Ffdftl the Atlint Uol.~ Octal ding-. ______ *7fce most uuraitigated dcprecators apninut tlie idea of resuscitating old party lines, and as a consequence, animosities^in our State, aie the leaders of that insignificant faction, within lier limits, who orginated the movement for a convention to assem ble at Milledgfeyille. on tlie fourth proximo, to nominate a canidate for Governor, to be voted for at the October election. J use the term leaders in contra-distinction to tlie people, the massas, tlie hone and sinew, the soul and spirit of sovereignty in the State, for tlie, reason that the latter have had nothing to do with tins ill timed and unnecessary movement, do not sympathize witli its instigators, and will, at the prop er time, repudiate tlie action of the pro posed partial conclave by an overwhel ming negative on its proceedings. Let us examine the present status of this question: Who are the opponents of Gov. Brown’s re-election? Who, in Geor gia, what class ot respectable citizens, have expressed themselves disappointed in the administration of the affairs ot the State as superintended, directed, and car ried out by the able incurnbe. t who now dignities and is shedding lustre oil the Ex ecutive office? Are the people, apart from the leaders in this unholy combination against a faithful public servant, dissatis fied with “the boy from Cherokee" Do tax-payers of the country desire a change in their Governor—a new and untried pilot in the dark and dread hurricane of revolution through which the ship of State is now passing, and which, up to this mo ment under the guidance- and superior u«n, flea* the pem*n the ntreut of 7 nor uutii UMy* ** LaU be e ■tfiitild hare to | tieo, and sail not exceed ninety days.

We country the same honorable and virtuous paths in their administrative acts, that have illus trated the entire course pursued by Gov, Brown. .

We country people care not who is appointed to office by Gov. Brown—the only tiling we look to is the results, and whilst these are favorable, we shall continue, to support him, the action of the nominating Convention, at Milledge ville, and the denunciations of his enemies to the contrary notwithstanding,” says the seventh farmer, and so on ad infinitum. Now, the people being thus agreed, and old party demarkations, and the bad feel ings engendered thereby, being happily extinguished and blotted out, why disturb the quiet and nnamity of tlie one, or seek to revive tlie rehabilitate, in all its wanton and experienced helmsman has made suc cessful head-way? If so, where, I ask, is the evidence of their disaffection to Gov. Brown? I read, I suppose, about as closely, as any man in Fulton county, and board preserved. Let us hold on to our pilot. The political barometer indicates oilier and perhaps severer trials just ahead of us. The common prudence of the peo ple, who are the passengers, will suggest to them that their cargo, their interests and liberties, cannot be so secure or better cared for and protected, than under the ex perienced navigator and commander, who has encountered many a rude shock ot wind and wave, vliose vessel never founders at sea, and who always makes port in safety at the. appointed time.

Harris and found him not wanting in the past—hence, they held on to him for a third term. They were right. Gov. Brown has been tried—we know he will do—lie understands bis office, its duties, and what is expected of him. That he will meet and discharge the re sponsibilities, of the office no one. not even his bitterest enemy, pretends to gainsay or doubt: But, another man may do as* well as Gov. Brown lias done, and it is setting a dangerous precedent to re-elect him fora third term! Dangerous prece dent, indeed! Dangerous to whom?

This is the question. It is certain that there is nothing in the Constitution and laws of Georgia to in hibit him from serving out a third term, or surrounding it is deleterious, dealing death aiid destruction to every living thing failing within the limits of its baleful in- fiuenee.

Gen eral Taylor, on his accession to the Presi dency. announced that lie had no friends to reward, &c., and what was the result? Enemies rose up every where by r a sort of spontaneous combustion. His adminis tration proved a failure in three months, and sank into confusion and disgrace, as the brave and honest-hearted old man, gored to death by his enemies, himself descended to the grave! This is history, and Gov. Brown is thoroughly- indoctrin- ed with its salutary teachings. He has not fallen into the error of some of his predecessors in office,but has wisely stecreil clear of the breakers, and the consequence has been, everything done by- him, every act of his administration so far. has been crowned with success, wringing an unwill ing voice of approval even from the very men who are now moving heaven and earth to circumvent him and thereby- dc feat the almost unanimous wishes of the people Travel into tlie country and talk with the fanners. “I was a Whig, and voted against Gov.

Gen eral Shields was a gallant officer in the Mexican war. Shortly afterwards be was elected to the United States Senate from Illinois, and served out a full term in that body-. Failing in a re-election, he left Illinois for Minnesota, where he immedi ately became an active politician and a successful one—the dominant paity there making him their candidate for the United States Senate and electing him. Thus he was restored to an official association with the greatest civilians of the United States, lie drew the short Senatorial term for Minnesota, and defeated for a re- election, he pulled up stakes and cut for California, from which State he now hails. General Shields commanded a portion of the Palmetto troops on a certain occa sion in Mexico, and after his return from the war he said, “lie wished he was a na tive of the gallant and glorious State of South Carolina.” General Shields gain- —! ed some credit in fighting with and fur the The Springfield Eattic~-Kciiab!e Account, {soldiers of the South.

It. is certain we have gained a great victory over the Federal troops. The loss on our side, as nearly as I can ascertain, is 200 killed and 400 wounded—some say more. The whole field for miles is literally covered with the dead. That of the enemy- is 1500 killed, and from 2,000 to 2,500 wounded.

Amos Stout, of Clay, and It. D. Kelly, and John Brookin, of Clinton, killed, and James Peter and Samuel Brooking, wounded, and a great many more whom I cannot now mention. No better men have ever shed their blood or sacrificed their lives in the causes of liberty- and equal rights, than those who perished in this great con flict. Gen. Lyon’s dead body* was given up to his chief surgeon. We have more priso ners than what we know what to do with. We earmot feed them. They have been treated well, and all their sick and woun ded kindly cared for; their surgeons were invited to come in after their defeat and attend to the wounded, everywhere beg ging for help and for water. I have nev er before, witnessed such a heart-rending scene—State, Federal and Confederate troops in one red ruin blent, on the field— enemies in life, in death friends, relieving each others sufferings. President Lincoln ought to suffer death for this awful ruin, brought on a once happy country. J. T. H. signs of the times indicate the movement to which we refer.

Don’t tell the people that Joe Brown is ambitious. If you do, they will spit in your face. A man without ambition, in Iris sphere of life, is a drone, a nuisance, and a curse. He brings nothing into the world and will carry nothing with lriin out of it, besides being of no advantage to it whilst lie in habited it. Gov.

The Baltimore Sun, of Friday morning last, says : The fact having been announced that a party of Confederate soldiers, captured in Western Virginia, had reached t his city, their headquarters, the Gilmer House, was besieged early yesterday morning by per sons who desired to administer to their comfort. Those of the party who were not well supplied with underclothing were furnished, and those in more limited cir cumstances found plenty of gold in their pockets w ithout knowing w hence it came. They were generally well educated and refined gentlemen, whose independence 1 of character wouid forbid their acceptance of aid, but it was pressed upon them, and put into their pockets w ithout their knowl edge. During the day they were visited by many ladies of the city, each of whom took with her some little present for the comfort or convenience of the soldiers— Most of them visited various sections ot the city, accompanied by citizens. At four o’clock in the afternoon tlie ve hicles were drawn up in front of the Gil mer House to convey them to the boat for Old Point, and a large crowd of persons were present to witness their departure. YY’lien they emerged from the house the people on the street cheered and from al most every house in the neighborhood the handkerchiefs of ladies waved from every* window. As they passed down Baltimore sheet, a large throng at the corner of South street gave them three cheers. From ev ery direction the people flocked to the wharf of the boat ; until several thousand were assembled, covering the wharf, the sheds, and all the vessels lying near.— 1 he soldiers took their positions on the af ter part of the upper saloon deck. At half past four o’clock the lines of the Louisiana were cast off r and as she left the wharf three cheers were given tor the departing soldiers. Krulurkj Roused at AVe have observed in our midst for sev eral days past many prominent citizens of Old Kentucky-, and their countenances were welcomed as giving assurance of their sympathy with our cause anil of their approaching union with their Southern brethren, for we have never doubted their ultimate separation from the degarded Northern alliance. Kentucky has been slow, but her places of power having been filled by those who From tbc Corner Stone. “There are no l*nr(ien now.’> So says every body-. Well, if it is true, let us keep so if wc can. How is it to be done ? Why by permitting every body to exercise his own free will and judgment in reference to those things in which lie has an interest in common with every body else. There has npt been for the last thirty- five years, nay there never has been a time, when this generation has had so good an opportunity, or any opportunity at all, of seeing the means by which parties are formed and the people made slaves to them. It is said now that we have no parties and every body says, “let us have none for the future.” How is it to be prevented?— Why, says some cunning fellow who wants power, “let ns have meetings and deter mine who shall be Governor and members of Congress and members of the Legisla ture.” V\ ell, a few met the other day at tlie Court House in this county and ap pointed delegates to meet in Milledgeville with those who may wish to join them to determine who shall be the Governor of Georgia. There is the beginning of the formation of a party at once. If the peo ple of Muscogee submit to it they are con trolled by that little squad of men and are at the head of the party*. But suppose an other dozen do not like the action of that few and call another meeting to send del egates to another convention at Milledge ville. There is another party formed and those who take part in it are the leaders. By degrees the great masses of the people are brought to take sides with one or the other, without having any regard either for the principles of either. But it is very- clear that if these men are authorized to act for the people of Muscogee the people are bound by their acts and ought to obey tlicrir behests—and if they don’t do it no doubt they will feel like complaining— and the man who does not willingly submit to the dictation of this little squad is set down as an enemy to be punished, those who do are, of course, friends to he re warded—thus some are threatened and some flattered, some rewarded and some punished until tlie behests of party be come as powerful as those of law and even more so. Aye, but says one of these fellows you had a chance to go to our meeting and vote, we gave you notice to go ; yes but I had something else to do ; and besides I did not choose to go, besides we have all agreed upon a time to elect a Governor and that time is in October and I choose to vote then ; and then too every man can vote as lie chooses. But these gentlemen who want a con vention arc very much afraid of a “Scrub race.” “Scrub Race ! !” YVhat is a “scrub race ?” Why just simply a race which they cannot control. A race in which the people are free to exercise their own judgment and their right of suffrage in the election of the men who are to at tend to their business. A race in which the people are not driven by the action of others to choose between two evils. A race in which every man can come up like a freeman and vote as lie chooses without having some pert jackanapes to watch and dog him and tell him that he is a traitor to “tlie party.” les, let us by- all means have a scrub race, one in which the people can discuss and determine upon the merits of the can didates without reference to the dictation of their masters. If a man wants to "be Governor let him announce himself a can didate, if Iris fiiends think him the best man for the office, let them announce and support him. The people will soon learn to know who are the best men of the country- and to support them. The press will not have to lie so intolerably about its candidates and its party—the system of bribery aud cor ruption which have been so rife in tlie land for years—will be looted out. Let the people then put a stop at once to this attempt to establish over them a moral and mental despotism and to array them the one against the other for tlie prof it to ambitious Demagogues. Let them look upon all these attempts to put the yoke of party upon their necks with suspicion ami repel them with indignation. Let every man retain his liberty to vote as he may think proper ; and they- will soon get rid of a host of these wire workers and wire pul lers who are seeking to bring them into subjection. YVhat man in the country who has not felt the galling yoke of party? What man who has not felt himself drag ged along by- tlie power of party to do things of which he was ashamed ? Don’t permit y ourself again brought into such bondage. Thv liruduky Ai inrd.
