McDowell- For the Sourh"rn Federal Union. (aPorgia Moldirra in Virginia. A pleasing incident has been repotted to m» by a reliable gentleman just f om Norfolk. Y r a in relation the 4th Regiment of Georgia stationed in that vicinity, which is in strong contrast with the spirit of plunder, rapine ami violence, that characterises the invading army near them at For tress Monroe. A farmer in the vicinltv of the Ith Regiment has a large enclosure of cabbages and other flourish itig vegetables of the largest size. He has also a It* rd of swine, about "J'lO in number, of tin most tempting fatness, roaming about the prent ises of the camp. And yet he has not misse l a solitary vegetable or pig since the Regiment has been near him. Tite reason is obvious. Onr Southern army, officers and men, are gentlemen—many of them Christian men—engaged in a righteous warfare Let Ihe prayers of Christians constantly ascend to the throne of grace, that God ntay cover tbp|r heads in the day of battle.

If there ] •s any sense or meaning in the insinuation which! t conveys, the writer probably wishes to convey I ihe idea, that Gov B own has sent troops to the t seat of war in Virginia without arms. This, to ! the best of onr knowledge and belief, is not true : | tnd we call upon the editor of the Republican to ! show where it has occurred ki a single instance ! Every Company that the Governor has sent to ‘.’irginia, so far as we know, has been armed. Vo reasonable man would expect him to arm i l ose who leave the State without his anthori j fy or consent. Not only has he. armed all of the Tolunteers that he has sent, but at the request ot he President he has sent arms, purchased by the noney of Georgia, to arm some of the Voluuteers •f Y irginia, and it ili becomes any of the people of Y irginia to complain of Georgia on the score if arms. Onr Governor has sent no men there vithout arms.

From tite peculiar character of the omission noticed particularly in our issue of yesterday, itis clear ro our mind that tite intention of ihe framers of tiie new insjrumcnt was to alter radi cally the syst-m of representation under which we have so long and satisfactorily itved. by substi tuting an exclusively white for the old and well established mixed basis. Whatever .may have been tho intention of the Convention, it will hardly be disputed that such will be the legal effert of the measure. Every part of the old Con stitution is copied in the obuoxious section re ferred to. except that which defines tiie terms “representative population;” the unavoidable iiifi ieiice is, tiiat the Convention intended to re- Anotber important point of information is, that negotiations lor a loan had so far i n grossed as to have secured propositions from different parti- s and powers, to the amount of two hundred million dollars, upon the security i ff-red bythepmspec live cotton crop, or .that pnttion of ft which will •time into the han-'s of the Confederate authorities hrongh the confidence of the Southern people to their government.

It is a somewhat remarkable co-incidence that he was ushered in and out of life amid the dm of war, and all its tread incidents. His father, an aid of Gen.

The Savannah Republican has raised a ground lessalaim against the new Constitution on the allegation that, failing to make specific provisions for slave representation, it thereby abolishes it and CStabfisl'ctV H purely white basis. Ar. fitst blush we weie disposed to think the Republican’s al- legatioif trite, and that a capital defect, had been discovered in the new Constitution. YY’e certainly "should not vote for it or advise others to do so il it abolishes what *as known as tile "Federal basis.” Such, however', is Hot the case. The Constitution of the Confederate States, article 3, section. 2, pro vides as follows: 3 Representatives and direct taxes shall he ap pointed among (lie several States, w hicli may be included within this Confederacy, according to their respective numbers which shall be deter mined by adding to the whole number of free per sons, including tboSS bound to service for a term of years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three- fifths of alt slaves This piovision clearly establishes what is ''repre sent nt it c p. potation’ 7 in each and all tbe States composing the Confed-rate States. The Constitution of Georgia assume? that point to he settled, and declares as follows: S*-e. 3. I 'I’ln* House of Representative shall be composed as follows : The thirty s* veil counties having the iaigest representative population shall have two Representatives each. Evely other county shell have one Represeuiative. The de signation of the counties having two Repiesenta- tives shall he made by tiic General Assembly ini mediately after tl e taking ot iarh census. The term ‘representative population” used here can have no other reference than to the respective popu lation established by the Constitution ot the Confede rate Stilt* s, for no where does the new State Consti tution undertake to establish a “representative popula tion” of its own. Both were assumed tube harmonious as they wore tinder the Constitution of the United Stntes. YVe think, therefore, upon reflection, there is no ground for the objection of the Republican or our correspondent- Another objection to the Constitution ist liat it fixes no time for toe election of Governor, Members of As- sembiy, ite. This has no force A separate ordiance of the Convention, seep. 281 Journal, fixes all that, and is as irrepealulde a* the Constitution itself. Telrgroph.
