that my fallow-citiZen* of Norlh-Caroliua, {.'re
ferring, with characteristic good sense, results
to speculations, will be as well satisfied, and as
effectually aided in the intelligent hestowment of
their suffrages, by a brief but explicit avowal of
rny opinions, as they would be by an elaborate
dissertation upon subjects which have been so
thoroughly and diffusively debated.
Although my official acts in relation to the
Protective System, might well be regarded as
rendering the avowal unnecessary, I think it,
nevertheless, proper to say, that I believe the
establishment of commercial regulations, with a
view to the encouragement of domestic pro
ducts, to be within the constitutional power of
Congress. Whilst, however, 1 have entertain
ed this opinion, it has never been mv wish to see
the power in question exercised with an oppres
sive inequality upon any portion of our citizens,
or for the advantage of one section of the Union |
at the expense of another. On the contrary, 1
hare at all times believed it to be the sacred ;
duty of those who are entrusted with the ad- |
ministration of the federal government, to direct ;
its oppositions in the manner best calculated to j
distribute us equally as possible its burthens and
blessings amongst the several States and the
[ CO] !•;. My views upon this subject were sev
ered years ago spread before the people of this
State, and have since been widely diffused, ;
through the mediums of the public press. My |
wbjeel at that time was to invite the attention of j
my immediate constituents to a dispassionate:
consideration of the subject in its various bear- |
mgs ; being well assured, that such an investi- I
gation would bring them to a standard, which, i
from its moderation and justice, would furnish j
tiie best guarantee for the true interests of all. i
If, os has been supposed, those views have eon
tri butt d in any degree to pro luce a state of feel- j
inir so much to be desired, I have reason to be
gratified with the result.
The approaching, and if the policy of the
present Executive is allowed to prevail, the cer- \
tain and speedy extinguishment of the national ;
debt, has presented an opportunity for a more j
equitable adjustment of the tariff, which has !
been already embraced by the adoption of a con
ciliatory measure, the spirit of which will, I
doubt not, continue to be cherished by all who are
not desirous of advancing their private interests
ul the sacrifice of those of the public, and who 1
place a just value upon the peace and harmony
of the Union.
The Protective System and its proper adjust
ment, became a subject of frequent and neces
sary consideration, whilst 1 formed a part of the
cabinet; and the manner in which the President
proposed to carry into effect the policy in rela
tion to imposts, recommended in his previous
messages, has since been avowed with that
frankness which belongs to his character. To
this end, he recommended “ a modification of the
tariff, which shoul 1 produce a reduction of the
revenue to the wants of the government, and an
adjustment of the duty upon imports, with a view
to equal justice in relation to all our national in
teres’s, and to the couuterac iou of foreign poli
cy, so far as it may be injurious to those in
terests.”
In these sentiments I fully concur ; and 1 have
been thus explicit in the statement of them, that
there may he no room for misapprehension as to
mv own views upon the subject. A sincere
and faithful application of these principles to our
legislation, imwarped by private n est or po
litical design ; a restriction of the wants of the
goverum nt to a simple and economical adminis
tration of its .affairs—the only administration
which is consistent with the purity and stability
of the republican sys cm ; —a preference in en
couragement given, to such manufactures us
are e-sen ial to the national defence, and its ex
tension to others in proportion as they are a
dapted to our country, and of which the raw
material is produced by ourselves; with a pro
per respect for the rule which demands that all
taxes should bo imposed in proportion to the a-
Lililv and condition of the contributiors; —would,
I am convinced, give ultimate satisfaction to a
vast majority of the people of the United State s,
and arrest that spirit of discontent which is now
unhappily so prevalent, and which threatens such
extensive injury to the institutions of our country.
Internal improvements are so diversified in
their nature, and the possible agency of the fede
ral government in their construction, so variable
in its character and degree, as to render it not a
little difficult to lay down any precise rule that
will embrace the whole subject. The broadest
and best defined division, is that which disting
uishes between the direct construction of works
ofinterna! improvement by the general govern
ment, and pecuniary assistance given by it to
such as are undertaken by others. In the former,
arc included the right tomakeand establish roads
and canals within the States, and the assumption
of as much jurisdiction over the territory they
may occupy, as is necessary to their preserva
tion and use: the latter is restricted to simple
grants of money, in aid of such works, when
made under State authority.
The federal government does not, in my opin
ion, possess the power first specified ; nor can it
derive it from the assent of the S ate in which
Mich works are to be constructed. The money
power, as it is called, is not so free from difficul
ty. Various rules have from time to time been
suggested bv those who properly appreciate the
importance of precision and certainty in the op
orations of the federal power ; but they have
been so frequently infringed upon by the ap
parently unavoidable action of the government,
that a final and satisfactory settlement of the
question has been prevented. The wide differ
ence between a definition of the power in ques
tion upon paper, and its practical application to
the operations of government, has been sensibly
felt by all who have been entrusted with the
management of public affairs.— ihe whole sub
ject was reviewed in the President’s Maysville
message. Sincerely believing that the best in
ton s s of the whole country, the quiet, not to
suv the stability, of the Union, and the preserva
don of that moral force which perhaps as much
as any other holds it together, imperiously re
,juired that the destructive course of legislation
upon that subject, then prevalent, should, in some
proper and constitutional way, be arrested, I
throughout gave to the measure of which that!
document was an exposition, mx ac-ixe, zealous t
and anxious support.
The opinions declared by tuc President in tuc
Maysville, and his succeeding annual message,
as I understand them, are as lollowo : Ist. lhat;
congress does not possess the power to make &
establish a road or canal within a State, with a
right of jurisdiction to the extent I liave s.atei ,
and that if it is the wish of the people that U\o
construction of such works should be undertaken
by the federal government, a previous amend
ment of the constitution, conferring that power,
and defining and restricting its exercise, with ic
ffrence to the sovereignty ot the States, is in
dispensable. 2d. An intimation of his belief that
the right to make appropriations in aid ol such
internal improvements as are of a national char
acter, has been so generally acted upon, and so
long apquicsced in by the federal and State ( »o
vsrnmeDts, and the constituents of each, as to
justify its exercise ; but, lhat it is nevertheless
highly expedient that even such appropriations
should, with the exception of such as relate to
light-houses, beacons, buoys, public piers and
other improvements; in the harbors and navig.
ble rivers of the U nited States, for the security
and facility of our foreign commerce, be deferr
al least until the national debt is paid. 3d. That
it it is the wish of the people that the agency of
the federal government should be restricted to
the appropriation of money, and extended in that
form, in aid ofsuch undertakings, when carried
on by State authority, then the occasion, the
manner and the extent of the appropriation,
( should be made the subject of constitutional re
gulation.
In these views I concurred ; and I likewise
participated in the difficulties which were en
countered, and expressed by the President, in
adopting the principle which c ucodea to the
federal government the right to make appropria
j tions in aid of works which might be regarded
ns of a national character—difficulties which
; arose as well from the dansrer of considering
mere usage the foundation of the right, as from
the extreme uncertainty and consequent insecuri
ty of the best rule that had ever been adopted,
or that could, in the absence of a positive con
stilutioual provision, be established. The rea- |
sons on which these objections were founded
I arc so fully stated in the document refered to,
j and have been so extensively promulgated, that
: it is unnecessary lor me to repeat them here.
! Subsequent reflection and experience have con
firmed my apprehensions of the injurious conse
quences which would probably flow from the
usurpation of appropriations for internal improve
ment, with no better rule for the government of
! congress than that of which I have spoken ; and
1 do not hesitate to express it as my opinion,
that the gene. aI and true interests of the country
would be best consulted by withholding them,
with the exceptions which I have already refer
’ red to, until some constitutional regulation upon
the subject has been made.
In this avowal, I am certainly not influenced
1 by feelings of indifference, much less of hostili
ty, to internal improvements. As such, they
can have no enemies. I have never omitted to
give them all the proper aid in my power ; for
which, by the way, 1 claim no particular merit,
; as 1 do not believe there is an honest and sane
man in the country who does not wish to see
them prosper : But their construction, and the
manner in which and the means by which they
are to be effected, arc quite different questions.
Rather than again expose our legislation to
all the corrupting influences of those scrambles
and combinations in congress, which have
been heretofore witnessed, and the other af
fairs of the country, to the injurious effects
unavoidably resulting from them, it would, in
my opinion, be infinitely preferable to leave
works of the character spoken of, and not em
braced in the exception which has been pointed
out, for the present, to the supports upon which
they have reposed with so much success for the
last two years, viz : state efforts and private en
terprise. If the great body of the people be
conic convinced thatthe progress of these works
should be accelerated by the federal arm, they
will not refuse to come to some proper constitu
tional arrangement upon the subject. The sup
position lhat an equitable rule, which pays a
prosper respect to the interests and condition of
the different States, could fail to receive, ulti
mately the constitutional sanction, would be clo
ing injustice to the intelligence of the country.
By such a settlement of the question, our politi
cal system, m addition to the other advantages
derived from it, would, in relation to this sub
ject ut least, be relieved from those dangerous
shocks which spring from diversities of opinion
upon constitutional points of deep interest ; and,
in the mean time, the resources of the country
would be best husbanded by being left in the
hands of those by whose labor they are produ
ced.
I am unreservedly opposed to a renewal of
the charter of the United States’ Bank, and ap
prove of the refusal of the President to sign the
bill, passed for that purpose, at the last session
of Congress, as well on account of the unconsti
tutionality, as the impolicy of its provisons.
I am equally opposed to the principle of Nul
lification, as it is called. With whatever sin
cerity that doctrine may be entertained by
others, I believe that it is entirely destitute of
constitutional authority, and that it could not be
adopted, without drawing after it the ultimate
but certain destruction of the confederacy.
That these vivws will be universally accepta
nce to those who have called them forth, 1 do
not allow myself to expect. He who thinks in
a country, the interests of which are so diversifi
ed as ours, and in respect to the constitution of
which, construction is made to perform so great
a part, that the purest intentions, or the most
profound reflections, can enable him so to shape
his political tenets as to meet the approbation of
all ; or who is so unreasonable as to require that
those of the public servants should, in all re
spects, correspond wi.h his own. must expect to
make up his account with disappointment or de
ception, For myself, I cherish no such hope. —
All I ask, is a fair confidence in the sincerity of
the princples I have avowed, and in the fidelity
with which they will be maintained. It is not
possible that any nomination could have been
more entirely unsolicited, by word or deed, than
that which lias been bestowed upon me. Had it
not been for an event to which, as I have be
fore said, I feel myself principally indebted for it,
I should not have hesitated to decline, however
highly distinguished the honor intended for me is
felt to be. And I beg my fellow-citizens of
North Carolina to believe, that, notwithstanding
the deep sense which, in common with the people
of the Union, I entertain of their unwavering
though unpretending patriotism and unspotted
political faith, and the high gratification I should
derived from being thought worthy of their con
fidence, I shall feel it a duty to be content with
whatever disposition of the question they, in the
honest exercise of their opinions, shall see fit to
make.
With sentiments of high consideration, I am,
frentlcmen, vour obedient servant,

CHARLESTON, October 23.
| COTTON. —The late advices from Liverpool seem
: to have had some effect on this market and holders in
general expect about $ of a cent advance on our last
quotations on ail descriptions. The sales during the
past week have been fair embracing in all about 1,441
bales, of which 113 hales were of the old crop at 9$ to
the balance (1328 bales) were of the new crop &.
brought the following prices, viz ; 45 bales 10 cents; 102
st 101; 109 at 10i ; 106 at 10 13-16 ; 119 at 10* ; 537
' at 11 ; 78 at Hr; a lot of 100 bales at prices not made
public and several superior parcels, in ail about 110 bales
brought Hi cents, which is now the pne* asked for
> choice Cotton. The new crop begins to arrive freely,
; and although the quality is thought not to be quite as
( pood, generally, as it was last season, it meets with rea
dy sale at from 10J to 11 cents. Our business season
' may now be said to be fairly opened. Stock now on
hand 1223 bales; stock on hand same period last year
5178 bales. In long Cottons, wc have no sales to re
port. We have not heard of any of the new crop be
ing received. Oar of old is very light, less by
, 260 hales thin at the same period last vear. Holders
are firm at quotations an;! do not shew any disposition
to recede. An offer of 20 cen f s we understand was
made and refused for a lot of Mains. Stock now on

bales.
MOBILE, Oct, 10, 1832.
The Colton Crops. —From a great variety of letters,
written at different periods of the summer and autumn, —
and we may add, from a great variety of opinion on the
subject, w e feel ourselves justified in adopting the con
elusion that the crop of this year, in South Alabama, will
exceed that of the one just c losed, by at least 8 or 10 thou,
sand bates. The quantity of land subjected to the growth
of cott n this year, exceeds that of the last, by about ten
per cent, and although! some of the plantations on the
Alabama, and in some of the inland counties, may have
suffered by the rains and wet weather, our letters assure
us, that in some other portions of the State, the yield per
acre will be materially encrcased upon that of last year.
Should the season prove as favorable, as usual, to the
collection of the crop, we mav calculate on at least 135,.
000 bales, —and should the cold weather keep off as it did
in the autumn of It 30, 11090 hales would not probably be
j an over estimate of the crop ofSouih Alabama.
NEW- YORK, October 17, 1832.
Cotton. —Our stock is so reduced, that there is no
room for lareer transactions to which our merchants would
otherwise seem well inclined. Since Saturday, the sales
reach 1,000 bales, viz ; 650 N. Orleans at 10} a 13 cts.,
and 150 Uplands at 11 a 1 Iff cts. The advices from Eu
rope continue favorable ; we refer to those just received
from Liverpool per the Ncw-York.
From the Correspondent of the NcW-York Courier and
Enquirer.
LIVERPOOL, September 15.
You will see by the annexed Circular, that a very ex.
tensive business has been done in Cotton since the Bth
inst. 34600 hales have been sold with an advance in
price of f to h on American, and on almost every other
description of Cotton. Speculators have purchased to the
extent of 12,Cf )0 bales in American ; 2000 bales in Egyp
tian and a lew hundred bales of Brazil cotton. The
rest, about 20,000 bales, has been taken by consumers.
Our imports during the 8 days have not reached 10,000
bales ; our stock is now therefore reduced from 270 a
230.000 bales, against one of 330,000 bales at the same
period last year.
The increase of demand and consequent advance of
prices, is the natural effect of the well founded opinion
which prevails in Liverpool and Manchester, as to the
probable extent of the supply of Cotton on the one hand
and the demand for it on the other, during the last lour
months of IFe do not believe that it is attributa.
ble to any other circumstance, nor that any decided
opinion respecting Cotton (favorable or otherwise) ex
tends much beyond the end ul the present year.
On the one hand it is believed (correctly as we think)
that the manufacturers were but scantily supplied with
cotton on (he Ist September ; and we know that in many
articles of manufacture and particularly in certain num
bers of Cotton twist, there has lately been considera
ble renewal of demand and some rise of prices. From
these two circumstances added to the alledged factofa
generally increased consumption in Great Britain, it is
fair to infer that the regular demand from manufacturers
during the four last months of 1832, will carry off a quan
tity o: Cotton, at least equal to the largest consumption so
the same four months in former years. Last year this
quantity was 263,000 hales, and on an average of six
years, from 1626 to 1631, it has been 230,000. It is be
lieved that this year it w ill not fall much short of 300,000
bales.
Now to meet the demand of this assumed quantity of
280 a 300,000 hales, wc had, on the Ist Sept, a stock of
only 200,000 bales. \Ve cannot receive from the U. S.
more than 50,000 bales of the old crop—from Egypt we
expect nothing—from Brazil little or nothing, and the
new crop of the U. States (even should it prove to be an
early one) cannot be received here in large quantities till
the end of December, or beginning of January.
There is only one fact assumed in this reasoning,
which we think must not be implicitly relied on, &, that
is, that the consumption of Cotton for the last 4 mouths
of 1832 will exceed those of former years. For it must
not be forgotten that our present high prices will infalli
bly deter other manufacturers from t-x.ending their pur
chases, beyond what may be require ! tor tln-ir immedi
ate consumption, particularly when they know that there
is a prospect of a largo crop in the U. States.
The stock of American Cotton at Marseilles on the Ist
Sept, did not exceed 5000 bales, and the total stock of
12.000 bales. The prices of Mobile and Upland were
linn at 80 a 95.
[From another Correspondent.]
LIVERPOOL, Sept. 14.— Cotton —The sales in the
early part of the week were unusually extensive, both to
consumers and speculators, but since Wednesday the
enquiries have been confined principally to the trade, &
the sales have only a little exceeded the usual daily
quantity. The advance obtained has been at least }d pr.
lb. on common American, and id per lb. on the better de
scriptions; in other kinds, with the exception of IVrnam,
it is id per lit. 12,000 American, 2000 Egyptian, and
500 Bahia have been taken on speculation. The sales
of tiie week amount to 34,570 bales.
