We desire such of our subscribers as may at any time wish lit'' direction of their papers chan ged from one Post Office to another, to inform <w, in all cases, of the place to which they had been previously sent; as the mere order to for- > ward them to a different office, places it almost j outof our power, to comply,because we have no means of ascertaining the office from which they aro ordered to be changed, but a search through , aur whole subscription Book, containing Severn thousand names. POSTAGE. It is a standing rule with this office, as wel as all others, that the postage of all letters and communications to toe Editor or Proprietor . must bo paid.

VVe have been furnished with the follow ing correspondence mid doenntent, with a request for their publicatior, in order to correct any erioneons impression which i may have been made upon the public mind, i by an i-ditorial article in a late number of: the Southern Whig. In complying with j this request, we cannot but express out I gratification at the readiness with which the editor of the Whig promises to make an ample explanation and correction of hi charges, although it seems to us that he should have been better informed before he ventured to place them before his readers as facts to be relied upon. We have, how ever, heretofore notietd the errors of that article, and any further comment on our part may be unnecessary. The mild, yet manly tone in wltic'i Maj. Nelson’s letter is written, will be commended by all parties, and his explanations will he perfectly satisfactory to every one. The ; high compliment to the patrirrtism and gal lantly of the troops under his comma al, contained itt the documents annexed will also he gratifying to every Georgian, Are such troops thp men to be used for the dis graceful purpose of browbeating free citi zens a-d regulating elections ? We should tliink not.—The imputation will be repel led with the indignation it deserves. Camp Call, Quarters Georgia Battalion, ? September 11, 1837. S Editor Southern Whig: Sir—l hail hoped that subsequent enqui- ; ry Would have relieved my command, from the suspicion which your editorial remarks in the Whig, on the 26th August, are cal culated to produce. I had th-refore, delayed this notice unlit after two other numbe rs were published bo ping that a notice on my part would be unnecessary—being disappointed, 1 have to ask of yon most respectfully, to submit the following documents and facts, through the channel of your press to the public. The Bat talion that I have the honor ol i commanding, was mustered on lite 20th November 1836 into the service of the U. Stales for twelve months, unless sooner dis charged.—At the time <>f the muster,- we had orders from Major Gen. Jesup, t pro ceed to Florida, which order was promptly complied with. The accompanying orders tmmbered from one to five, will explain why we returned to Georgia before the twelve months expired. Iu selecting 11 all County for rny Camp, I w s influenced by'the prospects of Itt ahh, and-tipple of s-b-i'tenct* til fnage, tit less t ost t-> the government than any other conveiiiei t part. ( tilich my orders required) offered, and I am proud to have it in rny powet to inform you, that from citizens of all parties, we received a hearty welcome. It is true that the discharge which « e all desire as much as you can, has from cir cumstances w hich we could not control, been delayed longer (han we expected. But I hope you are*too well informed, if all your readers are not, to suppose that thi fault is one of Governor Schley’s ormyself, for he could just as well discharge Gen. Je sup and the whole Southern Army, as he could my Battalion. And he, anti the government of Geor gia, had no more to do with the pay or ex penses inccrred l»y the Battalion, than they have with a similar command of the regu lar Army.—So far as regards the Regi ment about to be raised by order of Gov. Schley, as a preparatory step to meet any emergency that may occur in the removal of the Cherokees, it is true, that most of the Battalion have re-enlisted, but I hope it will be remembered, that many of these men .have served in two late campaigns a gainst the Seminolcs, and two against the Creek Indians, and I hope their presenting their bosoms to • receive the savage blow, aimed at distant innocence, will not debar them the privilege of defending their own wives, children and neighbors from savage butchery, should it be attempted. 1 will only add my regret, that circum stances have forced upon me the necessity of explaining to the citizens of Georgia, why a portion of the citizen soldiers of the State, after‘wclve months service by ail; and over 18 by many, are ready at any time to meet tiny emC. r £*‘ncy that may occur. Respectful) v C. ll.’ NELbx?N T , Major Commanding Georgia V d t ite-eri, Gainesville, Tuesday. Major N ei.sox : Sir —The documents, together with your note, appended on the back of your com munication, have been just examined b\ me.—Your request to publish them in my next (uiper, could not be complied with, for I shall not reach Athens until noon to-mor row, w hen it will be too late to get in a docu ment of sue!) length/jroiuWy. The article# to which you allude, that appeared in the Whig, wertj penned under the impression that you had been discharged from the U.

As I desire not, cither privately or edi torially, to do injustice to any one, I will take pleasure in stating editorially the facts in the next number. This I can do in a condensed form, and present till the facts that the documents con tain.

Gentlemen f—Permilone tfho has sti'ttg gled with you and for you, through the political contest against Nullification ; and for the establishment of those Union prin ciples which has saved the country from anarchy anti disunion ;• to address you freely and frankly, upon the approaching contest in October next. I address you as northern men,- not for the purpose <>f keep ing trp a sect io wa I feeling which nevcrshould have existed, or making any real distinction between Southern and Northern men ; for it has ever been my object, as well its a part of the creed ofthe Union party, to look on every citizen of the Union, wheth er he was horn North or South of (he Po tomac, as brethren of the same soil, identi fied in-feeling and interest, in the perpetu ation and prosperity of our glorious Union; but I do so because I hear it proclaimed at almost every corner of the streets, that the Nttllifiers tire boasting that they have the Northern men on their side.— You hold at this peculiar crisis itt the political affairs of Richmond County an enviable position ; and whether your influence shall be-tbrown in the scale which turns the fate of your County for weal or woe', depends upon what party you vote for. You cannot but be aware that the spirit of Nullification, like the undieing worm, is not yet asleep ; and hy whatever means the ingenuity of its advocates may endeavor to persuade you that it is no longer the question ami princi ple for which they are laboring ' with so much assiduity to establish ; I tell you that your quick perception cannot fix! to per ceive, that they are endeavoring to delude you; and with all their dissimulating efforts to change the question, its horrid features are still visible in the back ground of the painting. My object is to show you ;t a glance, from the history of the past, who are your true friends ; whether they have been the Nullification State Rights party, oa whether the Uu'-ou party.—Those of j you who have resided here as far back as 1831, cannot forget the vituperation and* uncompromising enmity, w hich was mani fested tow ards you and your rectiou of the Union by the Nttllifiers.—They denoun ced yon every vt'here—-and it was reiterated through their presses, that the whole of the | northern' people were abolitionists J rtrtd their constant anti itncetrsrng efforts were ( exerted to identify every northern man with ; them, for the purpose of arousing a hostile ! feeling in the South, that a dissolution of, the Union might be the result; and to such I an extent did they carry tiieir hue and cry, I that it became almost a part of their creed, to look tipon the man whose birth place was beyond the Potomac, as an enemy to the South. In this Unholy crusade ithosustain ed you? Did (tot the Union party through out the country maintain fearlessly, that the spirit of fanaticism was confined to a com paratively few of the north ; and that the mass of the Northern people, with its in telligence, were with the South and to their patriotism would we look for its an nihilation. Yes, gentlemen, and by that very effort of the Union party, to sustain the integrity of the North, it lost several thousand votes through the State ; for the Nttllifiers in their rockless course; scru pled not to identify the Union party with the abolitionists ; and playing- upon the (ears of all vvho held slaves, obtaitted ma ny votes, which were formerly with the Union party. These are facts which the NtiHifiers/twn »otc cannot have the hardi hood to deny. Can you after a recollection of these events, turn from the frit hds ivho have sustained yor, an I fawn upon the hand that has so severely scourged you ! 1 put it to your independence of character to say, if you can reconcile it to yourselves to de sert the friends of the Union, who are vour friends; Some of you say that the' Union party are in favor of the administra tion; and as you are opposed to it, yoii cannot Vote with them rti the State elections; Now pause and reflect, if this is to deter mine your course in favor of the Nullifi cation State Rights ticket ; if you are not as the old saying is, “ jtitiiplng put of the frying pan into the fire.’’ Analyze the creeds of the administra tion and anti-administration party of Geor gia, and make a debit and credit account between tlieih, and then count your gain or loss.

JUSTICE. From the Southern Banner, A WORD TO THE UNION PARTY. The intelligence which we are receiving from all quarters relative to the Governor’* election, is of the most gratifying character. Eve ry w here lhei n d ica lions of Go v. Schley** success arc favorable, and we believe he is every day increasing hi strength. We are trow fully convinced, that withugencrai tun* out of the people, bis election will be cer tain,.and that by a triumphant majority. But white we are congratul; ting our selves upon this cheering posture of our af fairs, it is the duty of .the Union press to call the attention of their friends to < tir sit ua ion in another rcspe. 6, and seriously t<» propound the inquiry.—What wiil be our force in the next Legislature .’ Are We trot in dangi rof being defeated there? Ami lif so, why ? We aic perhaps as little prone to anticipate trouble, as most persons, but when w, see a number of strong Union counties encumbered with a sup rabuwdance of candidates on our side, and only a full, and that a perfectly organized ticket npoti the other, we are led to fear that by otrr dimensions we shall suffer rn ei emy, onr inferior in numbers, to triumph over us. How it is in other quarters of the Sttate we we know not, but if present appearances should undergo no t h nge In several ofour neighboring counties, it will not be at all surprising to us, to see them giving Gov. Schley substantial majorities, and at tl>« same time sending nullifiers to represent them in the Legislature. . This state of things ought not to exist. The coming session will be one of pi culiar impoitancc. I Besides the questions of magnitude which ; w ill come before that body, it should be re -1 collected that all our State House officers > and most of the Judges of the Superior I Courts are to be elected. Although the I millifiers profess to detest the doettine, that “ to the victors belong the spoils,” is j there any one so stupid as to believe for a j moment, that shou d they have the power, I they will not appropriate all the “ spoils •of office” to their own use? And will i Union men stiffer this disaster to take place, j when by a little concert of action among I themselves, it can easily be prevented ? I We hope hot. We would entreat our friends | in every county where these difficulties ex : ist, to endeavor to remove them, remember ing that for the good of the cause in which iwe are all engaged, personal sacrifices ; should cheerfully be tn:ide fe I Mmiy frivolous objections ate also made 1 against some of oui 1 candidates, and these I ine constantly be.ing poured by the assldn (*ous nullifiers into the ears of union men, i<» 1 detach them from their principles-and their i friends. It is objected to one that he rc«- I ceived five dollars a day last winter, and • on this account he is to. be opposed, Tegnßl j less of the many acts promoting the gene ral good which he has performed—■against i another it is urged that he supported the’ j Court of Errors—to another that he wppr»- i sed it. Some Union men will not vote for j a tandlda.te of their party, because he was in favor of th ? great State Rail Road— another w ill lore votes from the same pw ty because he opposed it! These and sim ilar questions arc raised amoeg us, and upon these we fear some xvuriliy-member* I mav be d Leite 1. Wil! not our friends be ! warned tlgainst this suicidal policy? M ill j they not reflect that the great question which I originally divided them from their -vppo j iiejits still ixlss, mid that nullification, though often defeated, isstlll ns rife among tisas ever? The advocates of that doc trine are nut splitting apon minor questions. They do not support or reject t>nc'-df their ■ candidates in consequence of tilt Wages he.

This can easily beuctotn piished whi re all are disposed to servolheir country rather than theme, Ives. ; nod by ! doing this, we shall present an undivided ■ front to the common enemy, and iih et’atul conquer him at all points.
