THE FAITHLESS REPRESENTATIVES
We ask the particular attention of our readers
to the proceedings of Congress, some lime sines,
published in 10-dsys jwprr, on the subject of A ho
lition. We ask our Georgia Trailers especially,
to scrutinise the votes of their memliers in Con
gress upon the direct question, “ shall thu Aboli
tion petition! bo received.” It will tie seen by
references to the yeas and nays that Messrs. Cle
veland, Grantland, Haynes, and Owens, have all
voted directly to receive those almminablc peti
tions, which are intended to overturn the long
established domestic institutions of the south, roll
ua of our property, endanger the (ware of our fire
sides, Iht lives of our fsmilios, and the permanen
cy of the Union itself. Holsey and Jackson
wort absent, tho Istter sick in Philadelphia, tho
former—we know not where! Glascock and
Dawson like Into representatives of the South and
Southern rights, resisted with firmness this Da
grant invasion of all that is near and dear to us.
They will meet their just reward in tho cheering
approbation of their constituents. But the faith
less /stir, what shall be their reward ! Can
they, ought they to he any longer trusted by a
confiding people to whose interests, rights and
feelings they have proved themselves so treache
rous I We call upon the people, tho reflecting
people whose interests are at stako, and who un
chained hy fetters of parly ran look with sober
ness and judgment upon such conduct, to put
their mark upon the faithless men who have be
trayed them in the day and hour of peril. Do
theao mon truly represent the (ample o( Georgia!
Is it the desire of (hs citizens of this state, that
their representatives should extend any counte
nance to tho abolitionists hy voting in Congress
to receive and entertain their petitions'! We
think not. But it is for the people (i answer!
Ws shall not fail to furnish them with every in
formation necessary to cnsMe them to decide cor
rectly. Having done (hat much wc shall have
discharged our duty.
While on this subject, wc call attention to the
following extract front the correspondence of the
New York Courier. It wan written on tho oc
casion of Mr. Adams' presenting a batch of Abo
lition petitions.
Mr. Glascock, of Georgia, objected to ( he
reception of the petition. Mr. Ana.ns rose in
stantly, and advocated the propriety and jus
tice of tho recaption with great energy and
earnestness. He dwelt with a great deal ot
pathos on the personal character of the peli
tinners, and asked tho mem be is how they
would toe),if ajpetitinn signed hy their mothers
and aiders were conlumelmtsly rejected. He
particularly appealed to Mr, Glascock, as a
man and a sun, to withdraw his objections.
Hut that gentleman’s reply to (his pointed ad
dress was most cogent and impressive. He
dwelt with affecting eloquence on the hazards
that would l»e daily encountered hy the moth
ers and daughters ot tho Smith, if tho notions
of the fanatics of the North wore to have ful
swing;—and he asksd if the House was to
have no sympathy for them as well as for
those peraens in the North who were officious,
in invoking the interference of Congress in
matters with which they had no concern. Mr.
Glascock spoke like a statesman on this
deeply momentous subject, and I trust all
parties in the South will sustain his course,
when they see the truly southern spirit which
he has manifested on every occasion when
this eulijcct has been brought up.
Mr. Dawson, of Georgia, the new member
then revived hte question on the reception,
and spoke with great spirit and force in oppo
sition to it. A most irregular discussion (id
lowed, involving numerous points of order,
and mingled with great confusion and uproar.
Mr. Mann, (our Bije)moved the previous ques
tion; it was sustained, and the petition was
received. On motion of Mr. Haynkn, of
Georgia, the petition was laid on the table.
[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.]
WASHINGTON CITY, >
Jan. BUh, 1837. 5
General Santa Anna reached this city on Wed
nesday last, and was presented to the President
on Thursday. A cabinet council was held on
the same evening, at which a proposition offered
by him relative to the recognition of the indepen
dence of Texas, and the restoration of peace and
tranquillity to that country was taken into con.
■idsration. It happened that on the morning of
Thursday, the President transmitted to the Sen
ate, copies of a most interesting correspondence
which had taken place during the past summer,
botween the President of the Mextesn Republic
and himself. The letter of the former, is dated
the 4th of July, and after intimating thaUhis re.
eidonce in Texas had convinced him of the utter
uselessness of prosecuting the war against Texas,
he aska the countenance and support of General
Jackson, to bring about tho recognition of the
independence of Texas, and the restoration of
peace. The date of the President’s reply, is the
4th of September. Me reminds Gen. Santa Anna
that he was yet a prisoner of war; and that the
Mexican authoriliee had declared they would no'
be found by acta of hit; and that while ho was
willing to do ail, which propriety would permit
to attain the cljoct of Gen. Santa Anna’s letter,
he would be prohibited by this consideration, and
by Ifce laws of neutrality, from taking any active
part in the conlroversey. A tier the message and
these documents were read, Mr. Preston rose, and
spoke with great spirit and force of the obligations
of this country to recognize the independence of
Texas at once, and without reference to anything
that had been said or done by Santa Anna;
(hough he thought that as that person was no
longer a captive but at liberty and in this city, the
same objections which the President had to Heat
ing with him at the date of his letter, did not now
hold good. Mr. Walker concurred in the opinion
of Mr. Preston. Mr. Calhoun briefly address,
ej the Senate ou the sulgect, and concluded with
saying that he was prepared to act at once, and
agree to the immediate recognition of tbs inde
pendence of Texui. 'i'lie documents were order
ed to be printed.
The majority in the Senate, the parly who
pretend to l»i the exclusive republicans, and strict
constructionists, have been struggling hard for a
measure which strikingly illustrates their hypo
crisy and inconsistency. Mr. Wright from the
Committee on Finance, introduced a bill to anti
cipate the payment ot the indemnities under the
French and Neapolitan treaties, by paying out of
tbe Public Treasury two and a half mi I lions of
dollar* ! to lha claimants byway of a loan at
four |>er cent. The measure was opposed with
great spirit and force by Messrs. Clay, Calhoun,
and Davis, both on grounds of its unconstitution
ally and its inex|>«dicncy. It was warmly ad
vocated by the friend » of the people and to a
itrict contraction of the constitution 11 Ben
ton, Buchanan, and Wright. No mint can enter
tain a doubt that there ia not a shadow of autho
rity in the constitution for loaning nut public
money to favoured individuals, In the course op
the debate Mr. Wright, in referring to some re
marks of Mr. Calhoun, intimated distinctly, (hat
the latlrr gentleman was, and always hud been in
favour of creating a surplus, Mr. Calhoun in
bis reply, quoted the statement, and asked whe
liter he understood Mr. Wright correctly, Mr
Wright made no reply. Mr. Calhoun then mid
that he had acen the charge in the “ dirty sheet,”
as the (Secretary of Ktalo called the government
official, but that he had never expected to hear lh c
grom and palpable falsehood uttered elsewhere,
Mr. Wright rejoined that he did not mean to hurt
the feelings of any gentleman! that he was nut
in the habit of uttering what he heard, but only
what he lieliovcd. Mr. Calhoun rose again and
said, that he understood Mr. Wright’s allusion to
be ampul at him, and ho Hally pronounced the ns.
sertion to bo utterly unfounded and untrue. Here
thu conversation ended.
The Committee of Public Lands, to whom was
referred the whole subject of the Treasury Circu
lar, have reported a bill designating and limiting
the funds in which tho revenues of the United
Slates shall hereafter be paid. This measure
embodies the resolution of Mr. Rives, with a
slight modification suggested by Air. Ewing of
Ohio; and is a complete abandonment of the
specie policy. Mr. Ewing labored bald to get
this bill taken up yesterday, but it was postponed
for the purpose of pushing through the bill pro
hibiting the sales of the Public Lands except to
actual settlers and in limited quantities. The
graduation clause offered as an ameiulinrnt was
rejected. Mr. Walker therefore moved to ro
, commit the bill. He said he was confident that
. this measuse could not be passed in its present
, shape; and he felt sure that unless some bill was
1 passed which would limit the sales to actual set
t, tiers, the next year would exhibit to tho country
- an immense surplus in the Treasury. In the
i course of the debate, Mr. Sevier of Arkansas,
manifested some sign of treason, which must
have startled the Vice-President and the unscru
pulous slaves of parly. He declared that some
bill to limit the sides in the manner prescribed
must be passed, for if not thorn would certainly
ho an overwhelming surplus, and if there was u
surplus, ho would go for distribution and for
Mr. Calhoun's bill!! He might lie proscribed
fertile declaration, but he wished Senators to un
derstand what they had to expect from him. A
number of amendments were offered afterwards,
and to-day lha consideration of the subject was
continued, and several amendments proposed and
discussed, but no decisive action lias yet been
made upon the measuac. Mr. Ewing of Ohio,
gave notice that he would on Monday bring in a
project, which ho thought would accomplish (ho
object donators had in view more effectually than
the bill «s it stands at present. This bill was
then made the special older for Monday.
In the House, on Thursday, (he bill from the
Senate for tho admission of Michigan was the
engrossing subject of discussion. Mr. Thom
as of Maryland, the Chairman of tho Judiciary
Committee, made a very long and elaborate hur
rangue, but not so much in elucidation of (he pro
visions of the bill, as in indication ol the revolu
tionary doctrines proclaimed by tho Maryland
Destructives, whom lie aspires to lend. Ho was
answered by Mr. Hardin, of Ky., in a veay lucid
and " igorous spcei h, in which the anarchist doc
trines of the Destructives were exposed with re
markable effect. Mr. Vftidcrpoel has the floor
when (his subject comes up again, which will
not lie before Tuesday. Yesterday and to-day
the House was principally occupied with private
bills. Dining tire morning hour, the subject of the
mileage of members, which is brought up every
session, creates a stir and is then laid aside with
out any thing done, was introduced by Mr. Un
derwood, who offered n resolution requiring from
, the Scrgennt-at-arma a statement of the amouni
of mileage claimed, and the sums paid to mem
bers of both Houses therefor, during the past
and the proven) sessions. This proposition crea
ted considerable excitement among the membeis
from the most distant States. Some of them
seemed to regard it as a personal affront to them
t selves. Mr. Claiborne, of Mississippi, who, it is
( said, coolly pockets S3OOO in this way, repelled
I with great warmth, the imputation which the
resolution made upon him and his friends, and
I commented with soveri'y upon tho conduct ot
members who wore accustomed to absent them
|. selves from their duties, for the purpose of
making money in attending the Supreme and
5 other Courts, or of visiting home, or tho neigh
boring cities on private business. He moved an
. amendment for the appointment of a Committee
1 to inquire whether such members had made any
reduction in their per diem compensation when
r absent.
, Mr. Yolt, from Arkansas, spoke in the loudest
1 voice that befit* his name, against tlia resolution,
■ and csncluded by threatening to offer a resolution
f to have the Capital removed across the mountains
i to some spot on the Ohio or Mississippi, if |. e
i should hear any moie about tho subject of mile
age.

ABOLITION PETITIONS.
• The reader will have seen, from our Con
-1 gressionul Abstract, (hat Mr. Adams has u
t gartt introduced these incendiary petitions in
/ the House of Representatives, It was to
I have been hoped that tins subject would have
been allowed to rest, or if brought again into
B the Halls ot Legislation, that Southern mern
- hers, at least, would have voted to give it its
e quietus forever. Rut such a course, (hough
dictated by every consideration of duly to
their constitutcnts and the whole country,
does not appear to have been pursued by all of
* them. The Van Huron party appear deter
{ mined to make a party question. A plain
I statement ot facts will show the course which
s they mean to pursue.
Upon the presentation of the first petition,
Mr. Glascbck, of Georgia, demanded the ques
-1 lion of the reception, but subsequently wilb
-5 drew it; Mr. Parks, a Van Ruren man, having
1 made a motion to lay both the petition and the
I question on the table. On this motion of
Mr. Parks, which acknowledged, by implica
tion, the right of Congress to entertain Ihe a
* bolilion petitions, the vote stood us follows,
B (the names of the Van Ruren men arc iu ital
s tes,)
)llere follows the Yeas & Nays, Messrs.
t Grantland, Cleveland, Haynes and Owens in
the Affirmative—Messrs. Glascock and Daw
lt son arc in the negative.)
8 This was the first vote, and the reader will
t- remark that some two or throe of the State
y rights members voted among the ayes, believ
( ing that it might operate as u riddance of all
file petitions—but the far larger portion of the
'• party voted in the negative—believing, and
t correctly believing, that the Van Ruren men
- wanted to skulk from the true question—l he
B question of reception. It will be seen that
I nearly all the southern Van Ruren (men voted
in the affirmative no doubt, tor the purpose of
I’ avoiding a direct role upon the real merits of
a tho question. Rut this will appear clearer on
r thcsecomi petition.
I Tito first petition being laid on the table,
Mr. Adams presented another immediately.
Mr. Glascock again demanded the question of
1 reception —and though an attempt was made
, by another Van Ruren man to deteat llic ob
s ject, lie succeeded in bringing tip the true
I question — “ Will the House receive the
, petition !’’ There was no further room lor
dodging; and many wore forced to do what
’ they would gladly have avoided. The vole

11 Hero, then, will he seen the true complex
ion at parties on this subject. Gut cf 137 who
• voted to receive tho petitions, there were 86 i
i, Van Ruren men, and every abolitionist in the 1
, House voted with them. They voted together, ,
„ as one man, on the right ofCongress to enter- j
tain these incendiary petitions ! While out of '
e 57 who voted in the negative, there are but i
• twenty-nine Van Boron men, all the rest beam I
Whigs. And further still, out of these Iwen- >
; ly-nirte there were twenty-three who had prevt- o
oualy (voted to lay the whole eiihjoct on the ta
ble, wind), while il was intended to screen <
them from a direct note, admitted the right of 1
Congress to entertain the petitions ! Us the 1
remaining sit, there were four who did not j
vote at all on the first petition ; and who, hud
they voted, would, in all probability,have voted
with the majority ; leaving hut TvVO MEM • '
IJERS in the entire Van Buren party in the ]
House of Representatives, who were icilling J
to say that Conga ess had not the right, and
ought not to rceivc these incendiary petitions |
of the fanatics !
What can be said in|extonuation of such con
duct as this, in a question so vitally affecting ,
the safely of the Southern people, and the
peace of the whole country 1 Let the South (
look at it, & see howtliey have been betrayed.
Ft is the universal sentiment on the South,that
Congress ought not, has no right, to entertain
petitions; and yet Southern members, in de
fiance of that sentiment, either attempt to
shift off the question,or vole openly in opposi
tion to the known wishes of their constitu
ents.
We cal! upon the people of Georgia, Vir
ginia, North Caroline, and other slaveholding
States, to note the conduct of their Repre
sentatives on this important question. What
is the attitude of Messrs. Pinckney, Drom
oooijß & Co., who at the last session laid the
foundation of the plot which they are now
compelled, however reluctantly, to disavow 1
Do not their votes now confirm the belief that
the movement at the last session looked only
to the interest of Mr. Van Buren, regardless
of the interests of the South 1 And how can
the Georgia members go home and face their
constituents—how can any Southern member
venture to assume the responsibility of thus
disregarding the feelings and opinions of the
people they represent! We invoke the dis
tricts from which they come to take this sub
ject into their most serious consideration. The
madness of party is prostrating every thing
that deserves to be cherished by the pcop’e ;
and, if not rebuked, will put not the constitu
tion only, hut liberty, and property, and life,
itself in jeopardy.
Contrasting the votes on the two petitions,
the conclusion is self-evident that the ■Btmth
ern Van Buren men were willing to admit, by
implication, that Congress ought to receive
the petitions ; and when forced to give a di
rect vote, they were compelled to say that Con
gress ought not to receive them. This is the
case with a large number of them, though not
all. The Georgia members went to the side
of Mr. Granger, smilingly ; while Messrs.
Pinckney, Drorngoole, and others, were forced
to fall back, and deny their course at the last
session. What must be thought of such a
party 1 We shall, in a day or two, present
tiie votes on those petitions in another point
of view so as to enable the people to sec the
matter in still clearer light.

ONE BAY LATER FROM ENGLAND,
By the packet ship South America, Caps. Bar
stow, from Liverpool, we have advices one day
later from England than were received by the ar
rival at Philadelphia. Our London papers are of
the 2Uth December, and Liverpool of the 21st.
Wo perceive that Prince Polignac—whose in
tended liberation from the prison at Ham we an
nounced a week before any other paper in this
city—was residing at the Clarendon, in Lon

from a visit to the King at Brighton.
The Liverpool Telegraph of the 21st of De
cember says that the turn-out at Oldham still
continues, and the rcfactory workmen are suffer

Mr. Robert S. Buchanan’s account of the wreck
of the ship Bristol is published in the Liverpool
papers.
From the Liverpool Courier, of Deo.‘2l.
The has this week been more firm in
most of its transactions than for some time past.
The quantity of business done has been greater,
and the terms, besides being more satisfactory for
the present, augur well for the future. Cottons
have exceeded their prices of last week, and a fair
demand has given confidence to the trade. Cali
coes have been somewhat better of sale, and a
slight advance on them has taken place. Fus
tians have experienced a similar improvement;
the homo, as well as the shipping*sales, have caus
ed an improvement in that branch. Checks,
ginghams, and colored goods, generally, have
maintained sale, which, throughout the winter
has been the most active of any branch of manu
tacturc. Silks arc moving a little for the spring
oidcrs, and give indications of wonted activity.
On the whole, wherever our inquiries are direct
ed, the answer is fraught with present satisfaction
and the hope of a better future. We mentioned
lasi week that a heavy failure had occuned in the
commercial world. We are sorry to add, that
yesterday it was publicly advertised that one ot
the partners in the concern, (a fiat in bankruptcy
having been issued,) was supposed to baue abscon
ded, carrying with him cash and bills amounting
to between £3,000 and £4,0u9. — Manchester

ing. the former were on the Blull'receivingcotton.
The flic was notjdiseovered until it had progressed 1

tion of all hands, together with the whole crew bf 1

all was in vain. Tho loss is a total one.
Hiom Pbsci of provisions.—lt is not long
since we exposed the iniquitieua system of up
holding the present high prices of provisions by
retailers, when, with the exception of Hour, al
most every article of consumption not luxuries,
bad fallen in price considerably.
Acting upon the principle that provisions once
up ought never to go down, the retailers have
taken the diminution of the prices of necessaries
as the fortune of war, from which they alone are
to derive any benefit.
The injustice as well as the evil tendency of
this selfish procedure, will be manifest to all who
give the subject a moment's consideration.
Some of the retailers maintain an imaginative
right to any benefit accruing from a variation of
prices of articles for consumption, upon the prin
ciple that the owner of a house is entitled to
whatever advance he may gain upon the increase
value of his purchase. A more childish, ridicu
lous, and preposterous position was never before
upheld.
The latter is a mere speculation—the former is
no speculation whatever: when to themselves
the prices of provisions are raised, they imme
diately raise the prices upon their customers, so
that the benefit is wholly on their side.
We are urged to these remarks by the appear
ance of a notice of a meeting to be held in the Ta
bernacle this evening, to take into consideration
this all important subject.
That a system so evil, so unrighteous, so fatal,
could long continue is not to be expected—ac
cordingly we find some public spirited men taking
up the subject, wc before mentioned. They put
forth the staitling facts, that in Paris bread is two
cents a pound, in London three, while here in
America it is six. They show the importation of
thousands of bushels of grain from foreign coun
tries into our ports, and also that our own pro
duce this year brought in the market exceeds that
of the last by several hundred thousand bush
els; and they then ask—VVhat becomes of it I
Where does it go 1 Is it consumed I Who eats
it ? In the distilleries of this city alone, it is said,
twelve hundred thousand bushels are annually
consumed, and in the breweries many thousands
more.
These assertions arc startling. The subject is
of the deepest interest to all classes, and we are
much pleased to see it taken up. Many able
spankers will be at the tabernacle this evening.
