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, # '!:■ v %:• %'• -.! -!S "f $$ V- y- y < CHEROKEE, Saturday, April 20, 1833. vi vt :•< >•< yr >■-. x-z m 4 ... x,z x„ x„ ya z,>... «x za /<x z<- /a >,<. fa z,< ?.< s.< ?,■< >,• >,»• ?.-• 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. IGNOK ANTIA- April, 10 1853. . . •.-:y; y< y. y: y< y;y;y;y; 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. CINCINNATUS. Democrat. 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 .” Here the gentleman, who had related (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. PROCLAMTION EXTRA. We find the following important document from the pen of the veteran prophet Lorenzo Dtitr, in the Norwich Republicaiv:— l o all rial and true Americans !
