Some of the leading citizens of Henry county having nominated their representative in the House of Delegates, Wm. Martin, Esq., to a seat in the Convention, that gentleman responds in a brief card, stating that the position is one neither to be sought nor avoided; but considerations which he believes will be satisfactory to the people of Henry, when stated, render it proper that he should decline the nomination.

the suffrages of the "dear people," two for the Senate and four for the House of Delegates; but with all their canvassing, and the great love they evince for the people, forsooth, they do not create the least excitement. They are all patriots and good fellows, and we wish them an abundance of success. We are glad to make public the following statement, sent to us by a correspondent at Franklin Court-House: I see it stated in your paper of the 10th that Franklin, Patrick and Henry counties, are the only ones in the State that have not offered volunteers to aid in defending the State from hostile invasion. This, I am proud to say, is not the case. Franklin has three companies, as brave and fearless as can be mustered in the State, two of which have been offered to the Governor, but, as yet, have received no commissions; the other will be offered in a few days. Patrick has one company, and more are being raised. Henry has several.--These counties have been slow, but you

Part of these goods, Love is said to have received. The military commission found him guilty of the first and second charges, and of the spse that he was found guilty of having taken was taken by order of his commanding officer, and against his wishes. He spoke of his family. His father had died seven years ago, and he left that they would meet in heaven. He was a native of Henry county, Tenn, where his friends still reside. His family was respectable, and his own character unsuited. He desired that his remains should besent home, or that his grave be marked so that his friends could get his body.--He advised the soldiers to b
