The 43d Georgia regiment was cut all
to pieces. Col. Skid Harris was mortal
~ wounded on Saturday, in the left
thigh, and bad il amputated on Sunday,
and died shortly tf,erwar6s
DR.. Ford, late of this place, offers his
professional services 10 the citizens Of
Atlanta.
The Lntelhgsncer publishes a somewhat
long correspondence between = number
Of citizens of Augusta, and Gov. Brown,
in which the former urge the Governor
10 become candidate for recollection.
The Governor, in his letter, oonsenting
to be a candidate, says:
While we have no reason to despair Of
ultimate success, which is certain, if we
are true TO ourselves, and humbly place
our trust in God, we all feel that the
period is one of darkness and gloom, and
that there is a demand for the most en-
ergetic efforts of our ablest, wisesi, and
most experienced statesmen TO guide us
safely through the storm.
Referring to his controversy With JEFF.
Davis, be says:
Having entered into this revolution in
defence of the great doctrine of States
rights and States sovereignty, we would
be untrue to ourselves and our posterity
we're we TO permit these great funda-
mental principles TO be disregarded or
trampled under foot, at any time, by any
one, no matter what may be his position
While, however, we should restrain
the Confederate Government within the
limits assigned by the Constitution, we
should at all times, sustain IL with the last
dollar and the last man, If need be, in
the Just exercise of its rightful, cOnsti-
tutional jurisdiction. And we should
oever, under any circumstances, consent
70 reconstruction of the old Union, or
TO any political union with the Abolition
states, upon any terms whatever. Nor
should we ever lay down our arms till
the independence of these Confederate
States is Internationally recognized.
The Lntelligsaoer adds;
We feel confident that large majority
If the people Of our State desire that
Governor Brown shall continue, for an
other term at least, TO occupy the Execu-
tive Chair, and, 80 impressed we do hope,
that az the coming election there will be
no contest in the matter.
SO we infer that Brown stock rates
higher in Georgia than that of jeff.
Davis.
The Knoxville Register urges the i'm
portance of electing a legislature next
August and remarks:
To let it go by default is to give our
enemies az home and abroad, dangerous
aud decided advantage. While zoe t0ould
Be t0illng to let the election for Governor 90
,nlnoticed, as Governor Harris can hold ovey,
and aCsH do as t0eH as a SUCCESSOR g0iH do,
this course cannot be pursued in regard
to other positions named. We must have
an election for member Of the Legisla-
ture, at the regular time or in default,
LIT go piece OF machinery of Govern
msnt, and TO that extent disorganize it.
The cool remark about King Isham,
made no doubt at that miscreant's sug-
gesiion, is amusing. The Register sees
trouble ahead among it's friends, and
says:
We fear we see latent disposition
which forces itself out now and then, TO
restrict both by an attempt to create a
Jealousy between the civil and the mill
tsry, between soldiers and citizens.
We assure the Register that the trouble
will not be worth minding, for long ere
the sixth of August, King Isham, the
Confederate army and the Register will
have fed the borders Of Tennessee.
The Register thus notices Vallandig-
ham-the fellow whom our soldier friends
like so WE'LL
VALLAEDIGHAM.-T This distinguished
champion Of liberty is ahout to receive.
at the hands of the Lincoln dynasty, a
most unexpected punishment for the high
ofIense of speaking his sentiments to the
people of tho once boasted "land Of the
free and home of the brave" His pun
ishment is cOmmuted from Punishment to
particular place to banishmsnt to the
Confederate States generally. We have
no objection TO the advent of this Hon.
orable gentleman in our midst but fear
it is an example and punishment 90 de-
sirable, that il will be initiated and
sought after until we may be overrun
with friends.
But the danger in that direction may
be remedied. We propose to swap few
patriots with Uncle Abe. We have a
surplus hereabouts, and would rather
spare them than not. What say our Lin
coin fricnds2 We have our minds eve
on several leading spirits who would be
turbulent did they dare, and who pretend
TO love the old Union with all the heart,
that we would like to exchange for VAL
landigham. Come, gentlemen, here's
your chance to regain your paradise lost,
to go home to your kindred and 10 your
kind. Show your faith by your works.
Birds OF q feather flock together.
