GEN. H R. JACKSON S TOAST.
A Stirring Scene When theAugusta Ar»c-
nalWas Taken.
Speaking of tlie capture of the
UnitcJ States arsenal in that city
immediately after the secession of
Georgia, the Augusta Chronicle says:
Governor Brown was in Milledge*
villa On the twenty-first day of Jan
uary lie affixed his hand and great
seal to the secession ordiancc. On the
morning of the twenty-second he came
to Augusta.
He had decided that the flag ultl-t
come down.
Few people outside of the official
circle knew exactly what the presence
of Governor Brown meant in this city.
It was given out that there was to a
grand military review of the state
mfitin. In the midst of a driving rain
the different commands were muster
ed in their armories and marched to
the Planters Hotel. The troops were
addressed by Governor Brown in stir
ring terms. On account of the in
clement weather they were dismissed
until next day.
The knowing ones on the inside,
however, knew that Gov. Brown’s
mission meant something more than
a dress parade. In fact, Col. Henry
R. JaeksoD.aidc de camp, of the Gov
ernor, had already been dispatched
to the United States arsenal with a
note to Captain Arnold Elzcv, of the
Second United States artillery,com
mandant. This paper stated that
Gcorgia^had resumed sovereignty over
her soil, and that the Captain would
be required to withdraw his troops
beyond the limits of the State, as their
retention was an act of hostility.
Governor Brown added that while he
desired to “cultivate amicable rela
tions with the United States govern
ment” he proposed to take charge of
the arsenal himself.
Captain Elzey refused peremptorily
to surrender.
Things now looked squally. Orders
were issued lo the local militrry.
Volunteers were ordered out. The
Clinch Rifles responded witli SO men;
Oglethorpe Infantry 90 'men ; The
Irish Volunteers,Montgomery Guaads,
Washington Artillery, Richmond Hus
sars, Minute Men—companies A and
B—showed lip in full fighting feather.
Full detachments of militia, Burke
Sharp Shooters and i’iney Woods
Rangers were here. All told, nearly
1,000luen gathered under arms. Gen.
Robert Y. Harris had general charge
of the troops and the prospect for a
battle was imminent.
All that day Augusta was “in the
saddle.” Couriers dashed about tbc
streets, nud Gov, Brown remained
quietly in his headquarters at the
Planters Hotel.
It was known that Captain F.l/.y
had communicated with the author
ities in Washington. It was midnight
before the answer come. The Secre
tary of War, Mr. Holt, regarded the
Governor’s action as “harsh and
premptory.” lie advised Capt. Elzey
that if obliged to surrender by vio
lence or starvation to stipulate for
honorable terms.
On the morningof the twenty-fourth,
the troops were just about to march
upon the arsenal, when a communica
tion was received from Capt. Elzey.
This officer asked for an interview
with his excellency the Governor.
The commands were carried hack to
the barracks and hehl to await dcvel-
opements. At lb A. M. Governor
Brown, Gen. Harris, Col. Henry R.
Jacksou, Col. W. H. T. Walker, and
other members of the staff rode to
the arsenal. There it was stipulated
that the United States Hag should be
lowered aud saluted; the property was
receipted for, the United States troops
to march out with military honors and
given passage to New York.
Out came the guns from their dead
ly posture l>chiud the barracks.
Thirty-three times ili<T their brazen
throats salute the late Union of thirty-
three States The interval before the
last gun was a little longer than the
others, and in that portentious pause
the stars and stripes dropped like a
riven sail in the face of a gathering
storm. It was a painful lioui. There
were old soldiers who had followed
that tlag through the Mexican war
ami had never seen it lowered.
Springing to the front, Col. Henry It.
Jackson offered a sentiment which
arose in spite of himself: “The Stars
and Stri|>es! may it never he disgraced
while it floats over a true southern
patriot.”
Refreshments were served by Capt.
Elzey, aud in the midst of a pleasant
and gallant exchange of civilities, up
went the jaunty .State flag—a white
field with a single red star—emblem
of the sovereignty of Georgia.
