Got, Brown’s Address io I lie People of
Georgia.
[From the Augusta Tr:n(§cripf, Ali.j
We give an abstract of this important docu
ment, which is too long to publish in full. For
nearly eight years Gov. Brown has presided
over the fortunes of the State, and of late
under circumstances involving the most bur
densome toils and responsibilities. At the
time he was arrested, he hud already been
paroled. This fact being brought to the no
tice of the government, he was released. He
is one of tiie excepted from the Amnesty
Proclamation. »
The ex-Governor regards emancipation as a
necessity against which the South would
vainly contend ; and advises the people to
organize a just sy.-tem of labour —to divide
the crops with the labourers or give them 4
adequate wages. This is the course he will
himself pursue.
The North, he thinks, will act with justice and
liberality, so soon as slavery shall have been
given up, aud the passions excited by the as
sassination of President Lincoln have had
time to subside. Harmony of feeling will
give us new inlluence abroad, and is encour
aged by the spirit of the Executive who fa
vours popular government #antl the right of
the States to manage their own internal af
fairs.
To all who are permitted, he recommends
the taking of the oatii of allegiance. It will
secure to the masses the right of representa
tion by our best and wisest nu n. And con
scientious scruples should not debar auy from
availing themselves of tins privilege, lor we
are not called upon to decide on the consti
tutionality of emancipation, but simply to
submit to the decision of the Government.
Those who oppose this course should seek
for a fioipe elsewhere.

The Ponrih of July in Atlanta.
[from tlio Atlanta lutelligeuc'.T.]
By the military stationed in this city arid
its vicinity, the day that gave birth to what

<‘uini>letloii of the Reconstruction oj the
••Western &. Atlantic Railroad.”
[Frum ttie Atlanta In •‘lligencer, July 6.J
We have been favored with a penis,il anil
copy of tiie following letter addressed by
Brig. Gen. Winslow to the President ot a
meeting held in Atlanta on the 4th inst., an
nouncing the completion, or reconstruction
of ihe “Western & Atlantic Railroad,” that
greet connecting link in the long lines of sim
ilar work? of internal improvement, connec
ting the South with the North, and which
restores direct communication between the
two sections
The work alluded to was originally con
structed at a cost of $5,000,000, by the State,
and while it proved-for many years a link in
the line of railroads North and South, oh ex
ceeding value to them all, it proved iuesti
tnable iu its value to Georgia in the develop
ment of her resources, and lor many years
under ex-Governor Brown’s judicious man
agement. was a source through which large
revenues were obtained by the State. We
therefore congratulate the whole country up
on its reconstruction. To General YY inslow
much credit is due for the speedy restoration
to use of this great work. With this officer,
we do also “trust that the people of Atlanta,
whose interests are so closely connected with
those of its railroads, will always evidence a
spirit of conciliation in dealing with the ques
tions of the past,.’’ This we trust, will be the
spirit of our whole people It is what duty
demands, aud what patriotism, in the true
meaning of the word requires.
Below, the reader will find Gen. Winslow’s
very appropriate letter to the President of
the meeting:
H EADQ’fes Ist Brigade IrtrDivisiOs, )
Car. Corps, Mil. Div. of Miss., >
Atlanta, Ga., July 4, 1364.)
To the President Patriotic Meeting ,
Atlanta, Georgia :
Dear S.r: —I take pleasute in announcing
through you, the completion of the Western
& Atlantic Railroad, aud thereby the restora
tion of direct cummuuicetion with the North
ern States.
The reconstruction of this line of Railroad
should be regarded with much satisfaction by
all citizens of Georgia; that it has been done
at the expense of the United States Govern
ment, should be received as an evidence of
the good will and kindly interest of the au
thorities at Washington in the weifare and
prosperity of all its iriends, Sou tit as well as
North; and that the track should be finished
on this day, the anniversary of one so glori
ous in our country’s history, may be,received
as an augury of a united and happy future
for all our lately disturbed country.
I trust the people of Atlanta, whose inter
ests are so closely connected with those of
it? Railroads, will always evidence a spirit of
conciliation in dealing with the questions of
the past, and remember that the United States
Government, good as it is great, requires of
them unhesitating allegiance aud support.
With much respect,
I have the Honor to be,
Your obedient servant,

small rooms, which renders recovery ituprob-'

there are fifty of tfiese miserable' wretches,

bringing disease of every character among
them. Unless there are steps taken soon to
relieve them, they will die Ly scores. Little

The Old Southern Le aders. —Some people
are afraid that the old political leaders iu the
South will yet again attain power. It is the
last thing in the world like to occur. They
and their character were the product of a
peculiar organization of Southern society
and institutions, which have passed away,
never again to return. It would be utterly
impossible for them to exist in their old
character and relationship, in the new order of
things. The new era will assuredly have its
new men. Even were the old leaders to try to
adapt themselves to the altered stated affairs
they would fail ol success ; for the great
body of the people iu the South have com
pletely lost confidence iuthem. Their theories
have all been exploded, their predictions
Falsified and their windy brag made ridicu
lous ; and their false theories, promises,
prophesies and brag can never be forgotten
iu the South, until the bones of the myriads
who have fallen victims to their falsities shall
have mouldered. In no event will this gen
eration see Toombs, Wise, Wigfall, Rhett,
Benjamin & Cos., controlling the South and
domineering the nation.—A’. Y. Times.
