Let the divorce, then, of Dank and Stale, begin in the States, whore the success and phenomena of the experiment upon the wealth and properly of the country, can be minutely watched. I will not trouble you, sir, with any observations on a proposition to create federal government pa per, us a permanent medium for llio government jor the people. Such a project will baldly gain favor as long as the continental paper is remem bered ; and having been tried by every modern government, in every variety of form, with always the same result of a most mischievous depreeia- I linn, we must I e totally regardless of llio lessons jof exii rience, if we adopt it. There is no excep j lion in the history of a thousand attempts lo make I gov eminent paper a circulating medium, to its I total and ruinous failure. The reason is obvious ; I men will not lake in exchange for their property, j any tiring but property, or what represents it.— Government paper is neither the one irnr the oth er; it represents the will of ilia Legislature, and nothing mure. It has not what is essential to currency—convertibility. Hence ils destiny lias been uniform. II is a characteristic, and to my mind a fearful circumstance attending the new financial meas ure, and the arguments brought to sustain them, that they avowedly sot all experience at defiance. 1 Tlicy scorn induction—reject facts—and, abstract ing us entirely from our concrete existence, pro poso to remodel soei-j'y by the deductions of an abstruse logic, and In subject the real affairs ol life lo tlie doubtful decision of polemical thesis. It is, 1 think, a safer, though a less brilliant course, to adhere to.oxpcrieiice, and to take it for granted in politics, as wo do in nature, I hat what has hap. ! polled always, will happen again, j L gives me pleasure, Sir, lo turn from topics ] on which I apprehend there is a consiiloiahic'dif- I lon-nee of opinion between us, to others, on 1 which, il we do not fully concur, d;eru is at ieasi less discrepancy. You say dial the gentlemen whom you repre ; sent arc opposed lo the establishment ot a Nation ; j id Lank. 1 concur with them, Sir, 1 believe such an institution, under present circumstances, 1 inexpedient and impracticable: nor do 1 believe . its establishment will ever be otherwise, unless i ; tiro destructive principles of the ruling par y cun j tirrue so to hnrrasa the country that il will lie driv • on lo escape from anarchy at the risk of despo .- dam. In 1811,, inexorable necessity forced tire . Government upon the exorcise ol this very doubt- I Ini power—a necessity superinduced by the events L of the war, No such necos-ily can again lie , cicall'd but by the lolly or wickedness oi a blind, infuriated party, which, for tho sins of tiro coun try, at present controls ils policy. There is not , one ol the gentlemen whom you represent, -Sir, who will do or suffer more to arrest this liisas i turns career, and avert the necessity which may , drive the country upon a National Lank, than i. I j a fid I declare, w ith perfect confidence, that if ibo I , Administration will pan.-., in its mad career of , violence and nltiaisin—or if, what is more pro. ; bailie, n be beaten down by the sober intelligence 1 ■ of the country —there will be rto National Lank j established. It, on the c nlrary, they continue 1 lo insist upon their exaggerated theories, and are : not u-buked by the in,-delation and practical good ' sense el the people, a National Lank will he the , inevitable consequence. Towards this institution I | the public mind is obviously impelled, by ihe ef s 1-Us ~f those who would persuade us dial Ihe - | destiny ot this groat people and of their lieu in . sliluiioiis is reduced to the al creative of a Na > | linnal Lank or an exclusive exaction of gold and ■ | silver. Ly lids mode ot staling tho argument, t jad middle ground is excluded.

I bus one party propo-es to Lighten ns 1 into a luiiil money exaction tv the terrors of a Lank, and the other lo , ocice us into a Lank, by I the horrors of a specie exaction.

Imbed, j ibis la-1 measure has received its doom in the most decided way—il was rejected in the Senate by a majority of nine, and in the House by a majority ot fourteen. In Congress, letwecn the extra and regular session, il lost in tiro Senate from a ’ ni j niiy in iulavor to a majority of nine against il; ar.d in tlie House, from a majority of seven in favor of a postponement, to a majority of fourteen for tola! rejection.

Icm. . Whether we consider the course of the specie i exacting clause in Congress, or its reception by l the | copie of tlie United Shales, as fur as they 1 have pu-sed judgment, it is dead. Os the Mouth ■ orn States, Maryland, V irginia, North Carolina, i Mississippi and Louisiana, have hold elections since it was proposed, and at which it was the principal question. They have pronounced • against it. It has destroyed the Administration • in several -Stales, and weakened it in all, except, I fear, in our own. i Hut U * the conviction upon the public mind i that this measure was entire ly out oi the ques tion, the Hanks would not have renewed sj ceie i payments, nor would our country have been bles sed with those omens of reviving prosperity 1 which cheer ns on every side. These are the first fruits of the triumph of the people over the Ad i ministration, ahd although the present arrange ment of the Treasury is not such as any one fully approves, y et, defective as il is, a great majority of I' tlie people of the United Stales prefer at, very properly, to this hard money Sub Treasury.

My cour.-o required no deliberation to determine upon it. I found the General Govern ment administered upon principles from which even Hamilton or Pickering would have revolted, and in possession of a parly audaciously avowing doctrines so anli-Republiean as to procure tor them the designation of ‘'the Royalist parly.” i I found that party avowing and acting upon liie principles of the Proclamation against Mouth Carolina, and of the Force HiII. They had passed the 'Parilf of 18-8, and had opposed tlie Compromise of 1833. They had seized upon the deposiles in the U. Stales Hunk, and held the public money agai.'tst latv. They claimed for the President all executive power, without reference to the Constitution. I They avowed the principles that the spoils of government belonged to the victors in a parly struggle, iiriil boldly used ollico and oliico holders to perpetuate their power. Tb.eir President openly employed ail the povv or of the Government to appoint his successor; and they expunged tho Constitution to perform j an act of sycophancy to him ; tlie most guilty j and ignominious act that has sullied our history. Such were the principles and practices of tho j party in power—not only characterized by every j quality which could define Federalism, hut going beyond all that tlie wildest enthusiast for a con solidated government had ever imagined—and these enormities wore perpetrated in the name of Republicanism and Democracy I —which names they have recently again desecrated in a hollow and hypociitical address to the United Mtates, full of those professions which they have made 1 and violated every year for the lust ten. The old federal parly was honest, though mistaken— ' the now party have acted upon, while they de nounced their principle?, and used them to gratify ’ tlie lust of money and office. I went into Congress in opposition to this parly. I stand in opposition to it yet. I stand in the same tanks—shoulder to shoulder with ' tlie same men now as in 1831—and driving the storm of opposition against the same profligate ’ patty. 1 trust and hope, sir, the Republican Stale Rights party does not dilfor in any wise > | from the Stale Rights Whig parly, in stern, Un ' j compromising hostility to the present adminis i trillion ; and, if so, I for one, pledge myself to he . ; toady for an equal opposition to any set of men ; who come in imitating their practices or sharing : their principles. ■ I In conclusion, sir, I offer you this toast: ■ I Tlie Van Huron Party: Let ns never forget tlie words ot Mr. Tazewell. “ They have de ■ i eoived us once, that was their fault—if they dc ' | ceive us again, it will bo ours.” ‘ | With many thanks, sir, to those whom you ' ; represent, for the honor done me, and with tlie ' highest personal regard to you, 1 am, dear sir, your obedient servant, WM. 0.

In order to become an importing people to any considerable extent in Georgia, it is ol the highest importance that wo should first provide a market for the goods impor t6d, and the means of transporting them lo that market. Until the completion of the Western and Atlantic Rail Road and its junction with the Georgia Rail Road, thereby opening an inlet for the productions of the West to find their way to I our markets it will bo folly to talk about import ; ing to any thing like the extent of the value of j our cotton crop.

Hendeusox, Ky„ Aug. 33, 1833. j Stu—With the view that you may form with j the least possible trouble, a more correct estimate .of the extent of country in the North-west, | which would ho commanded by a continuation of tho Atlantic and Western Rail Road from its j present terminus on the Tennessee river, I lake the liberty of enclosing lo you a small map, on ' | which I have laid down, in blue lines, tho Ohio and Indiana Uanals, and in red lines, the Illinois 1 I and Indiana Rail Roads, together with ours, and , the proposed Charleston and Cincinnati Rail Roads. They arc, of course, not laid down on the map with precise correctness, but they are sufficiently accurate to answer the purpose for which I send tho map. 1 beg leave also, to suggest to you that the dis tance from Evansville lo Louisville, (the nearest terminus of the Charleston and Cincinnati Road) is about 220 miles by water; and to Cincinnati, about 370 miles ; and that the distance lo the mouth of tho Tennessee from Evansville, by water, is about 150 miles. 1 will also state, that between Cincinnati and the mouth of the Ten nessee, the navigation of the Ohio is greatly ob structed by bars; and that between Evansville and Henderson, there is never less than about 8 to 10 feet of water in the Ohio. That the trade of the country in the North, west, whose Kail Loads and Canals terminate at Evansville, will never be commanded to any res portable extent, by either the Tennessee river or Charleston and Cincinnati Rai! Road, iseviJi.nl i lo any n.un uLo has any practical acquaintance witli l!ic laws of Western commerce. That the construction of the road from Henderson hy Nashville, will resto.c to Savannah and Charles, ton the commercial superiority which they pos sessed before the Revolution, there can he no donhl. It is also clear, that fixing the terminus of the Atlantic and Western road at Henderson is the best possible policy fur all the section of country interested in tbe work, because tlie route will be not only more direct, but its terminus on i Ihe .Ohio will ho at the nearest practicable point I lo Evansville, which, a glance at the map, will show to be the .Ohio terminus of u larger amount of improved means of travel or transportation than any other point on the Ohio river. The North-western and Southeastern systems of Internal Improvement are now located, and cam not bo changed without groat loss : each section has a deep interest in opening an easy intercourse with the other. Let them connect by the Hon, derson Rail lb-ad, Evansville afid Rossville, lh e nearest andm-j.it important termini of the two systems. Fortunately, the country between them, is probably the most favorable that could have been selected kr Ibc construction of a road horn the Ohio to the Atlantic. Hy entering immediately and energetically upon the work, and pressing h forwtfrd, it nmy bo cbmple'cd almost as soon as the great South, ern and Western systems, which it will unite am! thereby greatly facilitate the efforts of Sa vannah, Augusta and Charleston, to command tho Western trade or commerce. Tor the com pletion of tho Western improvements, must ( 0 some extent, unsettle the course of out t* m . rnercc, by inducing the formation of now busi. ness connexions; and while we arc in that con* dilion, is the most favorable time for the cituj in the South-east to compete for it. Do you approve the suggestions made in my former letter, of a Convention, to meet at Nash villo, for the purpose of devising and arranging a plan of (uturo operations, in relation to ih e road I—Concert in the efforts of the various soc lions of country, interested in its construction, is indispensable lo success in the undertaking, and I know of no hotter method of producing n than such a convention. You will please accept my thanks for the ver valuablo information which you have donr-o the honor to transmit, find if you desire to ole. lain any further information, in relation to tho Western improvements, I will with plea?tfr» transmit it.
