Several of the most bitter enemies of Gov. Drown
iisvo tong since determined to throw th6 election
of Governor upon the Legislature. They have no
hope ol defeating him by a vote of the people, but
they hope by having mauy candidates in different
parts ol the State to prevent an election by the peo
ple mid throw it upon the Legislature. In pursu
ance ol this scheme they have called upon nearly
every prominent man in the State to allow them
to uso him as a candidate, Col. Garlrell, Judge
Cabaniss. .1 n , lJ*e’*ftBre, Gen’l. Colquitt and Judge
Jenkins, have ali been solicited to run but all re-
fused until the Recorder happened to hit upon Mr.
1'arlow, who contrary to all expectations suffered
them to use him to take the election from the peo
ple. We can’t suppose that even Mr. Furlow ex
pects to be elected by the people, ifhedocswe
believo lie is the only man in the (state that thinks
-o. From present appearances even Mr. Hill will
heat him two to one, and we most sincerely believe
that Gov. Drown will beat them both by a large
majority. What can Mr. Furlow do towards pros
ecuting tho war or providing for our soldiers aud
their families that Gov. Brown has notdone already
and cannot do much better than he by reason of
his experience and untiring energy 1 The people
and tbe soldiers understand ibis,and they will cast
their votes for their old and tried friend, Governor
Brown.
Iliril out.
The Atlanta Gazette, the only paper in Georgia
that came out openly for Mr. Hill, has been mer
ged into tho Knoxville Register, and tbe former
politics of the paper dropped. There is no paper
for Mr. Hill, in Georgia, unless it be tho Savan
nah Republican, which, in a long Editorial, at
tempted to defend Mr. Hill, but lias not yet de
clared its intention to support him, so far as our
observation goes.
Since tbe above was written, wo Lave seen the
Rome Southerner. That paper supports Hill.—
So there is one “rose” left blooming alone on tbe
hillside.

Messrs Editors: .The opponents of Gov. Browi.
have been trying hard to make some capital agaiSA
Gov. Drown, because of his difference with L'resi-
ident Davis as to tho constitutionality and expedi
ency of tho Conscript Act, and they pretend to be
lieve that things would go on better if tho Estate
had a Governor who had no nerve of his own, o:
who believed that President Davis never bad ifkne
wrong-, mid couid not do wrong, A c-
Well, it would seem that all the balance of the
States in tho Confederacy have had just such Gov
ernors as these opponents of Gov. Brown, in Gtor-
kia, so much deserve. And what have they done 7
Gov. Drown, after Soutli Carolina seceded, was
not only the first to suize all tho Forts aud public
properly of the United States be could get hold ot,
but bis cxainplo was such a good one, all the bal
ance of tbe Governors followed right after him.
But, they would not, or did not, follow him ; fur
ther, he not oniy had tiro foresight to purchase a
large amount of sulphur and saltpeter, and pow
der, but he bought cannon, muskets, Enfield ri
des, steamboats, and took upwards of20,000 mus
kets from the United States, and then turned all o
them over to the Confederacy. What other Gov
ernor did as much, or did half as much, in render
ing aid to President Davis, in this war. But this
is not all. In the early part of last year, President
Davis (before the passage of the Conscription Act)
called upon tho Governors of tho various States
for their quota of volunteers—asking from Georgia
12,000. Notwithstanding the State then had about
10,000 state troops in tho field, at Savannah, guar
ding that City and the coast, thereby lclieving the
Confederate Government, to a large extent, in de
fending Savannah and our sea coast; Gov. Blown,
by his energy and the spirit which lie infused into
his Military officers not only raised, at tho proper
time, the 12,000 troops called for, but tendered
about 3,000 more than were called for, while all
of theso par excellence, “ Administration” Govern
ors did not and could not furnish even the quota
| called for by the President, and iu many of tbe
■ States tbe quota was not furnished, until their snl-
! diers were forced into the service by the Conscript
i Act. And, more recently,when the President call- '
■ ed forS.OOU men from Georgia,7,000 from Alabama, 1
i and a due proportion from tho other States, to
| organise for State defence, where lias any State
j come up to Georgia’s standard 7 Notwithstanding
| Georgia lias in the service, perhaps, a larger num- ,
; her of Volunteers than any other State, according
to her population, and also had 2,000 State troops,
in the field, in the upper part of the State; yet by
■ the extraordinary exertions of Gov. Brown, not
only tho 8,0(10 but 15,000 have been raised. Wliat

Whereas, Owing to our absence from home, we
have no opportunity of consulting with our fellow-
citizens ; aud as we believe that the welfare of our

to a great extent, on the action of our next Legis
lature, and believing that we are entitled to a
voice in the selection of the next Representative
of Baldwin :
Therefore be it Resolved,
1st, That in our opiuion the county should be
represented by some person who has had ample
opportunities by actual observation aud experience,
of acquainting himself with our wants and neces
sities, and ivha is capable of devising proper means
of supplying tbe one, and of relieving the other.
2nd, That Private John C. Daniel, of this
company, iu our opinion, possesses the qualifica
tions requisite to fill this important station. Hav
ing faithfully served bis country, in tbe ranks of
her army, for the past eighteen months, we be
lieve that such true patriotism should receive its
just reward, and therefore respectfully recommend
him to the voters Of Baldwin county; and hereby

We appear to-day, for the first time since the

which we were supplied has suspended operations,
and we do not know how long it may be before
operations arc resumed. We, therefore, use a half
sheet at present,assuring our subscribers that we
will give them a whole sheet, as heretofore, as
scon as we can make arrangements with a Paper.
Mill to procure a supply. We will spare no ex
pense to get paper. It is a matter of pride with
us to publish a large and well filled sheet, and we
have, with great reluctance, resorted to a half
sheet. If tlie Marietta Mill, as we trust it will,re
sumes operations at an early day, wo are assured
of a supply. If it does not, we shall make ar
rangements. if possible, with some other Mills, and
publish a whole sheet ns heretofore.
Since the above was written we have beard
with pleasure that the Marietta Mill has resumed
operations.

tlie address of Gov. Brown to the Home Guards ; to
be found in this paper. Gov. Brown's address
breathes the right spirit. It is another evidence of
Gov. Brown's willingness to co operate with tho
President in the great struggle for independence
now going on. Let those who charge tho Govern

read his address, and forever cease their grum
blings and accusations.
A Bail slate of tilings in North Georgia
We have lately conversed with a gentleman who
js direct from Gilmer county, and he reports a very
bad state of things in that and some of the adjoin
ing counties. He says there is an open and
avowed UKION PARTY in several of these coun
tries. They are opeDly in favor of a return to the
Aid union, and against prosecuting the War nny
farther. They have union candidates for the Leg
islature. All of these union men are in favor of
Mr. Joshua Hill for Governor. The contest be
tween the fijends of Gov. Brown mid tlie War, and
tlie friends of Mr. Hill and Union is very bitter
and fierce, and our informant believed Mr. Hill
and union would get a majority in several coun
ties. Mr. Furlow is not spoke <4, nor thought of,
in all that region. This is on alarming state of
facts and shows that Mr. Hill’s friends are more
numerous and dangerous than many of us have
believed.
Several of the iron rams have hauled off. Tbe pros
pect for n general engagement in Virginia is not good.
All eyes are turned to north Georgia and East Tenn
essee. It is probable a great battle may come off be
fore we go to press. Our troops are confident, and-
there is no doubt of the fact that our Army is largo
enough to whip Rosy if he gives battle or gets in posi
tion forour army to attackliim.

Commenting on lion. T. M. Furlow’s letter of
acceptance of the nomination of his friends for the
office of Governor, the Columbus Times remarks : i
“ Mr. Furlow is a gentleman of Ugh social posi- j
tion, great moral worth and fine practical sense, j
Indeed, in all the high qualities of tho Christian |
gentleman and the sterling patriot, we doubt if his |
superior is to ha found in Georgia. Pesonally and
politically no sort of objection can be made to him
by a true man, and it is with unaffected regret we
declare that considerations, which we feel bound
to obey compel us to withhold from him our sup
port. His candidacy under existing circumstan
ces we regard as most unfortunate. Being in fa
vor of a vigorous prosecution of the war and oppos
ed to reconstruction under any form, evpry vote
that be will get in the State will be taken from the
opponents of Mr. Hill, or the supporters of Gov
Brown. His candidacy, therefore, increases Hill’s
relative strength and adds to the chances of his
election. A few true and local men can be found
among Mr. Hill’s supporters, but that lie will get
tlie vote of every man who is disaffected to the
Government, opposed to the war and in favor of
reconstruction or submission,we have not a doubt.
As between Gov. Brown and Mr. Furlow we be
lieve the former to be much the strongest through
out the State ; and because of this superiority, aud
believing that by supporting him we shall best
subserve the object of rebuking and throttling this
spirit of disaffection, or treasou.we arc for Brown.”
Tho devi! quoting scripture lias always been
regarded as the height of moral absurdity, but
such an expedient on the part of his Satanic Ma
jesty for the purpose of deceiving and duping weak
sinners is not more ridiculous or absurd than tlie
professions of a certain class of old hack politicians
and editors, who arc forever prating of their espe
cial friendship for President Davis, and endeavor
ing to create the impression that all who may at
any’ time have differed in theii views on questions
of expediency from tha President are enemies of
“ the Administration,” and of course hostile to the
will be to invade Texas.

I have received the sad intelligence of the death
of this noble young man, my brother and com
panion in arms, and feel it to bo my duty to in
scribe a few lines to his memory.
He died in the 20th year of bis age, on the I8th
day of July, in the city of New York, from a
wound received in a skirmish at tiie battle of Get
tysburg, Penn., on the 2d of July. He was left
in tho hands of the enemy when Ihe army retired,
anj was carried to New York where he found a
grave. T his sad news was brought to his mother
and si-.ter by a letter from a member of the 45th
Ga, liegt., who was also taken prisoner at the
time he was, aud who waited upou him in his dy
ing moments. His dying request was, “write to
my mother and sister, tell them I die the death of
a Christian, and death I do not fear but feel per
fectly resigned to the will of God.” What con
soling words these must have been to their be
reaved hearts ! Though he died far away from
home ami friends he died the death of a Christian
and was decently buried. Eddie was a dear friend
of mine, and tbe news of his death overwhelmed
me with grief almost as though he bad been my
own brother. For more.than two years before
the war be was my daily companion, and our love
for each other became almost insurpassa’ule. He

To Ihe Waters of the 4th Congressional Dist:
At the instance of triends, I announce myself
as a candidate to represent you in tha next Con
gress of tlie Confederate States. If elected, I
shall advocate such measures as are best calcula
ted to bring the war to a speedy and successful
close—shall seek to promote the harmony and
efficiency of all departments of the government,
and by the cultivation of closer relations with
friendly foreign powers, to secure their aid and
co-operation inthe*struggle in’ which we are en
gaged.
Regarding the condition of. our finances as one
of the most important subjects now demanding
tbe attention’of Congress, I s"ball labor diligent
ly to improve tlie currency and keep tlie
public debt within safe and legitimate bounds.
Tho wants and welfare of .our soldiers, with
whom 1 have so long served, and whose sufferings
and self-sacrificing devotion I have had so many
opportunities of observing, will receive a large
share ol -my time and attention. Nor shad I be un
mindful of the interests of the industrial and pro
ducing classes of our people upon whose
skill and labors our success so largely depends.
In a word, if honored with vour suffrages I shall
devote myself earnestly, faithfully and assiduous
ly to your service—actuated no less by my sense
of duty as your representative, than by my heart
felt desire to secure tho independence and the
happiness of our beloved Confederacy.

Excitement in Georgia.—The election ex
citement in Georgia reminds us of tlie old time.
It is getting so warm that “traitor” is not an un
common word oftiie vocabulary of the papers.
For Congress and the Legislature the candi
dates aro as thick as autumn leaves There is no
way of enumerating them. For Governor there are
three candidates: namely, Joseph E. Brown, the
incumbent; Joshua Hill; and a late nominee. Ma
jor T. M. Furlow. The excitement is mainly cor
lined to this branch of the popular service. Evt^y
one knows what Brown s position is. He is the
Governor, nnd as jealous of the rights of the State
as a hen can be of her one chicken. If he err, it is
on vifture’s side. His whole soul seems to be oc
cupied by one purpose, and that is to defeat the
the Yankees.— Having a profound respect for the
loyalty of Georgia, we have a right to expc-ct that
he will be elected by a large majority.
Hill is a man of marked ability. He is an ac
complished gentleman in the management of our
English tongue—a scholar, doubtless, more than
a man of action. He splits on terms, and is very
careful liisjuse of them. A recent letter|defining his
position lacks a good deal of what we should think
the loyal people of Georgia desire, and is certainly
liable to a construction which implies, it not
proves, a want of earnestness in the cause of the-
oountry.
Major Furlow has also published a letter, and a
very well written one. The central idea of it is
respect for the President, and a determination to
give him hearty support.
The election is to bo held on the first Wednes
day of next month. The soldiers of the State
no matter where they may be, have a right to
vote. I it a M probability, they will support Gov.
Brown.—Moble Tribune.
