Excerpt from Correspondence Between Governor Brown and President Davis, on the Constitutionality of the Conscription Act Georgia has promptly responded to every call made upon her by you for troops, and has always given more than you asked she now has about in the field. 9 Had you called upon her Executive for more, (if her just quota, ) they would have been furnished without delay. The plea of necessity, so far, at least, as this State is concerned, cannot be set up in defence of the Conscription Act. When the Government of the United States disregarded and attempted to trample upon the rights of the States, Georgia set its power at defiance and seceded from the Union, rather than submit to the consolidation of all power in the hands of the Cen tral or Federal Government.
