prcdelectfops for rriiretl life, to the goo-1 ofliis
• ounlty; ami General Jackson never hailed, or
dallied to consult his own ease or his own pop
ularity, when the interest and safety of his
rontilry was at stake. He only inquires what
his duty is—what is required of him and he
pursues it, regardless of all consequence to
himself. But Ido not stand here either as the
apologist or the eulogist of General Jackson,
lie has his oversights, no doubt, as well as all
other men—he is not infallible, because he 1
is not a God, He is a man, and tlteiefore lia
ble to err.
11 is Proclamation has been assailed as the “Z»o
--som of destruction” to State rights. 11 has been [
denounced as the most villanous paper on j
earth, this bill only excepted. Perhaps some I
of its “doctrinal points” are liable to the caval
and criticism of metaphysical politicians
‘There is not a more pernicious animal in a sim
ple republic as ours is, or should be, than a pol
iticians who deals in attractions. He can re
fine and mystify upon the Constitution until he
makes it to mean any thing, every thing and
nothing. Such men can reason themselves out
of reason, and out of common sense to boot.
General Jacksun is notone of those hair split
ters—ho goes for practical utility. He is as [
General Washington was, brave, honest, and '
-devoid of mystery and dissimulation. His,'
Proclamation is of the same character. It ’
may have some minor defects. There are <
spots in the sun— there may be specks on the
' Proclamation. But in the aggregate, it is
sound and orthodox. Some of is reasoning
■may be liable to criticism, but its end and
at/n are good. Its objects are the overthrow
of Nullification and secession, the execution
of the laws and the preservation of the Un
ion. 1 believe its enemies concede that it is
a well written document. Yes, sir, it is a
whole piece of composition ; it is written with
•the light of a sun beam, and the power of a
thunderbolt, it has carried dismay into the
ranks of the disorganizers in all quarters ; and
lias blasted nullification like lightning from
Heaven. Sir, 1 will only add that without an >
ndheretice to the fundamental principles of,
the Proclamation, this Federal Government
cannot long exist; and "State Rights” them
selves will live only as a name. Sir, this Proc
lamation as little needed my defence, as Gener
nl Jackson dors my eulogy. 1 love and esteem
Jackson, as a brave, honest and patriotic man.
.1 honor him as the greatest living benefactor
of our common country. lam proud of him as
n Carolinian and "a son of the old Waxhaws.”
But I do not idolize him, and 1 have no motive
to flatter him. 1 have never sought, and never
shall seelc, office from him, either for mvself
or for any relative 1 have on earth. 1 have no
claims upon President Jackson ; he is under
no obligation to me. My feeble aid has been
given him to his elections, because 1 thought
the public good, and my duty to my country re- I
quired it of me. 1 have supported such of his
measures and recommendations as 1 thought to
he just and right ; 1 have opposed all that 1
considered wrong. 1 shall continue to de so to
the end of my political life. 1 shall detain the
House no longer, lam not fond of talking,
nor am I fond of those who do love to talk. It
is more tint province of old women than of men,
“lull grown men ;” and now, when it is so im
portant we should act, nothing is so injurious to
the public interest as long speeches.
In conclusion, sir. allow me to repeat that you
should pass this bill, whether the tariff bill passes
or not. If the tariff bill becomes a law and issat
isfactory to the nulifiers, this bill at most can do
no harm. Without it, there is no certainty that yonr
revenue laws or officers will bo respected. In short,
there will he no security in South Carolina, be the
fate of the Tariff what it may,

From the frequent solisitations which we notice
in the papers of the Troup party we now entertain
no doubt but that Troup will be a candidate at our
next election in opposition to Governor Lumpkin.
Oour readers may expect a few remarks upon this
subject when the real Editor returns ; and we trust
he will return in two or three weeks ; We think how- 1
ever, that there would not be a necessity for many I
solicitations, if it were not that Colonel Troup is
rather a closer calculater than some of his friends: 1
he looks forward to the result with the eye of a I
mathematician. Well may he hesitate to take the I
field again ; for we think that circumstances have 1
marvalously changed of late; equally as much as
Colonel Troup's opinion has changed since he
wrote his celebrated letter to the uulhfiers of South
Carolina.
We art) not a little amused al the pitiful subter
fuges rcsortad to by the nullifiers in order to les
sen the character of Governor Lumpkin with the
people of Georgia : Their monstrous absurdities,
LwA" M"—» -u._— • . ■ it*, i
Boundiug in our ear«, have ceased to offend, and
now serve only as matter of amusement. With
equal reason, and with equal sense, they heap alike.
Unmerited abuse upon the one, and applause up
on the other
But rally to your standard. Oh ye Editors of I
the Federal Union! for a charge is made against
our Governor which you will find difficult to avert :
even the metaphysical subtilty of Calhoun himself
would not be sufficient for the task. Oil he is lai
len ! he is fallen ! never more to ri«e, never more
lobe numbered among the lofty sons of Georgia.
What has ho done ? Oh ! it is too horrible to tell.
1 say what has lie done ? he has turned Woorces- ,
ter and Butler, two of the ministers of the Holy
Gospel, out of the Penitentiary! yes. he has turned i
them loose even loose upon f.'.'O community ! and
they are now, in all probability, preachi. , '5 ’he Gospel
to a lost and ruined world ! ••reasoning of righteous
ness, temporance and a judgement to conic’’! com
manding all men every where to repent ; and per
suading the heathen io turn from their darkness
unto the marvelous light of the Gospel ! And
what bad they done ! Oh ! it is too horrible to
tell. I say what had they done ? nnrabile dictu !
they concured in sentiment with the judges of the
supreme court ! for which they ought still to be
bound down with fetters of brass, and their iron
chains all spattered with blood ought still to be
clanking about their naked feet. And these men,
oh! horrible to tell! Governor Lumpkin has
turned loose, even loose upon the community !
oh! his entne js rank! "it smells to Heaven" L
"Tell it not in Gall;, publish it not in thfi streets
of Askelon,’’ for the honor, the reputation, the dig
nity of our Governor, and with him that of our be
loved State, is gone forever. Nothing but the al
mighty arm of Troup, "who is a troop in aimself”
which is able to save us “amidst the wreck of mat
ter, and the crush of worlds” can rescue us from
this dilemma, and restore to us the honor and dig
nity of our beloved, but now degraded State.
The above remarks have been drawn from us by
a scurrilous article which appeared in the last num- j
' her of the (G. a.) Times, signed "a Georgian |
but we rather incline to believe that he is no Geor
gian, but some British emissary sent over from
England to assist the Nullifiers in abusing our
' public officers, and sowing the seeds of discord
I and disunion amongst the people. Do, good Geor-
I gian, dip your pen in gall and abuse us a little :
| Wc should like to merit your abuse : we should
conclude, at once, that we were on our way to I
fame : ami would soon be on a level with General j
Jackson, or Governor Lumpkin. But for ’s j
sake do not prase us! nothig could more effectual-1
ly damp our pride, and level us in the very dust of!
humility. No, we beseech you ! we would shun j
it as we would shun the cholera; We want no {
praise from your pestiferous breath.
For the Cherokee Intelligencer,
AN EASY METHOD OF ACQUIRING POPULARITY. |
As politicks are the reigning topic of the day, >
and how to make ones self popular is the chief study |
of all aspiring men, I presume that any intelli-1
gence upon these important subjects will be very nc- j
ceptablc to the public, and especially to those who :
seek popularity. I feel desirous to communicate !
what little knowledge I possess, which is the result’
of experience, to all those who may like myself de-'
sire popularity, and who may, like myself be des
titute of those quallilications which have been hith
erto, indispensibly necessary to its acquirement, to
wit, learning, smartness and a turn to please men.
The plan which I have chalked out for myself and
which I confidently recommend to all those who
may be in similar circumstances is this, simply this.
; Go against lawyers and all learned men. but par
, ticuiarly against lawyers. There is such a preju
dice existing in the minds of the great mass of the
people against this class of men, that 1 think one
could not make a surer step towards popularity
than boldly to declare himself an enemy to them.
Do they not make laws to suit themselves ? do
they not frame statutes difficult to be understood,
■ and entirely bsyond the comprehension of the com
, mon people, so as to get them into difficulties that
they may reap the profits of their contentions ?
yes, the contentions of the people are gain, as
the death of the people is the Doctors harvest: these
are the truths which form the just foundation of i
that extensive prejudice above alluded to. It is !
not the tariff that oppresses us, but the craft and
subtilty of learned men, at the head of which stand
the lawyers. It has been such men as these in all
ages of the world that have enslaved the people.
While honest men who make no pretentions to
: learning or smartness are laboring for the common
benefit of mankind, these idle fellows are laying
plans to reap the benefits of their labor. They fill
the fat offices of the country; and whose moneyjdo
they receive? the peoples money: and how do they
get it? nay, this is a mystery; this is the craft and
subtilty that we cannot understand. It is sufficient
for us to know that ours is the labor and theirs aie
the profits. Now all that is necessary is, that the
people he fully apprized of these things, and they
will suddenly put down these men, and place oth
ers in their stead who are not capable of ensnaring
the people, but are plain, honest, simple and illit
erate men, entirely void of stratagem. I long to
see the time when learning shall be made a capital
objection: when no lawyer or other learned man
shall be allowed to hold any office of honor trust or
profit, within the United Slates. Then should the
people be tree indeed : Remember the example of
the illustrious Jackcade who would have freed his
people from the yoke of bondage if it had not been
for the treachery of his followers. This illustrious
man, whose memory ought to be revered to the la
test generations, saw clearly what I now see, that
learning is the bane of the world, and an enemy to
the liberties of mankind ; but he failed as other
great men have failed in great attempts, because
the eyes of the people were blinded. Perhaps some
learned jurist may take it upon himself to show
that the reasons which I have advanced are false,
and the facts which 1 have slat’d arc not true : .
and this, no doubt, he will be able to do: for it is
his profession to make that which is reasonable ap
pear unreasonable', and that which is true appear
false. No doubt he will say that Cicero was a
lawyer, the father of latin eloquence, the great de
fender of his countries rights, and of the liberties
us the people; and that before the enemies of
Rome could succeed in destroying the Govern
ment. it building themselves up upon its rums, they
found it necessary first to destroy Cicero. That
the illustrious William Pitt, the great champion of
the American cause in England, was a lawyer:
j That Patrick Henry, who gave the first kick to the
ball of the revolution which finally brought about
’ the glorious liberty of America, was a lawyei : That
1 Andrew Jackson, who by his own merit, has brought
himself to the highest pinacle of earthly honor, and
! spread his fame to the utmost bounds of the earth,
I is a lawyer: That a great many of those who sign
ed the declaration of independence were lawyers :
' And fiinally he may say that the celebrated statute
of 1321, "entitled an act the more effectually to
quiet and protect the possession of personal prop
erty, andto prevent taking possession thereof by
fraud or violence" which has done more towards
preventing contention and law suits among the
people than anv other statute that ever was passed,
I a" , :?• ‘ ' 1 —Jw
’ arguments ot like kind will have noweight with
those who are acquainted wtih their sophistry. If a
j Lawyer is rich, how did he get his riches ? by ta
' king fees on both sides, and by grinding the face
ot the poor. Is he poor ? what is the reason of it?
the people have no confidence in him, and will not
| trust theii business in his bands, and therefore he
is poor. Is he a young attorney ? [no doubt he
will say that it is perfectly clear that every thing
must have a beginning, and every man must be once
young before he is old : but this will not do,] quote
the follow ing definition from the modern dictionary
I and throw him into contempt at once, " Young at-
I torncy, a useless member of society, who often
goes where he has no business to be, because he
i has no business where he ought to be." By
sufficiently promulging these things wemay
finally succeed in opening the eyes of the people,
and in putting down this formidable profession:
And when we have fairly got the power, we will
deprive them ot their privileges; we will take away
thei. r L'* * ec ’ tncrease their poll tax, make null
and void contracts between them and their cli
ents, onlv at the potion of the latter, ami deprive
them of the privilege of ho.'ding a seat in the legis
lature. Finally we will excite J* l © people more
powerfully against this class ol men, . M ud against
learned men ol every description ; and we who
are ignorant and unlearned, will ride into power:
and this is nothing but right, for we are the major
ity and ought to govern.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Mr. Editor :
j Permit me call the attention of the Demo
' crat, to that aristocratic feature, in our consti
! tution, which requires a property qualification,
I to render a citizen eligible to a seat in the State
Legislature. 1 doubt whether more than half
the free white citizens of Georgia are not total- I
ly debated from becoming sitting members of
the legislature, for lack of property alone. A
citizen may be adorned withall the civic virtues,
he may have served his country in war—fore- 1
most in attack, and, last, in retreat, he may sus
. tain an unsullid moral character, and possess
talents of a superior order, lie may bee well
qualified to serve his fellow citizens in a legisla
tive capasity, and he may receive ever so great
a majority, or even a unanimity of votes in his
county ; yet, if he be poor, if he do not pos
sess hundreds or a thousand dollars, he is dis
qualified by the constitution from taking a seat
in the legislative Hall. He is denied the rights
of legislation, in the country, in which he is an
ornament, and under whose laws lie lives! Is
that democratic ? is it republican ? Is pov
erty a crime, a crime that it must be puniehed
with disfranchisement ? Poverty may be a
misfortune, but is it an offence—is it crimin
al I
Poor men of Georgia, men not worth $250,
or SIOOO, awake. Look at the constitution of
the state, read it. None of you are free citi
zens, possessing equal privileges with your more
wealthy neighbor. Your wealthy neighbor if
elected, can serve in the legislature—has the
high privilege of a freeman, to make the laws
under which he lives—which privilege, poor
man, you have not. Where is the justice, that
the poor should have no voice, in making the I
laws, under which they live ? I challenge all ;
the aristocracy, that tyrannizes over mankind :
to produce an argument against the right of the
poor to legislate, that would not be equally per
tinent against the poor man’s rights to vote.
Poor man, now is a favorable time to make
your influence felt, in ’he Slate. A convention
will soon assemble, which will have power to
; remodle the whole subject of representation.
) On the first Monday in next month delegates
are to be elected. Vote for no man who will
■ not lend his full influence to abolish this aris
tocratic feature of the constitution. Give poor
candidates a preference on your tickets. You
can place a double reliance on poor men, In
terest is, in their case, added to principle.
It is time—it is more than time—the poor
should arouse themselves to a full sense of the
indignity thev suffer. How have we lain so
long idle? Why have we permitted ourselves
to be legislated for, as if we were slaves, brutes
or inanimate objects ? Lek us unfurl the banner
of “equal rights” to the breeze. We have reas
on, justice and violated right, on our side ; we
have an honest cause at heart, and we have an
irresistable weapon in our hands—the elective |
franchise. Let us never rest till the equat right I
of legislation be added to the right of common
sufferagc.

A MARVELLOUS STORY
I wasjbred up in a dislike of the marvellous
or the stupid wonderful, as my uncle called it. I
must relate an anecdote in point. Gentlemen
j were dining together, and relating their travel- i
ling adventures; and one of them dealt so much I
in the marvellous that it induced another to
to give him a lesson.
“I was once,” engaged in a skirmishing par
ty in America; I advanced too far, was separa-
I ted from my friends, and saw three Indians in
pursuit of me: the horrors of the tomahawk in
the hand of angry savages, took possession ol
■my mind. I considered for a moment what
was to be done; most of us love life, and mine
was both precious and useful to my family; I
was swift of foot and fear added to my speed.
After looking back, for the country was an
open one, I at length perceived that one of my
enemies had outrun the others and the well
known saying of divide and conquer, occurring
to me 1 slackened my speed and allowed him
| to come up, we engaged in mutual fury, I hope
i none here, bowing to his auditors, will doubt
the result ; in a few minutes he lay a corpse
I at my feet, in this short space of time the two
Indians had advanced upon me, so I took again
to my heels—not from cowardice, I can in truth
declar—ebut with the hope of reaching a neigh
boring wood where I knew dwelt a tribe frendly
to ’he English: this hope however, I was forced
I to give up; for, on looking back, I saw one of my
pursurers far befoie the other. I waited for j
him, recovering my almost txhausted breath, |
and soon this Indian shared the fate of the first.
,1 hid now onlv ana enemv to deni with ; but 1 ,
left fatigued, and being near the wood, I was
more desirous to save my own life than to de- .
stroy another of my fellow-creatures. 1 plainly
perceived smoke curling up among the trees, I
redoubled my speed, 1 prayed to heaven, 1 felt
' assurd my prayres would be granted—but at this
moment the veil of the Indian’s voice sounded
in my ears ; 1 even thought 1 felt his warm
breath—there was no choice—l turned round

(lie wonderful stories at first, grew impatient
passed his endurance, he called out, “well sir, ;
and you killed him also?”—“No sir, he killed
me.”- Southern Recorder.

WOUNDS.
The usual application in India to a fresh
wound is slacked lime. It is also used for

water, and any kind of oile, made into thin

The good citizens of our young sister, Indiana,
are pretty generally known throughout the West
fby the singular appellative of Hooshers. The fol

hospitality of a "buck eye cabin,” while our gallant
I steed stood by the “sapliu” and lhe sugar trough”

i Suppose in riding through the West,
A stianger found a "Hoosher’s nest,”
In other words a buck eve cabin,

And to a steady sapling tied ;
Then having stripped lhe saddle off,
He fed him in a sugar trough.
The stranger stooped to enter in ;
The entrance closing with a pin ;
And manifested strong desire
To seal him by the log heap fire,
Where half a dozen “Hoosheroons,”
With mush and milk, tin cups ana spoons ; ’
White heads, bare feet, and dirty faces.

; niv ctsal satisfaction. 'I he frontispiece, respect-
I ung the Queen of Belgium, is, at this juncture, pe
i culiary appropriate, and has much merit as a pic
; ture. Ihe whole length of Napoleon is one of the
! specimines ot that style of engraving, which has
ever been presented to the public, and reflects
high credit on the artist, Mr. Lubbren. The Mer
maid of Marlin Meer, though of a different kind, is
no less excellent. Lord Byron’s beautiful stanzas
" I here is none of beautie’s daughters,” set to
music by an eminent composer, will be found in
this number. L. A. Godey & Co- take this op
