Messrs. Editors : I am pleased to see the name of Col. Daniel S. Printup, of the Forty- Second Senatorial District as a candidate for the Senate. Col. Printup represented Floyd county in the Senate last session of the Legislature, and the writer of this article can bear testimony to his ability as a legislator and the faithful man ner in which lie guarded the interests of his con stituents. Col. Printup was a member of the Judiciary Committee; also Chairman of the Committee on Finance, two of the most impor tant Committees of the General Assembly. He was also author of the bill Introducing Direct Trade bet ween Europe and the Southern States. If elected, his constituents will have reason to be proud of one of the most able, faithful and industrious members of the next Senate. WITNESS. ♦ ♦ Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 10, 1861.

Gov. Brown and the Taking of Fort Pu luski. The Milledgeville ‘Union’ of Tuesday last has an editorial, in which the following is giv en among other “ reasons why Gov. Brown should be re elected “ 5. Before Fort Pulaski had been occupied by Federal troops, and before Georgia had ac ted Gov. Brown risked everything and boldly seized the Fort and occupied it by Georgia troops. This timely act has kept the foot of the invader of£ the soil of Georgia.* In the adjoining State of South Carolina, on one side, the Federal troops got possession of Fort Sumter, and it cost a battle and the expendi ture of over a million of dollars to get it back. In the State of Florida, on the other side, the Federal troops got possession of Fort Pick ens, and it has taken nearly ten thousand men to guard them, and has cost but little short of five millions of dollars, and we are not yet in possession of the Fort, while in Georgia half a regiment in Fort Pulaski holds it quiet ly and defies Lincoln’s troops to attempt to enter. The Governor’s worst enemies are com pelled to admit that Georgia is indebted to him alone for her present prou 1 position in this respect, and that Lincoln’s troops would now, in all probability be in the Fort, and a large army of our forces lying around it at an im mense cost, with a prospect of heavy loss of life in retaking it, but for this bold, decided, fearless action.” While we have no disposition to disparage Gov. Brown, nor in the slightest degree to de tract from his just merits, we are unwilling that those who are endeavoring, regardless of the claims of others or the wishes of the peo ple, to give a life-estate in the Gubernatorial office, shall claim for him credit to which he is not entitled. Gov Brown is not entitled to the credit of having “risked every thing anti boldly seized the Fort;” nor is Georgia “ in debted to him alone for her present and proud position in this respect,” as the ‘Union’ would have its readers believe. The most that can be claimed for him in connection with that im portant event, the first overt act of Southern resistance, is that he gave his assent, and fin ally his official sanction, to a step which had already been determined on by the citizens of Savannah, and which he knew would be taken even without his authority or co operation. Immediately on the news reaching this city that Major Anderson had evacuated Ft. Moul trie and occupied Sumter, the importance of occupying Fort Pulaski before a Federal gar rison could be thrown into it, became the theme of conversation among our citizens.— Gov.. Brown was, we believe, written to more than once on the subject. No steps being ta ken towards the occupancy of the Fort, a num ber of public spirited and patriotic citizens held a private meeting, at which it was delib erately determined io take possession of Fort Pulaski and hold it. Volunteers for the pur pose were soon enrolled, and a sufficient sum of money raised by individual subscription to purchase provisions, munitions, and provide transportation, and the expedition was to start as soon as the necessary preparation could be made. In the meantime it was deemed advis able to inform Gov. Brown of what had been determined on, and to ask him to give his of ficial sanction to the step. This was accord ingly done. Some eight or ten days elapsed, and the projectois of the movement were be coming impatient, when Gov. Brown visited the city. Upon consultation, and finding our citizens were resolved on taking possession of the Fort as a measure of self protection, the Governor consented to sanction the movement and gave orders to Colonel Lawton to take po session of the Fortress in the name of the State. Such is the true history of the capture of Fort Pulaski and Gov. Brown’s connection with the affair. That regarded his acquies cence at the time as a concession to the de termined spirit of our people, rather than as an act of hostility and defiance to the United Spates Government, is shown by his proclama tion the day after the capture of Fort Pulas ki, in which be stated, much to the chagrin of some who had participated in the move ment, that he had authorized the occupancy of the Fort by troops of the State to prevent it being taken possession of by the mob.— Savannah News, Aug. 31. A Move In the Right Direction. The Young Men’s Christian Association of this city, (with the co operation of similar institutions throughout the Southern Confed eracy,) have opened a depot on Main street, just above Col. Blair’s store, for the reception of all articles sent here for the relief of the wounded and sick soldiers. By reference to the advertisement of their committee, the pub lic will perceive that all articles sent to their care will be properly distributed and will reach, without delay, those for whom they are intended. This committee will attend to re ceiving articles sent from any part of our Con federacy, and inasmuch as organizations are being formed in every part of Virginia and the other States for the purpose of minister ing to the wants of those who have been strick en down while defending our homes and al tars, we are assured that the donations of our friends could not reach the various hospitals sooner or with more safety than through the agency of the committee. Throughout the bread limits of our beloved country, every heart is beating with sympathy for our sick and wounded soldiery, and the anxious inquiry every where exists, “How can I do them good : how can I relievo their suf ferings and supply their wants ?” The an swer is at hand : Let every church, commun ity and association in the South get together all of the old clothing—such as shirts, drawers, towels, handkerchiefs, sheets, pillow cases, blankets, bed-ticks, &c_, &c , and buy materials and make them up. and forward at once, “To the Army Committee of the Young Men's Christian Association, Richmond.” and they will surely reach their destination, and the prayer of the sufferer will bless the gen erous giver. In addition to clothing, we would suggest the donation of wines, jellies, and other delicacies suitable for the sick ; and those who cannot send the above named arti cles, can send their contributions in money, whinh will be judiciously expended. Mr. Ro ger Martin, a well known gentleman of this city* will be always at the depot to give his personal supervision to the whole matter. The committee will promptly acknowledge the receipt of moneys and other contributions, and at the proper time advise the public of the good accomplished through their organi zation. Let the people everywhere avail themselves of this opportunity to benefit and bless those in whom they feel such deep and abiding interest —Richmond Dispatch. Thk Naw Coxstitvtiox —Gov. Brown has issued his proclatuai ion, anuouncing that at I the recent election there were 11.499 votes cast 1 for Ratification, and 10,704 for No Ratifica tion-—the Constitution “is adopted and rati fied by the people of the State of Georgia, and ia now the Constitution of said State.” No election was held in the counties of Cam den, Chattahoochee.

Milledgeville, Sept. lE—Hon. Eugenius A. Nisbet, of Bibb county, was nominated for Governor to day, unanimously, and by accla mation. An Electorial Ticket for President and Vice-President was also nominated. Hon. David Irwin, of Cobb, and Loyd, of Chatham, being the Electors for the State at large. The Convention has adjourned sinedie. 8. Baltimore, Sept. 10.—Gen. Dix has forbid den the Mayor to pay the salaries of the old (regular) police. The Mayor will obey the or der under protest. Rolla, Sept. 10.—Some prisoners were sent to St. Louis this morning. They were captur ed in skirmishes. Two of the captives had McKinstry’s passes in their pockets. Gov. Jackson left Springfield on Sunday night to join the State forces. Syracuse, N. Y.,Sept. 10.—The People’s Un ion Convention is in session. Thomas G. Al verd is the temporary Chairman. Washineton, Sept. 10.—There is very great activity at the Navy Yard. The New York has arrived from Bardoes.— She reports the Confederate privateer Sumter there, short of coal, and finds difficulty in sup plying herself. Frankfort, Ky., September 10.—The States Rights Convention is in session in the cham ber of the House of Representatives. The Sen ate is not in session. Montreal, Sept. 11.—The steamship North Briton has arrived from Liverpool. Her news has, however, been anticipated by the Africa. Lord Palmerston has been installed Warden of the Cinqueports. In his speech, he alluded to the battle of Bull Run as an evidence of the powerlessness of brave but undisciplined men against an organized enemy. TheLonden Times concludes its American article by saying, the subjugation of the South is hopeless. Russell, the Times’ American correspondent, in his latest letters, says that the issue is nar rowing down to the question of slaveiy or ab olitionism. He thinks that President Lincoln will soon declare all the slaves within the lim its of the United States free. Sixteen thousand bales of cotton has been purchased by leading houses in Liverpool, for shipment to America. Louisville, September 11.—Sam Chapin, of Vicksburg, is accused of being a Captain of Home Guard. There was a tremendous rain last night. Except the single item relating to the activ ity at the Navy Yard, nothing has been re ceived here from Washington since Monday noon. Richmond, Sept. 11.—Passengers have arriv ed to-day from all the important Confederate camps, bringing nothing of interest. Great activity prevails in all the Departments here. The resources of the Government are apparently unlimited. The Hospital accommodations have been vastly enlarged and improved, many of which are sustained by State and individual contri butions. There is still considerable sickness; but of a type which yields most readily to good nursing and medical treatment. The mortality is comparatively slight. A Card. To the Voters of Cobb, Fulton and Clay ton Counties : As the time for the election of members to the State Legislature approaches, and there seems to be no one enough interest ed in the subject to bring it positively before the public—nearly all eyes being attracted to wards the battlefield—and being physically un able to enter upon the active duties of the sol dier, and being further unwilling to allow the great events of the present struggle to pass by without taking some humble part therein, I have concluded that the demands of patriotism would, in some degree, be subserved by volun teering my services for the humbler duties of civil life, and, therefore, place my name before you as a candidate for Senator of the district composed of the counties of Cobb, Fulton and Clayton.
