Uprising Of the Sonlh.

Hon. r. N. T. Hunter, while in At
lanta. Ga, on his way to Montgomery,
complied with the desire Of a large crowd
Of citizens, an made 4 speech. Il After
some preliminary remarks he said. Il
But this is no time for talk. The en-
envy approaches us. They have gather
ed a large force along our border, and
threaten TO invade our soil for the purpose
Eof sublugating us. But We are ready
and able 70 receive them. We wage 10
aggressive war upon any one. We stand
on our~own soil. and, By the help of God,
we will defend i: TO The last against The
invading hordes of/abolitionists, which
now threaten us with destruction. When
1 left Virginia, i wasfinformed Of their
gathering on our borders. Our own
brave sons were up in arms going forth
to meet them. AS, came along met
the South CarOlina Regiment goings(erth
lto1shed their blood. if need be. in our de.
Tense. j also saw the gallant Georgia
solders which have rallied 70 the defense
of Portsmouth, and Norfolk. As / passed
through Lynchbufg. Isaw two splendid
Regiments Of Alabama soldiers ON their
way 70 the point Of our country s danger;
and still. as came on, l met the sol
diers Of Mississippi coming 10 our rescue.
I also noticed that most cordial greeting
and welcome was every where extended
TO all those soldiers who have SO patriot
ieally, and with such alacrity, stepped
forth 10 defend our country in this heI
hour. Of danger The men met them
| with shouts and cheers. The women
land cntIdreny fAeEn the windows, waved
tftherr handkerchiefs and threw their boz
|auets. w ~
But. as I said before. this is no. time
for speaking. Events areTapidIy hasten.
| ing upon each other and upon US. Now
Is the time for action. The South is pre-.
pared and ready for II. When we have
fought through this war this unatlraI
war, which he fendishness Of Abolition
bigotry and fsnatieism is waging on US
when we have achieved glorious victo-
| ry, and triumphed over all our foes
when our liberties have been secured,
Fanf peace shall spread her gentle wings
and return to us from her banishment. to
take up her abode with us, around our
kaltars and our hearth stonesA-then we
can speak to the whole world, and tell Of
our goodfy heritage, our superior Gov.
eminent, the liberties of our people, and
