all over Georgia for the forming Minute Men corps.
meeting is called at Augusta tomorrow night.
1t will be managed by the most talented conserva-
tive citizens; and decided measures looking to the

Highly exciting scenes occurred this afternoon in
this city. A Northern man, named Thayer, no.
meopathic doctor and former resident of this city,
recently returned and was charged with uttering
abolition sentiments. On Thursday night he was
ordered to leave the city and refused. He wait
ed on by a crowd this afternoon The crowd in
creased to several hundred, and was addressed by
several citizens, some urging summary treatment
and others a milder course. While the crowd was
engaged in listening Thayer was conveyed off in
rear of the hotel, and escaped punishment.
The citizens said his safety was secured by the
cntreaties of Thayer's wife and children. Suisse
quently, the feeling gradually deepened and WIDEN
ed into hostility to yankees Of all parties.
A Military Convention of the State will be held
next Tuesday in Milledgeve.
Gov Browns special Message is approved, and
during the reading in the Legislature met with
warm applause.

We would also advise our sister States Of the

act too with prompt decision. We have no fear that
any such action will eventuate in dissolution. Il
South Carolina shall sccede, she will indeed return
we trust, speedily to the Union-not as "spoilt
child" &C., but in consequence of guarantees forced
from her Nothern aggressors, which shall secure her
