<h3>THE GEORGIA COLONEL'S COSTUME.</h3>
<p>"On account of this sectional warfare," Senator Mason, of Virginia,
announced his resolve to wear homespun, and dispense with Yankee
manufactures altogether. That made Lincoln laugh, and say: "To carry
out his idea, he ought to go barefoot. If that's the plan, they should
begin at the foundation, and adopt the well-known Georgian colonel's
uniform--a shirt-collar and a pair of spurs!"--(In, speech, New England
tour, 1860.)
