Candidates’ Cards.
Greene B. Haygood, Esq., as will be seen by
his Card, has announced himself a candidate for
the State Senate from Cobb, Fulton and Clayton
counties, and Jno. J. Thrasher, (“Cousin John,”)
and C. A. Pitts, Esqs., have announced their
candidacy for the House of Representatives from
Fylton county. So far, very good. Are there
no more patriots desiring seats in the Legisla
ture ? It is our business to advertise for all, and
as our charge is only five dollars (invariably in
advance,) we hope to “turn an honest penny”
by making numerous similar announcements.—
Send in your Cards, friends.
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.

SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY.
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.

plying herself.
Frankfort, Ky., September 10.—The States
Rights Convention is in session in the cham

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,

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. GREEN B. HAYGOOD.
