
North America. We have therefore heard
with great pleasure of an approaching cam
paign in the interior.
A Model Letter from Lincoln.—The
following is a model letter written by a great
warrior and strategist, Lincoln to Gen.
Grant:
Executive Mansion, \
Washington, July 18,1863. j
Maj. Gen. Grant:
My Dear General : I do not remember
that you and I ever met personally. -I write
this now as a grateful acknowledgment for
the almost Inestimable service you have done
the country. I wish to say a word farther.
When you first reached the vicinity of Y icks-
burg I thought you should do what they fi
nally did—march the troops across the neck,
run the batteries with the transports, and
thus go below, ani I never had any faith,
except a general one, that you knew better
than I, that the Yazoo pass expedition and
the like could succeed. 'When you got be
low and took Port Gibson, Grand Gulf and
vicinity. I thought you should go down the
river and join Gen. Banks ; and when you
turned Northward, East of the Big Black, I
feared it was a mistake. I now wish to make
the personal acknowledgment that you were

OUR PREFERENCE for gov. brown.
It is the custom of the opponents of Gov
Brown to characterize this paper as the r-
ean” of the Governor, and to insinuate tnat
its editors are influenced by the patronage
of the executive office in the support which
they have heretofore given and now accord
to Gov. Brown. Even Mr. Joshua Hill, m
his dignified way, speaks of certain support
ers of the Governor as having their Com•
missary Department ” threatened by his can
didacy. We have received from the Legis
lature. not from the Governor, the State
printing. Have the editors no right at all
to an opinion as to what is the best policy
for the people in this hour of the country’s
peril ? We have as much right as Mr. Josh
ua Hill, or Mr. anyone else, to onr opinion,
and while we are free men we intend to
claim it; and so long as we edit this paper
we intend to express it. We are not alone
now, and have not been whenever Governor
Brown was a candidate for the executive
chair, in the opinion that he was the best
man for the office. Many of the ablest and
best men in t he State have been of the same
opinion, and are, today, urging his election
with a*warmth and energy that does credit
to their judgment and wisdom. A large
majority of the people of the whole State
have voted for Gov. Brown whenever he
was before them, and will vote for him
again, because they believe he is the right
man, in the right place, at the right time.—
Arc all these men in the Governor’s “Com
missary Department ” ? Are all the patriot
ism, all the hate of office, and all the wisdom
confined to the enemies of Gov. Brown ? It
is a remarkable fact, taken in connection
with this part of our subject matter, that the
most notoriously bitter enemies of Gover
nor Brown are the most rampant office hun
ters in the State. Go to the last Legislature >
and pick out the men who were head and j
front of the opposition to Gov. Brown—
what are they at now ? Seeking a re-elec
tion to the Legislature, or an appointment
to some other post of honor in the gift of
tlu people or the President. They have
charity enough for their own weakness, but
r.one i'oi the weakness of their neigbors.
We support Gov. Brown because he has
proven to a majority of the people of Geor
gia, if not of the whole Confederacy that he
is honest, able and fearless in the discharge
of the duties of his office. We might and
truthfully that he has been successful in his
administration of the public affairs. No
man has more energy—no man’s mind can
grasp the great measures ot the times, ahd
apply the proper remedies for sudden exi
gencies with more force aud promptness.—
He is ever ready, and ready to act under
standing^. He is never idle. He is emphat
ically a working man. By day and by night
he has labored tor the good of the State and
the comfort of its citizens. That he has
been in office for three terms is very true.—
He is now before the people for re-election
because he has* been urged by many of the
wisest men of the State to stand at the helm
a little longer. He did not ask the people
to re-elect him. They asked him to serve
them, and without their consent he cannot
he their Chief Magistrate.
We live in stormy limes. We need an
Executive who has sagacity and firmness,
and who is above suspicion, as to his views
ol the War now upon us. We need a man
who has experience to guide him in his con
duct. No man is more pre-eminently quali
fied in these respects than Gov. Brown. An
citizens, having at heart the welfare of the
State, the security mid happiness of the
people, and the triumph of our arms over
the brutal foe now invading our homes, we
have looked iu vaiu to find a man, better
qualified, to secure us all these blessings,
than Gov. Brown. That a majority of the
people of this State believe with us, we have
no more doubt than we have of our own
existence.

The Recorder and Gov. Brown.—In
TELEGRAPHIC
'Company A, Leyden** Battalion of Ar
tillery, taken Prisoners.
We have seen the following dispatch from
Abingdon, Virginia, Mtent by private F. E
Henson, of Company A, Leyden’s Battalion
of Artillery, which went from Knoxville to
Cumberland Gap abont a month ago, ad
dressed to Mr. D. N. Judson, at this place,
and which we are permitted by that gentle*
man to publish :
“Abingdon, Sept. 15—The Company,
with Billy, (son of Mr. Judson) are taken
prisoners—all but thirty-eight, who are with
the horses. F. E. HENSON.
From the foregoing, it seems that there is
some foundation for the report that Cumber
land Gap is in ‘the possession of the enemy.
In all probability, When this capture of Co.
A, which is commanded by Capt. William
Barnes, of this city, was made, it was on its
retreat from the Gap, and it was probably
captured by the cavalry of the enemy.—Ed.

From Our Morning Edition.
reports op the press association.
Kntered according to act of Congress in the year 1S63, by
J. S. Thrasher, in the Clerk’s olhee of the District Court
ot the Confederate States for the Northern District of Ga.
last week’s Recorder there appeared as usual
a long,loose, disjointed, bungling article, de
voted to the abuse of his Exce llency tne
Governor. From the personal spite and
spleen exhibited, wc presume it is the pro
duction of the Assistant Editor. For want
of something new. the Major goes over the
old story,"and tells his astonished readers for
the twentieth time, that the Governor had
the audacity to differ with President Davis
on the constitutionality of the Conscription
Law. Had the Major stopped here, we
should not have noticed the article, but he
has gone on, and made some other state
ments which need correction. He says that
,‘Governor Brown had the correspondence
between him and the President published
and extensively distributed iu the army and
elsewhere, to weaken public confidence in
the Government.” This is a very unfortu
nate statement lor the Major on several ac
counts.
In the first place, we ask why the reading
of the correspondence between the Presi
dent and Gov, Brown should weaken public
confidence in the Government ? If the Pres
ident was right, and had the best of the ar
gument, certainly it would not. The Presi
dent did not think so, for he 7nid a large part
of the correspondence published in the Mich-
mond papers before Gov. Brown published a
syllable. Did the Major know that, or did he
keep it from his readers? At any rate, if
there was any harm in having the corres
pondence published, (which we do not be-
lieve^President Davis and Gov, Brown is
to blame. Further on, the Major accuses
the Governor of attempting to worry the
President, and bring his administration into
disrepute, and trying to make the soldiers
dissatisfied. These are very grave charges.
Now let us see if they are true. It is, noto
rious that Gov. Brown has been very etrej^
getic and successful in supplying men and
means to sustain the President; and we af
firm without the fear of successful contra- •
diction, that he has done more to sustain the
President in this war, than auy other Gov
ernor in the Confederacy. He lias also put
the military and civil power of the State at
the call of the President’s officers, to arrest
and send back deserters aud stragglers from
the army. Iu proof ot these assertions, we
bring forward the evidence of President Da
vis himself, which, it will be seen, contradicts
n the most positive manner, the charges
made by the Recorder. Here is what the
President says in a letter to Gov. Brown:
"In condus on, 1 take great pleasure in re :
cognising that the history of the past year af
fords the amplest justification for your asser
tion, that if the question had been, whether the
conscription law was necessary to raise men in
Georgia, the answer must have been in the neg
ative,T Your noble state has promptly responded
to every call that it has been my duty make on
her, and to you, personally, as her Erecutioe,
1 acknowledge my indebtedness for the prompt,
cordial and effective co-operation you have af
forded ms in the effort to defend our common
country against the common enemy.”
JEFFERSON DAVIS.
It will be seen that if what the President
Says is true, all of these charges against the
Governor are false, notoriously false. We;
and a large majority of the people believe
the Presi.JenL—Confed. Union.
