In view of the rumors which had reached Us
Of the rapid and continued progress of the ell.
sny, a meeting of the citizens Of our village
and vicinity was held in the Court House on
Friday to consult as 10 what steps. if any,
shoald b. taken undsr the circumstances; and
the result was the adoption Of such measures
q defence as are within our reach, in case the
eneuy should threaten this part of the coun-
try. It is not probable that our place will be
in the line Of the enemy's march, should he
succeed in driving back or passing our armies
below; but it is we'll to be prepared for any
emerg gency. Against superior force, of course
resistance would be worse than useless but
against bands of raiding parties the means Tor
local defence, If properly useu, are adequate
We wsrr our readers against giving -lrsdencs
