Mnss Meeting as Aucusta. Georgia.

AUGUSTA, Nov. 10.-A large meeting
Of citizens was heldin the Council Cham
Der this afternoon, Mayor Blodgett pre-
siding.
The Mayor stated that he had re-
ceived information that two of our citi-
zens had been notified to leave by un-
authorized persons. The meeting was
called to consider whether we should
protect ourselves by upholding the laws
and the preservation of order, or allow
an unauthorized body Of men to take the
law into their own hands.
Mr.. John NJ jackson moved that a
committee of twenty one be appointed
to prepare business. The Chairman Sc
lected highly respectable and infen-
tial committee, who reported the follow
ing:
Resogeed, That we live under Gov
ernment of law and order, and it is the
bounden duty of every good clt!zen to
see that all rights are respected, and
wrong speedily redressed in the forms
provided by law.
Resozred, That the genius Of our in
stitutions forbids the punishment of a
citizen without fair trial by jury.
Resozced, That the assumption by in
dividuals, however respectable, of any
of the powers of Government, is subver-
sive of all civil liberty, and its tenden-
cles fatal to the vital interests Of the
| community.
/ Rcsotyed, That if the existing laws are
insufficient for the protection of the
rights of citizens, the proper course is
to apply to the Legislature to amend
and modify them as the interests of
society require.
Unusual excitement sometimes pre-.
vailed during the meeting Addresses
were made by Colonels Wright, Cum
mings, Kane, Sneed, Montgomery
Dorotie, Ford and others Ths conser
vative sentiment prevailed, and the reso
| lutions were adopted.

No Fears of Secession at Washington.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.--No appre-
hension exists in official quarters that
any efforts will be made to seize the
forts of public property in the South, as
no such movements would be tolerated
by the authorities of the States in which
they are located.
The questions which now distract the
people of that section are of great deli
cacy, and nothing will be done by Ex-
ecutiye authority which would tend to
e1asperate the public mind against the
General Government at this juncture,
while, however, tbs President will per-
form his duty in fully enforcing the law.
The resignation of the Federal officers
at Charleston being contingent on their
acceptance by the President, time will
be given them TO reconsider their action.
An erroneous report has prevailed that
the President intends issuing a procla-
nation, but it will be recollected that
General Jackson did not pursue such a
course until South Carolina had passed
the nullifying ordinance.
The Cabinet to-day held their first
meeting since the Presidential election,
but no question in connection with
Southern events required formal action,

That an exposition Of the will of the
people may be obtained on a question
involving such momentous consequences,
[ would earnestly recommend that IN
the event Of AJroham Lincozn's election
to the Presidency, q Congention of the peo-
pie of this State be immediately called to
consider and determine for themselves the
mode and measure of redress My own
opinions of what the Convention should
do are of little moment; but believing
that the time has arrived when every
one, however humble he may be, should
express his opinions in unmistakea bic
language, I am constrained to say that
the only alternative left, in my Judgment,
Is the secession of South Carolina from
the Federal Uaiom The State has, with
great unanimity, declared that she has
the right, peaceably, to secede, and no
power on earth can rightfully prevent it,
If in the exercise of arbitrary power,
and forgetful of the lessons Of history,
the Government of the United States
should attempt coercion, 1t aoiW become
orr solemn duty to meet force By force; and
whatever may be the decision Of the Con-
vention, representing the sovereignty of
the State, and amenable to no earthly
tribunal, it shall, during the remainder
Of my Administration, be carried out to
the letter, regardless of any hazards that
may surround its execution. I would
also recommend thorough reorganiza-
ton Of the MALTA, so as to place the
whole military force of the State in po-
sition to be used at the shortest notice
and with the greatest efficiency. Every
man in the State, between the ages of
eighteen and forty five, should be we'll
armed with the most efficient weapons of
modern warfare, and all the available
means of the State used for that purpose.
In addition to the general preparation,
| would also recommend that the service
of ten thousand volunteers be immediately
accepted that they be organized and
drilled by officers chosen by themselves,
and hold themselves in readiness to be
called on uponthe shortest notice. With
this preparation for defense, and with
all the hallowed memories of past
achievements, with our love of liberty
and hatred of tyranny, and with the
knowledge that we are contending for
the safety of our homes and fresides, we
can confidently appeal to the Disposer
of all human events, and safely trust our
cause in his keeping. VIM. II. GIsT.

DOUGLAS INSUJTED AT MONTGOMERY,
ALABAMA. .I ~. -

The Atlanta (Ga.) Southern Confederacy
of last Saturday learns from a highly respecta,
BILE gentleman, who arrived there that evening
direct from Montgomery, that Hon. STEPHEN
A. DOUGLAS, on his arrival in Montgomery,
met with a shower of rotten eggs. The Con
feaeracy, says:
"Think of it, patriots. of the South !! A
distinguished American citizen. a law-abiding
man, a patriot, a statesman, holding high po-
sition in the councils of the nation, and one
who is the candidate of a great party for the
highest office in the gift of a free people, to be
offered the greatest conceivable indignity-
And in what place was it that Mr.. Douglas
received such treatment ? At Montgomery,
the home of William l.. Yancey, the gentleman
who has been mainly instrumental in bringing
this Government to the very verge of destrue-
ton.
And because the patriot and slandered
Douglas chooses to meet the ummons of his
fellow citizens in Montgomery, he is greeted
on his. reception in that city by rotten eggs,
and the yells and Kisses of demons and fanat-
les.
Mr.. Yaneey has recently canvassed the
Middle, Northern and Northwestern States, in
the dissemination of his ~factious and disorgan-
izing dogmas, but in every instance he has
been met and treated like a gentleman. But
when a distinguished opponent, a friend of the
Constitution and the Union, visits the home of
Mr.. Yancey, he is met with rotten eggs and
other indignities.
The Ashland union. [volume] (Ashland, Ashland County, Ohio) 1854-1868, 1860-11-21
POLITICALLY Dead.

The Republicans tell us that Mr.. Douglas,
by this election, is politically dead. They
forget that he las four years to serve In the
Senate of the United States. and that in that
capacity he will stay there until Lincoln leaves
the Presidency. In the Senate of the United
States for the coming Administration Mr.. ID.
will be a master spirit-the live man OF Con
gress. If Mr.. Lincoln does not pursue a cor
rect policy, Mr.. Douglas is in a position to
%criticise it, and hold up his errors to the
couatry-a duty which he will fearlessly and
nobly discharge. 1t would be much more cor
rect to say that there is no future for Lincoln
than to apply the remark 10 Mr.. Douglas
| Lincoln's administration will make a finish of
him-mark that! He will probably leave the
Presidency hated and despised by most of
those who voted for him, Mr.. Douglas, if he
lives, has thirty years of political eminenoe
before him. 1t is absurd TO talk of a single
reverse killing such a man as Stephen A.
Douglas.
The Republicans should remember that
Lincoln himself was defeated by Douglas for
the Senate in Illinois, in 1858, and that if he
can stand one. beating, Mr.. Douglas, with his
superior talents and energy, can stand a dozen
Mr.. Douglas, although! running against the
prejudices and passions of both extremes oil
the Union, who had been mutually inhamed
with hostility to each other by the acts Of
demagogues and k%naves. has received a greater
number of votes than any other man who wa:
ever beaten for Office. The Republicans foul
years ago were proud of the race which Ere
mont made, who got 100000 votes. Mr.
Douglas has beat that, receiving one million
and a half. His vote is more than double
that of Breckenridge OF Bell. 1t is within
fifteen per cent. of that'of Lincoln. 1t has
this glorious popularity, too. that tits distrir
buted in every State in the Union. Breckin.
ridges votes are about all in the South; Lin
coins are about all in the North, but Mr.
Douglas has thousands and. tens of thousand.
of votes in both Northern and Southern States
He alone got a national vote His opponents
received the votes of sections, 1t is, all things
considered, a proud triumph for Mr. Douglas
to have received one million and half of votes
against two candidates, one of whom had thu
assistance of the Federal Administration :
Events will prove that Mr.. Douglas is just
about as near being killed politically as wa
Gen. Jackson when the poll ticians defeated
him in 1924 for President.

Nero Riddles while Rome is Burning
The Wide Awake Demonstration.

While Cleveland j~ubilates and illuminatse
with torches and transparencies, rejoicing over
the success of a sectional candidate, the fires
of disunion are being lighted on the bill tops
of the South, aud State after State is prepar-
ing to secede from this once glorious conted-
eracy. While Wide Awakes of the North are
marching and countermarching in MIMIC imi-
itation of a triumphant army, the "Mlnute
Men" Of the South are marshaling their
forces and parading their banners in solemn
defiance of their Northern ~victors. These de-
monstrations of the Sectionalists, these songs
of triumph and shouts CT derision CRATE
harshly upon the ears Of a patriotic, and
Union loving people.
We submit it to all candid and conservative
minds if this rasping and exasperating bust
ness by the Black Republicans has not been
carried far enough. Is it not better now to
turn their attention to some wise expedient to
keep the Union together, rather than making
the breach broader and deeper. Thousands of
dollars are nightly spent in these demonstra-
tiens which had much better be given to the
poor.
1t is criminal folly to treat lightly the signs
in the South. They are portentous OF disrup-
ton. They are forerunners of a storm which
may be already beyond human control. We
seek not to create unnecessary alarm. 1t Is
after the election now, and we shall not be
charged, as we were before the election, with
designing to frighten people out of voting for
Lincoln. Lincoln's elected, but we say that
if his party press shall continue to employ the
same aggressive tone towards the South which
it has employed of late, he will not be inau-
gurated President of thirty-three States -
Nothing is more certain than that. 1t does
not matter that the South has not just cause
for revolution. We agree that she has not,
But she will not wait for that if she shall see
that the same spirit which has nullifed the
fugitive slave law, commended the Helper
Book and applauc ed John Brown is the spirit
of the administrator party.-Plain Dealer.
