are some things in this letter which we have pub
fished, that will be grateful to the Southern read

upon the writer's head a double distilled dose ot
abuse from the Tribunes, Timeses, and Herutds ui

weigh much in tiie scale ot England's position
on the transatlantic U'ar. Cotton bags, in their

It must not he forgotien that Tuesday, the

people oi Georgia are to vote upon the adoption
ot^ tne new Constitution. While there are a few
objections to bo uigi-d against the new Goristilu

be ratified by a very large majority.' All cannot

Onbrrnntorial Comciitiou.
We should like to hear fiom the Fress au ex
pres'ion of opinion as to the best time to hold a
Convention ot the people of this 8tat>* to nomi
nate a candidate for Governor. The last oi
August or the first of September, it seems to us
would be a gooj time. All know that a Governor
has lo be elected. The best way to nominate him
is through a Convention ot the people, and ii i- j
only nece.-sary to have time enough between th. j
day of the nomination and the day of election
to get the action of the Convention well circulated
over tbe .State. Will not the Press designate some
time? Piimary meetings to- appoint delega'e*
should be held doting the next two months, in
all the count:**.

The past week indeed the past six weeks, has
been dry and hot enough. Gardens in this place
and vicinity are burnt up; and the forward corn
is almost mined. It i* f >riunite that most of th.

forward enough to be seriously injured if a good

intolerable: no rain has fallen here since the

the universal dry-up ish-ness, as Willis would say;

We confess, we have no patience when v.e read
that any considerable body of cur troops arc taken
by surprise. What business have they to bo taken
by surpiise ? Y'et we hear that a company ol
horsemen at Alexandria were taken by surpiise,
and captured of course. Our troops at Fairfax
Court-house, were taken by surprise, when it is
known they were sent i here on purpose to watch
the enemy, and yet they were taken napping.—
But worst of all, the troops at Phillippa, were
taken by surprise, although two heroic girls rode
forty miles to warn them But the men did not
heed the warning, and were taken by surprise,
and were forced to retieat and leave many valua
ble grins behind them. There is always some
criminal negligence or treachery, when an army
is taken by surprise In al! such cases, some
body is guilty, and should he severely punished
It is high time that these surprise cases were en-
Irom all who heard ir.
