J According previous notice the Georgia Regiments co.Kprisiug Gordon’s Brigade as sembled to-day, tor tdiu purpose of expressing their confidence in, and adhesion to the pres ent Administration- Very nearly the whole Brigade was present (except the 13tli Ga. Rpg’t, which was on picket.) and entered with spirit and interest into the meeting. Gen. John D. Gondoti being called on addressed the meeting in a brief, eloquent and spirited speech, explaining.the object of the meeting, &c. On motion Capt. W. H. llowip’d, 60th Ga. Reg’t, Col. John Hill Lamar, Gist Ga. Reg’t. was called to the Chair, and Adj’t A. J. Liles, 26th Ga. Reg’t, appointed Secretary. On motion of Capt. G. W. Lewis, 31st Ga. Reg t, the Chair was requested to appoint a committee of five from each Regiment to pre pare suitable resolutions expressing the sen timents and feelings ot the Brigade ; where upon the Chair appointed the following, viz : Major B. F. Grace, Serg’t S. E. Clarke, Serg't W. F. Young, Serg’t C. Stewart, private T. I). Anderson, 26th Ga. Reg’t, Capt. Farmer, Serg’t Robinson. Serg’t Oglesby, private A. J. Bond, private .1. 0.

Wooldridge, 31st Ga. Reg’t. The committed, through their chairman, Major Grace, reported the following preamble and resolutions which were unanimously adopted : Whereas, in oiir opinion the final success of the arms of the Confederate States is an absolute necessity to the perpetuation ot our liberties and our preservation from the most cruel oppression and tyranny with which a people were ever afflicted, and Whereas, our obligations to God, to our country, to ourselves «tvA *.c loved ones at home, as well as a decent regard lor the opin ions of mankind, (after the many sacrifices we have already made), demands that we em ploy every meanfy within our power for the achievement of tl(is end, and Whereas, Among these means in our opin ion is a firm and steady support of the exist ing Government and its general policy, as partly set forth by recent Congressional en actments, against the invidious and unjust assaults now being made upoh it, upon pie texts false and unjustifiable, by disappointed and designing politicians; therefore be it Reached, Ist, That we, the troops of Gor dons Brigade, yield a warm and hearty sup port to the administration of President. Davis, believing that his sympathies are with us in our sufferings—hiheart and energies in our cause—and, under the guidance of the uis dom oi his statesmanship, our armies will yet. win a glorious and triumphant peace. Resolved , 2d, T|iut we have no sympathy or feeling in common with the designing men of Georgia or any other State who, from motives of self-aggrandizeinent, are making opposition to the General Government and its policy, and seeking to become the champions c 4 Flute rights (not endangered) at the hazard of losing the last vestige of carry right. Resolved, lid, Till at. as Georgians, whose feal ty to State rights /.j testified to hg so many hard fought battles , we feel it equally our right and duty, to denounce iu Georgians, of whatever positions, all conduct official, or idividud, which has for its tendency the production either of disaffection at home, or discourage ment. ip the army, and those who persist in their efforts upon abstract questions of eon-ti tuFiona 1 rights to engender discord and strife, rather than promote that harmony of senti ment and action among the whole people, so much desired, are, so far from commending themselves to us sis patriots, thereby daily be coming the objects ot suspicion and just in dignation. Resolved , 4th, That but little less disreputa ble and worthy of denunciation is the unpa triotic conduct of the following classes : Ist. Os those able-bodied Georgians who, instead of entering'the ranks of their country's defend ers, have taken refuge, under the wing ot State executive protection, as State Mditiu Officers. 2d. Os those able-bodied kid glove \ gentry , who by virtue of means inherited, are ; either dodging behind the property exemption i clauses of Congress, or perverting tne honest earning3 of their forefathers to the villainous purpose of bribing Medical Examining Boards and Enrolling officers. 3d. Os those agents of despondency famil iarly known as rrorfkers, whose magnifying optics, convert every little reverse into igno minious d> feat, and utter ruin. 4th. Os that large class of speculators and extortioners whose worship at the shrine of Mammon has done more to produce the present financed difficulty than ad l other causes combined, and should, loDg since have received Christ a i treatments of the money changers of Jerusa lem and been, kicked out of the country. Resolved, stb. jTliat we hereby* call upon our friends at Rome, to yield neither to the seductive influences of the demagogues, nor ihe persuasions ot the faint-hearted, but to stamp with the ban of their disapprobation and contempt everything tending to obstruct, or retard the cause of our national indepen dence. j Resolved. Cth. That we re- affirm our confi | deuce in, and our admiration for our great j and guvid chief, our General, Robert E. Lee and that under his leadership, we will go, con fideni of victory whenever and wherever he directs. Resolved, 7th. ,That while the privations and danger? of the afnay, have u charm* for us. we ehe= i fnllv submit to them even unto death, tor Ihe sake of our nalioaaiitv and *nd. pendency and that we will never lay down our arms until they are obtained Lieut. Gen. R. 3 Ewell being present wa3 loudly called for. The General 9aid, “he could ! make as good a speech as ever was heard, if j he could get it out, but laboring under that difficulty, He bogged to be excused.” On motion oi Lieut. Col. Lowe, 31st Georgia Regiment, A was ordered that the proceedings $3.50 Per Month. ol this meeting be forwnrded for publication to the Riehmoud and Georgia papers. Du uioiion, the meeting adjourned. JulIN H. LAMAR, Col. 61st Ga. Regiment, Chairman, A. J. Liles, Adj t 26th Georgia Regiment, Secretary. - Kentucky. All eyes are turned for the moment in she direction of Kentucky. The tramp of Forrest’s leghorn are shaking the “dark and bloody ground, ’ and, if the telegraph speak truth, her hills agniu echo the war-cry of Morgan and his men. Tearing railroads, sinking river boats and destroying Federal property, will be the order of the day with this brace of hetoes. We presume they hav e not sufficient force, nor are provided with appliances, to attack strongly fortified positions, but by a thorough destruction of Thomas', or Sherman’s means of communication, they may compel his with drawal from Chattanooga. We trust that the report of the success of Forrest’s recruiting operations in the State may prove true. Ken tucky now fully understands the nature and object of Lincoln's war, and if her true men ever intend to get from under the Yan kee yoke, now is the time to declare and exe cute the purpose. Yaitb.ee Prisoners at Anderson ville. If some arrangement for the exchange of prisoners is not speedily effected, we very much fear the Confederacy will derive but little benefit from it. A few days ago, while the cars were at Andersouville, we learned that the mortality among the Yankee priso ners af that point was frightful. One of the guard informed us that fifty-two died on J lie previous day, and that since their arrival, (lie average of deaths per day, was thirty-five. Small pox,"pneumonia and dinrrhoc, are tak ing tin m off by wholesale. The cartel takes no account of dead men, and hence we trust that the exchange may be resumed before the ranks of these eight thousand prisoners are much further depleted Culture of Vegetables. - There is nothing we shall want more during the coming season than an abundant supply of vegetables. The army will need them to preserve its men from scurvy. The people will need tffem to make up for the inordinate price of meat. It is the duty as well as the interest of everybody to cultivate as large a quantity as possible.— There is not a yard in any city or town which should not be made to contribute something towards the general store. . Among Ait her iu- Uiw\crufcuta. it may be mentioned that vegeta bles, with few exceptions, are exempted from the tithe, and that they are not taxed beyond the income tax on the profits bom their sales. A little attention and a little labor given to this end would do incalculable good.

The notes, says the Richmond Examiner, are-oil fine paper, and the lithographing is very superior. The left hand face of the note is embellished with the figures “500 nt the top; a representation of the old style Confederate flag, and beneath the national seal and motto. On the right is the figures “500,” and beneath, a tolerable life-like portrait ofthejate “Stonewall’’ Jacd\- son. But the artist, possibly not satisfied with his counterfeit presentment of the hero, has inserted beneath, the explanation, “Lieu tenant General T. J. Jackson.” This is the fault we have to find of the artistic execution of the note. t A North Carolina, officer, who, with the reg iment to which he he is attached, share.d the perils and the glories of the battle of Seven Pines, writes a long letter to the Richmond Sentinel to express his deep sensibility at in. formal ion be has received to the effect that the plough-share lias not spared the grave.; of our soldiers buried the on field, for even the brief two years which have since passed by. With a bitter sorrow, he condemns the sacri lege as evidence of a “cruel and ungrateful heartlessuess that must excite feelings of hor ror wherever known.

In that valuable periodical, (he Medical and Surgical Journal, the April number of which has just been published by Messrs. Ayres \ \\ ado, we find the following most rema'ikuble case ol a recovery from a gun-shot wound in the lung: Mr. R. D. Q., 22 years old, of scrofulous temperament in January, was leaning on lus gun, the muzzle in contact with his left side when it exploded, tearing a hole in the chest of three or four inches in diameter, cairvinc with the load of shot fragments of (he third fourth and fifth ribs, and the whole of a very large, heavy English gold patent-lever watch except the ring to which the chain was at tached, which, singular to sav,.was found in the lining of his waistcoat, on the.right side. Dr. Seld&n found the patient apparently about to expire, and, trom the impending suffoca tion upon the ingress of air within so large an openihg, he could make no exploration of the wound. Closing the wound idfch a large compress and bandage, opium and stimulants were freely administered. Reaction took place, and in a fortnight- sufficient adhesions were estab lished to permit exposure of the cavity of the wound and to remove the metal face of the watch from some six inches from the bottom jof the wound. For several weeks, fragments us the watch continued to present themselves ! ;i nd were extracted ; from the diaphragm, other below the clavicle. The lung collaps ing. was not torn to piece, though wounded in several points. Both the heart, jeovered by the pericardium, .and iho aorta Were ex posed to view and touch. SuppuratUi was enormous ; hemorrhages fre.quent. The col •lapsed lung became bound by adhesions The whole side of # the thorax sank. Sustained by every article of nutritious food calculated to supply an inordinate appetite, the patient’s recovery was slow, until the wound, progress ively reduced, could only ndmit catheter. The supervention of the taitiv eat r.vFiillique. during the progress si the I:4l =e olleree Ihe en viable opportunity of viewing the cause nf its production. Drs. Andrews and Higgins (whose patient Mr. D. was,) were perfectly assured that the bursting of the bubble on the auifuce. oi 1 fie pus was (lie rationale of the sound. Fragment? of watch and bone togeth er, with shot and other extraneous maiter«, continued for sometime obe ejecled by ex pectoration with sputa. Mr. D. possesses noiv every part of the watch except the hands, a considerable portion of the small •works having been expectorated. Tho openings into the lung were of sufficient size to allow a current of air to escape, and if di -1 ected against (he iiauie of a candle to e.xtin ginsh it. Mr. D.’s health continues feeble, bn Ns as robust as it bad been during the past nve years. fi fie Habeas I'erpii*. Gov. Drown, of Georgia, in his message to the Legislature, says that the writof lm beus corpus has not been suspended in Great Britain since 1080, and that an at tempt to suspend it at this time would cost the Queen her crown. Gov. Brotvn has probably confounded the writ of habea corpus with the veto which the law places iu the hands of the sovereign, and which it is said, has not been exercised since the revolution. The Fayetteville Observer has been at pains to ascertain the number of times the habeas corpus has been .sus pended since that period, and the result is anything but complimentary to Gov. Brown’s historical proficiency. Between 1B8!) and 1/94, it had been suspended nine times. It was suspended through out the British Isles in that year. In lifts it was suspended in Ireland during the lebeJJion, ainl again in lßf>3, during the insurrection beaded by Robert Km metf During the remainder of George •id s reign it was several times suspended in England, and again during the reign of George -hh in 1822. Gov. Brown suiely recollects the commotions in Ire land, about fifteen years ago, and the sus pension of tltf- writ during the time of their continuance. Indeed, it is the tirst thing a Minister does when there i? trouble in the country, and Would no more affect the safety of the throne than any ordinary act of Parliament. With regard so the Jaw of last session, nothing can be plainer than tb v power ot Congress to pa» it.
