Even to the girls!

--We perceive that he military spirit has reached even the girls — A company of them paraded yesterday afternoon, with drum and flags. We presume that, as they grow older, if they give the call ‘"to arms!"’ there is not one gallant young man but who will promptly obey the call — We do not know the name of the company, but suggest that it should be ‘"The Fairy Light Guard."’--Augusta Constitutionalist, 15th.
