And if the pre servation of the union, as Jeflbrfoit taught, depends upon tho sanctity of the. sovereignly of the Klntcs, Georgia may truly say that she i* llu: friend of ihe Union. Onec, twice, nay thrice, has she interposed, mi nded, the shield of her sovereignty, between llm Federal Go vernment and her right* ; with wlnil success let Carolina judge. Hut wo are nailed, is not this nullification ! And has not ynur legisla ture denounced thu odious thing ! Wo answer —you mny cull it what you please, we earn nut f„r the Maine, “ a rotiu, hy any other name would smell in sweet”—Only do not call it Carolina Nullification; i' is essentially differ ent', and it is C.nolinu Nollifiealinn that the I.egialature has denounced. Col. 11 a mill ,>n tells iis, that Carolina bus thn right lo nullify the lurifl, by any mean* that *t convention and her staio I,noiis! iiur -may direct.

And until such convention shall so decide, no stale has thp right •" judge of the propriety of the act of Nullification, or complain,' or resist—and that thu authorities of the Federal Govern- meiit enmiot use Iho constitutional means of enforcing such ncj.until such decision.shall be made. And lliul ibis process constitutes a peaceable ami constitutional remedy. In other words, there is warrant in tho eunslitu- linn, dtreet nr implied, for aitv of our stales to throw herself peaceably out of the union, as to any law she may choose lo nullify, nl the same limn as t,. nil other rights and liabilities, alto continue* a member of the confederacy. Now we deny that any such warrant, for any sorb constitution'll remedy, is to be found in the constitution—tliut any provision bv grant nr construction is in ulo in that instrument, for Nullification. If all departments of tho Go vernment, admit this cuuslilutibnnl remedv to lie in the stittoi.bv warrant ill the constitution, then indeed is thn Union a rope of sand ; then is nil federal legislation vain ; for then may each state, without reproach,and without fear, nullify all laws of Congress, ami become her own legislator, restrained only hy a conven tion; which convention tho constitution dues not authorise in this way to ho called—and which in Ibis wav never enn bn called.

Il is obvious enough tbnt tlm co-operation of Georgia has been uirjotisly desired by Cn- rulim, in her schemes uf nullification. And one of too mortifications of this distinguished member of the confederacy, lots resulted from Iter failure lo rally Iho whole South upon this question. Carolina ir.av ho nssttred by reference to the history ul our Indian relations, that if the time •hoitld conic, when action, in reference to llm Tnriflj is necessary,'Georgia, nil-hilled as she is in the classical beauties of Carolina republicanism, ".ill find some mean, some process, by which her rights may be respect- a:J; although ihu use of such mean, may put in jeopardy Uer federal membership. And should tbo time arrvo (G.ul grant it never may) when the Southern states should find it necessary, to ciinuso between unconditional eubnvrMon lo tyrannical exactions, and the integrity of our loved and glorious untnn ; Georgia will forget her privatoaud loenl wrongs Olid {daul herself in llm foremost rank of those who maintain the hull ruuse of iitvcrly.

On iho same day the counsel of the prisoners moved a rule nisi, setting out the inundate at length in the rule, calling*upon the Solicitor General to shew cause why tin? son! mandate should not b** ei tered upon the minutes of said Superior Court, am) al so why a habeas corpus should not issue to bring up the prisoners, that the Court might inquire into Ihc cause oftti^ir r Apt ion and detention ; and insisted that they hud n right to enter the tule upon the minutes of ihe Court as a matter of course The Solicitor Gen oral contended tliut tho Court should determine ti grant them the Rule Nisi, beforo they cnuhl place i on the minutes of the Court.

The Court reminded them that the only point before him whs whether the Court would < ntrrtuin their motion —not whether he would giant it.” t he .•'.b »ve condensed Recount of the proceedings of our Court, contains, wo believe, all that is of sufficient interest topublish on this subject. It wdl be seen at once ti-ot the Federal Judiciary and our own—that Georgia and the General Government, are. directly at issue. 'Ihe result, «o think, can he easily predicted Our State has before engaged in a conflict Rotucwhat similar—lius endured a Mtnilar trial; and past expcii •nee well assures us she will never recede from the grjmud (luUl** taken. Confident of the justice of her cause, her free people will never submit to the indigni ty which is offered thcnqfor though they love the Union, though they would willingly sacrifice blood and trea sure to maintain it against foreign oggression, they cannot but regard it ns a secondary consideration, when placed in opposition to the free exercise of their own State sovereignly. Tho Geneiul Government, then, must abandon the unjust pr< tension * set up for it by the Supreme Court, or we can no longer be the hap- pics! and m<»9t united people upon earth. Were it li d for ihe dilemma ir. which this decision places Ihc President of thn United Stales, we should much less regret it; but hound a« he ii to carry the legislative and judicial acts of the Government into r f. feet, without the riglit to judge ol their constitutional!, ty or their jnst tee, he is now in n situation of peculiar delicacy. And for all this we arc (as wevenly believe) indebted to the machinations of a party rpcklchs alike to truth, consistency, or Ihe welfare of the republic — lo that parly of whom Henry Cloy is thu champion and dictator.

Ilia I grand centre of the Senate chamber, it would hnvo deplorable, however, to witness the great indifference jbecii^for all the world like one of Henry Clay'sdinne y ft entertained by a large class of our fellow citizens on this question—a question involving principles so fundamental, and interests so dear to them. This in difference can be »nlv attributed to the blind and in- f.ituated course pursued by our Legislature. The members of that body, representing small aud sparsely populated counties, and a few of those representing large und populous ones, have uniformly opposed the interests of the people, by refusing to call a convention; d fr<>rn motives, though different, yet somewhat sim ilar. The former wished to retain their Ruats in the. Legislature at the expense of the latter; and t he latter not only to retain, at all hazards, their seals, but i* possible to secure for their party greater influence, and ultimate ascendancy, in the Legislature. The former, rue, sacrificed to selfish motives the interests of the State ; yet they hove at least this shadow of apof »gy for such a sacrifice—they represented the will of neir constituents, and returned among them not only justified, but applauded lor Mich cppoMtion. The hit ter sacrificed not only tho inteirsts of the people, hut the will of tlieir immediate constituents. And how is it that members of tiie Legislature, representatives of large and populous counties—counties paying a heavy tux to support tin? smalt counlv members, ns well ns their own. in the Legislatuic—how, we ask, can they, acknowledging the existence of the evil, and knowing the will of their constituent*, expect to be justified by pursuing such a course t Why, only by attempting, uiiti hut loo successfully, to hoodwink and blind their deluded followers. On returning home from the Leg islature, they cant hypocritically to the people about the merits and necessities <.f Reduction, and then in order to justify their opposition to it, nml save their popularity, make a very dough face—a raw head and bloody bones, of a Convention, and hold up the fright ful and appalling object, to alarm and terrify the sim ple, but hooost and credulous part of the community. Hot thu time is rapidlv approaching, when liglq and intelligence will penetrate the 'hick cloud of delusion, which ha* bT*cn thrown armin'! the people on thisFiib- iperches. We shall have a long and warm ses?ion, and 1 have no doubt it will result in a ciisis fearfully portentous to the South. Wc who represent the people of that quar ter should do it truly, arid wc should speak to them occasionally in such manner ns tn prepare them for any und for uli emergencies, und by no means to deceive them ; they hate tt right tn hear and that frequently from this great watch tower of the nation, how stands their interest, how rests their rights, what danger threatens their liberty and property ! I cay, and 1 soy it boldly, for office is nothing to me compared with du ty, that if Clay’s resolution is made the basis of Ihc fu ture Tarill’System, and I believe it will, the Southern people have one of two tilings to do, and they ought to he early informed of it that they may ho rnuking up their minds, either tamely to submit, in future, to their burthens and never more open their mouths in com plaint, for it will be utterly useless, or to strike lor freedom by the same method which their fore fat hern •lid when they manfully threw off the oppressions oi" Great Britain. Now choose ye whom ye will serve. Come to tin* • we must; there is no evading it, for the Northern and .

By the way, Mr. Ritchie informs us in his last Rich mond Enquire-, that his mind has undergone a change on this Mihjcct; he formerly denied that Mr. Jefferson was the author of the celebrated Kentucky resolutions of 1799. in which the doctrine of niillifieaiion is plainly laid down and strongly advocated. It seems tho ori ginal manuscript of those resolutions, in Mr. Jefferson** own hand writing, lias been discovered among his pa pers.
