FOR GOVERNOR:
JOSEPH E. BROWN.
PRESIDENT DAVIS TO GOVER-
NOR BROWN.
u I»i conclusion I take great pleas
ure in recognizing that the history
ot the past year alfords the amplest
justification for your assertion, that
if the question had beeii, whether
the conscription law was necessary
in order to raise men in Georgia,
the answer must have been in the
negative. Your noble State has
promptly responded to every call
that it has been my duty to make
on her, and to you, personally, as
her Executive, I acknowledge my
indebtedness for the prompt, cordial
and effective co-operation you have
afforded me in the effort to defend
our common country against the
ron^non enemy.”—Jefferson Davis.

THE SITUATION IN FROST.
tor rattle of .cntCAM.vua.v.
Wo have the most gratifying intelligence
hom the front. The battle of Chicainau-
ga lm« been fought and won, and the enemy
no longer pollutes Georgia soil with liis
presence. The indications, too, are plain
that a large portion of Tennessee will soon
ho delivered from the presence of the van
dal foe that lias so long devastated her
field', insulted, outraged, and plundered her
gallant people. A telegram now before us,
dated on yesterday, addressed to a distin
guished Tennessee in *n this city, and com
ing from one who is in a position to know’
the situation of affairs in the vicinity of
Chattanooga, says to the Tennesseeans:—
“ TilR ItO.YD IS CLEAR, COME ON HOME !”—
Doubtless wo are now in possession ol Chat
tanooga, and if reports, upon which we
plane implicit reliance, be true, in his front
and in his rear, and on all sides, the wily
Iloscerans, with a hare remnant of his army
stands deprived of the ability either to hold
his position, or with the mam portion ofhis
i'< trees to esc. ipe. We are ad vised that thou
sands of Jii3 men have been made prison
ers since the last light, and that they keep
surrendering themselves in bodies of fiities
and hundreds along the line, stating that
they had been destitute ol food for two days.
Verily Ins the bloody battle of the “Stream
of Death” proved pregnant already with
great results; that momentous results will tlow
from if,Should its advantages bo pursued
into the very heart of Tennessee, we have
every reason to believe—results that will es
tablish in tho future the fact that the South
cannot bo conquered—that the South will
soon be Iroe. Of tho much abused and tra
duced individual, Gen. Bragg—all of which
lie has borne with the fortitude of a Chris
tian soldier—what will now be said ? Avaunt
ye croakers, yo censors of the press, yc malcon
tents, and closet critics ! Hide your “dimin
ished heads,” and learn from the events of
1 ho past few days a lesson that will teach
you forbearance in the future—thatwill teach
you to “hold up” the arms of those who lead
your armies into battle,and not to pull them
down! But wo forbear, and will only add
that Georgia owes to Gen. Bragg and his gal
lant army an eternal debt of gratitude. But
lor his strategy, his masterly movements, by
which lie circumvented, and finally defeated
tho wily Iloscerans, our Stato would now be
experiencing what Virginia, and Tcnncssee»
and Mississippi, and others of our Confeder
ate sisters have experienced, and our city
have been in possession of the vandal foe.—
All honor, then, to the noble old CniEF and
his gallant, army that came in time to our
rescue !
Below we give such items of interest as we
were able to gather up yesterday morning:
We learn from sources deemed rol table,
1 hat. on yesterday (Tuesday) Gen. Forrest de
stroyed the pontoon bridges across the Ten
nessee river, by which the enemy expected
to cross in the event of defeat, but being dri
ven from that portion of the river, they fell
into our hands.
It. is also stated that the right wing of our
army had succeeded in getting in the ene
my's rear, cutting off his retreat by way of
the Tennessee.
Iloscerans’ men are reported to be with
out any rations or ammunition, all their
stores having been destroyed to prevent their
falling in our hands.
Our capture of light artillery will foot up
53 pieces, many of which are very fine Par
rott guns.
The battle-field is represented as literally
covered with dead and wounded Yankees,
and a very intelligent gentleman informs us
that the enemy’s loss will exceed ours five to
.me. All our wounded have been removed
irons the field, and are being as well cared
for a3 circumstances will permit.
.Several of the Yankees captured Tuesday
report that they are subsisting on greeu corn
and state that if cat off from crossing the
river, the whole army will surrender, rather
than starve.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE GUBERNATORIAL
OFFICE.
The importance of the duties and office
with which the Governor o£s our Common
wealths are entrusted, is in dangerjof being
overlooked in times of popular excitement
or of the prevalence of party aniuaosi
ties.
The Constitution of our State makes the
Governor a co-ordinate branch ot the Legis
latiro and Executive departments of Gov
eminent; and the extent to which his pow
ers go, are distinctly assigned and fixed by
that same instrument. It is made the Gov
ernor’s duty by the Constitution to furnish
to the General Assembly information of the
state of the Republic and recommend to their
consideration such measures as he tnaj’ deem
necessary and expedient
He also has the revision'of all bills before
they become laws, and every vote, resolution
or order, except on a question of election or
adjournment, must receive the Governor’s
signature before it becomes binding, provi
sion being made for the overruling of a veto
of any measure, by a two thirds vote of both
branches of the Genera! Assembly.
From this brief statement ot the powers
invested by the Constitution in the Gover
nor of the State, it may lie seen how impor
tant is the Gubernatorial offiec. The Gov
ernor does not act in the capacity of a mere
clerk to sign bills after they have been pas
sed by both branches of the Legislature, but
is also one of the three separate and distinct
law making powers of tho State, inasmuch
as he may recommend to the other two pow
ers, the Senate and House of Representa
tives, measures necessary and expedient lor
the State, and place his veto on auy measure
he may deem detrimental to the interests of
the State—his single negative action on a
bill, resolution, or order, by refusing to sign
them, availing as much as the positive ac
tion of either branch in their favor.
However important the measure that has
passed the Semite and House of Representa
tives, however intimately involved the weal
of the people, the Governor has the power
to veto it, and if it fail to receive the two-
thirds’ vote of both those branches, it falls
to the ground, and the people lose Ihe bene
fit of it, or are freed from its disadvantages.
If the Governor be not endowed with vast
foresight in public matters, if he be not ex
perienced, il he lack judgment, he may do
an incalculable amount of injury to the State
both by failing to recommend “ necessary”
measures, and by laying liis negative restric
tion on those that are necessary.
It behooves the people of Georgia, then,
in such perilous times as these, to look well
to the candidate whom they select, to see to
it that he is possessed of all the prudence
sagacity, foresight and energy with which
one ought to possess who is to administer
the affairs of this great State during the try
ing exigencies of the next two years ol its
history. When a vessel puts out to sea, the
two great questions to be considered are, is
the captain or pilot capable, and has he the
confidence of the passengers and the crew
The same great questions to be considered
by the people with reference to the State,
which is often likened to a ship, ought to be
equally as well weighed. Is the Governor
capable ? Has he the confidence ol the peo
ple? And if those questions are vital ones
when applied to a ship freighted with some
scores of human beings, and with property
perhaps less than a million dollars in value
how doubly vital and important do those
same questions appear when applied to our
lives and liberty, the vt r lfare of more than
a million of human beings, composed in
part of the widows and orphans of soldiers
suddenly cast upon the charity of the State
and property valued at hundreds of millions
more or less to be affected by legislative ac
tion, with all of which the great ship of
State is entrusted, and over all of which the
Governor possess such vast control
thy of every favor, and from that time to
the present, he has given us every assistance
in his power, as chief magistrate.”
He then specifies some of the acts referred
to, rendering the company material and in
dispensable assistance, and adds:
“For these repeated acts of kindness on
the part of both governments, I trust that I
feel proper gratitude, and I would be glad
to unite with you iu giving suitable expres
sion thereto.”
That the company concurred with their
President will appear from the fact that at
they unanimously passed a resolution of
thanks to Gov. Brown.
Up to the recent interruption of transport
tation through East Tennessee, these com
panies were regularly making for transpor
tation to Georgia, as much as 800 bushels of
salt per day to bo sold and distributed at
cost. This is 4,800 bushels per week, and
19,200 bushels per month. By extending
the calculation through the period duiing
which they have operated, you will readily
perceive that in a portion of them, Governor
Brown assisted no small portion of the peo
ple of Georgia. Those who know the histo
ry of these companies know that the hearts
of thousands of the people of Georgia. have
been made glad through their agency. Not
only stockholders who originally orga
nized the capital, but fanvliesof soldiers, and
widows, who would otherwise have suffered.
Aud when the passions of the hour which
have induced too many to oppose our pres
ent Chief Magistrate shall have passed away,
and unprejudiced history comes to make up
her impartial record of this revoution, the
Governor’s agency in supplying the people
with salt will be remembered along with
many other good deeds, in behalf of our be
loved State, in this her day ol bitter trial.

THE COLUMBUS SUN. SALT FOR THE PEO
PLE, GOV. BROWN-
Mr. Editor :
I have observed that a very unkind insin
uation has been dropped out in one of the
Columbus newspapers, against Gov. Brown
in relation to the salt made for the supply of
indigent families, by the State, at Saltville,
Ya The editor of the Columbus Times and
you have effectually replied to this article
and covered the writer with shame, by
showing that thousands have received solid
relief from these works, which the Governor
so sagaciously located, and which have been
so well managed.
Since, however, the Governor has been
thus wantonly attacked, it is but justice to
him to call attention to the assistance he has
extended to the companies .which have been
engaged at Saltville in making salt for sup
ply to the people of Georgia at cost. I refer
to the Planters’ Salt Manufacturing Compa
ny and the Georgia Salt Manufacturing Co.
His greet practical mind at once grasped the
scope of these good enterprises, and through
out the many difficulties they have encoun
tered, he has actively and wisely, and with
untiring industry, co-operated with the offi
cers of these companies in their work. The
President of the Planters Co. bears tesliino-
mony to this in his Annual Report to the
Stockholders, dated June 8,1863, as follows:
After referring gratefully to the assistance
extended to his work by the Confederate
Government, he says:
“ Though originating in private enterprise
and individul patriotism, so_soon as the ex
istence of the company and its objects were
brought to the knowledge of the Governor
of Georgia, he adopted the work as one wor-
EXPEDITION TO TEXAS.
Under date of New Orleans, Sept. 1 a cor
respondent of the Chicago Times writes:
Many sailing vessels have been chartered,
troops are hurriedly put on board, troops at
Ship Island have been sent, others are fol
lowing—for the Rio Grande. The;Monroc
doctrine will find numerous advocates at
Brownsville in less than three days ! Na
poleon will find that he is not to remain un
disturbed. The city is rife with rumors that
the Star Spangled Banner will soon wave
in triumph over the Mexican city of Meta-
moras. This latter place is almost immedi
ately opposite Brownsville.
MISCELLANEOUS.
A dispatch from Memphis says that a
fearful riot occurred in Mobile on the 4th
instant. A party of soldiers’ wives, to the
number of six hundred, paraded the city
with exciting mottoes on their banners,
such as “ Bread or Peace.” The soldiers of
fered no opposition to the display; but in
some instances the citizens attempted to ar
rest the progress of tho procession. (This
ia doubtless a Yankee fabrication.)
Secretary Seward’s circular of 12th Au
gust was published in the English journals
on the 2d of Sept.
A Washington tolegram says it is learned
from the best of sources that advices of an
entirely trustworthy character have been re
ceived here to the effect that M. Chevalier’s
pamphlet advocating recognition of the
rebels by Franc*, was not inspired, as has
been intimated by the Emperor.
Persons who have recently visited the
fleet doing duty off the coasts ot Virginia
'and North Carolina represent the unanimity
of sentiment among the officers and men in
favor of a war with England as remarka
ble. The most intense feeling prevails on
this topie.
Nightly serenades by the military bands
in Washington without the permission of
the military commander have been prohibi
ted.
The censorship of the press in Washing
ton continued with its accustomed particu
larity. Even common matters in no man
ner connected with military operations have
to receive the approval of the official super
visor.
News has been received at Port au Prince
from Port au Platt to the 6th September,
that two Spanish frigates had bombarded
the latter city, and had completely destroy
ed it, killing a large number of the inhabi
tants.
The New York gold market has been ex
cited by rumors of French intervention.—
Gold advanced to 133 on Tuesday. The
quotations Wednesday were 131£ ; tone of
market strong and excited. Virginia sixes

DESCRIPTION OF THE REBEL RAMS.
From the Manchester Examiner Aug. 31:
One of the two iron steam rams built by
Messrs. Laird at Berkenhead war launched
at their works on Saturday, August 20, in
the presence of a large crowd ot spectators,
who were freely admitted into the yard.
The vessel launched Saturday was chris -
tendd the El Monasser, or Vitcory; her con
sort, launched a few weeks ago, being nam
ed the El Tousson. When launched, both
vessels bore the English flag astern and the
French flag amidships. ;
Each are 230 feet long, 42 beam and 19
feet deep. Their measurement is 1,850 tons,
and their engines are 350 horse power.—
They are plated with four and a-balf inch
iron ou a teak backing of great thickness,
bolted ou to Ihe frame of the thi, which sup
ports the inner shell.
The decks are also iron plated, and the
iron bulwarks are hinged at the lower edge,
so as to be thrown down in action. Each
ram ” is pierced for six guns on each side,
and they are fitted on the deck with large
cupola towers upon Capt. Cole’s plan, with
2 guns to each cupola. Their bows project
ed under water so as to form a “ram.” The
iron plates are so beautifully planned and
fitted that it is almost impossible .to tell
whether the vessels are plated or nat.
The cupolas are fore and aft the engine
house, and have an extreme range nearly
fore and aft the vessel. Each ram is bark
rigged, having the lower masts aud yards of
trou. When launched the El Monasser was
_ in a cora-
g limentary manner of the lire of Haskell.
le describes the occasional shells thrown by
that battery as breaking generally just above
1 he parapets of the hostile forte. Wo men
tion this with no intention ot instituting a
comparison between the fire ot Haskell and
that of other batteries, but simply because
we chanced to hear that fire made a subject
of special comment.
There was no change ia the fleet until
Sunday afternoon, when a monitor was tow
ed by a steamer outside of the bar, and
thence southward in the direction ot Fort
Royal. The cause of her departure is a mere
matter ot conjecture.
The Ironsides is slill in her old position,
abreast of Battery Wagner. Oa Saturday
she was flying, besides iho United States
Union, two blue and white flags at her stern.

SURRENDER OF C OMB ERL AND GaI*.—The
Lynchburg “Virginian” gives the follow
ing particulars of this disgraceful affair :
Au officer who was at the Cumberland
Gap, in the capacity of Lt.-Colonel, was in
this city yesterday, and reports the follow
ing : He is well known to us, is a Virgini uv,
and his statement may be relied, upon, fie
says that we had 1,S09 men, were very
strongly intrenched, and had plenty of gnus
and ammunition. When the enemy, num
bering about six regiments, as is believed,
commanded our forces to surrender. Gen.
Frazier held a couucil of officers, ami it was
unanimously determined that the place
should be held to the last extremity. The
officers then took their positions; but it was
soon rumored that a Kentucky regiment had
thrown down their arms. The officer in
quostion going to make some inquiry upon
the subject, observed a white flag flying, and
interrogating Gen. Frazier as to what it
meant, the latter replied: “Tell Gen. Jones
that I have gone up the spout.” The Colo
nel, with three hundred of bis men, then re
tired unmolested.
He considers the surrender of Cumberland
Gap the most disgraceful event of the war
aud so it is. Fazier, we believe, is a Ten
nessecan, and betrayed his trust, or such
position would never have been yielded
without so much as firing a gun. It is high
time that some General were sbot.
In Frankfort it is thought that if the pi*,
gress of the Princess does not prove satis
factory to the German people, revolution will
follow.
