An Interesting Occasion. —Miss Maggie Mitch
ell is creating quite an excitemeut and enthusi
asm among tlieatre-goerß in Montgomery, Ala.

Marseillaise withjhrilling effect. Just previous to
the singing, one of the citizens presented her with
a beautiful flag— lone star of Alabama”—
prefacing it with a neat and highly complimentary
speech ; to which Maggie replied in a very felicit
ous manner—which speech, coupled with her in
imitable dramatic action and grace, “brought
down the house.” Everybody was delighted.
Good Times for Sportsmen. —Our sportsmen
are having a jolly time about these days. Wild
ducks are said to be quite plenty along the river,
a id our Nimrods are taking advantage of the fact,
and bring home heaps of the slain as the result of
their sport. The steamers which arrived here on
Sunday, brought up full 300 wild ducks for our
market. One lucky sportsman alone had a lot of
117.
Among the game shot was a rara avis— a verit
able swan, of large proport : on.
Military Reviews.— The Washington Artillery,
Cupt. Girabdey, made one of the finest displays
yesterday afternoon we have yet seen them make.

them the four brass field pieces and ammunition
wagons of which they were lately the worthy re
cipients'. They were furnished with capital music
by the Augusta Brass Band.
The Oglethorpe lufantry, Capt. Clarke, we un

justment of the present difficulties between the
States” may be effected, and a “constitutional
Union” thus be preserved.

working night and day. No one is now admitted
inside unless in company with the Commandant.
The Sixteenth Regiment of South Carolina Mili
tia mustered to-day, six hundred strong. Their
strange appearance at this time provoked a good
deal of comment.
Notwithstanding the denial to the contrary the
President did receive, a week ago, the most dis
tinct and explicit assurances that South Carolina
will not resist the Federal authorities during his
administration.
Friday’s Meeting a Failurc.—There was a
large meeting at the City llall on 14th inst.,
called for the purpose of atetmpting toffiarmonize
the peopla of Floyd county, and run but one ticket
for delegates to the Convention. Several propo
sition were made, discussed, amended and voted
dawn, The meeting finally adjourned without
doing anything at all. We presume that now
there is no chance but to run the two tickets al
ready nominated. Let all parties keep cool and
LI as willing to be just and charitable as they are
to exact these qualities from others.-AW Con
rier.
Whitfield County. —At a meeting of the citi
zens of Whitfield county, on the 4th inst., the fol
lowing, among other resolutions, was adopted: “
That the Georgia State Convention make out a
bill of grievances, with a demand upon those
Northern States who have so violated tne Consti
tution, that they repeal their legislative enact
ments obnoxious to our rights and interest. Also
that the Convention imoeratively demand of the
President of the United states the strict enforce
ment of the Fugitive Slave Law, and should any of
the Northern States resist him in the exercise of
his Constitutional authority, that sucu State or
States so offending, be declared in a state of rebel
lion, and that the protection of the General Gov
ernment be withdrawn therefrom.
Wilcox County. —The following resolutions
were adopted at*a meeting of the citizens of Wil
cox county on the Bth inst.:
That we regard the election of Lincoln as an
effectual scheme for the abolition of slavery
throughout the Southern States ; unless some ef
fectual measure is adopted to prevent it, and that
we believe immediate, unconditional secession is
the only mode left us.
That we deem the election of Lincoln a suffi
cient ground for a dissolution of the Union; that
if the South submits in the present emergency
she need never raise her voice against aggres
sions ; but hope on and submit to the lash of her
enemies.
Schley County. —A meeting of the citizens of
Schley county, on the 4th inst., adopted the fol
lowing resolution :
That in consideration of the present darkness
which lowers over our political horizon, it becomes
us as a free people to face the enemies of our
Union, and to fairly arrange for a settlement of
all past grievances either in the Union or out of it,
as a last resort and as an ultimatum.
\V ebstkr County. —A meeting of the citizens
of Webster county, on the 4th inst., adopted the
following resolution :
I hat it is tne duty of the South to demand at
once the repeal by the Northern States of all acts
nullifying the Fugitive Slave Law, and to have
those acts repealed before Abraham Lincoln’s
inauguration, if practicable, or as soon thereafter
as possible, in order that the South may have
equal rights in the Union as guaranteed to her by
the Constitution.
Pike County.— At a meeting of the citizens of
Pike county opposed to Georgia’s submitting to
the election of Lincoln, it was resolved—
That while we are willing through deference to
the opinions ot others, whose patriotism we can
not for a moment question, to refer the question
of Georgia’s representation in a Southern Con
vention, to the sovereign direction of our State
Convention, yet we do so, solely for the purpose
ot securing, as tar as possible, united action among
the Southern people, having but little confidence
in the adequacy or etliciency of anv remedy that
may be prepared for the settlement of the accu
mulated difficulties of the past, or for security
against their return in the future, and believing
that whatever is to be done, should be done before
“the 4th of March next.
Milton County. —At a meeting of the citizens
of Milton county on the 4th inst., the following
resolutions were adopted :
That though we do not think the election of
Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency of itself a
sufficient cause for secession, yet we-complain in
general terms, that the anti-slavery sentiment at
the North, had been made the element of political
power, and that a large political party has been
organied in the Northern States the avowed pur
pose of which is to prohibit the extension of
slavery by Congress, and hostility to slavery gene
rally; and that they have passed laws nullifying
the tugitive slave law ; thus violating our Federal
Compact, and denying to us our equal rights and
privileges as American citizens; we think the
time has now come, when wc should demand re
dress for the wrongs we have suffered, and a
guarantee agaiust all future aggression.
Although we agree that these encroachments
on our rights should be resisted, and effectually
resisted, we do not think secession is the proper
remedy, but that it can be done in the Union—
that we can secure and maintain all our Constitu
tional rights, if we will but make the demand for
them and for the enforcement of the Federal
Laws, and in so doing, we will, no doubt, have
the co-operation of our numerous tried and faith
ful friends at the North.
Chatham County. —The secession meeting in
Chatham county on Weduesdav, inst., adopted
the following :
That in the opinion of this meeting there is no
course lett for the State of Georgia in the present
posture of her public affairs but separate and ; i
mediate action, by the secession of the State from
the Union.
Scriybn County. —At a meeting of the citizens
of Scriyen County on the 3d inst, the following
resolution was unanimously adopted.
That while we do not consider the election of
Lincoln and Iliunlin as sufficient cause for disunion
or secession, we cordially approve of a call by the
Legislature, of a Convention ot the peoplo.of this
State, to take into consideration and determine
the time, mode and measure of redress a ainst
existing and threatened aggressions upon our
Constitutional rights.
Carroll County.— A meeting of the citizens of
Carroll county, held on the 4th inst., adopted the
following resolution :
That we exact no pledges from our delegates to
confine themselves to any prescribed course, but
holding them bound to the great essential of re
sistance, leave them untrammeled to adopt such
such made and measure of resistance as the fuller
development of public opinion, the consultation
of wise men, and the exigencies of the times may
in their judgmeut demand.
Fayette County. —At a meeting of the citizens
of Fayette county on the 4th inst., it was resolved:
That we are in favor of demanding our rights
in the Union, and upon failure of Northern people
to accord to us every right to which we are enti
tled under the Constitution, we are then in favor
of setting up a government for ourselves.
Muscogee County. —The immediate secession
ists of Muscogee co., have adopted the following
platform :
That this meeting approve the call of the Con
vention by the Legislature of the State of Georgia,
to determine the mode of secession and time for
resistance to Black Republican rule.
That we consider secession as the only mode of
resistance, and that we consider the 16th day of
January, 1861, or as soon as practicable thereaf
ter, the time; and that we cordially invite the
co operation of all the slave States of this Union
in this mode and measure of resistance.
Pulaski County.— At a meeting of the citizens
of Pulaski county on the Bthjinst., it was resolved:
That we pledge ourselves not to support any
man to represent us in the State Convention to
be assembled on the 16th of January, 1861, who is
not pledged to the doctrine of immediate seces
sion, and separate State action.
Lee County.—A large meeting of the citizens
of Lee county, was held on the 4tli inst., at which
the following resolution was adopted :
We are willing that the proper indemnity for
past grievances, and for the f ture, peaceful en
joyment of our rights and equality under the
Federal Constitution, ample and complete, should
be obtained within the pale of Union if possible.
Should this fail, then separate secession should
only be entertained after every effort to secure
the co-opcratiou of the other Southern States
shall have failed.
Marion County.—A meeting of the citizens of
Marion county, was held on the 4th inst., and the
following resolutions adopted :
That we give to the Union of our fathers our
deepest and warmest affections, to the State of
Georgia and the whole South, our undying devo
tion, and to the Union as it is, our deepest and
most bitter hatred.
That we regard the election of Abraham Lin
coln as constitutional, and as long as we remain
in the Union we are bound by all the obligations
of good citizens to abide his administration, so
long as he conducts the government according to
the Laws and Constitution of the United States,
and yet wc can but look upon said election as a
significant fact, betokening to i j the permanent
ascendancy of the Black Republican party, and
the eventual destruction of slavery.
That we will abide said administration only so
long a time as will be necessary to obtain redress
for our wrongs, or to place ourselves in a proper
condition for dissolution, unless under said ad
ministration our wrongs should be redressed and
ample guarantees given for our future security.
JJJMKimvF.TnEK County.—A large convention of
Meriwether county, on the Bth inst., adopted
among other resolutions :
That in our opinion the convention of this State
should require of those of the non-slaveholding
States that have passed laws nullifying the provi
sions of the federal Constitution requiring the
rendition of fugitive slaves and fugitives from jus
tice, and allowing free negroes to vote in Federal
elections, to repeal all such laws, and hereafter to
stand to, and abide iu good faith, their obligations
to the Constitution ; and that Georgia should in
vite a convention of all the slave States, or of all
the States, if need be, and that in said Convention
the slave States should require a settlement of the
slavery question upon a permanent basis—in the
Union, if possible—out of the Union, if necessary.

possible to pay taxes.

riUIP undersigned, Agent for the above Fertiliser, in cm >e-
JL quence of its marked success the post season, and the. t
ly increased demand arising t herefrom, has made arrang e iis
with ilia manufacturer for a large and full supply; and ie-
Hairing greater facilities for storage and other iHvntnmodatkiu.
has taken the four story Warehouse as below, where lie will bo
aide to supply any quantity required, with promptness. He
may lie allowed to express ids satisfaction in view oi the tact
that of the numerous purchases made of him by planters, g, • .-
raliy for the purpose of making comparative tests with .it: “r
fertilisers, not one case has come to liis knowledge where < ur
Fertiliser has not.shown a decided superiority. Planters who
haTe used Manes’ Phosphate, now make it their sole reliance,
and are ordering (some of them) os much as fifty tons, for use
the next season, fills fact speaks for itself. Wo have discov
ered a quality, developed iu the drouth, which was be lure rmols
served, viz ; its hygrometric power, or eapacity, to absorb
moisture from the atmosphere, which obviated to a large extent
the late unparalleled drought where it was used, while m i
other fertilisers were not only valueless, but positively injurious
to the plant. The safety and profit as a money inve.lo.it,
arising from the use of M apes’ phosphate, are now placed be
yond question, and the experience of the past season, has !•-
lished what we have, without hesitation, always asserted tin it,
that is the only fertiliser reliable under all circumstances ot
soil, mode of cultivation, and of weather.
The undersigned is also prepared to supttly any description ot

the latest improved patterns adapted to Southern cultivation, at
