Correspondence.
Atlanta, Ga , Oct. 27, 18GI.
Col. J- M. Calhovn — Dear Sir: As one of
your old political and personal friends, permit
me to inquire, in behalf of many of your
friends of this county, whether you intend to
allow vour name to be put before the people ot
the Eighth Congressional District for Repre
sentative. Yours, Ac.,
A. W. HAMMOND.
Atlanta, Ga , Oct. 27, 18G.L
Cot.. A. W. Hammond —Dear Sir: I received
your communication this morning, in which
you ask, that in behalf of many of my friends,
you be permitted to inquire whether I intend
ed to allow my name to be pat before the peo
ple of the Eighth Congressional District for
Representative, and for answer. I have to say
that sometime since I declined being a candi
da la at the present time, though the fact lies
not been made public ; and take this occasion
to retnru thanks to my friends who solicited
me, by letter and otherwise to be a candidate,
for their confidence and friendship thereby
shown iu and for me. Col. Gartrell, who is
now a candidate, was our Representative in
the Congress of the United States. His term
was cut short by the dissolution of the Union.
He is now absent in the service of his country,
and recently lost a son in that service. He is
not here to defend his claims before the peo-.
pie, and I am not disposed to raise any ques
tion with him in regard to his eligibility un
der the circumstances.
These are some of the reasons which induce
me to decline a candidacy at the present time.
But, as your inquiry only relates to the fact
as to whether I will be a candidate myself, I
need say no more.
With high regard,
I am yours, Ac.,
JAS. M. CALHOUN.

The Leesburg Fight—Gen. Evans.
Our men fought’ desperately and covered
themselves with glory at Leesburg. Never
before lid men fight against such odds, under
such disadvantages, and achieve such a gio .
rious victory, such magnificent results, with
such small loss.
But notwithstanding this almost unparal
leled victory obtained by a handful of men
without arms equal to those of their oppo
nents, who ye re more than four to one, we
are of opinion, with all the light before us,
that it is one of the most unfortunate occur
rences of the campaign.
We are more than ever convinced that our
Generals on the Potomac understand what
they are about, and know belter how to con
duetthiscampaign than all thecroakers among
ihe dissatisfied newspaper editors and corres
pondents, who are nothing more than ignor
ant iutermedilers and common disturbers of
the Peace.
Gen. Evans, '• who -eceived bis commission
us such but. a day or ,-vq before,) if we are
correctly informed, was oru rgj to fail back,
if the enemy appeared in f orce ,
did not fall back, but fought them v. his owu
judgment, contrary lo orders. Il was a.-. er _
mined that McClellan Lad resolved to make a
general attack on our lines, and only wanted
to secure a position on our left flank before
Laud, which our men were disposed to let him
have, hence, this order to relreat. This
is our information ; and if it is correct, and
had been obeyed, the great and decisive bat-
SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY
tie would have been fought, and the victory
won, before now. As it is, our plan of draw
ing McClellan on, and his intention to attack
us, are completely frustrated and put off in
definitely. The Yankees are taken all aback
. al our success with our little handful against
such odds. They ate discouraged. and many
days will elapse before their courage can be
wrought up to the sticking point again.
They have received a severe check on a smal
scale—not enough lo be decisive, but enough
to make I hem hesitate long before they attack
us again, or place themselves in a position
where we can attack them.
If this information be correct, it shows the
; fruits of rash impetuosity—the value ol the
senseless cry of “ on to Washington.”
We see it stated, that Gen. Evans has been
Court-Martialed for disobedience of orders;
but we know’ not how tine it is.

Badly Skeered.
In another column will be found the letter
of Secretary Seward, to the Governors of the
Northern States, advising them to forty their
coasts.
On its appearaoe in New York, Wall street
was thrown into a terrible commotion, and
Federal stocks went down 21 to 3 per cent.
The “ Herald” says that the letter made its
appearance upon the heel of the announce
ment that the steamer Nashville had escaped
through the blockade at Charleston and had
gene to Europe with Messrs. Slidell and Ma
son on board —ministers to France and Eng
land respectively, from the Confederate States
—“both wily diplomatists, and well adapted
to their mission.” The “ Herald” also states
that the Nashvtlle sailed from Charleston on
the night that Capt. Hollins so disturbed the
Lincoln fleet off New Orleans ; and carried a
dispatch announcing the result of that ’>ril
liant affair, to Europe
Its a pity to spoil such a scare crow of a
picture, manufactured by the “Herald” which
is frighting the Yankees out of their wits
It is having i*s effect, fertile Her.il 1 says it
is (be cause of Seward writing that letter;
but it is proper to state that the Nashville is
now lying at her wharf iu Ctiarles'on not
having left or attempted to leave there lately.

Tennessee Senators.
The Tennessee Legislature have eltcied
Landen C. Haynes, and Gustavus A. Henry,
Confederale Stales Senators. They are both
able and true met; One of them was a se
cessionist before the fall of Sumter, and the
other was not, but they now are both as true
to the Confederacy as any body. The Legis
lature did right, and by their action, have
shown that they are in earnest in supporting
the Government, and putting down ali dissen
tioit among (he people at home. This is the
true spirit that should actuate our people
everywhere.

[For the “ Confederacy.”
“ Gwinnett”—Col. Gartrell.
Messrs. Jddilors: Please bear with me in a
tewwordsof reply to that last article of “Gwin
nett.”
Allow me, respectfully, lo deny that I have
raised the question of whether Col. Gartrell
loves his country. 1 made no such insinuation
even; and it was unfair and uncandid in
“ Gwinnett” to say so. I only stated what I
conceived to be his duty as a lover of his coun
try.
“ G winnett” thinks the next Congress will
be the “ most important of any that has as
sembled on this continent for the last half
century and that, therefore, Col. G. ought to
be in it. I admit that it. will be an important
Congress; but by no means so important as
the present Provisional Congress. If its im
portance is any reason <vhy Col. G. should be
in it, the Georgia Convention, when it chose
members to that Congress, was very direlict
and strangely overlooked his merits. I have
no idea the next Congress will bo any more
important than the one next succeeding it will
be. These issues are raised by Gwinnett— not
me.
Col. G. is asking for the office. “Gwinnett’’
tries to represent that it is his duty to accept
it if the people confer it on him ? and, in this
way, tries to conceal from public view, the
important fact that he is energetically seeking
the office, and using every exertion to secure
it. My point is this ; If he is efficient and use
ful as an army officer, he should not seek or
accept an office out of the army till his term
of service has expired, and the people should
not confer on him such an office; and if they,
without his asking, give him an office, he
should decline it. He is under prior and more
sacred obligations to the brave men in his reg
iment, to serve them in an office which they
have conferred on him by their unanimous suf
frages, at his own solicitation. His obligations
to these brave men arc the highest, most sa
cred and above all. They honored him with
their confidence, and the authority to com
mand them when he solicited the honor at
their hands, and he should not now leave them
for a place of case. His lot should bj with
them, and while they are in the field, suffer
ing toils, privations and hardships, and yield
ing up their lives to death, alike by disease
and the bullets of our enemies, he should share
their sufferings and toils. The brave Captain
of a sinking vessel is always the last one to
leave the ship. He always remains on board
till she goec down, unless he first succeeds in
removing every soul from it. When the term
for which his regiment volunteered shall have
expired, the obligation which be is under to
remain with them wi 1 have ceased, and not
before; and until that time, no demands of the
“ dear people” can either discharge his obli
gations to his regiment, or create any that are
paramount to, or more imperative, than the
high and sacred obligations of honor which he
•founder to remain with his brave men and
shaX their toils and sufferings, victories and
honors?
if he them, solely for the pur-
P°s® o- o fj| ce o f on y ki n d it
will be, in my humX. , ■ . , c ,
„ "*» opinion, an act of bad
faith, as well as exhiK , ■ . ~ , ~

(•».<* hi. «W.
safety to blm..lf' if h„ h.j '' V ? f eaM
I al any idea of being
a candidate for Congress when he was seeking
the office of Colonel of the Seventh Regiment,
he should have lotd the mon so al the time.—
If he had done this, and if they then had
chosen him Colonel, wt’h an understanding
that he would be a candidate for Congress and
> resign his Colcnelay rs elected, it would then
I and now have been fair; but he did not When
his men elected him Colonel, they expected him
to remain with them to the end.
If he is an efficient Colonel, he sh<mb> stay
with his men If he is not. he should have
‘ resigned l"i>g ago, and not have waited for a
ehaiioe to get a civil office, in order to resign.
“Gwinnett” says a sent in Congress is more
! suited to his -taste" ond ‘ qualifications” than
the office he rmw iq Ids H his taste and quali
fications are rmt suited to his present office, he
should not have sought or accepted it.
“Gwinnett” cia's an imputation upon my
patriotism, because I stay at home and write
against Col. G. who is in the field fighting the
i battles of his country. I will say that I would
i not have written a word against him if be had
. not laid himself open to just and severe, eriti
! cism. as well by his own course as that of such
1 friends as “Gwinnett;" but this imputation
upon my patriotism is of a piece with the bad
taste and impoliteness of Col. Gartrell iu mak
ing the same charge against Col. Fielder, when
he knows Col F is physically unable to un
; dergo the toils and hardships of the camp. It
i is of the same school of mendacity a lopted by
| the Richmond Uxamincr, in saying that Vice
’ President Stephens should enter the army in
j order to entitle him to the respect and conii
i denee of the people, when the editor of that
j paper knows that Mr. Stephens weighs only
90 pounds; that lie could not lilt a weight of
i 50 pounds, if his life dvnended on it; and that
j from infancy till now, he has been and is, the
I most frail and fragile mortal that over lived to
' attain the age of maturity.
i Such is the character of the argument by
; which Gwinnett tries to east an imputation
j upon my patriotism. A man with any argu-
I moot at hand—any other ground to stand up
i on. would not use such as this.

Combining Civil and Military Position*—
The Soldier Office-seeker in time of
W a r.
It said that we have :< new government, and
i therefore ought lo h.ive new rules. It cannot
: be dc-nied that- we have .. plentiful crop of
! would be statesmen and legislators, who have
’ qualified themselves to fill impolT-iiit -tatious
; by a system of education altogether novel
i For the first time in the history of thi9*eoun
try, it has been discovered that a service of
three or six months in the eamp, titsone, how
ever inexperienced or iguorai;!, for the dis
charge of the delicate functions <>f legislator
or governor. Those who enlist and go to the
tented field, avow that they are actuated by a
desire lo serve their country; but from the
Subsequent career of many of theiu,<me would
suppo-e that they are ready to lay down their
lives for ciiiee rather than country. That the
soldier who has fulfilled the term of his enlist
• merit is entitled to the gratitude of his country
none will deny, and other th ig- being upta!
; that he will be preferred by emtntrymen
■ for civil office, is equally clear and proper
But it is not apparent that either officer or pri
vate, while engaged in the discharge of his
military duties, should be called to till a civil
office. Indeed, it is most clear that one posi
tion at a time is as much as he can till effici
ently, and in attempting to discharge the du
ties of both, he will perform those of neither.
He cannot, in the military profession, do his
duty by proxy, and still less is this the case in
his civil office. Merchants and traders seem
anxious to monopolize and wring a fortune
from the necessities of the people, but politi
cians and soldiers should not certainly imitate
an example which, on all occasions, they loud
ly condemn. Toe policy, if indeed it can be
called policy, of uniting different and distinct
offices in one person, is denounced by the Con
stitution of this State, and neariyevery other
State in the Confederacy, and for the most ob
vious reasons. Notwithstanding this, we see
numbers holding high military positions, and
| also seats in Congress and in the various Leg
islatures, and others holding such military po
sitions, seeking seats in Congress ami in the
Legislature. Is this consistent? is it right?—
We opine not, for iu that event nearly all our
Constitutions are wrong and public opinion is
i sadly iu want of a radical and thorough re
: form. But there is another class who serve a
I portion of their enlistment, and cither resign
i their military appointment, if officers, or pro
! cure their discharge, if privates, and are at
; once brought forward as candidates by their
i too partial friends lor office. Were these the
j grounds upon which the people delighted to
i promote and honor such heroes and patriots as
i Jackson and Taylor? Were the claims of eith
er of these illustrious men urged lor office un
til they had fully discharged their duties to
their country in the field? and what reason
is there for any different rule iu the present
case? Arc those offering themselves for office
more worthy than these illustrious men? No
oue will venture to set up the claim for them,
then let the lion’s skin be stripped from them
—let them pass for what, they are really worth,
and not be permitted to take to themselves
credit for services at best only partially ren
! dered—let them be made to feel their assumed
I •* title hang loose about them.”
1 Thia experiment has been tried in some por
tions ot the State already, and it is a matter
: of congratulation to know that it proved a
I signal failure. PINEY WOQDS
Howards Letter.
Department of State, )
Washington, Oct. 14, 1861. j
To his Eretdlcncy the Governor of the State of
New York.
Sir : The present insurrection had not even
revealed itself in arms when disloyal citizens
hastened to foreign countries to invoke their
intervention for the overthrow of the Gov
ernment and the destruction of the Federal
Union. These agents are known to have made
their appeals to some of the more important
States without success. It is not likely how
ever, that they will remain content with such
refusals. Indeed, it is understood that they
are industriously endavoring to accomplish
that disloyal purpose by degrees and by in
direction.
Taking advantage of the einbrassments of
agriculture, manufactures, and coimuercc in
foreign countries, resulting from the insur
rection they have inaugurated at home, they
seek to involve our common country in con
troversies with States with which every pub
lic interest, and every interest of mankind,
require that it shall remain iu relations of
peace, amity, and friendship.
I am-able to state for your satisfaction that
the prospect of any such disturbance is now
less serious than it has been at any previous
period during the course of the insurrection.
It is nevettlieless necessary now. as ii has
hitherto been, to take every precaution that
is possible to surest the evils of a foreign war
io be superinduced upon those of civil com
motion which we are endeavoring to cure.—
One of the most obvious of such precautions
is. that our ports and harbors on theseasand
lakes should be put in a condition of complete
defence; Cor any nation may be said to volun
tarily incur danger in tempestuous seasons
when it fails to show that it. lias sheltered it
self on every side from which the storm might,
possibly come.
The measures which t he Executive can adopt
iu this emergency are such only as Congress
has sanctioned, and for v/hich it lias provided.
The President is putting forth the most
diligent efforts to execute these measures, and
we have the great satisfaction of seeing that
these efforts, seconded by the favor, aid, and
support of a loyal, patriotic, and self-sacrifi
cing people afc rapidly bringing the military
and naval forces of the United Slates into the
highest state of efficiency. But. Congress was
chiefly absorbed during its recent extra ses
sion with these measures, and did not provide
as am) ly as could lie wished for the fortifica
tion of our sea and lake coasts. In previous
wars loyal States have applied themselves by
independent and separate activity to support
and aid the Federal Government iu its ardu
ous responsibilities. The same disposition
has been manifested iu a degree eminently hon
orable by all the loyal States during the pres
ent insurrection. In view of this fact, and
relying upon the increase and eontinnancy of
the same disposition on the part of the loyal
States, the President has directed me to in
vite your consideration to the subject of the
defences of the State over which you preside,
and to ask you to submit the subject to the
consideration of the Legislature when it shall
have assembled. Such proceedings by the
State would require only a fempoary use of
its means.
The expenditures ought m be made the
subject of conference with the Federal Gov
ernment. Being tbus made with the concur
rence of the Government for general defence,
there is every reason io believe that Congress
would sanction whsit the State should do, and
would provide for its i -imbursement.
Should these suggesiious be accepted, the
President will direct the proper agents of the
Federal Government to confer with you, and
to superintend, direct and conduct the prose
cution of the system of the defence of your
State. ’ have the honor to be
your obd’t servant,
WM H. SEWARD,
Secretary of Stale.
