JUDGE CLAYTON’S LET IT.II.
Athexs, Aoqcst 31, 1832.
To IFm. Camming, J. P: King, and A.
Slaughter, Esqs.
GkNtuimen,—1 have received from
you, as tho organ of a mooting of the citi-
zous of Richmond County, u communica
tion accompanied by their resolutions, in
which a request is made to know my “sen
timents in regard to Nullification." Titil
shall be promptly done. Out 1 owo it lo
a sense of self rospect'a^vell us of can
dour to yoo, to siale, that in the face of
your third resolution, cotMuining a threat
to vote against any cuudid'tto who ndvo-
cutes that doctrine, 1 should certainly
have declined a compliance with the wish
es of your mooting, but for a considera
tion much Itighor than that of appeasing a
political denunciation, or essaying to Con
ciliate n doubtful favor. It carries no ter
rors to mo. But the Crisis has arrived
tvlton every man should speak out boldly,
and whatever may be the consequeucos to
Ititusclf, to meet them like a matt, and on-
denvor to save if possible, tho constitution
of his country. To this und it tins been
nty wish to uddress the people of Georgia,
us well for tho purpose of uroiis : ag them
to u proper sense of their wrongs, as to
disabuse tltuir minds ofu carefully lodged
Drejudice intended to impair that hold on
lltcir afflictions, which I hud fondly hoped
hud been well enrned on toy p#ft. Your
uddress hus furnished (but eppottunity.—
As your meeting, doubtless, in s spirit of
vvhtil it conceived to be its rights, has sub
jected mo to a political catechism, tinder
a menace, will it be offended, if I, in my
turn, without such rigour, sudli.to know
•* what nru their sentiments in regard" to
Mr. Jefferson as a statesman♦ He lias
merited, nnd justly received, the title of
an Aposlle of Freedom. He is the great
oraclo of southern politics. In his opin
ions every statesman is safe who has tlte
true and proper veneration Tor civil liber
ty. Will uny thing he has said be good
authority with youi mooting 1 If so, then
mark Itis own words,uttored in opposition
to the Sedition Law, one, not more un
constitutional than the tariff uci. “When
(said this great man) powers are assumed
winch have not been delegated, a Nuli.i- I
vic.vrioN of tho ACT is tho RIGHT-'
FUL REMEDY: That evruy state
lias a NATURAL RIGHT, in cases not
within the compact, to NULLIFY, of
their OWN AU THORITY, all assump-
lions of power by others, WITHIN
THEIR LIMITS* that without this
right, they would he under the dominion,
ubsoluto und unlimited, of whomsoever
might exercise this right of judgment for
them."
Here, then, you have my opinion in full.
Of Mr. Jefferson’s political creed, I shall
never be afraid or ash anted. Whenever
his doctrines couse to be considered or
thodox by tbe southern people, for they
never were in odour in the tioilli, I feel
entirely confident I ant unfit to be their
representative, uud tho execution of the
threat of yaur meeting cun never come
too soon for my own inclination.
It is true that Mr. Jefferson has not
pointed out the mode and manner of nul
lifying a law; but this must be left to the
wisdom and discretion of thn slate whose
rights tiro invaded by the assumed power,
and must be us various as tho acts are vu-
ried that violute the constitution. Any
plan, I euro not tvhut it is, that rids tho
state of the oppressive monsuro, is n nul
lification of that measure. To nullify is
simply nothing more nor less than to ren
der null and Void. Alt unconstitutional
lad’s are null and void, is this ob
jected to I 1 presumo not. Then your
meeting, in its very first resolution, has
declared thut the turifi act is "unjust and
inconsistent with the spirit of the constitu
tion." Is it-too much to say that an unjust
law, one inconsistent with the spirit of the
constitution, ought to be nth.i, and voipi
As much as this doctrine is now derided,
I affirm, without the fear of contradiction,
that it is the very doctrine upon which
Georgia has acted from the foundation of
her government. And I will prove il. I
Liv down these positions :
1st. That tin unconstitutional law is NO
LA W, and no man or community is bound
to obey it, nay, they are bound to resist it,
for every man is stvoru lo support the con
stitution. .
2d. A law “unjust and inconsistent with
the spirit of the constitution," is a viola
tion of the constitution, because it is a per
version of that instrument, a perversion is
a broach of its intention, and according to
i all rules uf construction, legal or moral.
were to pass such a law, every, body would
see its absurdity, and Georgia would md-i
lily it in an instant; then where is the dif-,
forence between eon state and twenty-
three status I Whore is the diflttrcnco be
tween the northern states doing this thing,
iu their separate state legislatures, or, uu-
der the pretence of constitutional authority,
combining nnd meeting in the hall* of Con
gress for tho same purpose, if both meth
ods be equally out of the pale of the con
stitution I Why should we ttot as readily
rerist an usurped t^t of tho general gov
ernment as that of uny other government!
Tltere is no reason for it, and in four dis
tinct cases lias tho slate of Georgia applied,
as Mr. Jefferson colls it, this tueiiTFut,
REM EH V.
May I again respectfully ask your meet
ing, " whut ure its sentiments in regard"
to Governor Troup’s political principles)
He says, ** whatever a state does in its
sovereign capacity, will be right." Act*
ing upon this principle, in 1823, when tho
general government attempted to aqnuil
the old, by what was called the new treaty,
he solemnly declared it should not be done,
staling boldly that he " would employ all
the limned means in his power to prevent
and ordered the Huucock troop of
horso to hold themselves in readiness.**-
What stronger “ revolutionary tendency"
could any measure exhibit 1 Bui this was
not nil, tho Secretary of War ordered
troops into tho nation to overawo the
ttute, listen, while pet haps the blood will
curdle with indignation, at Gen. Gaine'n
despatch to that officer; "Col. Chambers
{said he) with five companies of the first,
und Major Duuolio, with four companies
of the fourth regiment of infantry, havo
taken the positions assigned them, viz.—
the former at Marshall’s Ferry, Flint Ri
ver, and the latter at Priucelon, Chatta
hoochee, with instructions corresponding
with yours of the 21st of lust month."—
Did this alarm Governor Troup) Let me
bring to yonr recollection that patriot 1 *
reply to Mr. Adams : "Tho legislature of
Georgia, will, at its first meeting, l>e o(L
vised to To resist any effort winch may
be made to wrest from tlte state the tern
tery acquired by that treaty, and no mat-
tor hy whiU authority that effort be made.
If the legislature fail to vindicate that light,
the responsibility w ill be timiri, not mine."
Whut become of tho new treaty) Geor
gia nullified it. She resisted the authority
uf the general government because its act
whs unconstitutional, and being in the right ,
though force was not only threatened, but
arrayed, she triumphed, and ih^old treaty
Was sustained. So, the federal troops
marched to Flint River, and then —
marched back again. This is one act of
nullification. 1 understand that the only
objection to nullification is, U has n ten
dency to revolution mid bloodshed, and to
bring tho federal government into con
tempt. What could so effectually pro
duce all these events us tho caso I havo
just mentioned 1
The second instance was the case of Tas-
sels. A mundato was sent from the Su
premo Court of tho United Stales, to sus
pend his exccuiion until he could be beard
before that Court on a writ of error.—
What snid the legislature )
" Unsolved, That tho Governor and every oth
er officer *f this state disregard any and every
mandate and process that has been or shall be
served upon him or them, proceeding Irom tbs
