Great Enthusiasm in Augusta.

On Monday night wc had the satisfaction Of
witnessing II continuation, enlarged and improved,
Of the demonstrations Of rejoicing by the people
of Augus'n. 1t was scene Of brilliancy and ell
thusiasm long to be remembered. Tho whole Of
Broad and many houses OH other streets were
beautifully illuminated up to the third and fourth
sterics,-lLc bright white lights presenting iia.
mnns, stars, semi-circles, crosses, squarcs &C., in
great variety. The pavemcuts rc-soundcd to the
tramp Of thousands,-men, women, hoys, girl:,
babies, and uegro.s. Indeed these last were the
most Joyous part uf the exhibition, shouting in
stncy at every ascension of rockets, or explosion
of peppers, and especially excrcised with broad
cacchinatiors az some medley rush Of masked
COW below -gians, with horns, tin-panS aud super
animated drums vet sweeping by. Then came
the procession of the Fire Companies intcrspcrscd
with bands of music, the men NIL bearing torch
lights and the engines in blaze of glory, with
varied transparcncics dangling above aud around
them, and mottos in red anu blue cnnspicuously
upheld Every where indeed the names Of Geor.
yiu, South Caroline, Fiorian. -NiHsissip,i and
Afabama met the eye, accompanied with glow
ing words of fraternity and encouragement
But it is useless to attempt the description Of II
scene such US Broad Street presented on this me
morab!o Monday night. 1t WAS glorious en-
ilorsement of the verdict Of Gcorg:a's Convention
by the good old city of Augusta. All honor to
her spirited people! Georgia has gone nobly to
the work of her political discnthralmcnt and her
sons will put their shoulders, unitcdy, to the
wheels Of her progress.
