Skt IA2£D X. WHITAKER, FBOPBISTOB. I o nx II . 8TE b'dhob, GLE A. E. IH AR8HALL, ASSOCIATE kditob and bbpobteb ATLANTA, G-EORGHA. Toeslay Morning; October 13, 1863 THE ELECTION FOR GOVERNOR A» yet we have received but meagre ac counts of the election that took place last Wednesday in this State for Governor. We have, however, received intelligence suffi cient to warrant the belief that Governor Brown is elected over both his opponents, not though by as large a majoi ity as we hop ed lit would be. The vote for Mr. Hill has surprised us, and the vjle for Mr. Furlow is about as we expected it would be. Iu re gard to the vote for Mr. Hill, a cotempcra- ry, the “ Sumter Republican ” remarks that it “is quite significant, and clearly indicates the complete organise Uion of the old co-op eration party. The secessionists of tee county, (we will aid, the State,) were -divid ed between Major Furrow and Governor Brown, neither of whom, we venture to say } received the vote of a co-operationist. Ai any rate, we venture the assertion that no man who opposed the war before its inaugu ration, and would now see it settled upon any other basis than our complete independ ence, voted for Major Furlow.” The “lie publican” might have added here, with equal truth, or for Governor Brown; but wo must not digress. That paper goes on to say- “ the issue then lias been made, and a party organized who.se purpose is to proscribe men who were in favor of the secession of Georgia from the hated Union with a 1 ace who are now seeking to subjugate and de stroy us. VVe iial hoped that such would not be the c ise. As it has been made, how-„ ever, let the responsibility rest wbeie it be longs; let it bo known who has refused to bury the tomahawk and scalping-knife of political animosity; or if it were ever buried, who has exhumed it and are striving to dis tract the councils of a free people engaged in a death struggle for liberty.” At this point in our State, it required but little sagacity, a few days before the election, to arrive at the conclusion which our cotem- porary at Americas has now come to. With but few exceptions indeed, the old co-opera tion party of the State is now at war upon the original secessionists, its prominent lea der, Mr. B. II. Hill, being again in the lead. Forewarned, we would have been forearmed for such a c mtlict, a nd the result would have been different iu this—there would have been no conflict between Mr. Furlow’s friends and those of Gov. Brown. The game, however, that has been played so se cretly and so warily, has not been, thanks to the patriotism of the people of Georgia and Georgians in the army, a successful one; and it now only remains for that over whelming majority of our people, in whose power it is to crush down the leaders of such an organization, to unite and resolutely do so at the polls, in ail f uture elections. From the returns received of the Govcr nor’s election, which we publish in our first . edition of this issue, it will be seen that Gov ernor Brown leads his two opponents 5,17 votes. It may be proper for us here to state, that as in Cherokee, so it is in many other •ounties of our State—the “stay-at-Jumss,' the“co-operationists,” and “croakers," giving majorities for Mr. Hill, while their sons,and brothers, and fathers, constituting the ma jority, were voting lor Brown or Furlow in the army. * Furlow, - - - 40 Hill, - - - 28. 37th ga. regiment.

In most cases the army vote determines who are elected, and w r e are truly gratified that it has to do so.

Under this state of things our readers, we trust, will patiently wait for election news. ELECTION FOE GOVERNOR. COUNTIES. BROWN. FURLOW.

Some days ago, we published the follow iug “ anecdote,” which was communicated to us by a highly respectable gentleman, os it was related to him when on a visit recent ly, to Geu. Bragg’s army: Application for leave of absence in Gen. W. H. T. Walker’s division of Gen. Hill’s corps. Walker endorsed the application “disapproved, but respectfully forwarded to headquarters of Gen. 1). H. Hill.” Geu. Hill endorsed it “ approved, upon the ground that the brave men of the army should be permitted to go home whenever practicable ; otherwise all the children to be born during the war and the usual period afterwards will be the offspring of the cow ards at home who have substitutes and are otherwise exempt” Gen. Walker, upon the return of the application, cheerfully with drew his disapproval and permitted the brave soldier to go home. We are now assured by Gen. Walker that there is a mistake in regard to the use of Gen. Walker's name in connection with the afore said incident, which we are certain our correspondent will, as wo do, regret—Gen. Walker not being a party at all to the inci- lent as related. We publish Gen. Walker’s note to us: Iu Camps, near Chattanooga,) - Oct. 9, 1803. j To Editor of the Atlanta Intelligencer: Sir—Having seen iu your paper the fol lowing piece, allow me, in the most positive and unequivocal manner, to deny that my name was ever connected, directly, or indi rectly, with the case in point. Such a pa per was never submitted to me and the sen timents could never by any possibility meet with mv approbation. Very respectfully, Your obe’t servant, . W. H. T. WALKER. 2SP~Since penning the foregoing, we are informed by thebest authority that the charge in the Raleigh Progress of Gen. Benning be ing privy to the sackmg of. the Standard of fice is a base falsehood, as that gentleman was sleeping when the act took place.—At lanta Intelligencer. Gen. Benning was ia Raleigh that night, and on the street not more than an hour be fore the mob took place. Will he say on his honor, over his own name, that he did not have any reason to apprehend teat our offleo would be assailed that by a por tion of his troops? And if he really entertained this apprehension, was it not his duty to see that no such thing was done? A police officer was sent to him at the depot to inform him of the out rage by a portion of his troops, but the offi cer was repulsed and not allowed to see him —R Heigh Sta ndard. What we asserted above we repeat, that the assertion of Gen. Benning’s knowing anything of his men intending to sack the Standard office is a base falsehood, and we have the assurance of the Geneial himself to tnat effect, and furthermore, that the sacking of the Standard office was done by a party of North Carolinians, who had been detailed from Gen. Lee’s army to arrest deserters, and who seduced the Geor gians into joining them. Of this the Gen eral was not aware until after the sacking was committed, and the soldiers had return, ed to the errs; wlieu-the North Carolinians, in the presence and hearing of the General, boasted of what they had done. This is the plain and unvarnished story of the affair as it came to Gen. Benning’s knowledge,and we do not deem it necessary for that gentle man to publish any card “over his own name" to satisfy the Rdeign Standard or “any other man.” A CARD OF THANKS. Griffin, Ga., Oct. 10,1863. Mr. E li'or.—Permit us to acknowledge through your columns the following hand some donations, with the hope that others may follow the laudable example: From J. C. & W. D. Thompson, of Pike county, forty bushels of meal, for the benefit of indigent soldiers’ families In this city. From Dr. W. H. Prichard, of this city, two bbl?. of molasses. From Col. Felix Price, of Butts county, one bbl. of molasses and one quarter of fine beef, donated to the hospitals located in this city. C. H. JOHNSON, Geu. Ag’t of Soldiers Rel’f Society. 8. J. HAY, Purchasing Agent C. S. A. The New York Courier des Etats Unis gives a positive and apparently authoritative denial to the rumor of the intention of Na poleon to recogniz3 the Confederacy, RETICENCE-ARMY MATTERS AND THE PRESS. Editors Intelligencer: In your issue of to-day I notice a commu nication under the caption of “Reticence,” with a few introductory remarks calling the attention of your cotemporaries of the press to the subject matter. As the relations be tween the army and the press are of a pecu liar and delicate nature, I beg leave to tres pass on your columns for the purpose of presenting n few remarks on the subject. . No one can recognise more frefly or fully than I do, the necessity of withholding from publication information that may give aid or comfort to the common enemy; and it is not that I take issue with the gentleman who calls upon the press to be reticent on that point, but to assist in pointing out the prac tical way of attaining the general wish. It is a matter of record since printing first became an art, that no power is more diffi cult to control than that of the pre$3, and it has ever eluded all direct attempts to coerce it. With this recorded experience, we are in more danger of failing in the attainment of the common desire, by the adoption of inadequate mealls, than from the wan t of a right disposition on the part of the editorial profession. My official relations with every daily jour nal in the Southern Confederacy have im pressed me with the conviction that there is not one among them whose editors are not animated by the same desire to shield Gur holy cause. In this state of things, the comtemplation of measures of a suppressive or coercive character, is not only unnecessary, but is unworthy of a free people; a free govern ment and a free press. Yet I am pained to say that my expeiience in practice, has im pressed me with the conviction, that gentle men are not wanting who would resort to these unworthy means, if the opportunity were afforded them. It is to enable all to avoid these, that I trespass now upon your space, for the purpose of making a fe\V sug gestions as to the practical manner of attain ing the common wish. In one word, this will be best found iu co operation between commanders and the agents of the Press. The Fress of the Con federate States presents a spectacle which has never before been witnessed iu any country, or at any time. It has given to its self an organized form, with a representative government, and voluntarily subjected its self to rules and regulations for the common good. It has appointed its own agents and reporters at every scene of general interest, and has placed these under strict supci vision and control That it may be seen how iden tical are the views of the Press Association with those of the writer, whose counsel you recommend to your cotemporaricI cite here the 7th clause of the code of instruc tions to Press reporters, and the rec o rumen dations of “ In for the War.” The latter says: The names of general officers; allusions to corps, divisions and brigades.; airival of troops; transfer of tbe same,their position, strength and composition, movements of cavalry. In short, whatever would interest us in regard to the Yankees will of course interest them ia regard to us, and should be suppressed. Seventh clause ol ; nstntcsions to Press Reporters: The military exigencies of the country re quire that the greatest caution shall be ex ercised in reporting the movements of troops, or of generals commanding, and on these points the wishes and views of the com manding general, or his adjutant general, must be consulted and.respected As a gen eral thing, it is better never to report changes of position of on*- forces or of com mander?. Here it is seen that the Press has present ed the practical means for doing what “Iu for the War” recommends should be done. It has voluntarily 'placed its news reports of army matters, under stiict supervision by the commanders respectively, and if those would come to entertain a more just view than is held by some of them, of their rela tions to the Press, and place themselves more m accord with its representatives and agents words of caution as to “Reticence” would be found to be entirely unnecessary. I do not hesitate to say.that wherever tnis accord does exist, a31 a n hv>ny to acknowl edge it does in many of the military depart ments, the commanders have seldom i,‘ ever found reason to complain of the Press. The authorized telegraphic reports of the Press Association, transmitted simultaneously to every Daily journal in the Confederacy, have superseded and rendered stale and unprofit able news correspondence through other channels relative to army matters. - It is on ly where these authorized news reports have not been permitted that a field has been op ened for other, and perhaps injudicious, la bors. As the complement, therefore, to the re commendations of your eorrrspmdeaL to the Press, will you permit me to recall to mili tary commanders, and officials generally, the fact that the Press has presented to them the best, and in truf U the only p actical, way to secure reticence in matters that should not be presented to the public eye. The people do not desire the publication of improper news; the press does not wish to see it in its columns; and a moderate degree of offi cial and confidential intercourse between Commanders and the representatives of the Press, will do more to secure the universally desired end, than any other measure that can be adopted. Respectfully, Yours, J. S. THRASHER, Superintendent Press Association. Atlanta, October 10,1803. PUBLIC MEETING IN GREENSBORO. At a meeting of the citizens of Greens boro and the county <>f Green, for the pur pose of expressing their sympathy and prof fering assistance to the wounded soldiers of the Confederate Army, Major George Q. Dawson was called to the chair, ana P. Clayton, Esq., requested to act as Secretary. The object of the meeting having been ex plained by the Chairman, Col. Y. P. King, offered the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted: The citizens of Green county are deeply pained to learn that a number of our gallant soldiers were wounded at the late battle of Chickamauga. in the northwestern portion of oar State, and that the number thus wounded are too numerous to find hospital accommodation! at any one place: Resolved, That we are willing to do all m our power to alleviate the sufferings of those who have bared their bosoms and shed their blood in defence of our rights. Resolved, That this meeting do hereby tender our city to the authorities of Atlanta as a suitable place to establish a temporary hospital for the accommodation of our wounded and suffering soldiers. Resolved, That it is the sense of this meet ing that we can provide, with the co-opera tion of the citizens of the county, suitable accommodation for 150 of our wounded soldiers, whose gallantry challenges our highest admiration, and whose sufferings en list our warmest sympathies. Resolved, That there be appointed by the Chair a committee, to consist of three, to transmit a cony of the foregoing to the authorities at Atlanta. The above resolutions were yery appro priately supported by Y. P. King, W. J. Cotter and Wm. O. Chancy, Esq. In addition to the above, the following resolutions were adopted by the meeting: Resolved, That a Committee of sixteen, one from each district in the county, be ap pointed, whose duty it shall be to solicit sub scriptions for the purpose of supporting-the hospital for the wounded soldiers that may be established in the city of Greensboro’. Resolved, That a Committee, of five be ap pointed for selecting suitable buildings for' said hospital. Resolved, That the papers in the cities Atlanta and Augusta be requested to publish the proceedings of tbe meeting Signed G. O. DAWSON, Ch’n P. Clayton, Sec’y.

ON THE mu rtuucis vu mv — *—- v . the Capes, it then blowing hard from east northeast. The negro cook of the House man was killed by the raiders. It appears that he attempted to escape, jumping over board and swimming for his life; but un fortunately for the poor fellow, they fired upon him, and his courage failing, he re turned. They then shot him and threw him overboard, sinking him with a bar of pig iron. One of the captured crew piloted the vessels out. The crews were all taken, it is supposed, to Richmond. Capt. Townsend, assisted by his crew, got off the Schooner Alexander, and she was brought to the city. General News.—France.—Napoleon III. seldom hurries events; he waits till they ripen. The recognition of this Confederacy and its alliance with France are amongst those results whose maturity he has beeu watching, and it would seem, from several indications, that they arc nearly ready for the gathering. The Archduke Maximilian awaits the Mexican commissioners to an nounce his formal acceptance of the impe rial crown of Mexico; the Count Montho- lon, once French consul in Richmond, more lately Consul General at New York, goes out as first French minister; he has declared himself strongly in favor ol the recognition and allianoe. The Constitutionnel, which is a journal more than semi-official, has au elaborate article demonstrating the right of our Florida to be admitted into a French port for repairs; and further showing, by the authority of all maritime law, that our Confederate ships of war have a right to burn their prizes so long as the ports of oth er nations are not open to them for the sale of those prizes. The next step must be to open the ports of France for that purpose also; and then will come the day for our Virginia volunteer navy. The Journal des Debats, a Paris newapaper decidedly hostile to us, says there remains “ ho doubt” either in Paris or New Yorrk, “that the new gov ernment of Mexico will hasten to recognize the Confederacy, on condition that Mexico, in her turn, is also recognized.—Richmond Enquirer. Trans Mississippi.—A gentleman lately from Shreveport informs us that Gen. Price is falling back iu the direction of that town and that Steele and Blunt’s forces in Arkan sas are set down at 30,000. He also ttates that Gen. Richard Taylor is slowly retreating from Alexandria, in the direction of Shreveport, before Banks’ army. Banks advanced from New Orleans in three columns—one by way of the Opelousas Rails road and Brashear City; a second across Lake Charles; the third by the mouth of Red River. His entire force is estimated at 35,000. The enemy had fallen back from Monroe, and our people are in possession. The Yankee gunboat Rattler, two weeks ago, went to St. Joseph, La., on the Mis sissippi, and destroyed every boat and fiat in the neighborhood, except one belonging to some negroes, who were in the habit of trading with the Yankees. Our pickets fired on her from this side of the l iver, and she fired only one shell in reply. Shreveport is very strongly fortified—the negroes being still at work on the defences. Everything is quiet in Texas. It is re ported and currently believed that 35,000 French troops are now in Matamoras.—Mo bile Tribune. Lenses ana Manager, - W. II.

It id the belief that movements are about to take place on the Rapidan. It is not imprudent to say, as the news is already known to the enemy, that Gen.- Lee was crossing the Rapidan yesterday. Gen. Ewell began the movement. Meade was supposed to be retiring. »t is supposed by most that Meade will retire beyond the Rap pahannock before giving battle, if at ali. We shall have plenty of rumors now—one already afloat is, that the enemy are landing a force at the White House.—Rich. Sentinel, Qthinst. It is treason now at the North to wish for “ the Union as it was.” That article seems to be very far below par. Vice-President Hamlin, in a speech at Philadelphia last week, gave the views of the Adminis!ration on the subject:—Rich. Dispatch. Well, we have a class of men theic who very much want “ the Constitution as it is and the Union as it was.” {Laughter.] Have you got them here ? [Crie3 of “ Yes,” laughter anti cheers.] Well, sir, I have found them ali round. I am very sorry, indeed, that they cannot have it. [Laughter.] There is no possible way in which they can have it. Why, it is mere demagogueism; it is the merest clap-trap, it is nonsense, and not very good nonsense at tliab. [Laughter and cheers.] “The Union as it was!” That means to bring back the States in precisely the same condition they were in when the rebellion was inaugurated. How are you going to get Missouri back so? The people of that State have, unsolic ited and uninterfered with by any power, in augurated a system of measures for the emancipation of slaves. How are you go ing to get it back as it was ? These people want to have the Union as it was! And what are you going to do with that little State nestled in Western Virginia, formed by loyal men, which has adopted a series of measures to rid itself of slavery ? How arc you to get it back as it was, I should like to know ? [Cheers. J I know they mourn over it, and regret their inability to bring back the Union as it was. Now if there are any men in your goodly city of New York who have any tears do shed over such a result, I am half inclined to think they must be crocko- dile tears,—but if they are not, and you have got those *who have tears to shed tor “the Union as it was”—I think it would form a good subject for a sketch. Place in the fore ground a slave, with his manacles stricken off, clothed in tbe uniform of Uncle* Sam, and a musket ia his hands, to. sustain the Union, the glorious Stars and Stripes float ing over it he had; while in the remote back er mu ds and a modern Democrat,with large tears rolling down his cheeks, big as turnips, because he c mnot have the Union as it was. [Laughter and cheers.] And, if you can find an impressible Copperhead woman, I should paint her in the attitude of reaching him a crash towel to wipe away his tears. [Loud laughter and applause.] THE LATE RAID ON VE3SELS ON THE EASTER N SHORE OF VIRG INIA Capt Townsend, of the schooner David C. Foster, which arrived at New York on Thursday, gives the following account of the capture oi vessels in Watchaprigue Inlet, on the Eastern Shore of Virginia* a few days since: A party of rebels—twenty-five in number —acijng on information furnished them, as is supposed, by a Mr. Cobb, of Sands Shoal, made a sudden attack upon several small ve-sols, lying for the night in Watchaprigue Inle ., on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, cap turing five of them. These were the schooners Ireland, Davis, John J. House man, the Alexander, and the Govern ment schooner Alliance, the latter loaded with supplies to the value of $30,0CD. The raiders pulled into Hogg’s Island, but were pre- Gone to Grass.—The Yankee papers state that “ Brig. Gen. Robert Anderson, U. S. Army, has been ordered before the Army Retiring Board, and it is expected that he will be retired from active service, as since the bombardment, of Fort Sumter, in 1861, he has not been equal to the fatigue and ex citement incidental to service in the field.” OBITUARY. Sergeat John Ghent of the Cth Fla. Regimeit fell in the battle of Chicamanga, on tbe evening of tbe 19th of September. John, thou art gone to the f/sve, We will not deplore thee! No, we wlil not deplore thee, for thy pure brave fpirit now chants pe&ns of joy In that great borne where there Is no oppression, no sorrow, no dream of care. Re sleeps among onr conn try’s countless honored dead, the brave- est of the brave. He gave bis young life a sacrifice to his bleeding country. His patriotism was of that pure, high character that led him to enter the service when t e could honorably have stayed at home. But no! he gave up his parental home, bid adie to his kind mother and loving sister j, and bared that noble breast to tbe storm. Yes he felt the tyrant’s heel upon his native land, and with a proul shout of defiance, he leaped to arms and fonght as only the patriot can fight. No craven heart was his, and when the shock came he was ever at the breach among his comrades. He'was loved for his bravi tj and unwavering kindness. In him the sick found ever a kind and attentive nurse—the well a joyous company. We feel that these that die in-hh country’s defence die a 8 the righteous dieth, and when the trumpet of doom sound hia awakening, his triumphant spirit will wake to joy, to await the coming of those dear ones left behind. Moth, er, sisters and brothers treasure up the life of thy brave aonr and brother as a .golden example, and prepare to meet him to enjoy the happy fruition of bliss that awaits you..
