Camp near Fairfax C. H., ) Virginia, 3,186fc J Nly Fellow-Citizens of the Sth Congressional District of Georgia ; I trust you will not deem it improper in my addressing you briefly upon the subject of my candidacy to represent you in the next. Confederate Congress. A short time since, after mature deliberation, and upon the request of many of your fellow-citizens, I consented to the use of iny name for that high and important trust. I had previously receiv ed many assurances, inducing me to believe that if I would become a candidate there would be no opposition to my election. My friends insisted that, as my course upon the great question of Southern Rights had been approved and endorsed by the whole people of Georgia, and as my term in the old Con gress had been cut short by the prompt seces sion of our State, an election to the new Con gress was due me. Acting upon these repre sentations, and believing that a majority of the people of the District desired my services again as their Representative, I agreed to be come a candidate, with the distinct avowal of my determination not to hold the place longer than one term, as there were other gentlemen in the District whose friends desired to honor them, and who were equally as well, or per haps better qualified than myself. It seems, however, that I now have opposition—to which I enter no complaint. One of my opponents, Mr. Herbert Fielder, of the county of Polk, has issued a long address to the people of the District, and, without attacking my public course heretofore, endeavors to show that I am not eligible to a seat in Congress, and that the people would be violating either the letter or spirit of our Constitution to vote for me. The gentleman arrives at this conclusion by a strange misapprehension of facts. He quotes and relies upon the following provision of the Confederate Constitution, viz: “ And no person holding any office under the Confederate States shall be a member of either House during his continuance in office.” And then he makes the following astound ing declaration: “He (meaning myself) is holding office under the Confederate States, to continue twelve months from the time he was mustered into service.” How, or from whom, the gentleman learned I was “ holding office under the Confederate States” is certainly a mystery. I hold no office under the Confederate Slates, but am commissioned by Gov. Brown, of Georgia, as Colonel of the 7th Georgia Regi ment. This fact, you will see, entirely de stroys his whole argument. Upon the subject of my eligibility, and the propriety of my candidacy, I beg your attention to the follow ing correspondence with the Hon. Robert Toombs and Col. Thomas W. Thomas, (late J udge of thb Superior Court,) two gentlemen distinguished alike for their great abilities as Jurists, and their devotion to our Constitution al rights. Upon the reception of Mr. Field er’s address, I wrote them the following letter, to which theirs is a reply : Headquarters, ) 7th Regiment Ga. Volunteers, S October 1, 1861. J Jl/y Dear Sirs : I have authorized the use of my name as a candidate to represent the Bth District of Georgia in the next Confederate Congress. Some of my opponents are insist ing before the people of that District, that I am not eligible to a seat in Congress under and by virtue of the 6th Section and Ist Article of the Confederate Constitution. Knowing the great confidence the people have in your opin ions and your great abilities, and not wishing to violate either the letter or spirit of that Consti tution, which, with yourselves, I am ready to defend upon the battle-field, I ask you to fur nish me with your views as to my eligibility and the propriety of ray candidacy. With the highest esteem, I am very truly your friend and obedient servant. LUCIUS J. GARTRELL. Gen. Ti. Toombs and Col. T. W- Thomas. C/Imp Near Pine Creek. 1 Fairfax County, Va . )• Oct. 2d, 1861. J Col. L. J. Gartrell: Dear Sir: —Your note, dated yesterday, has been handed to us. In that note you in sub stance ask us whether, in our opinion, your holding a seat in. Congress, while Colonel of your Regiment, would be a violation of the letter or spirit of the 6th Section of the Ist Article of the Confederate States Constitution. Upon reference to that Section we find the portion in question to be as follows: “ And no person holding any office under the Confederate States shall be a member of either House during his continuance in office.” The facts in your case are these: You hold the office of Colonel of a portion of the Vol unteer Militia of the State of Georgia, com missioned thereto by her Governor, to serve iu the defense of the Confederate States for 12 months from May last. Your Regiment (the 7th) was raised in Georgia from among the militia of that State, armed and equipped by Georgia, and all its officers, field and com pany, commissioned by Gov. Brown. In what sense it can be reasonably contended that you hold an office “under the Confederate States," we are unable to see. Wc are clearly of opin ion, therefore, that if the people of your dis trict elect you to Congress, you will not vio late the letter of the Constitution by accept ing the trust and taking your seat on the 22d next February. Would you, by so doing, violate the spirit of NEW SERIES: VOL I-NO. 203. the Constitution ? Let us inquire briefly into the history of this clause. We borrowed it (as we did most of the others) from the old United States Constititution. Why did our ancestors put it into the old ? It was to guard against a great evil that prevailed in the British Gov ernment from which we had so recently sepa rated. The King there was the fountain of honor; he appointed all officers, and many were removable at his pleasure. Our ances tors believed that the representative of a peo ple might be subservient to Executive power, and not independent in his action, if he held a valuable office dependent on Executive plea sure. But in what sense are you dependent on the President of the Confederate States ? He did not appoint you, and could not appoint your successor were you removed. He cannot remove you at pleasure, nor even for miscon duct, except by the judgment of your peers and the laws of the land. We are clear, there fore, that your accepting a seat in Congress, while Colonel of the 7th Regiment, would not be a violation of the spirit of the Constitu tion. These are our views; but suppose we are wrong—the difficulty presented is very small. The language is prohibitory of “holding any office under the Confederate States” while a member of either House. If the House itself should determine (and it is the sole judge) that you could not hold the two offices, you could, on the 22d February, resign your com mission as Colonel, and then the objection would certainly disappear. The Constitution does not prohibit a person being elected to Con gress, even if he held a commission in the regular army, and he could take his seat if he resigned. We see therefore, no illegality in your name being run and voted for as a member of Con gress of the Sth District of Georgia, nor do we see any impropriety whatever. If the freemen of the Bth District,see proper to confer upon you this trust, we think you ought to ac cept it. Your military experience certainly does add to your qualifications to represent the the National Councils. You are better acquainted on account of it, with the wants and condition of the army, and it may be well for the 30,000 volunteers in the service from Georgia to have one or more members of their own class in Congress. If the freemen of the Bth District choose to give us one of these, there is nothing in the Constitution or the proprieties of the case to hinder them. Very respectfully yours &0., THOMAS W. THOMAS, R. TOOMBS. Having shown the utter fallacy of Mr. Fiel ders objection to my eligibility I shall not to discuss with him the “enormities of Phil lip 11, and Charles V,” nor what circumstan ces “gave to Europe the Dutch Republic.” I have neither the time nor the inclination to consider those past events. My business now is to help whip the Yankees and maintain, against our infamous foes, the rights, honor, and liberties of the people of the Confeder ate States and I call upon Mr. Fielder to come and assist me. He would then be proving “his faith by his works.” My competitor seems to have a great horror for “ men in high military commission,” and intimates that to elect them to high civil station might great* ly endanger the Constitution. Is the gentle man afraid to trust men who are now risking their lives on the tented field in defense of of that same Constitution, while he is enjoy ing ease and pleasure at home ? Surely he cannot be so ungenerous. But, my Fellow- Citizens, I deem it unnecessary to say more. My name is before you. My position hereto fore and now, as well as my efforts to defend your liberties upon the battle-field, are known to the country, I claim only to have done my duty. I shall not neglect the duty I owe the brave and gallant men under my command to go home and canvass for office, but am content to trust my interests in the keeping of the intel ligent, brave and generous people of the Dis trict. If it be your pleasure to elect me as your next Representative, I shall ever be grateful and shall strive to serve you faithful ly and efficiently. For your past uniform kind ness, confidence and support, please accept my heart-felt thanks. Hoping And believing tirtt, under the guid ance of a kind and protecting Providence, our efforts for Independence will soon be crowned with a glorious success, I am your friend and ob’t serv’t, LUCIUS J. GARTRELL. ATLANTA BRASS FOUNDRY ON HUNTER STREET, Between McDonough and Butler Streets, Near the City Hall.
