Ca nsenpt t;ik Richmond pexts.vkl. o.v oioacis Taa Sentinel, the accredited organ of the administration at reffirriond, has devori > a (Jolumn of malignant abuse to Gov. Brown and ourself. This tirade of misrepresentation and calumny has been adopted t>7 the Constltu tlonqUst, having been trac'dtrred to its edi torial columns, it may, therefore, be con sidered ir. a joint attack by the two organs, one bring principal and the other endorser. We accept it an such, and shall treat it accord l.'igiy. A mote malicie ■<, un*crupulou?, and unjust attack ucou a l-'.blir- ehjt'.' ’f*-. we do not re member to have Been, than this arsauU upon the fair fame of the Governor of Jfficrgia. It is a tissue of wholesale min -presentations. To jup.ve this, it is only net :wyto quote a friugle extract ns a sarupto of £fao whole. The Ben tin el rays : While Virg'-nia banco nearly stripped hcr relfof her officiate, white Alabama and Missis lib- pi have done t!;o cam'-, the Governor of Georgia'ha- kept lift eon thousand men out of the servio-. 1 While this has bee? the earn, he lias indulged in very a- rhaonijun criticisms, be cause the defence of Virginia and other States wan not abandoned, and our troops concentra ted upon Georgia. Who can tell what differ ent fortunes might have attended Gen. Jobn tton and Gen. Hood, had Gov. Brown, allowed these fifteen tb-.-usao-l 1“ mb proofs to have ffoue into the b. ii ice That Georgia vrj, in vaded at nil may bo faitly charged _ upon he.r Governor. Why ho e uhl have disimUo per dorm so unequal ;t part in t*-o war, to withhold tifttf-A thousand menfro-.t she public defence, lor purposes which in. Vim’nia require on-y fourteen hundred, in Atetemm about a thou sand, in ,->]l- .- sippi a buodrrd an-i ten, is odd i ult to unlit rotund, and i.- slid harder to i* oou ctfe to a be; oming Bence of honor and cf duty. Jt is hardly necessary to etiy to the people of Georgia licit too assertion of the Sentinel, that Gov. Brown has kept dflevn thousand men out of Uio service, is totally dertitute oi truth.— Tjiey know that, lie has kept none out of the service who should bo in it, but on the con trary has order; and all from sixteen to fifty-five, capable of bearing arms, to take tho field sgainta the inva-ler. As fir back i-.s last spring, when Sherman began bis advance into Georgia, lli-.i Governor ordered nearly ail tho . I.ac- olbcevs, including the officers of the militia, to take the field for th%defence of tli« Stale, jn response to that call, a largo fore.- was crg.ttizdd under tho command of Gt -i. Gustavos W. Sffliih, which rendered gallant end efficient service in the de fence of Allan! i. receiving the highest expres sions of approbation from noth Goua. Johnston and liood. And since tho fall of Atlanta State force, composed of these .--one State officiate, ae foully aba ;--l and misrepresented by the Sentinel, has been engaged in cheeking tho advance of an army four ti.nea Its size, and lighting I ittlea with I m courage and heroism of veterans* And at this moment U is gallantly j) u ticipating iu Ilia d-.d'euco of Bavaunaii. ■ Vet, jn tlio'la-j-i of tii.taa notorious facie, kumvu to thew/hole’.couulry, and which have already .pi-orai into history, the government organ levs tlm assurance to bouul and taunt those noble and patrlot-e man as bi n j-nroofs, m skulkers fron»their c lu-u-yh; per.-ice, under ouver of tho Governor'a exemption. At the very moment, perhaps, when their assailant, ealely ensconce 1 behind his editorial desk, wan penning tbi* insulting epithet, the men to whom he apple'l it, wovo with a courage and .gallantry which b tvj elicited the admiration and appla use of their countrymen, baring lhuir breasts to*he- bullets of the enemy , am! lighting with tho constancy of veterans, to belt dfofl!*.-sr It iroio Georgian* who are now battling in de fence of th-irbttU ■ .1 country, and of Ihe gal l.int dead who have i'.i!!-mi io tho struggle, we repel this opprr-bvioud in.v.-!!, and call upon tho Sentinel and its backer, the Constitutionalist, tj prove or retract;their assertions. Wo go farther, and defy either ot thorn to point 1 out those fifteen thousand Georgians, otherwise liable to military duty, who rue kept out ot the service by Gov. Brown. The (wseition is a sweeping on \ It is made with arithmetical exactness, and without any abate ment or exceptions. It is specific and unequiv ocal. Let us then have the proof of it, or let it be retracted us the unfounded misrepre sentation which it is. Tho honor of Georgia is involved iu this serious charge, emanating from the organ of the administration at Uxhtr.' i.d, and vouched for by one of her own newspapers. Ho great er elur coil'd Iks* east upon her character than that in this hour of her extreme peril, when engaged in a death struggle with a pow erful and rulld- i ? fao on her own soil, fifteen tnousaud of her able-bodied citizens are with holding their arms from her defence, under exemptions from her Governor. But we me J.nppy to be able to pronounce the charge as baseless as it is malignant. The public pro clamations of tho Gov, i a or, pit served among tho archives of the State, and the record of the prevent struggle, will enable the future histo rian to give it a flat contradiction .■ It 13 BBMCfiSSHy for U3 tO DOtIOO tilO lilt U etroud assertion of the St:iitin«-1, *• I hat Georgia was invaded at aU may be fairly charged on licr Governor." Ite historual falsity isf too jialpable to require refutation. It is a dis covery undreamt of before, that Georgia lias failed to furnish her full, quota of troops to tile Confederate armies. ’I bis will be newS to her thousands of brave sous in Virginia who for four years have been gallantly defending that Mate. The slur comes with a bad grace from a Virginia newspaper, lint we ven ture the assert ion, without fear of successful contradiction, that Georgia has come as fully up to her duty in lids particular as Virginia or any other State: and that Lor Governor has been excelled by cone in his untiring .real and efforts both to raise and sustain troops for the defence of the South. can ascribe this viru.erit p.ivl unscvu.'U— lous attack of the administration organ upon our worthy Governor to but one motive—a well founded jealousy of bis great and in creasing popularity throughout ihoSoiiib. the result of his ardent devotion to the cause of Southern independence, ami the manly stand he has taken; in defence of ths rights and sovereignty of the States against the attempt ed encroachments of the central government. At all hazards, his increasing popularity muit b) chicked. But we would caution the organ, in its future attacks to keep a little more with ir the bounds of truth ard probability ; ar-d, before it again a'leinpts id meddle with the affairs of Georgia, to at least possess itse'd of soino correct information in reference to them. As to the animadversions and slurs upon ouiself, we regard them with equal indiffer ence and contempt. We adhere to the position that a sufficient share of the military forces of to a States has been committed to the hands cf the President, and tint Geo: gia should retain the con'rol of the remnant left for her own de •e-c-i. tad tee maintenance cf her sovereign ty. We are happy to know tha'.Gov. Bonham of South Carolim has taken the same position, and is austaii edin it by that State. The rebuke which we gave Mr. Staples, the introdurtr of an important resolution intended to dictate to the Governors of the States, as to the officers necessary for the administration of their respective governments, has been moie emphatically reiterated by the' Confederate House of Representatives, in Us rtjectiou of the resolution. The stale and oft answered slur upon us that we are from New England could only emanate from an -opponent bard pressed to sustain a tottering cause. What that has to do with she correctness or incorrectness of our posi lions, a diecerntug public is uuufbe to see. We regard with equal scorn and defiance the nar row spirit that would seek to make invidious distinctions among our people, and excite prejudice and distrust against Southerners of Northern birth who, as officers and privates in our armies, and as citizens at home, are giviug their blood, their means and influence so (he support of the Southern cause,' and have indentified their fortune? and their nil with iis success. Such a base and unworthy effjrt to excite sectional jealousy and prrjudico among our own people could only have originated from ttu editor fresh from tho purlieus of Washing ton city, ibat political Sodom, reeking with political corruption, chicanery and trickery. Tho Sentinel editor, when he started South, ought to have left his bad traits and vicious tricks behind, lie will find they will do him no good ottside of Richmond. Yaxeru Cotton Tkach Reuclattons—The Louisville Journal gives us an entirely different, version of the rules prescribed by the Yankee Government to regulate the cotton trade, from that lurniahed by the Memphis journals some ilays since. Three agents are to be appointed, to ha located severally at Nashville, Memphis and New Orleans. They are to purchase, on account of the Government, all cotton brought into them at two-thirds cf the current rates in New York city on the day of delivery. But the cotton in districts yvhere slavery has been abolished under tho proclamation of President Lincoln must have been raised by compensated labor, if it is the product of the present yeai. Tennessee is excepted from the scope of the proclamation, as Kentucky and other States were by tiiat instrument. Tho payments to bo made by tho Governwenf agents fur those purchases, will be one-third in cash gad uvo tiiinfs iu certificates of indebtedness, which certificates will he taken up r -s BWP as the agents have time to send the cotton to New York, t-ffi ct its gale, and receive proceeds of s.du If th. t (oltcn is brought from the States iu Insurrection, and it is the wish of the seller to receive in exchange or in part payment of goods, he will be permitted to transport Bitch articles as are not contraband of war tuwlhe amount of one-third of ids sales. These are the chief features of the regulations. * fa ■( up tub Road.— Welt urn from genlle raen up the road that the people are returning to their old homes. The Georgia Railroad track has not been ns badly damaged in some sectious as at first re coiled. The road from Stone mountain to Lithonia is in good running order, with the except ion of about one mile, which General Slocum’s corps destroyed afUr k-aving the main army, in their route tor the east side of Yellow riv r. From Lithonia to Alcova bridge tho road is completely destroyed. From theAl cova down to Oconee it is only tapped occa sionally, and can bo easily repaired. A Nkw Confeokrata Steamwb— We are in i', lined officially, by tbo London Index, that Lieutenant Waddell, of the Confederate States Navy, hoisted his flag on a now steamer, the SliPiiundoah. She received her crew, armament, &e., on the high seas,far from any neutral juris diction, and is said to V>o a better vessel than the Florida. Latest feom Gen. I’kice.'s Abmy. —A letter from Col. Olivy Taylor, written at Camden, Arkansas, under date Nov. 15th, states that G- n. Price had returned from Missouri with lhiriy three thousand effective men. He car ried with him eight thousand. • The'Grorgia Comekence, M. E. Church, South. —This body, which was to have met at MiSledgefille on 30*h November, is now c tiled by Bi-hop Pierce to assemble at Athens, oi Wednesday, A Mistake.—We tire happy to announce chat the statement published by us a few days office in regard to the killing of Dr. Wm.

'—We ler.rn that Mr. Campbell, ot the tele graph office in Montgoraeiy, has been ordered f> Atlanta to re-open the telegraph office in that city. The Fall of Crsbobsb. —A nobler and a b v a soldier never breathed iho atmospheres of the bat*la field than Major General Patrick Cleburne, who fell in the light of Harpeth Or€t*k. General Cleburne’s history, civil and milita ry, is too well known throughout the whole biographical sketch at our hands. Ho was an I ilhman by birth, and a fcouthciner i y adop tion—a soldier from choice and by education. I- r * serv 'd when quite a youth in the Br.tish service, where was inculcated those soldierly tinaii'ies ot discipline and training which have leudered him distinguished in the present war. Wiiea he first emigrated to this country he settled in Arkansas, where he studied and practiced law, and .in that profession had pre vious to tiie struggle, formed a partnership with the present Major Gsn. T. C. Hindman. When the war commenced, he enlisted as a private, was made Captain ol his company, was afterwards elected Colonel of his regiment, and hem one grade to another gradually rose to the eminent position he held at the time of Ids fall. Among his contemporaries he was distinguished hr soldierly quality and fora correctness of judgment in tue council of war and upon the field of action, which gave his opinion areat weight and influence. He en deared himself to hiadevoted troops, and was the admiration ami respect of every soldier in ; the army, by attention to their general welfare ! and by his gallant bearing upon ihe field, and dsis cool, intrepid behavior in the horn of bat tie. The country has not sustained a greater loss since the death of ihe lamented Jackson. The nrn>v of Tennessee monras the loss of its right arm, which has iwice saved it from dis aster.

Waller R hippies, of Vinjbiia. Sia: -In what purports to be a published synopsis of a recent discussion in the iiuuso of Representatives in Congress you are reported to have stated that the number of persons ex empt from conscription by- raa in this State in cluding the Miiiiia in State service, amounts to about 15,000 men. As this publication has produced a very er roneous impression upon the public mind, and as I cannot suppose you intend to misrepresent, or to do injustice to a State which has cone her whole duty to the cru-e and to ti e Conled erucy. and which, I inir.ir, - may say ut ciisDarageme: t, has had under arms (luring the past summer and fall, a larger proportion to her white male population than nnv other State in *fce Confederacy ; I take the liberty to publish this note addressed to you, to coirect an error into which you have fallen. Os the 15,000 men’to whom you refer, ail but about 1,450 are the Militia who now are, and most of them for months past have hern in ac'ive military service under the command and control of a Confederate General, confronting the enemy. These 1,450 are composed of Judges of the Supreme and Superior Cc-u. it, Justffi sos the 1 Inferior Courts, Sheriffs, Clerks, Ordinaries, Tax Collectors and Receivers, and are abso lutely necessary to the existence of the- Stats Government A largo proportion of them are over 50 years of age, and would not if out of office be subject to Confederate conscription. The Miiitia organized and in servioe, are composed partly of county officers under fifty years of age, partly of Confederate bonded exempts, and partly of men detailed by Ihe Confederate Government as a-irieulturlsts, So., who are held by the Supreme Court of this State, to be subject to miiitia duty, and have been ordered by me into active service as part of the militia. Much the larger part, how ever, is composed of boys between lo and 17. and old men between 50 and 55 years of age, who, under the laws cf Congress, a-e not sub ject to Conlederate service. Ail these must, in your estimate, bo set down as exempt bv the Governor from service in the Confederate armies, when they arc, in fact, exempt both by the laws of Congress and of the Stati?Legisla ture. I will remark further, in this connec tion, that the State officers in Georgia are de clared exempt from conscription', not by an thorifV of the Governor, but by a joint resolu tion of the General Assembly of the State. Georgia seceded from the old Union to protect her rights and maintain her sovereignty, ami she will, in her new alliance, neither permit the “entire machinery of her State Govern ment to be stopped,” her “Courts of Justice closed,’’ the •• authority of bet Magistrates suspended,” nor her “ State lines to be oblit erated.” Neaily fifty regimenis of her sons have spent years under arms in Virginia, apd those of them who survive are now defending the Capitol of that glorious old Oommonv. ealth,. while a powerful array marches through their own beloved State—occupies and desecrates tbeir own Capitol—burns their cities and vill ages, destroys hundreds of miles of the Rail roads of their State, and plunders them of their property, leaving their wives and child ren without bread. Their Executive asks for aid, and especially that the sons of Georgia may be p-irmitted to return and strike a blow in her defence. It is denied, and she is le*'t without an infantry force, while her Capitol-is the headquarters ot General Sherman, to confront his powerful army, except the Confederate Reserves in the State, and the State offl :er» and the Miiitia Re serves, amounting in theaggiegate to a few thousand men, many of them with but little physical strength to endure the hardships of the camp. Not a thousand men of alt her large number cf splendid regiments and battalions of veteran infantry in Confederate servio:, ware left upon her soil, or permitted, prior s■' thi occupancy of her Oapßol by the enemy, to return to her, when her territory was being overrun', her cities, towns, villages and private dwellings sucked ar.d burned. With these facta before you, I leave it to your own judgment ash, nisnof candor, which your character ns a Virginia R;.presoSt“ ,iv o authorizes me to assume, whether your pub lished remarks do just’ce to a State whose suns have acted as gallantly, and made as great sacrifices as any others, upon the soil of Virginia, and whether my State should with her late sad experience, turn over to Confed erate control her State officers, and her old men and boys, to bo taken from her limits; which would leave her perfectly powerless even to ward oif the blows from vital point.-, should the armies of Uio enemy again p iss o\ax her territory. Had tho-sons of Georgia been permitted to return to tho soil of Georgia, as asked by her Executive a short time since, the.army ot Gen. Sherman would never have passed over it, nor desecrated her Capital. Very respectfully, &c„ Joseph E. Iffiowx. Diplomacy. —We positively tefiise to accept the theory of Mr. Davis and his adherents that to gain independence wo must light to the last man and to tbejast ditch More than that, we believe but, few w bo found willing to car ry the war to that desperate extremity before making further efforts at negotiations. BUta-te demagogues may bellow (ill they grow hoarse that the advocates of diplomacy are traitors end recor.fitrnci ionist?, tut it will not check the advance of reason. It is idle to deny that the evar is unpopular, and those politicians are mad who imagine that the people can bo in duced tosacrifice the last drop of blood in the last diich without lurther effort to Fettle the war by negotiation r-s well as by brute force Ascertain as the rising of the sun, the senti ment of the country everywhere is for peace.— The soldiers oi the army think of it and dream of it. The anxious mother and sister and lather talk of it at ways. The people will at length tako this matter out of the hands of politicians end parly lcadeis. The change is as inevitable as doom. Men of reason and judgment begin to sec that the exhaustion policy may wear us out long before it does the enemy. We piosnm* ‘no man will undertake to dispute the.! the North by ap immense vote, has determined to enter ihe war for another four years. Docs any sen sible man bsjive the soldiers of the army are willing to serve another four years’ appren ticeship, without an effort at negotiation on the part of those who manafeo the Govern ment? Are the unfortunate people (f the bor der, oppressed by the presence of the foe, anx ious for four moio years of these tender mer cies, without some other tiiitn Ihe long defer red promise iof the returning Confederate arm ies which never come? Are we prepared to stand four more years of block uh ? Have we four years’supplies ol clothing for the troops? In a word, qau thocountry stand four more years of such a war under such a management as the present bluudeiing r.nd threatening and accoinptislfing nothing either by arms or diplomacy; It is worse than folly io tell the people there is no alternative for them but annihilation or independence. They know better. The pub lic servants had as woll turn their attention to this question of peace, and if lhey cannot de vise temedies for the relief of the difficulties which surround us other than the eacrilioe of the last soldier and the last reserve, they had at least better evince a disposition to make an honest efiort. —Mordgomery Mail. Secbet Sassioxs.—This abomination, which has changed our form of Government, and subverted the Constitution of the Confederate States, is still pet suited in by a majority of the members of Congress. We have uo longer a Representative Government—the Represen tative responsible to, and the servant of his constituents!. By a bold coup d‘ (fiat, the tables have been turned, and the servants have be come the masters of the people. Are the pa tient. tax paying, loyal people ot this Confed eracy, who have poured out their life blood like water, tmd lavishly expended their sub stance, to save the land from the despotic rule of Abraham Lincoln, to be cheated r.nd en slaved by a set of miserable political mounte banks and jugglers, as corrupt and contempri ble as the Illinois rail splitter himself? Are they willing to see the theory of Representa tive Government practically subverted? But how can they help themselves? Let them hold meetings, and request every mem ber of Congress who favors secret sessions to resign at piise.—jJMcts Watchman. • _t>! tknhiksisbe.

The reports we have been receiving for sev eral days past relative to large accessions to theaimy from .the citizens of Tennessee, we n ave room to belie ve, tmve iunoh foundation in truiln The atbmpts mHhe part of the Federal authorities to enforce the draft in Tennessee and Kentucky can lave no other tendency than to ice-ease Hood's army. An army officer: who has been in Decatur Ala., Knee the evacuation of-the ' post liv the Federal forces-, informs ns it is the umst strong ly fortified -position he-e.vcr inspected. Its im portance ns a rail road poitff, being the junc tion of the Nashville and- Memphis and Char leston roads, led the Yankees to expend a vast amount of labor, and i tie garrison was one of tne strongest they had on the line between Chattanooga and Nashville. ■ Genera!
