TO THE VOTHUS Ol<’ Till! I'.IGHTII COFGRI'ISSIONAL DISTRIC I*. Camp Nk\« "Arfax C. 11. ( Virginia, 3, 1861. I J/y Fellow-Citizens of the Sth Conges sional District of Geo-fa: 1 trust yon will not deem it improper in my address ing you briellyj.upsm the subject of m\ candidacy to represent you in me next Confederate Congress A short time since, after mature deliberation, and upon the request of many of your fel low-citizens, 1 consented to the use of my namejor that high and important trust 1 had previously received many assurances, inducing me to believe that | would become a candidate thcie 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 mv term in the old Congress had beer, cut sh ’f. by the prompt secession of ottt State, an election to the new Con gress was due me. Acting upon thesi representations, and bel.eving that a majority of the people of the District desired my services again as their Rep resentative, I agreed to become a can didate, with the distinct avow .1 of my determination not to hold the place lon ger than one term, as there were other gentlemen ia the District whose friends desir .'d to hon >r them, and who wen* equally as well, or perhaps better quali fied than myself. It seems, however, that I now have opposition —to which I enter n complaint. One of my o; - ponen's, Mr. Herbert Fielder, of the county of Folk, has issue i a long ad dress to the p eople of tlie District, an.l, without at’a.’king my public course heretofore, endeavors t" sh >w that I am r.ot eligible to a seat in Congress, and that die people would be violating eith er the le’ter or spirit of our Constitution to vote for me. The gen leman arrives at this cmchision by a strange misap prehension of facts. He quotes and relies upon the following provision ol the Confederate Constitution, viz : “And no person holding any offic under the Confederate Sates shall be a member of ei het House during h.s con tinuance in ofiiee ” Ami then he makes the following us toun ing declaration: “. e (meaning myself) is h ilding oili’-e under the Con federate States, to con inue twelve months from the time he was mustered into service.'" How, or from whom, the gentlemen learned I was “holding office under the Confederate Mates” is cer tainly a mystery. I hold no office under the Confede ol', Sta'es, bit am commis tio ted by Gm:. Brown of Georgia as Col onel of the “th Georgia Regiment. This fact you will see, entirely destroys hi whole argument. Upon the subject of my eligibility, and propriety of my can didacy, I beg your attention to tin? foil owing correspondence with the Hon. Robert Toombs and Col. T. W. Thom as, (late Judge of the Supreme Court,) two gentlemen distinguished alike for their great abilities as Jurists, and their devotion to our Constitutional rights. Upon the reception of Mr. Fiel der’s address I wrote them the follow ing letter, to which th Mrs is a reply: Headquarters. I sth Regiment Ga. Voynteers >- October 1. 1861.) My Dear Sirs: I have authorized the use of my name as a candidate to repre jient the Sth District of in the next Con federate Congress. Some of my oppo nents are insisting before the people of that District, that I am not eligi'. le to, a sent in Congress under ami by virtue of the 6th Section and Ist Article of the Confederate Constitution. Knowing the great confidence the people have in your opinions and your great abilities and no' wishing to “violate either the letter or spirit” of that Constitution, which, with yourselves, I am ready to defend upon the battle-field, I ask you to furnish me with your views as to my cligibilty and the propriety of my can didacy. With the highest esteem, I am very truly your friem.l and obedient ser vant. LUCIUS J. GARTRELL. Gen. R. Toombs ar.d Col. Thomas W. Thomas. amp Near Pink Creek, | Fairfax County, Vi. r Oct. 21. 1861.) Col. L. J. GdrtreU: Dear Sir: —Your note, dated yester day, has been handed to us. In that note you in substance ask us whether,in our opinion, your holding a seat in Congress while Colonel of your Regi ment would be a violation of the letter or spirit of th : C mfe 1 crate States Con stitution. Upon reference to that Sec- THE M A RIE TT A WE E ELY A1) YOGA TE. tion we fm l he portion in question to be as follows. “And no person holding any office under the ('onfederate States shall be a member of either House during his con tinuance in office.” The facts in your case are these:— You hold the office of Colonel of a por tion of the Volunteer Militia of the State of Georgia, commissioned thereto by her Governor to serve in the defense of the Confederate S ates for 12 months from May last. Your Regiment (the 7th) was raised in Georgia, from among the militia that State anno I and equipped by Georgia, and all its offi cers, field and company, commissioned by Gov. Brown. In what sense it can be reasonably contended that yon hold an office "under the Confederate States,” we arc unable to see. We are clearly of opinion, therefore, that if the people of your district elect you to Congress, you will not violate the letter of the ‘'(institution by accepting the trust and taking your scat on 22 I next February. Would you, by so d >ing, violate the spirit of the Constitution? Let us im pure briefly in o the history of this clause. We borrowed it (as we did most of the others) from the old United 'dates Constitution. Why did our an costers put it into the old! It was to guard against a great evil that prevail ed in the British Government from which we had so recently separated.— she King there wis the fount tin of honor; he appointed all officers, and many were removable at his pleasure.— our ancestors believed that the repre scntat’ve of a p ■oph? might be subser v’enf to Executive power, and not in dependent on Executive pleasure. But if what sense are yon dependent on the President of the <'onfederate States? He would not upp >int you l ' successor were you removed. He cann 4 remove you at pleasure, nor even f>r mi sc an duct, except by the judgement of your peers and the laws of the land. We are clear, therefore, that your accepting i seat in Congress, while < olonel of the 7th Regiment, would not be a violation of the spirit of th .• ' 'oiistiiutiom These are our views; but suppose we are wrong -the difficulty presented is very small. The language is prohib tory 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) tha* you corld not hold the two offices, yon could on the 22 I February, resign your commission as Colonel, and then the ob jection would certainly disappear. The Constitution does not prohibit a person from being to Congress, even if he held a commission in the regular army, and he could lake his seat if he res gned. We see therefore, no illegality in your name being run ami voted for as a member of Congress of the Bth District of Georgia, nor do we see any impro priety whatever If the free non of the Bth District, see proper to confer upon you this trust, we think you ought to accept it. Your military experience certainly does add to your qualifications to represent the people in the National Councils. Yon are better acquainted on account,of it,with the wants an 1 con dition of the army, and it may lie well for the 30.000 volunteers in the service from Georgia to have one more mem ber of their own cl iss 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 &c., T. W. THOMAS. R. TOOMBS. Having show’n the utter fallacy of Mr. Fielder’s objection to my eligibility 1 shall not stop to d seu-s with him In “enormities of Phillip 11, and Ch.tries V,” nor what circumstances “gay.e to Europe the Dutch Republic.” I have neither the time nor the inclination to consider those past events My busi ness now is to help whip the Yankees and maintain against our infamous foes th<‘rights, honor, and liberties of the people of the C. ml'-d'-r ite S ates and I call upon Mr. Fielder to come and assist me. He would then be proving - his f .ith by bis works.” My competitor seems to have a great horror for “men in high military commission,” and in- i timates th >t to elect (hem to high civil station might greatly endanger the Constitution, Is the gentleman afraid to trust men who are now risking thier live on the tented fi< Id in defense of that same <'oustitnti'in, while he is onj tying ease and pleasure nt home? Surely he cannont be so ungenerous. But, my Fellow Citizens, I deem it unnecessary to say more. My name is before yon. My position heretofore and now, as my < fforls to defend your liberties upon the battle field, are known to the conn try, I claim only to have done my duty I shall not neglect the duty I owe the brave and gallant men under my ci umami to go home and canvass for office, but am content to trust my com mand to go home and canvass for office but am content to trust my interests in the keeping of the intelligent, brave and generous people of the District.— If it be your pleasure to elect me as your next Representative, I shsll ever be grateful ar.d shall strife to you faith fully and efficiently. For your past uniform kindness, confidence and sup nort, please accept my heart-felt t.tanks Hoping and believing (hat, under the guidance of a kind and protect Provi dence, our efforts for Independence will soon be crowned with a glorious success. I am your friend and ob’t serv't. L J. GARTRELL. ii,• From tli(> Intelligencer. Messrs. Gaulding axd Whitaker: I never was the political friend of Col. Gartrell ; Imv t voted for him. But, it hi.s mime continues before the v>te”s of the Eight Congressional District of this state, 1 shall vote for him ; and whether he can hold two offices at one time or not,it should make no difference wi h any of those wlu.se friends, or re latives are under his command, know ing how nobly lie had sns'aiiu’d himself in the Battle of M m issas, and how bu rn mely he treated soldiers iiudci his command m their inaich from llarrer’s Ferry to Winch, s er; and when his men w T ere fainting with heat and fatigue, by putting such on Iris horse and himself taking the march fo't, until another sob'icr, being overtaken fainting by the way-side, was put upon his horse after the other had been rested. Mhy should not sn h a min be honored with the vote of this Distiiet. AMDs W. HAMMOND. GOOD FOR THE THIRSTY SOLDIER Extreme thi'-st is one of the most se vere trials the active soldier has to en counter. During a long march and cm the field of a long ami holly contested bat le he is often almost overcome with fatigugo and thirst. An obi froiitirs man who has had much experience on the Western borders and on the plains suggests t o us the fol lowing as the best remedy and pr wentive of thi st that has ever been discovered: After a meal take the coffee grounds boil them over again and pour it off into your canteen and let it cool for y ear next nmrdi. It is not only nutritive and stimulatin '',’but it will quench the thirst more effectually thm water. It will go two or toree times as far as water. AlSo, take the coffe grounds, after living thus used dry them and put them in your pocket and chew at intervals on the march, or during any arduoii 1 service, and they will likewise repress thirst and satiate greatly the cravings of hunger. This course has been tried with the most gratifying re sults and is worthy of a trial by every soldier in the service. Nashville Pat- riot: K MB Federal Troops in Kentucky.—The Cincinnati Enquirer says there are now not less than 40,000 Federal and State troops in Kentucky, and that the num ber will soon be increased to f 0,000 It urges a speedy novernent in the di rection < f * limberland Gap, the disper sion of the Confederate camp there, and the taking possession of the East Ten nessee and Virginia Railroad. The Louisville Journal of the Bth inst., is so much encouraged by the prospect it says: “We confidently believe that w’itliin six weeks,’ Tennessee and not Kentucky w ill be the theatre of the war.” The Eiiqn : reJs statement may lie tine, and the Joifnal may not be “whistling Io keep its coinage' up lull whether diis lie tl e case or not, the Con federate State leaders should be pre pared for the largest force the enemy can bring against them in Kentucky.

Hon .John C Breckenridge’s Address. ! Ihe Nashville Arnrric’in of Tuesday says: ihe Louisville co nvr of y.-ster- I day prints an al ]e, eloquent ami power- ' ful address from Hon. .John C. Breckm ' ridge, to the people of Kentucky, ini which he returns to them the contmis- > sion of Senator in the Congress of he I United States, with which they h id hon- i ored him, and depicts most, lorcibly the , wrongs of Kentucky, the enormities of i the Lincoln despotism and the duty of Kentuckians to resist th ; usurpat ons of tie tyrant, until their .'•tale is liberated' from hi.s domination, and lu-r people permitted freely to choose their futuie destiny AN IMPORTANT PROPHECY, The iS’ivaiin.ih Republican of the stl; ii:s', says: “'fhe reasons that elevated Goy Brown t.»a third term will be strength ened two years to come, and continue to increase in cogency untill the Al m’ghty shall think proper to lemove him from terrestrial affairs.” We put this prophecy on record for future use for we consider it an admis sion the part of the Republican,that Gov? Brown will make a better Executive for the next two years than ever before and also that he will continue to get better and better as long as he lives, llurrah for Joe Brown and may the Republican in this respect be like him Southern Federal llnion.
