For tho Lancaster Ledger. * A New Volunteer Compauy in Lancas ter. Mr. Kditok :?To secure the liberty and protect institutions of the South, should be the object and aim of every prtriot in oui midst. W liilst there are stern duties in out Stair legislatures calling hi imperious tone" for the btM efforts of our truest, firmest and most practical Legislators, and whilst there is neud in the hall's of Congress for tho otatetnanship and iiigli legal attainments of our boldest, most scientific and wisest men, there are also at home duties and labors of no le ss ohH.mtinn m.t Iinnor. tiinow for the performance of the citi?.eniotdicry of the couiitiy. UrpieKetitnlives in the legislative branched of Oovernmonts mny, undisturbed bv fanaticism and insurrection, timet wise and useful laws, but tlie t^r<iliug eloquence nnd practical good sense iff even a Kutiedge. will fall inetlective and powerless amid the rage of passion and tumult i f fanaticism. Statesmen, when tlio clangor of arms and thunders of war are heard, and the desolations of anarchy and misrule seen and felt, may expostulate to the usurper, nnd sway listening senates and grave cabinet* to certain lines of policy ; but the far seeing sagacity and irre-u&tub'e l.'gi.o of even a Calhoun, can never dtive back the tnvndei and quell the storm The inarch of usurpation, the noise of war, and the dread consequences of insubordination arid insurrection against the settled forms of Governments, can only be arrested bv the strong arms and stout hearts of the honest yeomanry of the country. 'I lie people, the centre and source ol" all power, after argument ami statesmanship have been exhausted in vain in expostulations against impending danger, must, at last, by their own inhered' power resort to arms, sup press the tumults of fanatu i-ni, drive out the enemy, restore pence and quiet to the couriirv, ami give safety and protection to their rights and liberties. Then in view of these dalle.; n.-.d responsibilities resting upon the citizen soldiery, it is the pait of wisdom and valor to pro pare in some orgnnixed foim for any emergency that may arise. It has been truly said, that "eternal viiriljiio-a i? tin. ori..? /.? e ~ ,u *"* I ' v " liberty and "in lime of pence is the lime lo prepare f>r war." Tin* humble individual whose name appears at the bottom of this article, would therefore respectfully suggest the propriety of forming n new volunteer company at Lancaster Court House and would also through this medium ca'l upon the young men of Lancaster Dislric* to rally together and form a company A paper for the enrollment of names will In offered at Hasseltinu & Cureton's store It may be said by some that there is n< necessity for all this?that there is no dan per of a disturbance from any source.? There is no immediate danger, wo grant but front the signs of the times there i> danger in the distance. Already litis the soil of the old IhiUiiniot; been made red by the precious blood of Iter own citizens. The attack of the infamous Brown :.nd his comrades at Harpers Ferry, and the encoHrageinenl'hnd sympathy which they received at the hands of a large body of the people at the North, most clearly demonstrates the intense feeling and settled policy of the North toward the institutions of the South. The Black Hcpublipap party, under the lead of the astute Seward,'is fully determined to exterminate, il possible, the institution of slavery from these United States. The danger is now heard away from our midst?front the hill tops of Vir tv.. -i... : * - J: - 1 tsu?

C., Dec. 12, 1859. Lditot. of thf. Ledger :?Permit niu through the columns of tour paper to address a lew words in lhe.su Startling times' to the people of Lancaster District, as I re. gard nr.,f know tunny of them to be my warm nnd devoted friends. The time bus now arrived, which shows conclusively and in a ciunr light, our pecu. liar position with the Northern States. The time has now arrived f>r action l.y our peo pie. I nm no alarmist. The recent outbreak at Harpers Ferry, is but n prelude to the wild reckless, daring fanaticism, tlmt exists. It is madness suicidal to longer cry "our glorious Union!" .Our righta nre triii p cd under toot, our laws not respected, even where murder and treason has been the crime. Had not Ijie insurrectionary movi;nen'P been checked in lime, a warfare more Savage than that of the Indian would have been the result. There is n work written and published J?y one Helper of North Carolina, and one hundred thousand copies printed and distributed, which is endorsed by present members i/f Congress, Judges, Ministers of the Gospel, .Merchants, Manufacturers, and men of influence at the North, which is calculated to destroy the South in her institution of slavery, and looks forward to astitiggle between master and slave and lion-siaveholdcis of the South, aided l>y those of the North. With nil this staring us in t',|e face, is it not madness to fold our arms in quiet and not notice the dark cloud coming over ua. We must take measure* for self de? ienca, prepare lor n struggle tor it ia inevitable. We ahoirld withdraw at once from auch a family. "You may cry pence, pence, when there in no pence;*' A struggle will be forced upon ua. If we are not'prompt in our action to reaist the aggreatjetna that are iu preparation nt the North, we may look for frequent robbing* *nd midnight fire*, end aasaadnnliona. Let u* withdraw trohi audi a Union, either peuceaoly or forcibly. We hare much to gain and nothing j to lose. The first gun that is fired, at eith. er one of the Southern States, the rest will "wheel into line," and establish a Southern I Confederacy. And ono of its first nets ; ! should be to conclude a treaty with Kng , land, stipulate for the admission into our ' ports of Hrittisli shipping and manufactures I i j free of duty, and impose high duty on I 1 Northern shipping and manufactures, lmg- j j land has been searching the world in \ain ! ; for a supply of cotton independent of the I United States, and would gladly accept a i j treaty with us. And we then would show l our Yankee brethren their folly. They , wotjiu ue leil to eat their own wooden j I laws and Nutmegs, and would have to ne. knowledge that they had bit a file. Let South Carolina make the start, and if we have to fight let us man our Hong torn*" cheerily, with a good will and a fit in and fixed determination, to stand by them i at any and all hazards, defend our rights, I our liberties and firesides. South Carolina I against the whole tribe of fanatics. We can give them a lesson, that tliev will have ! to record in their history with shame and j j dUgrucc?if Yankees ever do blush or tVel j j mean. I am willing and ready to again shoulder i i my musket for this noble and glorious t | cause and fall if necessary in the defence of ! I the land of my birth and our homes and j firesides. Peace is preferable at uli times but without war it can never be maintained. We should show them at any rate, iu ease ' of a dissolution of the Union, that we can | cross bayonets if they desire it and take any I field from them at fair play. A. J. S.
