[Pro longed applause] We have now taught a great les- Wmftothis Confederacy. It is now clear that nil purposes of justice of equality and of common liberty, our American institutions arc as strong as any that have ever been offered for the government of man. Put when they perverted to the purposes of injustice and fanaticism, of insult and wrong, that those same institu tions are powerless; and that when they lose that power which comes from right, that as far as the Amer ican people are concerned they are impotent and imbecile, because the heart of "the Ameriern people in re ality, beutß for wfimt isjright. [lm mense cheering.] We'then stand upon the right. We stand upon the iualicnablo right of a people to choose their own institutions, and that all just government rests upon the consent of the governed, and that any government that attempts to exercise power without this consent not only is unjust to a brave, true, and patriotic people, but that peo ple can defy that power, and they can conquer, and they can triumph. [Applause.] But let me say again, fell nv-cit- j izans, that I am in rather a poor j condition to apeak at this time of night, under the confusion that | comes from u noisy street, and I re turn you my thunks, and hope that there may be no events to sa Idcn the future, but that the present priori- j oils dsy .will ever be remembered a:id sink so deep into the hearts of a grateful people ns to show that by virtue and firmness, they not only can be* free, but prove to the world that they deserve to be free. j Loud and prolonged applause.] The G overnor then retired.

Departure o r the Burlffc Sharp Shooters Friday the T9th was an eventful | day with our jdoinmunity. <,A day, iu its record, associating mote soul- j than any in the half century of onr history. It was the day of the departure of the ] first volunteer company from onr county, for the site of war-—(the; Burjce Sharp Shooters) repress li-1 ing the best citizenship old Burke 1 —the first in education, intelligence, 1 moral position and wealth. The company after forming on the ; public square of the village, was cs- j cor ted by a detachment of the Au gusta Hussars and our Burke Guards, to the Depot. There n large concourse of our citizens con vened to bid them adieu. Many courtesies appropo to the occasion,] were tendered them, among which was a patriotic and eloquent address; by R.iliert Reynolds of onr county. Amidst the adieus of friends and ! relatives; the bustle of preparation] and tlif din.pf drums r.u&l 'fi'figy sh-Y assembly seemed strikened with I much agitation, and as we gazed up and down the line scanning the mar tial we were struck with a buoyancy of youth mantling in the rich fragrance of manhood, in al most every form. Though the warm heart had lit up every feature with! the glowing pride of a gallant fu ture, yet the soft shadows of those! tender endearments soon to be bid' adieu to, flitted off as if afraid j to leave, yet dureiug not to stay. The glistening tears of fathers, i «i piers, brothers and even dearer-ones, and the burning cheers j of devoted friends, commingled with! the soul's warmest benedictions, peemod more irresistible, than the j crushing batteries of a malignant ; foe. We heard a gallant mother in the aspirations of a bleeding heart, as she stood gazeing on the proud bear ing of the idol of her bosorq, ex claim, “ Mothers smile away your tears, we should pray we had forty sons for such a glory 1” What may such hearts not achieve, impressed witli the sacred obligations of duty, and incensed by the blow of a cra ven, ruthless invader. Verily ! the scene was one inten sified with those trying reflections, which can be written only in the ! hearts of the noblest conformations of our uature. Tho train for their transportation bore nnother detach ment of the Augusta military (the Clinch Rifles) which forming with the Hussars and tho Burke Guards, tendered an imposing salute. Then soon, all were aboard, and away they passed from us amidst showers of hoquets, bright cheers and a thousand blessings, which we here repeat, invoke! ng the protecting .'Bgis of the God of battles to o’er shadow them “even unto the times when perils shall come no more.” We give the following list cf names below, as they are enrolled on vellums in our country’s achives.— Borne wo may omit, because, from the hurry of preparation their sig ! natures were not taken. The editor I of the News and his attaches are all members of the company, and if the pride ot country and a keen suscep tibility of Southern honor, be the true safe-guards cf our liberties, then is our cau«o confided aright in the ■ trust W.

So longer is the win*;. conjecture, and in an earnest reality does the black serfdom of Northern It publi can ism dash its unholy fury upon us. The treacherous brigans of the “irrepressible cot ilict” have unfurl ed their dark banners to the tempest and the proud spirit of Southern free dom has at last cast off its shackles of forbearance and spurned the as sault in its wonted gafffftW. The call is for Southern sons to the de fence of her liberties aud her honor, and now the rush to her banners is like the coming of mighty waters. — Every soul i* 1 evened with theextu cv of the glorious panorama, and ivJtile tlie martial clart nnshcaths thousand swords, its shouts peal up-** wards to but. one Goddess and but' one God.

The Northern free | boOtcr may enlist his minioned mvr mvdous, and riot fo~ awhile in his lust of murder and plunder, hut the j vengeance of insulted honor will yet . throttle the base curl and thus strangling the filthy vampire, wipe I out the fetid stain from Southern i soil. The call not onlv demands strong arm." and willing hearts, but a ! so open purses, and of those who have it to give. Patriot ism nor gallantry canno^ 1 sustain our liberties or protect our j property without arms, food and raiment, and we cannot think there i is vet n Georgian so lost to honor or | his own self interest, who will refuse Ito contribute to the defence of the ; one or the safety of the other.' We have meu in our county who have I given both their money and their jsons, and self, to the common cause, and yet there aro others with their .thousands who have given neither. We ask such ! will they incur their country’s scorn and the con -1 tumcly of their race f Yea, even dare the vengeance of tlnar j>eople, 1 now to refuse their just quota to the irmir.t' iiifUi'seitif their nWn liberties and fnr-lures?
