nia will not act as South Carolina, I have no longer a home, and I am a banished man. [Applause.] I hope, gentlemen, that my friends will excuse me from talking any longer. But, I will say, there is not one of you, young and ardent as most of you are, that has his cause more at heart than I have, or would make greater sacrifices to secure its success. [Loud and long continued applause] The Columbia South Carolinian, speaking of the military preparations in that State, says: At Walhalla, a military company is organizing. At Pendleton, a company has been formed, styled "the Fort Hill Guards," eighty-seven strong, and Col. Walter Gwyan elected Captain. He leaves town this morning, with arms, accoutrements and uniforms for his company.

There was another great demonstration tonight. The stand near the pole was beautifully illuminated.
