and Herewith close this editorial CORES
pcndence.
THE SECESSION MOVEMENT AT
THE SOUTH.

CHARLESTON. Nov. 16.-A conference
of the leading men of Georgia, held at

in favor OF disunion. They sent their
resolution to Gov Brown
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16-Amos Ken
dali publishes another article opposing

the ground that it's editor is secession
ist.
COLUMBIA, S. c. Nov. 17.-There is
more quiet in political circles to-day,
but there is such unanimity of feeling
existing among the people of the State
as to make secession fixed fact.
Messrs. Orrand Perry, and other Union
men, either cooperate in or unop-
pose the movement
Meetings are being held in all the
districts and parishes Of the State, and
all favor secession.
AUGUSTA, GA, Nov. 17.-There is
very little opposition to the secession
movement by the people Of this State,
although the mass of them are unfavor-
able to participating.
Especial Dispatch to the Herald
CHARLESTON, S. c., Nov. 17.-Our
leading importing merchants have
erected mammoth pole near the
Charleston Hotel, and the hoisting of
the State flag on it has been duly cele-
brated The cheering was tremendous.
Rev. Mr.. Gadsden delivered a prayer,
and speeches were made by Messrs,
Barker, Robertson, Cannean, Hammond
and Northrup. The Washington Artil-
lery paraded and fred 100 guns. AS the
flag went up, bells were rung and the
band played the Marsellaise Hymn
This fired up the French element of our
population. After the hymn the band
played the Misere from Trovatore, for
the Union. All the large Hotels flung
out the Palmetto flag. Secession badges
are universal. Not ship in the harbor
hoisted Federal flag. There is an
other demonstration tonight. The
stand near the pole is beautifully illu-
minated. Speeches were made by Capt.
Thomas of the State military Academy,
who assured the audience that the Ca
diets were ready at moments notice
Also by Chancellor, Nicoll, Cooper,
Kirkwood and others. The citizens are
raising a great clamor for the banks to
suspend now. 1t is supposed that it
may be done about the middle of next
week. The notes here, however, are
good as gold. The Convention will
probably sit week, but the first thing
done will be secession. Magrath is
much talked of as the Commissioner to
settle with the Government the terms OF
secession.
