The troops composing tlie fonrth Regimont have been more fortunate than most of tho Geo- giU Volunteers. They were among the first troops to arrive in Virginia, and were ordered to 1’ortsmooth, soon after the burning of the Navy Yard, which was then tlio post of danger. Al though they have changed their camp several times, and worked hard throwing up fortificatiens, they have had no forced marches, and have been suffered to remain long enough at one place to arrange their camp so as to make themselves com paratively comfortable. Their position has hven suf ficiently dangerous to keep up a hvaltliy excite ment. ss they have been almost all the time in sight of the enemy.

Again. “We have been opposed to the corrup tion and rascality of conventions for many years, and expect to remain so forever. Their tendency, design, and object is to take power out of the harms of the people, and coneentratf it in those of a few politicians, whose highest ambition is to se cure to themselves the spoils of victory The people have always been opposed to these cunning devices of the devil, and the politicians, and have only tolerated them heretofore because it was claimed they wet necessary to party success It i3 now contended that wu have no parties.— What excuse thou, is there for a convention? We hope the penjilc will tako this matter in hand, And whoever the office holders, office hun ters, and political tricksters may nominate, no Uf,ath matter how good a man he may he, rejuct by an overwhelming majority. Let them have a candi date of their own, let ns have a fair expression of of popular'opinion on this convention question, and our word for it, the honest voters of the coun try wiTl iay it '.on the shelf forbrer. We know of Tio better lime to make th* race.” Sonfhern Watchman Ang. 7th. been a citizen of Georgia aud resident of Milledgerille for twenty-five years or more, and wns thoroughly Identified, in sentiment and feeling, with his adopted Section. Oil* - of tlie Grist members of tbi* company, and lia\ ing been associated with many of its early members, in previous Volunteer or- ganfoiAfb ns: he had, by hriS'soMierly bearing, and military acquirements, and earnest co-operation with his associates in everything tending to pro mote the interests of the corps: made bimselt a favorite among his tollow-soldiers. one whose loss cannot easily he supplied: and Lis noble qualities of head-arid heart, his lively social dis position, his unselfish, active generosity ot nature; ever ready, forgetful of self, to accommodate or. oblige, had won for himself ao. onviuhle chsrac- amoug a wry extensive acquaintance ; and a name which will be remembered hut to loved by a large circle of triends. At the commencement of the present, political difficulties, ho warmly es poused the cause of Ills adopted State and section; and, although lie had, by reason of failing health, been exempt, for some time, from active duty in his company, mid sustained an honorary relation to it only; yet he was anxious to accompany his brother soldiers to the seat of War, and to engage in the activities of sanguinary conffict in defense of tbe rights and honor of his beloved Southern home; hut was dissuaded by his comrades from doing so, on account of iiis feeble health, and reluctantly consented to remain behind: lint, when the demand for additional troops called the Baldwin Volunteers to the battle-field, be could no longer repress his patriotic impulses, bnt at taching himself to that company, eagerly advan ced with them to meet the foe Arriving in Virginia, it was soon discovered is health was rapidly failing under the fa tigue and exposure of camp-life; and he was obliged to accept an honorable discharge from the service, and return to Millcdgeville ; where he suffered for two or three weeks, surrounded by Kind and sympathizing friends, and then fell into his last, long sleep—dying where he had long loved to live—lamented by all who knew him. Therefore, he it Resolved, That in the death pro tanto,” and evidence will be put in jthe hands of the debtors of this-fact, and •'preserved npon the books to be kept; anti further, the Government wifi do whatever i.s necessary by Treaty, when peace comes, to protect in fall its own citizens, who thus obey her Laws. Those who refuse or fail to comply with the requirements of tho act, leave themselves snbjeqt to the process of the courts, and the penalties de clared for delinquencies. t- The law condemn? all property, credits and rights in partnership or not. except' Confederate and State bonds. It applies to all persons in the free States, nnd not to 'slave States ; except such persons as bold commissions, civil or military, under the Lincoln Government, or snch as arc Cp- gaged in aiding and abetting that Govern ment in its wanton and mad attempt-to subjngate the South. When that day comes, we shall need no lafv or conrt?, for then her brave sons, witli their fathers, will all sleep in death on her countless bat tle fields. Alas! the convention, and a mighty small one it ! of our late brother. Charles Ogden, this company was, met. It did not dictate to us, a farmer, or a new man, hut one, who while we confess he is n Christian patriot, and learned gentleman, we great ly respect, yet one. vhn has often grazed upon the rie/i pastures, drank of the rrfnshtng streams, and feasted upon the golden fruits of party and of nfp.ee. But IDtfUi, “The race is narrowed to a contest between Gov. Brown and Judge Nisbet. The. chief objection we have to the latter is the fact that he was recommended by a convention. It is claimed however, that it was not a party convention, and -that the log-rolling, and other rascality so com mon in these bodies were carefully avoided in tho late ona. Tiiis'may all he so; but we are still op posed to conventions,with the, lights now before us If wo vote at all, we are compelled to choose be tween Gov. Brown, who is running for a third term sndjwho was never acceptable to us,and Judge Nis- bot, one of the oldest men in the State, who has had tho misfortune to have hern recommended by a convention. We think it ip our duty to vote for the laiter, ntider protest against all sort of con ventions. Wo hope he may be elected.” Southern Watchman Sept. 2i>. Many other papers, that oppose Gov. Brown have from, some cause, followed the same course, heaped terrible abuse npon conventions, and then yielded to king caucus. We earnestly hope the people will now decide the matter, whether con ventions, caucuses and politicians, are to govern the State. Judge Nishet may fin elected, the great loaf of the Empire State will be cut again, a«d the tempt ing slices axe to be handed out by its great almo ner, Judge Nisbot, embryo Secretaries, Comptrol lers, Superintendents of the State Road, then will ha a perfect clamor among a new pet for office. God grant, the proud name we hold in the other Statos, may still he ours, that we may continue to cost the Coufodeoncy as little as we do. thatour sea coast may be as minutely examined, the State Road continue to pay as it does, and if elected, the Judge’s enemies, (if he has any) may be able to say after a trial, as do Gov. Brown's, he has made us a good Oarcrnvr. i In selecting the Watchman, to refer to,,we have : no particular motive. The Chronicle & Sentinel has pursued a Jim Crow course in .Tcgard to con ventions. The Macon Messenger, and various other papers have acted on ilie same principle. It would almost appear, as if there had been for some purpose an understanding to cry down. conven tions to tiic people, and then to support tlie nomi nee of one. Even the Recorder,of, July 2d telly us—‘-We notice there is sonie difl’uretice of opin ion among our editorial brethren, and their corres pondence, relative to the mod* of presenting a candidate for tbe executive chair of Georgia.

Editors', As the election of Governor is near at hand, and the people of Georgia soon will decido which of the candidates they prefer for their Kxecntiye for the ensuing term, it be hooves each and every one to calmly and dispas sionately view the record of each, the qualifica tions of each, and then select tho best man. 1 do not propose lo disenss in this article the past records of oither: Lot (the people do that for themselves. I merely intend bri«fiy to call atteu- lion to a few facts in relation to our great State Work—tlie “W. & A. R, R.” This Road in all times past has been the great hobby upon which politicians of all grades have rode, in and out of power. At the end of every previous administration! charges of favoritism, corruption, culvert contracts, and a thousaud other similar complaints liave been advanced against the management, and urged as arguments why certain patties should he -‘oiutud,” &c.— This is a well known fact, and needs no elabora tion. ; j.- How is it now? Notwithstanding that Yapks, corporations, politicians and newspapers preusing every effort to defeat the present Executive, riot a w ord is aaid about the State Road. The reason is very plain. • Tfifi affairs' of this work' have been managed with so much prudence, skill and ener gy, that it has paid handsomely i,utn the Stato Treasury, reduced the taxes of the people, and ererybody knows it, and the opposition feel it would weaken their cause to argue against it when eve ry tax-payer would see the fallacy of their argu ment. That this Road has never paid heretofore every one knows ; that for tbe last four years, it has become a valuable source of revenue to our State, - f immense good, through a judi- cw.u- ie. is also freely admitted by all. . * v ~n to him who by jealously gnarding thein,«.,.- the State, by lopping off the useless encumbrances of this work, and replacing drones with efficient business men, lias succeeded in making the State Road a profit instead of an expense? This ques tion let the people also decide. Itut say some, because we get a new Governor it does not follow that we will get new officers for the Road ? This >s a very protty argument to deceive the masses of the people with, bnt politi cians know better The people may he led to be lieve tiiat the State Road will still he managed by the same officers, and still pay its handsome monthly earnings into the Treasury, and the faxes will stiff be reduced, and tho benefits to the conn- try still continue, from the fact everything will remnin the same on the line. Those who listen to tbis.doetrine and vote with this impression, and n change of Governors is made, will be most wofnlly deceived. They will find tiiat the eld adage “to the vietois belong the spoils,’’ is not ont of date, and that if a new Ex ecutive takes his seat, lie will bring with him a host of friends and hangers oil who as such con sider themselves peculiarly adapted and “called” to fill all positions from Superintendent to brake- man. ; 'ihe question then arises, what will be the future of the State Road, with inexperienced and iheom- petent men to manage its affairs. Look at the re cord of tlie past, and answer for yourselves. This may he denied, and it may be said no change is contemplated, Ac But I tell you that speculation is already life upon our streets, and this man and that are assigned to prominent po sitions on the line, and the remark it made “Wliat a clenring out there will he when Brown is de feated,” and similar expressions. Tho name of Lewis Tuwlin is used in prominent connection with the Supferintendency, and ill fact every of fice is already filled in the imagination of the op position, with the names of those who are opposed to the present efficient management. Can the people ef Georgia afford to have the management changed. 1 think not. But if they prefer to pay increased taxes, and be deprived of the many benefits which have accrued to them, from the skillfulmanagement of-tho .Weste|n *Sr Atlantic Railfoiad, of course it is jheir privilege.

Reynolds, in and, abont Randolph county, about twenty-five thousand Gen. Cox had between six and seven thousand in the KanawJia Valley, and Gen. Koseneratz is said to have fifteen thousand—some say eleven to twelve thousand. Thus there aro not less than forty, and there may Le nearly fifty thousand of the enemy’s forces operating in Western Vir ginia.

Lee and Luring have a superior force to cope With, aiiil tiiiat Gens. Floyd and. Wise are laboring under the disadvantage of a considerable disparity of mum beis. We tindersioiid that several regiments have been ordered from Lynchburg to reinforce our army beyoud Lewishurg ; and that still further forces will he scut forward to this same cestination very promptly. The news brought down by the Central train yesterday was that Gen. Lee had again fallen back upon his former position, his forward movement having been desisted from for some stragetic reason not transpired. The army of Generals Floyd and Wise have changed their position from Sewell’s Mountain to Meadow Bluff, which is on this side of the Sewell, hut further to the West, in the direction of Sum merville. The position they now occupy is upon what is called the Wilderness rohd, leading into Greenbrier county from Summerville, along which Gon. Koseucrantz is approaching with a part of eleven regiments. It was with a view to meet bin: on his inareh that Generals Floyd and Wise have proceeded up t he Wilderness road to Meadow Bluff. If the movement of Gen. Kosencrautz ha correstly reported, we may expect to hear ef another battle in that direction in a few days. The enemy considerably outnundmrs us, and the fight will come off. if at nil, before the reinforce ments just ordered on to Gen. Floyd will be able to reach him; but notwithstanding these circum stances, we are very confident thut onr brave little army, whose mettle has been twice tried and proved, will give a good report of itself. affairs or the coast ot north carq- ' LINA..

Hon. S. K. Oockrill, one of the receiv ers for Tennessee, appointed by the Dis trict Court of tlie Confederate States, in response to inquiries made, publishes the following, which, says the New Orleans True Delta, is the most explicit and de finite expose of the sequestration act we have yet seen in print : Nashville, Sept. 15. Dear Sir: In reply to your communica tion of yesterday, I state readily the out line of a policy that will best accomplish the object .of the government, in my opin ion. I am, however, an agent, subject to the control of the court; still, I de rive my information from the spirit of the law. The Northern States are waging a fa- Gcnl end vindictive war on the Southern -"itions and desolations on our border a. __ . i , - «fl ready sustained by our , v.^en will be. It is tbe doty of our Government to in demnify her own citizens; though unwill ing to. adopt such a remedy, no other course was left, after the action of the Northern Government. Those engaged in supporting and main taining this war agaihkt us, have propcTty, reil and personal, debts', rights and fran chines in the Confederate Slates; these the law directs shall be subject to the con trol of the court and its officers, for the purposes contemplated. In carrying into effect this provision, it is Dot designed to oppose debtors; a pol icy that establishes the fact that the debt ors recognize the Confederate States, as creditors, and not “alien enemies em bracing time that accords with a reasona ble ability to pay, will best accomplish this end. Securities from merchants may well consist ol notes on solvent customers, to payin reasonable installments, and such other laciiities as will make their country debts available in their protection. The debts will be payable in the notes of the Government, and not in metal as at pres ent. War suspends the right of “alien en emies” to their debts, but this is a suspen sion only, not payment. The interest of the debtors is promoted by the plan and policy above referred to. Liabilities should not be forgotten, this will keep them in a train of liquidation, and with as little inconvenience to debtors as the object and spirit of the new law will admit. Commercial credit is naturally sensitive, and a faithful and effective discharge of duty doe? not require tbat inventories, of liabilities, reported by business men, should be left open to the gaze ofthepnb lie. I will see that strict propriety is ob served on this point. Reports required under, the law will contain correct aggre gates, and. not names. A competent cop.-* ndential clerk will keep under key reports of j liabilities. ‘ “A settlement in full, or m part, with the phia are beginning to clamor loudly for the erection of fortifications and the raising of men to' project '.that-, pity of “Brotherly Hate.” ■ They aro entertaining for the first time a glimpse of fhfe fket fhat ih'yj^ibp; j? a-game at which can play, and that if there has been no 1 shell Southern watch word a^/?On to Philadelphia,” the thing itselfis not impossible.—Time wits when Philadelph ia did not erect fortifications and- enlist troops -to keep out - Southern Then !
