Robert Crump, Esq. 2d Vice President,
The Franklin Volunteers: Bright speci-
I mens of the descendants of ’7O ; their

tle, will long be consecrated in the history
of their country.
Capt. James Morris. The Barbour
Rangers : Their valor on lite 24th March
w ill long be remembered by their brothers
in arms, the Franklin Volunteers—such
men commanded by the brave Col. Well
born, will n ver fail to meet the expecta
tionsol' iheir friends.
I t Lieut. Alexander Ash. The memo

Embalmed in fond affection’s breath,
And barhod iu teats.
A. E. Whitten, Esq. Our Guests from
other Counties: We bail them with pleas
ure, and are grateful that they do us the
honor of assisting in our celebration.
J. Hillyerand 11. Cobb, Esqrs. of Ath
ens, being present, were called upon by the
President to address the Company'.
Air. Hillyer rose, and in bis usual happy
style, addressed the assembly at considera
ble length ; in which he most beautifully
and pathetically dwelt upon the Declaration
of Independence—the cause which brought
forth that declaration—the toils, hardships,
sufferings and blood that it cost our forefa
thers to sustain those vows of Freedom
most nobly depicted the wisdom and virtue
-of the Cons.itu i. n of our country : the
rights, liberties and advantages secured to
us by that instrument, and concluded by
offering the following sentiment :
The Constitution of the United Stages
The sheet anchor of this great republic, the -
hope and pride of the American people,
and the beacon to guide the phiianthropisti
and patriots of every nation to glory, hon
or and liberty.
After the cheering had subsided’ which'.,
followed this sentiment—
Mr. Cobb rose and addressed the audi
ence at some length, in a most eloquent and '
patriotic style. His. principal topic wns
upon the currency of the country, atrd. ,tlje
suspension of specie payments by the banks
—in which he justly ascribed the present
embarrassment to over-banking, trading
and speculation. His views es the subjot
would do honor to an older head. He.
concluded with a very patriotic and feeling
address, in which he paid a handsome trib-1
ute to the bravery, firmness and patriotism,
of the Franklin volunteers; and offered the .
following sentiment:
T/ze Franklin Volunteers —A band of.*
citizen soldiers ; their cool and deliberate,
courage and undaunted firmness daring
late Creek campaign, justly’ entitle them to,
the respect, esteem and admiration of their,
fjllow-citizens.
Albon Chase, Esq. Franklin county:.
It bears the name of one of America’s most',
illustrious philosophers, statesmen and paZ
triots—the noble patriotism of its citizens,
'he deeds of chivalry and unsurpassed pub-’
lie services of its gallant soldiers, furnish
an assurance that its proud, title will be'
transmitted with untarnished lustre to pos
terity. - ,
