On Thursday last, although the day waa very rainy, a number of the citizens of the District aasembled in the Court House, for the parpus* of coufawbng together, as to what course should be pursued in reference to the conscription ordered by the Governor and Council. A majority of tho assemblage appeared i to be chagrined and mortified that notwithstanding, the absence in service of more tliau two-thirds of the arms-hearing male population of Horry, yet in all i probability, the District would be sab- t jeet to a draft. The contradictory, con- o fused and irreconcilable, resolutions of u the Kxccutive Council, with the rxpla- v nations aud orders of the Adjutant (Icn ii eral, had only served to create a chaos, it iu their minds, and no one seemed to p know what course to pursue. There was tl left thcui but one plain alternative, and tc that wns to volunteer singly and individu- di ally, for the war,?yet only eight individ in iials pursued that course.
