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. ♦ i» 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 Siegk.—Two bright, blue, October looking days have passed without a single incident ot interest The enemy, m spite ol the slow but continuous fire maintained by onr batteries, still pursues his work on Mor ris Island, laboring as if it was hispurposo to convert it into a Gibraltar.

Baltimore papers of the 17th inst. have been received. They contain nothing of in terest Irom the seat of war ia Tennessee, Northern Georgia or Virginia, aud nothing new from Charleston. The following is a summary ot the general news: WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS SUSPENDED. Lincoln has issued a proclamation sus pending throughout the United States the writ of habeas corpus iu cases military, naval or civil, where officers of the United States hold persons under their command or in their custody, either as prisoners of war, spies, or aiders or abettors of the enemy, or of officers, soldiers, or seamen enrolled, drafted, or mustered, or enlisted in or be longing to the land or naval forces of the United States, or as deserters therefrom, or otherwise amenable to law, or the rules and articles of war, &c., or for resisting a draft, or for any other offense against the military and naval service. The Griffin Light Guards.—We re gret to learn that this fine Company, under command of Capt. Andrews, was badly cut up, the Captain himself being among the slain. In making our correction of our spe cial correspondent’s dispatch relative to the Yankee falling back upon Chattanooga, we forgot that the telegram was dated the 21st. Our correspondent was correct; on that day iy We are pleased to see that Hon. John W. Lewis has consented to become a candi date for the Senate of Georgia, for the 42nd Senatorial District. We do not know who Dr. Lewis’ opponent will be, or whether lit wilt have any; but we knofw that his labors would be highly useful iu the Senate, if he should be elected. He would prove an or nament and a tower of strength to that body. the enemy was Idling back nooga. upon Chatta [communicated.] 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.

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. Char. Mer. 21 si int. 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.
