WKi'.RE GEOfiUI 1 Is TO UK DKFI;\»KB. From an editorial in the Rebel of the 7th inst. We make tbo following extract: In tb s crisis we rely upon one man more than say oiuer. Georgia has* to-day a Governor o < courage and ability. We believe Joseph E. Bi„Wi to be a true patriot and a sagacious man. Georgia Is ibe Egypt ol the rsoutu, and he is its Jusepu in peis 'u, as wet! as m mime. It ho would de tenu Georgia-dun post is along the tine ot th> ( Tennessee river. Let him cume und look for him Beit. Ue will see a net worK ot bills, the ao> potent oarricsdL* usinre ever devised tor loco deience. He will distuver no other point wbiet presents any part ol the advantages held ou along tbo line now wisely chosen. Ho will not fall lo observe that ibis onsc lust, all Georgia it lost Tutn let bun return, put his hand and urns clea to the work, muster fits fellow-oil,zsn i, a> buss coutiuuua and march hither. It only to three mouths, it wilt be sudicient, und he and hit peupio will have re.gum lo ble-a God lot the ene ot tneirdoys. Tbo views expressed ia the above in xelation tt the deieuee of Georgia nro correct; for if the lint of the Tennessee River and Cumberland Moon tains is loet, our own elate will then become tin theatre of war, and North Alabama and Georgia Will be laid ojrea lo the predatory inclusions o the enemy. If we would save our State ironi thi horrors of iuv&siou it must be successfully de fended on the soil of Tennessee. . THE GOVtll VOn OK ALABtMt There is no gouijt oi ttte election oi Hon. Thos H. Watia to the Guoernatoruil chsir of Alabama for the iwo years ensuing. Mr. Watts is at pre sent Attorney General for the Confederate States, to which olbca he was called from the army bj President Davis. His majority is very large— probably larger ihan any man has ever receiver lb that State. Considering tno high charnctei *f his predecessor, and ihe absence of any vita Jitusa cell re the people, bis election is a higl compliment lo bis distinguißhed ability and ex tilled worth. An exchange justly remaika thai the Slots of Alabama bss no troer, better mar within her borders. He Is thoroughly honest ano COBscimticuß, and has, perhaps, loasof selfiib oi prrty tricxery about atm than eoy other public Ssa ol bis day.
